Could the book of revelations be a book to transform the body into one of light written in way that only those with ears to hear and eyes to see would discover ......read on and see for your self
The first book that came to me on my spiritual pathway was Edgar Cayce's comentary on the book of Revelations - it was - according to Cayce a coded book of how to spiritualize the body .
..".... A symbolic account of the fall and restoration of the human soul to its divine origins...."....
The Commentary on the Revelations has this to say
…..”…..The visions, the experiences, the names, the churches, the places, the dragons, the cities, all are but EMBLEMS of those forces that may war within the individual …..hence we find as the churches are named, they are as the forces that are known as the sense, that must be SPIRITUALIZED by the will of the individual made one in the very activities in a material world …..And the elders and the lamb are the emblems, are the shadows of those acceptances or rejections that are made in the experiences of the individual ….”…
In the Ra Material the law of one, the question was asked who is Cayce Channelling the answer was no one – he channels no one ….”…..Where did the information come from that Edgar Cayce channelled?
Ra - No entity spoke through Edgar Cayce……. We have explained before that the intelligent infinity is brought into intelligent energy from eighth density ….”….Lamb = Christ consciousness as developed through experience in the earth
World = MANKIND
Patience and faith of saints = experience in world
Another beast = mind or conscious level with power of choice between good and evil
Mark of the beast = pattern of animalistic behaviour shown
Number of the beast = 666
Number of man = 666 – the NATURAL man as opposed to the evolved man
Four beasts = four lower centres of the endocrine system
False prophet = Self delusion
Great city of Bablyon = man's established systems
Babylon the great = Man made patterns of self gratification
The beast = man made ideals
The horns = urges
Four and twenty elders = the senses
marriage of the lamb = union of he evolved self with the over self on superconscious level
Hell = remorse and frustrations
Gog and Magog = worldly influences
Great multitude = Cells within yet to be spiritualized
A new heaven = a perfected state of consciousness
A new earth = a perfected integrated body
Throne of god and the lamb = man in complete supercoscniousness as his normal state
Angel of the lord = highest self of the individual
Angel of Jesus = highest self of collective man
John – And as I stood upon the sand of the sea and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns and upon his horns ten crowns and upon his head the name of blasphemy ….and the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard and his feet were as the feet of a bear and his mouth as the mouth of a lion; and the dragon gave him his power, his seat, and great authority
Cayce – From a point of detached observation John now perceives how forces for the expression of selfish desires arise through the emotions which are capable of ruling man – Attributes of these forces are TREACHERY, ERROR AND BOASTFULNESS - the power springs from the self will of the UNSPIRITUALIZED intellect of man.
John – And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered after the beast
Cayce – Because of the ability of this force to bring about certain miraculous transformations the world worships the intellect as a ‘SYMBOL OF SUCCESS’
John – And they worshiped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and the power was given unto him to continue forty and two months
Cayce – During the period of its apparent unobstructed license to indulge itself the human intellect, lacking spiritual orientation, CUTS ITS SELF OFF FROM ALL THAT IS DIVINE
John – And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against god to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle and them that dwelt in heaven …..and it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to over come them; and power was given him over all kindred’s, and tongues, and nations.
Cayce – Yet so great is its influence that it begins to take control of all those in the world who have no particular belief in a higher power who don’t actually know in what they truly believe
John – And all that dwelt upon the earth shall worship him, who’s names are not written in the book of life of the lamb slain from the foundation of the world ….if any man have an ear, let him hear ….He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity; he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
Cayce – However, those who have over come through experience in the world know that whatever appears to be happening the law of cause and effect goes on perpetually and inexorably.
John - And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake first as a dragon
Cayce – The UNSPIRITULISED mentality is shown as a DECEVING INTELLIGENCE WHICH PERSUDES MANKIND TO EMBRACE FALSE VALUES OF WHAT IS WONDERFUL AND MIRACULOUS IN THE WORLD, to set up discriminations against those who retain their spiritual values (NOTE: this says SPIRITUAL not Religious)
John – And he excerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast whose deadly wound was healed….and he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, …..and deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword and did live…..and he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed..... AND HE CAUSETH ALL, BOTH SMALL AND GREAT, RICH AND POOR, FREE AND BOND TO RECIVE A MARK IN THEIR RIGHT HAND, OR IN THEIR FOREHEADS;….and that no man might buy or sell save he that had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name…
Cayce – THUS ALL ARE FORCED TO BIND THEMSELVES TO THE INSTITUTIONS OF THE WORLD AND ITS SYSTEMS
John – here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is a numaber of a man; and his number is six hundred threescore and six
Cayce - The intellect can be either the instrument of man’s salvation or his degeneration
Beast = emotional urges for expression of SELFISH desires
..."...The Beast is our lower nature at our most selfish, self-centered, self-gratifying, self-glorifying point of existence...."..
Thus the mark of the beast is our lower selfish desires captured by the system and gratified by stuff which binds us all to the system
