Edgar Cayce: The Spiritual Way (20.): Put on if you want to get it

09. 10. 2017
6th international conference of exopolitics, history and spirituality

My dear, beautiful weather, which again spread over the Czech Republic, does not attract reading, but for walks and trips. So hurray for nature, and when you return, the continuation of the series about the "sleeping prophet" Edgar Cayce awaits you. You may be thinking now that you haven't read about him in a long time, that I've been silent without finishing the show - you're right. The pause was long. My summer has seen a lot of changes in my personal and professional life. My name is no longer Edita Polenová, but Edit Silent, craniosacral therapies are already taking place in a new spacious study and my intention to work with people has been given a new coat. But maybe another time. I'm back and the topic that is waiting to open is really unmissable.

Before I write down, I would like to thank you in return for all the people I have been able to meet during my therapies thanks to Edgar's writing. It has always been a beautiful meeting of two open hearts. That is why I continue to offer this possibility. Write me on the attached form, share your experiences with Edgar's themes, with life, with yourself. At the end of the week, I will draw one of you and we will meet in a new office in Radotín during craniosacral biodynamics therapy.

Principle No20: "Put it if you want to get it. We only own what we give away. "
You may oppose me at the outset: "What should I give away if I don't?"

I thought a lot about this question. I walk around Wenceslas Square and come across a beggar. I'll give him twenty crowns. In another hundred meters I see another and before I walk from Můstek to Václav, I have an empty wallet. So that's not how it works. I can't give to everyone and I can't give out beyond my borders. I feel sad. On the same Václavák, where beggars are in front of my eyes right now, I also meet an older lady. He looks at me and smiles with a look that brightens my whole heart. I also smile right away and move on, I look people in the eye, they don't smile much, but a lot of them return my sincere smile. In front of my eyes there are suddenly quite a few beautiful, cordial people whose happy face lit up their face. What happened? I wanted to get a smile, so I donated it.

The difference between an idealist and a successful person almost always lies in the deed, the best plan has no great value if we do not devote our time, energy or money to it so that we can carry it out. No wonder a lot of people came to Edgar with questions about money and material resources. Cayce's answers were surprising and often reminiscent of the biblical principle: "Every wild beast is mine, cattle on a thousand hills" (Psalm 50). In other words, all forms of material resources ultimately belong to God. "What you give, you have, the more you give, the more the fruit will be."

In today's modern world, this advice seems quite naive. Anyone who works in a store is aware that if he distributes his property, he will not get rich. The claim that we can get property by distribution is unlikely to be heard by many people. In the long run, however, it is proven that accumulation leads to scarcity. Although it seems illogical, the secret of sufficiency lies in sharing attitudes. Giving is meaningful in a world of unity. Because we are deeply connected to other human beings, we give what we give to others.

Law of the Supply of Material Resources
Many New Age leaders recommend a visualization procedure using visualization. If you want a million, imagine you already have one. But that's not how it works. According to the law, "The Spirit is life, the mind is the builder, and the bodily is the result," the Spirit is the source of all things, including money and material means. But it is important for what purpose we want to use potential resources, what is the goal that goes beyond our own selfish interest.

Giving the door opens
Knowledge of the law and its understanding alone is not a guarantee that it will work for us. We need to do ourselves. When we give what we have, we create new possibilities of exchange and that represents a space for receiving. But this must happen for selfless reasons. Cayce gives the example of a man who could never find a place to park his car. He therefore decided to pay for all cars whose deadline had expired. He was excited because he had really been able to park better for a while, but because his intention was selfish, soon there was no place for him in the parking lots again. He understood from his example that he had used a relatively manipulative way of getting what he wanted. He gave only to get and thus escaped the essence of the principle.

What counts is a real effort to share with others, an attitude of generosity and compassion.

Needs
In the Middle Ages, religion promised a joyous life in heaven. Poverty, sexual abstinence and obedience were considered virtues. Today, some people believe that God will give them everything they ask for when they know how to ask.

Most of us want far more than we really need. We only know our real needs when we realize what our goals are and what we want to do for others.

In 1936, a middle-aged woman asked Edgar Cayce for advice. She was so worried about the material security of the family that it affected her health. In addition to some medical advice, the interpretations advised her to do her best to do the work she was entrusted here on Earth, and that was to take care of others. He will improve his financial situation by concentrating more on his work than on his worries.

How to Work with the Material Security Act
Cayce's strategy to repair material security has absolutely nothing to do with promises of unlimited wealth. Those who use it can expect to meet all of their needs if they care sincerely for the welfare of their neighbors. How can we deal with the law of sufficiency? There are six recommendations that will make it easier for us to apply this law in a creative and meaningful way:

  1. Clarify your goal: Let's clarify the goal for which we need material resources. There is nothing wrong with wishing for a house, a car, a higher salary, but the reason should be things that go beyond our own selfish desires. Are we able to see more property as a means to help us help others? Am I following my wish in accordance with the mission of my soul, with our service to the world? What material resources are needed to accomplish the goal?
  2. Why do not I have enough funding right now? The Creator is sometimes more aware of our needs than we are. Undoubtedly, we need some financial security, but we also need certain life experiences that will help us better understand ourselves and others. These life lessons sometimes presuppose a period of scarcity that tests our faith, or our spiritual growth requires greater sensitivity to the needs of others.
  3. We learn to be grateful for what we have: Too often, in our quest to own more, we forget what we already have. Appreciating this is a fundamental step in acting in accordance with the law of material security.
  4. Put what you can: Giving generously does not necessarily mean saying goodbye to a large amount of money. It means giving what is within our means. The excuse is doubtful, "I'll give it when I have more." Cayce warned that if we weren't willing to give at least something now, we wouldn't give it even if we had more. Can't we give ten percent? And what about a tenth of a percent? It is also clear that money is not the only thing we can donate. We also have our time, energy and talents. Which of these things could benefit someone? We could rent our car or an apartment or another thing we don't need so much for someone it will be precious to. This will create sources of possible future enrichment.
  5. Let us expect and receive the good that comes to us: "If you give, it will be given to you," such is the spiritual law. However, this law does not specify when the good will return to you and in what form. The American writer William Sydney Porter, known as O. Henry, gave us a beautiful story about this law. His story "The Gift of a Mage" concerns a young married couple, deeply in love, and at the same time very poor. Only their husband's pocket watch and the woman's beautiful long hair count their wealth. Christmas is approaching in the story and neither of them has the money to buy the dream gift. A woman wants to buy a man a chain for his watch and a man a woman a set of hairpins that would perfectly decorate her hair. The holidays are approaching and with growing nervousness the man decides to sell his watch so he can buy his nice paper clips, and the woman has her hair cut and sells it so that she has money for a chain. The end of the story brings both tears and laughter.
  6. Giving contributes to community building: The development of the community is dependent on the ability to give. It is best illustrated by the reputation of the man he has visited heaven and hell. He saw a desperate situation in hell. Around the table, where there was a plethora of all kinds of food, sat the inhabitants of hell. However, their spoons were so long that they could not even get close to their mouths. No matter how hard they tried, they were doomed to constant starvation and spiritual hardship. As they visited heaven, the men shed tears in their eyes. The same people at the same table fed each other long spoons, were happy, full, and connected.

We can create a piece of heaven where we are by giving and receiving with love whatever comes back to us. 

Exercises:
Let us clarify our goal and train the six laws of creation of abundance described above. To all this, I wish you peace and tranquility in your heart. Who has a taste, let me write about his travels and ways. I enclose the form.

With love, Edit Your Silent
