Customer Reviews

excellent book.
Highly recommended. I just read the other reviews and they said it all. Priceless wisdom.

Know Thyself
The Cayce materials are metaphysical master pieces. Cayce and Andrew Jackson Davis are the two primeer American psychics. This book is very well written and presents information from the 14,300+ readings of E. Cayce to assist one in knowing ones self. Thinking persons should be aware that reading this book may start you on a path of self discovery. The question is are you ready to start on this glorious quest to "Know Thyself" as admonished by E. Cayce materials.
The book There Is A River by Thomas Surgrue, about EC launched me on the quest over 5 decades ago. There is still so much to learn and so much less time to spend learning....
Puryear has written and excellent book, enjoy----

Simply astounding
While Edgar Cayce may indeed be "the sleeping prophet," Herbert Puryear is some type of angel himself in how he interprets Cayce's work. This book is so far beyond anything I've read in the spiritual/New Age realm that it needs to take its place in the pantheon of all-time great non-fiction works.

As others have noted, Puryear's tone is almost scientific, but don't fear boredom or confusion by my using that word. Each sentence is so loaded with such profound truths and wisdoms that very often, I could only read a few paragraphs before having to put it down in order to reflect on what I'd just read. Puryear is a genius, pure and simple, and it's his generosity of heart and spirit that gives the work a poignancy one finds in any great work of art. Believe me, it's that good.

This will have a permanent home on my bookshelf, and I'm sure that as I read it again and again, I'll discover buried truths I didn't see (or wasn't ready for) the first time around.

Seriously, I can't believe someone is out there who can write this well. Do yourself a favor and buy it.
