The Book of Life -- or the akashic records -- is the storehouse of all information for every soul who has ever lived on earth. This major work provides examples of how we can tap into our records -- our past lives, our present experiences, and our unfolding futures -- and create that destiny.

"I highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for proof of the love and caring of a universal God." George G. Ritchie, Jr., M.D. Author of Return from Tomorrow and My Life After Dying

Herein is proof that we are never really alone and that the Divine is very much involved and concerned with all of humankind

Divine Encounters provides indisputable evidence that individuals from every religious background - and no religious background at all - have experienced personal encounters and contact from Spirit in their everyday lives. Through stories of regular people of all ages and historical encounters from many religious traditions there is a wealth of confirmation that God is very much alive These divine encounters are experiences that have occurred in dreams, in the midst of life's challenges, in chance encounters, within the sounds of a Voice, in visions and visitations, and at the edge of loss and death. In addition to contemporary accounts examining the variety of ways in which individuals have encountered the Divine, this volume provides a selection of stories from history, exploring the lives of Padre Pio, Vivekananda, Flower Newhouse, Shanti Devi, Starr Daily, and Irina Tweedie as a means of demonstrating that these experiences transcend religious boundaries.

Also explored are the amazing commonalities that are most frequently cited by individuals encountering Divine visits of their own, such things as the fact that the experience leaves individuals forever changed and provides a source of lifelong encouragement and that the experience embodies a sense of oneness with the rest of all Creation. Perhaps more than anything else, Divine Encounters suggests that there is much more to us than a physical body.

THE REST OF THE NOAH STORY explores the epic tale that has captured the imagination of nearly every culture and religion in human history - the story of Noah and the Flood. This is the story of when the world was young, when legends were real, and when mythical creatures roamed the earth. It is the story of love-of old Methuselah, last of the mystics, and his family, and of their attempts to save the peoples of the earth from a fate they have brought upon themselves. It is the story of slaves and of their vile half-human masters. It is the story of holy people who possess great faith in a God that no one has ever seen. And it is the story of Noah-Methuselah's grandson-who takes upon himself the salvation of the earth. Weaving together myth, scripture, metaphysics, history and spirituality, this book explores answers to many fascinating questions, such as: apart from scripture, is there historical evidence to support the existence of an Ark? Is there any connection between a global flood and the ancient legend of the sinking of Atlantis? Are there similarities that exist in such diverse accounts as myth and religion, and even the stories of clairvoyants and scholars? And ultimately, was there really a worldwide Flood? For those who are challenged by the ideas of Atlantis, pre-deluge creatures called "Mixtures," or the very idea of correlating such a vast array of seemingly unrelated information, consider this simply a work of fiction. To those who are open to the unknown and the possibility that there might be much more to this story than humanity has yet dared to imagine, they are invited to consider these things with the simple words: "What if?"

"I want very much to tell my story. You see, there may not be another story like this in all the world." So begins the tale of eighty-five-year-old Clara Cabot's remarkable journey through time and history. Clara relates her life story to a reporter, as she has been eyewitness to the rise and fall of a small Utah town and its nearby military base for sixty years. However, much more than a simple tale of history, Clara's unique narrative describes how actions from previous lives have set in motion her experiences in the present. Her relationship to her younger sister is karmic and associated with the child she abandoned in 19th century Wyoming. Her attraction to a self-centered husband is connected to fantasies she acquired during a seventeenth century life in England, when she longed to be with a self-center lord. Her psychic talent has been a part of her soul since becoming involved in mysticism in early Palestine. Clara's highly developed intuitive sense, which she calls "looking sideways," reveals how the tragedies and challenges of the present are simply the continuation of patterns set in motion in the long ago past. At first a complete skeptic, the reporter is eventually won over by the narrative and eventually comes to understand her own surprising connection to Clara Cabot through time. Clara's story portrays the amazing saga of the soul and some surprising revelations about the nature of life and the responsibility each of us shares in co-creating our lives.

