Diary of a 12-year-old psychic boy

[@grey8940]

Awesome! that was very interesting. Thank you.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Thanks Grey8940: My next book review is about a 15-year-old boy who committed suicide. His mother, being psychic, could communicate with him from the other side. The book describes what he experienced in death and the acclimation into the astral world. Fascinating stuff!

Hello John. Good to see you again. Watching from Missouri.

[@brenwyckoff]

Terrific retelling of a fascinating book!! A worthy book to read and contemplate!!! Thank you for adding the AI images!! Enjoyed the book several years ago and will likely read it again soon~ ♥

[@nowhereman9463]

Thanx John. Very interesting.🙂

[@lyndapatterson1111]

Interesting. HE seemed to be able to help others more than himself with the gifts. The gifts and the experiences were a choice to learn from. Becoming a Spiritualist by Gordon H Burroughs published by Lilydale Press seems to embody a lot of the Edgar Cayce concepts. Thank you for the longer dive into the material.

Amazing story John. I especially found the part about the mansion having residual energy/vibrations left over from the Uncle very intriguing. And also how the grandfather said " things are working over here to try to improve that for you " I wonder how all that works on the other side. Is it possible that the uncles soul, while on the other side was still negative and was affecting the house, and those on the other side were trying to get the man to think differently in order to alleviate the bad vibes in our physical world. ???

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Hey Shadowman: I got the impression that the "work on the other side" was not trying to change the uncle but was instead trying to guide conditions so that the boy could live with Mr. P and continue to be tutored by him, which happened.

John, I love this video, the information and how it relates to what Cayce taught. I've had experiences beyond, on and off throughout my life and it took me a long time to integrate those experiences. These videos really help me feel like I'm normal. ☺️

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Hi TrentSmithJangoStudios: Thanks for the kind words about our new "book review" selections. I grew up in a house full of "readers" and remember asking my mother about The Boy Who Saw True. While her description of it interested me (I was around 10 then), I did not read it until now as our first foray into book reviews. I'm finishing up Dr. George Ritchie's NDE (near-death experience) book, Return From Tomorrow. I was lucky to spend a whole day with him in the 1980s; he is the consummate Southern gentleman. His story is quite compelling and explains much about life on the other side. I should have the video ready for air around the first weekend in December.

[@TrentSmithJangoStudios]

@edgarcaycearizona67 That would be great. ❤️

[@katssketches1118]

Loved this! Please read us something else 😊

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

There is already another book review, "Return From Tomorrow," based on Dr. George Ritchey's near-death experience. kzbin.info/www/bejne/faWcZKF_ZsynmLM The current book we're working on is entitled Stephen Lives. It is the story of a 15-year-old boy who committed suicide and communicated a great deal with his psychic mother about his experiences on the other side.

I read the book and absolutely Loved it. ❤

[@semrabahcivan8627]

During deep sleep I am able to see what will come on reality too, since I am a little but now I’m more opened up, specially after I have had NDE during abdominal operation, seing very clearly visions, 25 years wrote down every vision they are very important. They told me I am sleeping psychic too.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Hi @semrabahcivan8627: We are all psychic but have lost touch with it. How do we decide to use the psychic abilities as we recover them? Unless we have the correct intent behind them, we will likely "forget" again.

[@AbelisI]

Hopefully you can answer this? Lot of material on this subject don't answer this. Is reincarnation as a different race possible. There is a glimpse of this at 19:00. Boy has past life in Africa. Also does Cayce material mention this? Great video by the way.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Hi Abelisl: Good question! Cayce's readings do confirm we souls reincarnate into the different races. Which races we incarnate into depends on what we need for our greatest soul growth.

[@aSinnerMan7]

The answer to the question at 32:15 is not satisfactory at all. The soul might know the past life connections but it doesn't help me right here right now.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

Hi aSinnerMan7: The answer you seek is probably the difference between the online game analogy and the relationship between the soul and the soul's "conscious" mind. An avatar cannot become consciously aware of its connection to the "gamer." Unlike video games, our goal is to keep our higher mind in touch with our conscious/human mind so we aren't unclear why we are here on earth. This is done through meditation and listening to what is commonly called "the still, small voice within." Once that soul-mind/human-mind connection is established, our frustration at not having all the answers is resolved. If you don't believe that is possible, then life will continue to be "unsatisfactory."

[@aSinnerMan7]

@@edgarcaycearizona67 establishing the soul-mind/human-mind connection is possible but doesn't happen for most people in most lifetimes. The problem is structural. Knowing that its possible doesn't resolve anything.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

@@aSinnerMan7 Agreed! It takes desire and persistence toward opening that line of communication to work. Most do not want to work that hard.

