The Edgar Cayce Readings
Continent and Culture of Atlantis
Readings Extract - Mans Initial Entrance into Earth
READING: 364-3
In the period, then - some hundred, some ninety-eight thousand
years before the entry of Ram into India - there lived in this land
of Atlantis one Amilius. (Aryans into India 2000 BC = 100,000 years
BC) there lived in this land of Atlantis one Amilius [?], who had
first NOTED that of the separations of the beings as inhabited that
portion of the earth's sphere or plane of those peoples into male and
female as separate entities, or individuals. As to their forms in the
physical sense, these were much RATHER of the nature of THOUGHT
FORMS, or able to push out OF THEMSELVES in that direction in which
its development took shape in thought - much in the way and manner as
the amoeba would in the waters of a stagnant bay, or lake, in the
present. As these took form, by the gratifying of their own desire
for that as builded or added to the material conditions, they became
hardened or set -much in the form of the existent human body of the
day, with that of color as partook of its surroundings much in the
manner as the chameleon in the present. Hence coming into that form
as the red, or the mixture peoples - or colors; known then later by
the associations as the RED race. These, then, able to use IN their
gradual development all the forces as were manifest in their
individual surroundings, passing through those periods of
developments as has been followed more closely in that of the yellow,
the black, or the white races, in other portions of the world; yet
with their immediate surroundings, with the facilities for the
developments, these became much speedier in this particular portion
of the globe than in others - and while the destruction of this
continent and the peoples are far beyond any of that as has been kept
as an absolute record, that record in the rocks still remains - as
has that influence OF those peoples in that life of those peoples to
whom those that did escape during the periods of destruction make or
influence the lives of those peoples TO whom they came.

(Q) Explain the information given regarding Amilius [?], who
first noted the separation of the peoples into male and female, as it
relates to the story in the Bible of Adam and Eve, in the Garden of
Eden giving the name of the symbols Adam, Eve, the apple, and the
serpent. (A) This would require a whole period of a lecture period
for this alone; for, as is seen, that as is given is the presentation
of a teacher of a peoples that separated for that definite purpose of
keeping alive in the minds, the hearts, the SOUL minds of entities,
that there may be seen their closer relationship to the divine
influences of Creative Forces, that brought into being all that
appertains to man's indwelling as man in the form of flesh in this
material world. These are presented in symbols of that thought as
held by those peoples from whom the physical recorder took those
records as compiled, with that gained by himself in and through the
entering into that state where the entity's soul mind drew upon the
records that are made by the passing of time itself in a material
world. As given, these are records not only of the nature as has been
termed or called akashic records (that is, of a mental or soul
record), but that in a more material nature as set down in stone,
that was attempted to be done - HAS been attempted to be done
throughout ALL time! WHY does man NOW set in stone those that are
representatives of that desired to be kept in mind by those making
records for future generations? There are many more materials more
lasting, as is known to many. In the records, then, as this: There
are, as seen, the records made by the man in the mount, that this
Amilius [?] - Adam, as given - first discerned that from himself, not
of the beasts about him, could be drawn - WAS drawn - that which made
for the propagation OF beings IN the flesh, that made for that
companionship as seen by creation in the material worlds about same.
The story, the tale (if chosen to be called such), is one and the
same. The apple, as 'the apple of the eye', the desire of that
companionship innate in that created, as innate in the Creator, that
brought companionship into the creation itself. Get that one! In this
there comes, then, that which is set before that created - or having
TAKEN ON that form, able of projecting itself in WHATEVER direction
it chose to take, as given; able to make itself OF that environ, in
color, in harmony, in WHATEVER source that makes for the spirit of
that man would attempt to project in music, in art, in ANY form that
may even be conceivable to the mind itself in what may be termed its
most lucid moments, in its most esoteric moments, in its highest
animation moments; for were He not the SON of the living God made
manifest, that He might be the companion in a made world, in material
manifested things, with the injunction to subdue all, BRING all in
the material things under subjection - all UNDER subjection - by that
ability to project itself IN its way? KNOWING itself, as given, to be
a portion OF the whole, in, through, of, by the whole? In this
desire, then, keep - as the injunction was - thine self separate: OF
that seen, but NOT that seen. The apple, then, that desire for that
which made for the associations that bring carnal-minded influences
of that brought as sex influence, known in a material world, and the
partaking of same is that which brought the influence in the lives of
that in the symbol of the serpent, that made for that which creates
the desire that may be only satisfied in gratification of carnal
forces, as partake of the world and its influences about same -
rather than of the spiritual emanations from which it has its source.
Will control -inability of will control, if we may put it in common
parlance.

