While any story about Edgar Cayce is fascinating, this falls short for me. It is interesting, but when the author (Hugh Cayce) quotes his father, I can't understand a word he's saying. Most of the book is done in a question and answer format between Edgar Cayce and his client, in quotations (his own words). For instance : "(Q) What form of consciousness does the spirit entity assume?" He is asked by the client. "(A) That of the subconscious consciousness, as known in the material plane, or the acts and deeds, and thoughts, done in the body, are ever present before that being. Then consider what a hell digged by some, and what a haven and heaven builded by many." HUH ??? The whole book is like this......impossible to decipher and understand. Reading this was more frustrating than enjoyable. I didn't finish it.
Great read! A page-turner! I loved it. January 30, 1999 35 out of 38 found this review helpful
This revision of Hugh Lynn's 1958 48-page booklet, "God's Other Door," is brimming with a wondrous collection of readings and stories. The original material is there, but Graham has added masses of new research. As the preface indicates, Hugh Lynn, when he wrote it, didn't have much time for research. He was on the road constantly, speaking in any state on any Cayce topic, trying to build and keep alive the A.R.E., which then had only a few thousand members. Graham's dream of a conversation with Hugh Lynn is the first choice gem in a book full of Cayce wisdom, insight, and comfort. The 22 chapters range widely around the central fact, as Cayce put it, "you are a soul, you have a body." And the soul does not die. Out-of-body travel, the finer body, the silver cord, the light, the inter-between, soul communication, angels, reincarnation, love, wonderful and awesome aspects of being -- all of these and more -- are arranged and presented with skill by a master sotryteller. The final chapter is Edgar Cayce's 1934 lecture, "The Continuity of Life."
