While I’m guessing that most of you have heard of American intuitive Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), who had a lasting impact on the general acceptance of medical cures and other metaphysical phenomenon during his life, it’s handy to have a short primer on his life & legacy. I found this short rundown, which explains what he did and the research that followed, both to help people who were sick and to attempt to understand the spiritual lessons involved with his readings. Take a peek and see what you think.

The ARE (Association for Research & Enlightenment) continues to this day (check them out here: http://edgarcayce.org/), which catalogs his readings and makes them available to students, researchers, and everyone else. See what you find….

Writings: Wayne Dyer, on Being the Peace

Wayne-DyerWayne Dyer, on Being the Peace

Peace isn’t something you ultimately receive when you slow down the pace of your life. Peace is what you’re capable of being and bringing to every encounter and event in the waking moments of your life.

Being peaceful is an inner attitude that you can enjoy when you’ve learned to silence your incessant inner dialogue. Being peaceful isn’t dependent on what your surroundings look like. It seldom has anything to do with what the people around you think, say, or do.

A noiseless environment isn’t a requirement.

St. Francis’s famous prayer states it better than I can: “Make me an instrument of your peace.” In other words, St. Francis wasn’t asking God to provide him with peace. He was asking for guidance to be more like the peace he trusted was his Source. Being peace is different from looking for peace.

candle-oThis principle isn’t about merely choosing tranquil thoughts when you’re feeling frayed and anxious. I suggest picturing a container deep within yourself out of which all your thoughts flow. Inside of this container, at its very center, imagine a candle flame. You need to make a commitment that this flame in the center of the container holding all your thoughts will never, ever even flicker, although the very worst may go before you.

This is your container of peace, and only peaceful thoughts can fuel the burning candle. You don’t need to change your thoughts as much as you need to learn to be an energy of peace lighting the way and attracting serene, harmonious thoughts and beings. In this way, you’ll become a being of peace.

As a being of peace, you make a huge impact on those around you. It’s almost impossible to be totally stressed out in the presence of someone who has opted to be peace.

Peace is a higher and faster energy—when you’re being peace, just your presence alone will often nullify the uneasiness and tension in those around you. The secret of this principle is: Be the peace and harmony you desire. You cannot get it from anything or anyone else.

Namaste,
Wayne
