A.R.E Meeting for 10/13/09

Leader: Sylvia
Reader: Nancy

We covered three sections in "The Open Door" chapter. We have one section left to finish the chapter: "The Kingdom of the Father."

For our weekly experiment:

Look at life as being essentially good. Make choices each day for a week that reflect your belief that God is good and has as His deepest desire that good things would come to you. Record the decisions that you make from this point of view.

The Incarnations of Jesus Christ according to EDGAR CAYCE

The following was posted on a blog called the Homeless Nation. There is more to this article about the incarnations and more on the life of Christ.

The Incarnations of Jesus Christ:

AMILIUS was the first expression of Divine Mind (the logos)the Keeper of UNIVERSAL KNOWLEDGE; the Christ soul before his incarnation into a physical body (corresponding to Genesis 1); the entity that Cayce described living in the lost civilization of Atlantis who redirected the process of human evolution by creating a more appropriate physical form for the influx of souls to incarnate into rather than incarnating into the ape-like human form which souls had entangled themselves in.

ADAM was the first "son of man" and "son of God"; the Christ soul after his incarnation into a physical body (corresponding to Genesis 2).

ENOCH was the antideluvian patriarch who journeyed to heaven to receive mysteries...later transform to ARCHANGEL METATRON.

HERMES, also known as THOTH, he was also the last KING of ATLANTIS, later he move to EGYPT, he was the architect of the Great Pyramid and the sage who began the Hermetic tradition.

MELCHIZEDEK was the mystical high priest and king of Salem (ancient Jerusalem).

JOSEPH was the son of Jacob who became the Prince of Egypt.

JOSHUA was the warrior who led the Israelites into the Promised Land.

ASAPH was the music director and seer who served under David and Solomon.

JESHUA was the high priest who helped organize the return from exile and the rebuilding of the temple (as recounted in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah) and who is claimed by Cayce to have compiled and translated the books of the Bible.

ZEND, also spelled "Zen", "Zan", "Sen", or "San," was the father of Zoroaster who wrote the Zend Avesta and founded the religion Zoroastrianism

JESUS was the man who attained complete "at-one-ment" as the divine-human unity known as "the Christ"

Edgar Cayce Diet

At our last meeting the subject of the Edgar Cayce diet came up, and what foods should or should not be eaten. According to Cayce, 80% of our diet should consist of alkaline-producing foods and the other 20% could be acid producing. The A.R.E has an online sheet that shows which foods fall into what categories.

In summary: Alkaline-Forming Foods (80% of the daily diet should contain these foods):
• All vegetables except dried beans, lentils, asparagus tips, and garbanzos.
• All fresh fruits except cranberries, plums, olives, prunes, and blueberries (preserves and canned fruits are usually acid-forming).
• Almonds, chestnuts, Brazil nuts, and hazelnuts.

Acid-Forming Foods (20 % of the daily diet should contain these foods):
• All meats except beef juice and bone meal.
• All grains, cereals, and bakery products except for soybeans.
• All dairy except buttermilk, yogurt, raw milk and whey.
• Peanuts, pecans, and walnuts.

Certain food combinations are difficult to digest and may cause problems in the digestive system. Here is a brief list of food combinations to avoid:
• Two or more starchy foods at the same meal.
• Sugary foods and starchy foods.
• Milk and citrus fruit or juice.
• Cereals and citrus fruit or juice.
• Large quantities of starchy foods with meat or cheese.
• Coffee with milk or cream.
• Raw apples with other foods.

Booth # 3 - ROBERT BLOND, Edgar Cayce Style Past Life Readings

I offer thorough past life readings that are of significance to present circumstances in one's life. These are done from the Akashic Records within the universal sub-conscious mind, similar to Edgar Cayce readings. These readings can aid you in having a deeper understanding of yourself and ways to create harmony in your life. www.journeybooks.com Sedalia CO 303-688-8276

A.R.E. Meeting for 10/05/09

Leader: Sylvia
Reader: Greg

We began the chapter on "The Open Door." We read two sections and are ready to start on the one titled "How to Open the Door."

For our experiment:

Choose and write down something in your life that seems like a barrier to you (e.g., a problem in a relationship, a difficulty in meditation). Write down a constructive purpose which that barrier is serving (e.g., it is making me work hard on improving that relationship instead of taking it for granted; through this difficulty a particular positive quality is being awakened in me). During the week look for and respond to doorways that may open that barrier. Do not expect the barrier or difficulty to suddenly disappear, but be attentive to the ways in which the Christ Spirit is speaking to you through this situation. Keep a record of your experiences.

Example:

Barrier: I don't seem to be getting anywhere in meditation.

Purpose the barrier serves: Helps me to awaken the qualities of patience and persistence within myself.

Doorways: I became aware that what the Christ asks of me is to let go and let Him do the work in my meditations.
