Edgar Cayce on the Akashic Records
- by Kevin J. Todeschi
“The Akashic Records – or Book of Life – is the storehouse of all information for every individual who has ever lived upon the earth, containing every word, deed, feeling, thought, and intent that has ever occurred.
This major work is about how each of us is very much in charge of shaping our own destiny. It includes examples of how individuals have worked with information from the Book of Life dealing with their past, their present, and their future.
Here, for the first time, is an exploration into the very source from which famed psychic Edgar Cayce said he received many of his remarkable insights. It was this record that Cayce accessed in order to give the information that brought him recognition as one of the world’s great seers.
Edgar Cayce on the Akashic Records provides examples of how each of us can tap into our own past lives, our present experiences, and our unfolding futures to shape our own destiny.”

“Apparently, any type of endeavor – whether action, thought, desire, or deed – creates some kind of vibration. This vibration produces a mark upon (what Cayce called) the skein of space and time and is somehow permanently identified with the individual responsible.” – pg 3
“…although we are currently having a physical experience, our bodies are simply a temporal home. Just as an automobile is discarded when the owner no longer finds it useful, so too are our bodies set aside when they have completed their function. We are not physical bodies with souls, but are spiritual beings who happen to be having a physical existence.” – pg 5
“The soul gains firsthand knowledge not only about its own identity but also learns how choices lead to certain experiences. In time, soul experiences and acquired knowledge will lead to wisdom. Inevitably, wisdom will lead to compassion and eventually love will be the end result.” – pg 6
“In essence, life is an adventure of experiences whereby an individual is challenged to become a better person for having had those experiences.” – pg 10
“It (karma) is not really a debt that must be paid, nor is it necessarily a set of specific circumstances that must be experience because of deeds or misdeeds from the past. Karma is simply patterns of memory.” – pg 11
“Regardless of which cycle has surfaced in one’s life, the soul constantly experiences the consequences of its previous choices.” – pg 13
“… we never meet anyone by chance, nor do we ever have an emotional connection (positive or negative) to another individual for the very first time. … we pick up our relationship with another person exactly where it was left the last time around.” – pg 14
“… individuals seem to most effectively come to terms with their own karmic memory, or ‘meet themselves,’ through their interactions with others. … And yet, in spite of the fact that karma belongs to oneself, each soul is constantly drawn toward certain individuals and groups that will enable them to meet themselves in circumstances and relationships” – pg 15
“Ultimately, the purpose of each lifetime was to undergo experiences which would enable the soul to become in tune with its divine origins.” – pg 50
“… reincarnation was neither a belief system nor a philosophy; it was, instead, a factual process of personal development, eventually enabling each individual to reach soul maturity as a loving, creative, selfless being” – pg 72
“… ‘mind is the builder’ and that each individual is constantly involved in the creation of underlying attitudes and emotions.” – pg 80
“Our relationships with one another are an ongoing process, from which we can learn a great deal about ourselves. We never meet anyone by chance. Instead, souls are drawn together again and again for possible personal soul development - a development, ultimately, which will assist each individual in becoming a fit companion with the Creator.” – pg 83
“Each of us contains many urges, patterns, and conflicting emotions that must be resolved in the soul’s educational process of discovering ‘who am I?’ Whether or not these lessons are learned in the present becomes a matter of free choice, but if they are not learned, they will simply be presented again and again in various ways until they are mastered.” – pg 88
“… the earth is literally a ‘cause and effect’ classroom in which each individual constantly has the opportunity to meet self and apply spiritual principles in the material world.” – pg 89
“Whatever is going on in the person’s life is evident in the aura. She states, ‘An individual’s aura changes as his or her physical health or vitality changes.’ When she sees gray spots around the heart area, for example she knows that the individual has had a heart attack or has some other problem with the heart.” – pg 104
“Everything the soul experiences happen for a reason – whether or not we choose to be conscious of the lesson involved just yet is a matter of free will, but the lesson eventually will be ours to learn.” – pg 111
“… sometimes a soul went backward in its development because of losses in a particular experience, but the goal was ever advancement.” – pg 167
“…anything done for the aggrandizement of self would ‘come to naught’ and that anything done for the glorification of the Creator would ‘come to fruition’. The long term goal was ‘that the soul, for its own development, may become one with the universal forces or Creative Energies, or God.’” – pg 167
“…no one is automatically destined for ‘heaven’ and no one is ever relegated to ‘hell’. Ultimately, all souls will receive the same reward: an awareness of their individuality and their oneness with God.” – pg 168
“Because of the dynamics of reincarnation, in all likelihood we have all been Christian, we have all been Muslim, we have all been Jewish, we have all been Hindu, Buddhist, atheist, and agnostics.” – pg 168
“…the importance of life was not a matter of one’s religion; rather, it was a matter of whether or not an individual could grow in his or her awareness of the living spirit. Heaven was not so much a place as it was a state of being which all souls would eventually manifest.” – pg 168
“In our sojourn through space and time we apparently have forgotten our spiritual essence, we have forgotten our true relationship with God.” – pg 169
“The focus is always upon others. The focus is never upon self.” – pg 172