Yes,
we have the information as written here, as given. In following out
that as just given, with these changes coming in the experience of
Amilius [?] and I [Ai? Ay?], Adam and Eve, the knowledge of their
position, or that as is known in the material world today as desires
and physical bodily charms, the understanding of sex, sex
relationships, came into the experience. With these came the natural
fear of that as had been forbidden, that they know themselves to be a
part of but not OF that as partook of EARTHLY, or the desires in the
manner as were ABOUT them, in that as had been their heritage. Were
this turned to that period when this desire, then, becomes
consecrated in that accomplished again in the virgin body of the
mother of the SON of man, we see this is then crystallized into that,
that even that of the flesh may be -with the proper concept, proper
desire in all its purity -consecrated to the LIVING forces as
manifest by the ability in that body so brought into being, as to
make a way of escape for the ERRING man. Hence we have found
throughout the ages, so oft the times when conception of truth became
rampant with free-love, with the desecration of those things that
brought to these in the beginning that of the KNOWLEDGE of their
existence, as to that that may be termed - and betimes became - the
MORAL, or morality OF a people. Yet this same feeling, this same
exaltation that comes from association of kindred bodies - that have
their lives consecrated in a purposefulness, that makes for the
ability of retaining those of the essence of creation in every virile
body - can be made to become the fires that light truth, love, hope,
patience, peace, harmony; for they are EVER the key to those
influences that fire the imaginations of those that are gifted in ANY
form of depicting the high emotions of human experience, whether it
be in the one or the other fields, and hence is judged by those that
may not be able, or through desire submit themselves - as did Amilius
[?] and I [?] to those ELEMENTS, through the forces in the life as
about them.

(Q)
How is the legend of Lilith connected with the period of Amilius? (A)
In the beginning, as was outlined, there was presented that that
became as the Sons of God, in that male and female were as one, with
those abilities for those changes as were able or capable of being
brought about. In the changes that came from those THINGS, as were of
the projections of the abilities of those entities to project, this
as a being came as the companion; and when there was that turning to
the within, through the sources of creation, as to make for the
helpmeet of that as created by the first cause, or of the Creative
Forces that brought into being that as was made, THEN - from out of
self - was brought that as was to be the helpmeet, NOT just companion
of the body. Hence the legend of the associations of the body during
that period before there was brought into being the last of the
creations, which was not of that that was NOT made, but the first of
that that WAS made, and a helpmeet to the body, that there might be
no change in the relationship of the SONS of God WITH those
relationships of the sons and daughters of men. In this then, also
comes that as is held by many who have reached especially to that
understanding of how NECESSARY, then, becomes the PROPER mating of
those souls that may be the ANSWERS one to another of that that may
bring, through that association, that companionship, into being that
that may be the more helpful, more sustaining, more the well-ROUNDED
life or experience of those that are a PORTION one of another. Do not
misinterpret, but knowing that all are OF one - yet there are those
divisions that make for a CLOSER union, when there are the proper
relationships brought about. As an illustration, in this: In the
material world we find there is in the mineral kingdom those elements
that are of the nature as to form a closer union one with another,
and make as for compounds as make for elements that act more in
unison with, or against, other forms of activity in the experience in
the earth's environ, or the earth's force, as makes for those active
forces in the ELEMENTS that are ABOUT the earth. Such as we may find
in those that make for the active forces in that of uranium, and that
of ultramarine, and these make then for an element that becomes the
more active force as with the abilities for the rates of emanation as
may be thrown off from same. So, as illustrated in the union, then,
of - in the PHYSICAL compounds - that as may vibrate, or make for
emanations in the activities of their mental and spiritual, and
material, or physical forces, as may make for a GREATER activity in
this earth environ. Then, there may be seen that as is in an
elemental, or compound, that makes for that as is seen in the
material experience as to become an antipathy for other elements that
are as equally necessary in the experience of man's environ as in the
combination of gases as may produce whenever combined that called
water, and its antipathy for the elements in combustion is easily
seen or known in man's experience. So in those unions of that in the
elemental forces of creative energies that take on the form of man,
either in that of man or woman, with its NATURAL or ELEMENTAL, see?
ELEMENTAL forces of its vibration, with the union of two that vibrate
or respond to those vibrations in self, create for that ideal that
becomes as that, in that created, in the form - as is known as
radium, with its fast emittal vibrations, that brings for active
forces, principles, that makes for such atomic forces within the
active principles of all nature in its active force as to be one of
the elemental bases from which life in its essence, as an active
principle in a material world, has its sources, give off that which
is EVER good - unless abused, see? So in that may there be basis for
THOSE forces, as HAS been, as IS sought, thought, or ATTAINED BY
those who have, through the abilities of the vibrations, to make for
a continued force in self as to meet, know, see, feel, understand,
those sources from which such begets that of its kind, or as those
that become as an antipathy for another, or as makes for those that
makes for the variations in the tempering of the various elements,
compounds, or the like; so, as is seen, THESE - then - the BASIS for
those things as has been given here, there, in their various ways and
manners, as to the companion of, and COMPANIONS of, that that first
able - through its projection of itself and its abilities in the
creation - to bring about that that was either of its OWN making, or
creation, or that given in the beginning to BE the force THROUGH
which there might BE that that would bring ever blessings, good,
right, and love, in even the physical or material world. See?

