I have been a member of the A.R.E. for 20 years and a student of the Cayce readings since I was introduced to them when I was 22. Now is the time to share with my friends what I believe is the truth. The Cayce readings and the teachings they espouse have guided me ever since I learned of them. I will not proselytize but I would invite you to check it out and make your own decisions as to their veracity. I started by reading the book There Is A River by Thomas Sugrue. It’s a good place to start. The following is a recent blog post from an A.R.E. contributor.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now is the time to exercise your power as a creator. Consciously. We constantly create. The world around us is the result of our thoughts. This is found in numerous Cayce readings—thoughts are things, mind is the builder, etc. Unfortunately, we have not accepted the deep nature of this truth nor have we accepted the responsibility of this aspect of our being. We have limited our vision to material creation. Now is the time to go up to the causal level.

What do you see in the world today? War, poverty, fear, political division, extinction of animals, natural disasters. This can be overwhelming to the material mind, but not to the spiritual. Each one of us, using our spiritual power given to us by The Creator, can make a great change in the collective consciousness that creates the material world. Yes, even in mitigating natural disasters, for Mother Earth responds to attitudes held in the mass consciousness, and for a long time now she has been under attack. She is beginning to defend herself.

Cayce warned in his readings on Atlantis that if our attitudes were not spiritualized, our technological society would find the same ending as Atlantis, i.e., destruction—a destruction that we will have created. His readings on earth changes told us what may occur if we did not change the vibrations we were building in the ethers. Sadly, we are seeing many of these, but the severity of the disasters may have been somewhat mitigated by the work individuals and small groups have been doing to raise consciousness.

Today we hear the cries for help from many directions. After Hurricane Sandy’s visit to the American East Coast it is obvious many thousands of people need our help. There are children starving throughout the world, much of the world lacks clean water, animals are being hunted to extinction or their habitats are being destroyed; this list could go on and on, but you have the power to change it.

Little me? Yes! First of all, you are not little. We were created in the image of The Creator. That is NOT little. Second, instead of working at the material level, rise to the causal level where your work will more quickly and effectively bring about change. Don’t ignore the cries of the material level, but focus on the causal, since fewer will be able to recognize the importance of that type of work.

What do you do? Live what you believe. All day, every day, bring your every thought and action into accord with the highest consciousness you know. For example, while driving, let go of individual desire; drive with your actions and responses being determined by the greatest good for all. Break that initial annoyance with the vision of safe journeying for all. This isn’t being a goody two-shoes! This is how you create peace and brotherhood! You send out a higher vibration. This is where you LIVE “thoughts are things,” not just mouth it. If you don’t believe this could make a difference, try feeling that the guy who is tailgating you is a spiritual brother and send a heartfelt prayer for his safety and yours. Show respect that he might have an acceptable reason for his actions and ask that he respect your reason for your actions. Your response must be honest. Then watch what happens.

In all aspects of your life consciously choose to align with the higher vibration. Observe your thoughts, and feed them with only that which leads you to positive growth. Skip forwarding that email that is based on belittlement, fear, or outrage. Avoid any media that feeds the fear within you. Take responsibility for creating the life around you. If you created it, you can change it. You are that powerful.

You are also so very, very important at this time, because you have opened yourself to these truths and are allowing them to blossom in your life. Every consciousness that is opening to a higher vibration is helping to lift others with it.

The greatest need in this world at this moment is the lifting up of the mass consciousness; through this, permanent solutions to the distressing situations in our world will be found. Nurture your own expanding consciousness, encourage others by your words, suggestions of a book, movie, or program.

But each contact needs a support to keep it going. Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. has done that for me and many, many others. That is why I have supported their newly launched CREATE campaign, which seeks to ensure a source is readily available to the many who are ready to change their consciousness now and in the future. I do not ignore the other cries for help, but I want the greater portion of my giving to support the causal level for positive change in the world. I want to consciously be a Creator.

Judy Lickert has been a member of A.R.E. since 1973, a student of the Cayce readings since 1966, and a Study Group member for more than 30 years. Her support of A.R.E. has included membership in our Golden Circle donor ($1,000+) recognition club as well as Life Membership. She has been married to her spiritual partner for 43 years, and has two daughters and two granddaughters. She is active in her community, especially the library and school district. She is an animal lover, organic gardener, and ballroom dancer.

Great Cayce Reading December 29, 2010

. . . the church is within yourself and not in any pope nor preacher, nor in any building but in self! For thy body is indeed the temple of the living God, and the Christ becomes a personal companion in mind and in body; dependent upon the personality and individuality of the entity as it makes practical application of the tenets and truths that are expressed. 5125-1

The mental is the builder, for thoughts are deeds – they may become crimes or they may become miracles, whether guided by the spirit of truth, or as to the gratification of self’s own interests. 451-1

This quote is from an Edgar Cayce reading (referenced by the numbers after the quote). It is possibly the most important revelation Cayce ever uttered when he went into trance and tapped into the Universal Consciousness. I see it repeated everywhere within A.R.E publications.

The manifestation of health and abundance in all areas of your life is inevitable when you understand the true nature of your reality and your Divine heritage. The world you experience arises from the images and feelings you hold in your mind and heart. Discover the true ease and simplicity of using the powers of your mind to bring miracles into your life.  — Association for Research and Enlightenment

Be glad you have the opportunity to be alive at this time, and to be a part of that preparation for the coming influences of a spiritual nature that must rule the world. These are indicated, and these are part of thy experience. Be happy of it, and give thanks daily for it. 2376-3

I haven’t posted in quite a while…lots of reasons not least of which is the mounting pessimism I feel about the current state of the world. I talked about my reticence to write with a friend who always has a sunny view because she has trained herself to see the world as she would like it to be. Rather than dwell on the negative and focus energies on the bad, she reverses it and extols the benefits of living the way we ought to be and points out the way to do it. She refrains from any negativity and keeps the focus on the positive. This is all based on the Edgar Cayce teachings (based on Christ) that thoughts are just as important as deeds and carry the same karmic weight. Negative thoughts as well as negative actions create a discordant vibration with the Universal Force (God) and thus retard our souls growth.

I am fighting mightily not to pound out a 500-word screed against everything I see as wrong with our country, President and current direction. Instead, I will take a deep breath and ask everyone to live by the Golden Rule, do something nice for someone else today and keep all of those who need God’s light in your prayers.

Have a wonderful day!
