Commentary on the Revelation: A Commentary Based on a Study of Twenty-Four Psychic Discourses

This book presents the material found in the book of Revelations not as a timeline for profetic end-times filled with horror, devastation, punishment, and salvation of the elect, but rather it treats the symbology and actions of Revelations as a road map of the changes taking place in the individual's physical, emotional, mental and spititual bodies during a person's process of spiritual "enlightenment". For example, the opening of the "seals" has to do with the opening of each of the 7 Chakras and the accompanying experiences as each chakra comes into fullness; the 12 Elders are the 12 cranial nerves, etc. The book systematically takes the chapters of Revelations and explains the process taking place in this unique manner. The process described by Cayce is amazingly parallel to the process described in the Hindu spiritual literature. When reading Cayce's material it is important to remember that Cayce's knowledge-base (mind/English language) did not possess the vocabulary to describe these altered estates of consciousness, and had to rely on the symbols familiar to Cayce. Sanskrit, unlike the English language, posseses voluminous terminology that describe the most minute differences in the various altered states of consciousness. This copious vocabulary reservoir allows individuals to communicate ideas and experiences that would be very difficult to describe to those who have not had similar experiences. I have studied this book in a group setting, and can honestly say it is a book for "the few". To those who can "understand" its message it is priceless.

A group analyzed Cayce's comments on The Revelation to John. They asked Cayce "to give... an interpreation... explaining the general plan and theme, the significance.... and explanations of the symbols... as will make this book of personal value .... to awaken and develop the inner life" To approach the living God, one must be prepared and go humbly as Uzza found out and Jesus taught in the lesson of the self-righteous Pharisee and the repentant tax collector. Physical, mental and spiritual aspects are discussed. The Revelation, like the rest of the Bible, is best when read continually. Overtime growth takes place. While not the Revelation itself, this may help many better understand it and move more in the way God would have us.

A curse from God from the Book of Revelation? You've got to be kidding! It's incredible how stupid and superstitious so many people are. There are endless debates and opinions regarding the TRUE meaning and interpretation of the Bible. Study the real history of its origins and you'll see why so many are confused. The word of God? Baloney! If you have any brain you'll sidestep all the Christian blather and hypocrisy and read as much of Cayce as you can get. You'll get a much clearer and compassionate picture of the Cosmos and your place in it than you can get from any TV preacher. It wasn't long ago that good Christians would have burned Cayce at the stake for what he spoke. Now, that is something that our oh so wonderful King George would deserve, but not a humble psychic. Wake up sheeple, it IS the hour of the time. Peace be with you.

I was at first shocked when I saw that a reviewer of this book rated it with only one star. Then I read the review and knew why. This book is not for the closed minded or for those who have a deeply embedded fear of looking at things another way than they have been taught all their lives.However, for the sincere seeker and open-minded, this book is truly wonderful! Finally something that makes the Book of Revelations make sense -- and in a way that encourages and challenges the reader to take responsibility for his or her own understanding. It is all to easy to conceive of all darkness and evil being only from some "outside devil." It takes inner courage and sincerity to look at ourselves and see that we have the entire "war" of Dark and Light within our own selves!The only mistake Edgar Cayce made here was by being ahead of his time. If you are only willing to interpret the Bible that way your Sunday School teacher taught you, I will concede that this book is not for you.For myself, I found it enlightening and profound!