EDGAR CAYCE ON MASTERING YOUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH What if God were completely loving, the universe completely orderly, and everything that transpired in life a purposeful experience chosen at some level by the soul for spiritual growth and soul development? Such is the premise of Edgar Cayce on Mastering Your Spiritual Growth. Drawing upon contemporary examples as well as historical case studies of individuals who received psychic guidance from Edgar Cayce, this insightful volume examines the activities of soul growth and the process of personal transformation that will ultimately enable all individuals to transform themselves as well as society and the world at large. For countless ages, people have asked Who am I? Why am I here? And does my life have a purpose? The answers to these questions were explored by thousands of individuals who came to famed psychic Edgar Cayce, and they are answers that are just as applicable today. The ultimate truth is that we are spiritual beings having a physical experience living purposeful lives in a process of soul growth. The keys to that process are working with a personal spiritual intent or ideal, discovering our own approach to personal attunement, and repeatedly working with personal application. The Cayce information contends that it is the inevitable destiny of every soul is to become cognizant of its true relationship to the Creator, eventually achieving spiritual enlightenment in the process. This stage of enlightenment was described by Cayce as "the Christ Consciousness" and has been demonstrated by such individuals as Jesus. What if a new understanding of the nature of the soul and the purpose of life on earth could transform humankind? Such is the premise in the Cayce information.

Life is a completely lawful experience because of the universal laws of reincarnation and karma that draw individuals together. Rather than being some type of unavoidable destiny or a fate about which we can do very little, the Edgar Cayce material instead sees karma as essentially an unconscious reservoir of information stored within the soul's memory. Although this memory may draw certain events and individuals to one another, personal free will and the way in which an individual responds to that memory determines her or his actual life experiences. Drawing upon contemporary family relationships, as well as family relationships for individuals who received guidance from Edgar Cayce, this insightful volume examines the activities of reincarnation and karma, especially as they play out in the dynamics of family relationships. All individuals are brought together within their respective families as a means of learning specific lessons and having opportunities for personal soul growth. In addition to examining the universal laws of reincarnation and karma, this book illustrates the lawfulness of life, the exacting nature of individual responsibility, and the ever-present hopefulness of personal free will. In the end, Edgar Cayce on Reincarnation and Family Karma makes an enormous contribution to demonstrating that life is a completely lawful experience, that individuals can overcome whatever "karmic lessons" they seem to be faced with, that free will is completely free, and that God is truly as fair and as loving as we have always wished for our Creator to be.

For millennia, the Arab world has been one of extremes: a place where wind-swept desert plains coexist with tropical climes and rich vegetation. It is a place where the splendor and majesty of some of the largest and oldest cities on earth provide a stark contrast to wandering desert nomads who travel with all belongings in tow-a place where warring peoples are as common as a depth of spiritual commitment found few places on earth. This novel traces the development of the legendary city of Ishlandoen, a great metropolis that arose on the plains of the Persian desert and eventually gave birth to the Zoroastrian faith. The story follows the life of a reluctant leader, Ravi, who was trained from his birth to bring a scattered desert people together into one nation. It is the story of a powerful nemesis, the emperor of Lydia, who resides in pampered luxury while his kingdom is rampant with unspeakable crimes of lack. It is the tale of a mysterious Egyptian holy man who possesses mystical powers found nowhere else on earth. And it is the story of two young lovers who are separated by a desert and are destined to find one another. Woven together with accounts of magic and mystery, desert skirmishes and intrigue, passion and one's search for meaning, the story explores the wonder of ancient Persia. Within its pages, A Persian Tale describes the formation of a new city upon the hills and the plains of a desert, destined to forever alter the history of its people, laying the foundation for one of the most important religious movements that the world would ever know.

For years Edgar Cayce, the most documented psychic of all time, provided a small group of individuals with lessons in soul growth and personal transformation. This volume presents a new look at those major principles. From the first lesson on cooperation through others on ideals, patience, oneness and love, this book provides specific tools for personal and spiritual development. The Cayce information suggests that each individual has a definite purpose for living. There is also the promise that with a spiritual intent we can come to understand that purpose. We are all here for a reason, a reason that joins us in search of a common heritage. Presented here are insights for awakening to our spiritual nature and to an awareness of the purpose of the soul. Edgar Cayce's Twelve Lessons in Personal Spirituality is designed as a tool for personal reflection, as a handbook for small group discussion, and even as a source of encouragement during those moments when the challenges of life seem more overwhelming than the beauty of it. For though we may be separated by language, or religion, or customs, or race, or even vast distances, we all share the earth as our temporal home, we are all Children of the same God, and we are all seekers along the way.

For more than forty years, Edgar Cayce, the sleeping prophet, regularly exhibited an astonishing psychic ability. From an altered state, he was able to read minds and souls, diagnose illness, prescribe remedies, predict the future, see the past, and tap into a source of universal knowledge where such information resides -- a source Cayce said is available to everyone. In this compelling compilation of case histories from the readings and other documented stories, Kevin Todeschi offers a wealth of proof of Cayce's psychic abilities and shows us that, now more than ever, Cayce's life and work demand further inquiry and research.
