Your true purpose in life is revealed by accessing your essence or spiritual nature—the “spiritual forces within you.” Using the wisdom and vision of the world-famous seer Edgar Cayce, Van Auken helps us reach our spiritual life force that is intimately and ultimately connected to all of life, all of time, and all of space—a part of ourselves that is our true self and is naturally in touch with the infinite and the eternal. What power over our lives can we wield when in touch with the infinite? A broader awareness, a healthier vitality, a purpose, and a meaningfulness. The life force is within us, within our spirit and mind, and this book gives us the tools to fully awaken and activate it. Includes ancient and modern illustrations of the life forces within the human body and mind, maps of consciousness, and diagrams of the body-mind connections.

Soul is our developing True Self, here is where our heart's deepest hopes and fears lie. Filled with stories, insights, and guidance, this is a must read if you wish to fully understand yourself and your life.

This is the account of an American teenager who discovered a monastery in Tibet that was the inspiration for the legend of Shangri La. It might be categorized as a 'new age' or philosophy book, like the Celestine Prophecy, since it focuses on his spiritual training and their teachings in a novel-like format. Hard to believe, but interestingly, the sub-tropical region amongst the Himalayas that he describes finding, was later documented by explorers from National Geographic, then 'covered up' (there is still evidence of this). Also interesting is that the author was apparently mentioned in the Edgar Cayce readings (the famous American psychic whose books have sold millions of copies), as someone who would one day bring an important message to the world.

Give God a Chance is an effort to present the information in the Edgar Cayce readings in ways that are meaningful and useful to Christians of all persuasions, and even to those of other faiths. Give God a Chance consists of the following five sections: PART I: The Edgar Cayce Readings This part focuses on Edgar Cayce and the ways in which Cayce presented health and spiritual advice in what has been called readings. It also deals with the authors personal experiences with the readings. Various questions are asked in an attempt to compare the purposes of the readings with those of traditional Bible based, Christ-centered, faith in God. PART II: God, Mankind, and Spiritual Laws The readings begin with the assumption that all souls were created for the purpose of becoming companions with God. A creation cosmology is explored, which includes the possibility of the continuity of life extending into other times and places. Gods justice and mercy are understood in terms of the law of cause and effect, the law of grace, and the law of love. PART III: Christianity and the Cayce Readings The Cayce information sheds new light on our ancient Scriptures. It gives us a unique perspective of Jesus the Christ and His mission. The history of the Church is explored from the early church onward to the vision of a more democratic, inspired, and unified Body of Christ in the future. PART IV: Christian Spirituality Applied The Cayce readings are a treasure of information about prayer, meditation, healing, spiritual psychology, and applied spirituality in all phases of our lives. PART V: World Transformation A Christian worldview is developed that emphasizes personal spiritual growth (a new heaven) through having in us the mind that was in Christ Jesus, and global transformation (a new earth) through the application of Christian spirituality in the world.

John Van Auken combines his love of Kabbalah with his 40 years of studying the psychic readings of world-famous seer Edgar Cayce to take us on a mind-expanding journey through creation and the higher levels of our consciousness. Van Aukens easy writing style helps to shed light on the most complicated concepts in Kabbalah, making it easier to grasp the five divisions of our being, the four planes of existence, the seven heavens, the ten emanations, and the twenty-two channels of the Infinite Creative Consciousness. We also learn how to expand our minds to perceive these realms, to journey through them, and, to remain sane, healthy, and active in our present life. Van Auken brings in insights from Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, and even ancient Egyptian theology, and includes Gnosticism and Neo-Platonism in this multi-dimensional vista. A reading journey into Edgar Cayce and the Kabbalah offers you a personal road map to higher consciousness and a happier, more fulfilling life!

Is there really such a thing as soul mates? According to Edgar Cayce, yes. But his definition of "soul mates," "twin souls," and "perfect partners" may differ from what you're expecting. For decades, Cayce provided thousands of individuals with insights into the nature of their personal relationships, the dynamics of soul attraction, and the universal laws at work that draw individuals together. What is unique about Todeschi's book is that it explores the development of relationships over time, played out within the framework of reincarnation. In addition to discussing soul mate relationships, their connection to the cyclic pattern of reincarnation, and the nature of loneliness, this book looks at the fundamentals of soul attraction and provides contemporary examples of the same principles discussed by Cayce.

Reinterpreted as a companion to Edgar Cayce's spiritual readings on yoga, this informative book provides the wisdom of the ancient teachings and the means to apply them to your regular practice. Each book within this book will help bring you closer to achieving spiritual enlightenment.