And so was this thing written by Neville Armstrong-the guy who published it? That’s what it says on Wikipedia under the book title. And if that’s the case I’m not putting him down-that seems a very insightful book with a lot of overlay with the Cayce cosmology. And my own favorite non-Cayce metaphysical book? “A Dweller On Two Planets”. Read it when I was 20-now 3 1/2 decades ago. After I read the thing I dug through my mother’s old 1960s “Individual Reference File” from the ARE-along with what ARE Press books I was able to purchase-and tried finding areas where the readings diverged from the overall message of Dweller. And the fact is there simply weren’t too many which did. That’s not to say they were written by the same author, but rather, they convey the same reality. And that’s what any religion is-it is a belief system which, after a while, ceases to be your “beliefs” and starts to be what you consider as just plain “real”. Nobody sane goes around telling people they “believe” water is wet, or the sky is blue, or that gravity makes things fall down. Rather, this is accepted as common sense-it is “reality”, and persons who have problems with that tend to be schizophrenic. And what did I do to bring about the many frustrations I’ve had in this life? To this day I believe I am the reincarnation of that wretched high priest at the end of Dweller-the guy who cuts out the heart of the woman who was Princess Anzimee. Does it because she’s complaining about his animal sacrifices, and so he sacrifices her instead: “When Death, the conqueror of all mortals, garnered his harvest in Atl, these souls, which had sown sin and grown tares. were reaped by the Great Reaper, and the tares were sown with the good wheat when next those souls reincarnated. And they have had to glean and uproot as they could, and so must continue to tear up the evil weeds till every one be uprooted. Then will they have atoned unto God.” I thought of that quote about a month ago when I was getting the last of my upper molars extracted at the dentist’s. There was this picture on the wall in front of the chair I was lying in-it was of a wild overgrown meadow under a dreary sky. That’s been my life these 56 years-my grand achievement being little more than yanking up all my antisocial compulsions, simultaneously learning about Jesus and my need to rely more on him. But that’s who I was. Ruler of an entire nation-both the civil and the religious aspects of it. My every word was law. Now…an obscure and mostly penniless truck driver, frequently out of work-and then used like a piece of machinery when I find jobs. But…I do regularly pray. And regularly attend my local Catholic parish. And so, yeah, I’m expecting things to turn around for me. But yeah-Dweller on Two Planets. It was rewritten by Guy Ballard-just this charlatan who’d take whatever weird esoteric books he could find, then rewrite the things making himself the main character. He created the “I AM Activity” mail-order cult in the 1930s and 40s-started calling himself “Godfrey Ray King”, got pictures of his wife and himself all dressed up in their 1940’s spaceman-looking tuxedos. Then he got sued for mail fraud. Also in the 1940s, two fellows out in Chicago decided they were going to channel Dweller’s spiritual author (“Phylos the Thibetan”) and do a sequel-“An Earth Dweller’s Return”. Dr. Robert Stelle and…crap, forgot the other’s name. “Howard John Zitko”-former Methodist minister. And so they did their channeling, then rewrote the thing-and then about 70 years later I finally read it. Not much. I mean, it’s interesting they discovered the amanuensis of Dweller was, in fact, the reincarnated soul of Mainin the Sorcerer, but after that they get into conjecture and timelines that mix up the original characters and don’t really make any sense. Nonetheless, the formed their own mail-order cult out of the thing-the “Lemurian Fellowship”. And who else was involved in that. Elizabeth Clare Prophet. I believe she was raised under parents who followed the I AM Activity thing. That, and after she formed that Summit Lighthouse with Mark Prophet and he kicked the bucket-and she took over the operation-she finally read Dweller herself and started referencing it in her lectures. You can see some video on KZbin where she’s doing a group incantation to “Rai Ernon”. And she was alive when I first read Dweller. 1988 is when I read it. I think it would have been funny to meet up with her then and tell her exactly who I was in that book. Although at the time I had serious difficulty accepting that about myself. Everyone wants to see themselves as the reincarnation of someone good-and I may have been a good person here and there in my chain of lifetimes. But in my last dominant one I was utterly rotten. Like Gene Simmons of KISS. I even gravitated to that band back in the 1970s. This guy who loves a spotlight, yet doesn’t really have any talent-so he dresses himself up as a demon and shocks people. Only in my case I actually killed someone. Killed the “flower of womanhood” of my nation. And when you do something like that you’re not exactly popular with the ladies in the next lifetime. I know from rather bitter experience. And how do I know I was exactly that high priest? Or, rather, how do I know I wasn’t just somebody “like him”? I don’t. I mean, that’s always the problem with surmising “who one once was”-you might not get the exact person dead-on. Thing is, I grew up with that book one my bedroom bookshelf-it’s one of the first things I saw in this life. My father had purchased it, read it, thought it was silly and never touched it again. I finally read it after my first year of college. Then I burned that copy-didn’t like how it was affecting me. But it would pop up at weird places. The first time I visited the ARE it was sitting on top of a pile of books on the first table of their bookstore. Same 1950 blue-cover “Border Publishing” version with the 2 planets drawn on it. Popped up again right after I had my first fight with my dad and he kicked me out of the house in 1995-first thing I saw going through a used bookstore with a girlfriend before she dumped me. Gradually I accepted it was my karma to understand the cosmology of that book, as well as the Cayce readings. And when I did accept as much that was a weirdly serene feeling. 21 years after my first reading of it-I was back home at the time, meditating in the bathroom while finally getting around to reading “An Earth Dweller’s Return”, and my mind just wandered into some bizarre vision of being in India-like in Old Calcutta with a bunch of mendicant sadhus on the side of the road. And then suddenly one of these old sadhus calls out to me in perfect English, “You killed Anzimee! You killed Anzimee!” And I’m like trying to get the mother f’er to shut up, as it’s embarrassing-it’s a crowded area and I might not be the only person who speaks English. Oh, but only he and me would know who “Anzimee” is. And then peacefulness. This, because even though I now live in an era full of all sorts of powerful evil men, I’m not one of them-I’m done with that experience. But yeah, the amanuensis of Dweller-Frederick S. Oliver-was the reincarnation of the first murderous high priest, “Mainin”. I’m the reincarnation of the second murderous high priest. His name wasn’t given. PS-yes I know what Cayce said about the warning at the end of Dweller. Reading 282-5. “Choose thou.”

I was about to respond with a much longer post, but your last sentence covered it! (smiles)

[@freddietz96]

@@edgarcaycearizona67 If you know the book you now know a person in it. And my god, was that ever hard to accept about myself. I truly hated that character when I first came across him, and I thought that book may have been written by a demon to get me to kill myself (yet pointless for a demon to write an entire novel for that purpose, as by age 20 I was already toying with suicide). Book III, Chap IV, for anyone looking up “Dweller on Two Planets” on Sacred-Texts. And I could have written that much on here a year ago, or two years ago, but I’m not sure it’s altogether helpful to explain to people “who I was”. Or-I don’t know-maybe it is. Shows the length of time it might take to discern a past life. And it’s funny to think about it now about the upbringing I actually endured in this life, as it was packed with eccentrics and loonies. 1970s and 1980s Baltimore-and with a bipolar alcoholic musician for a dad-WWII-era guy (even though I’m gen-x). And it’s funny to talk about Elizabeth Clare Prophet, as she’d do these long incantations with her cult talking about how much she hated rock stars-just denouncing the rock stars of her day, including Van Halen. Well, even though I often hated my dad, as a gifted musician and alcoholic he was “like Van Halen”-like a WWII saxophone-playing Van Halen. And so I loved all Van Halen’s crap, and there’s Prophet in her videos badmouthing the man for his skills. Van Halen and the mean streets of Baltimore-and that’s exactly where I wound up after he kicked me out of the house. Waverly ghetto, down by where the old Memorial Stadium used to be. All black, yet I’m white-and in the middle of the 1990s crack cocaine epidemic. Oh-and during the OJ Simpson trial. Right when all the blacks were going to riot if he lost. And then I had to stop thinking that way in order to develop a more Christian conscience after I left B-more. But I kind of like thinking that way-all that “electricity”. And then…prison. Three years on felony assault. Maryland State system-Eastern Correctional Institution next to the Chesapeake Bay, and then over to Jessup-next to the old Maryland House of Correction before it was torn down (I was part of the inmate crew taking out the old lockers and bunks). And yes, the House of Correction was haunted-it had inmates buried on its grounds. You’d be hearing all sorts of foot traffic on the floor above, thinking its your crew-mates, then get up there and it’s deserted. I guess it has entertainment value on some level. The Maker is forgiving. That’s something I don’t think people understand when they’re young. Everyone wants to be seen as “innately good”-this, even though in every traditional Christian church on the planet you’re expected to acknowledge original sin (never mind what Christ said about anyone calling him “good”). Well, my greatest inner freedom came when I finally realized-at age 41-that I had murdered a saintly woman the last time around. And not just murdered her, but then chopped her into hors d’oeuvres and fed her to my fellow priests. And so for anybody thinking they’re going to get out of the sh*thole of a life they’re in by trying to act like a saint-get out of all their karmic entanglements-that’s not going to work. Got to accept you did something to earn this sh*thole of a life-then learn to see something good in all these sh*theads you’re entangled with. Oh yeah-and this stuff sometimes spooks people when I share it. Women at the ARE. And I’m just thinking to myself, “What the hell-you think you and I picked up this shared interest in Cayce by accident? And if my soul is filthy, and therefore cursed to live and die in these ‘interesting times’-well what do you think you did that was so much better?” Sometimes that works. And so I usually consign myself to writing from my brains, rather than from experiences. But some of my experiences are just…off the chain. I might try writing to Peter Woodbury again-see if that gay SOB bothers to write me back. And me?! Don’t swing that way. I did have a highly sexualized adolescence in B-more, but it wasn’t in that direction. A handful of interesting ladies who are now probably marking time in nursing homes. A few Lynda Carter lookalikes, but it didn’t last long. She lives in Maryland, btw-Lynda Carter. Did time with a guy who broke into her house and stole her Lexus just for the thrill of it. That, and I think she’s originally from Phoenix.

The idea of reincarnation absolutely sucks.

[@edgarcaycearizona67]

One of the main things that separates Edgar Cayce's worldview from the various religions is that we don't live a righteous life on Earth to qualify for heaven in another place. Instead, we are to find that we can be in heaven wherever we go, even on Earth. Once we achieve that awareness, we can go where we like in time, space, and consciousness.