(Q)
What was meant by the Sons of the Highest in Atlantis and the second
coming of souls to the earth, as mentioned in a life reading given
thru this channel? (A) In this period or age, as was seen - There is
fault of words here to PROJECT that as actually OCCURS in the
FORMATIONS of that as comes about! There was, with the WILL of that
as came into being through the correct channels, of that as created
by the Creator, that of the CONTINUING of the souls in its projection
and projection - see? while in that as was OF the offspring, of that
as pushed itself INTO form to SATISFY, GRATIFY, that of the desire of
that known as carnal forces of the SENSES, of those created, there
continued to be the war one with another, and there were then - FROM
the other SOURCES (worlds) the continuing entering of those that
WOULD make for the keeping of the balance, as of the first purpose of
the Creative Forces, as it magnifies itself in that given sphere of
activity, of that that had been GIVEN the ABILITY to CREATE with its
OWN activity - see? and hence the second, or the CONTINUED entering
of souls into that known as the earth's plane during this period, for
that activity as was brought about. Let's REMEMBER that as was given,
in the second, third from Adam, or fourth, or from Amilius, there was
"In that day did they CALL UPON the NAME of the Lord" - is
right! and ever, when the elements that make for littleness,
uncleanness, are crucified in the body, the SPIRIT of the Lord, of
God, is present! When these are overbalanced, so that the body
(physical), the mental man, the imagination of its heart, is evil, or
his purpose is evil, then is that war continuing - as from the
beginning. Just the continued warring of those things within self as
from the beginning; for with these changes as brought SIN into the
world, with same came the FRUITS of same, or the seed as of sin,
which we see in the material world as those things that corrupt good
ground, those that corrupt the elements that are of the compounds of
those of the first causes, or elementals, and pests are seen - and
the like, see? So does it follow throughout all creative forces, that
the fruits of that as is active brings that seed that makes for the
corrupting of, or the clearing of, in the activative forces of, that
BEING acted upon.

The
center or beginning of these projections (of the human soul) was in
Atlantis.

The
Atlanteans, in the present day way of thinking, as to what is meant
by occult or mystic science; for the NATURAL trend - or the NATURAL
condition of individuals, or entities - was the USE of these; as it
is natural to eat!
READING:
364-10
Yes.
In understanding, then, in the present terminology, occult science,
or psychic science - (as known to the people in Atlantis) as seen,
this was the natural or nature's activity in that experience, and not
termed a science - any more than would be the desire for food by a
new born babe. It is seen that individuals in the beginning were more
of thought forms than individual entities with personalities as seen
in the present. Their projections into the realms that pertain to a
developing or evolving world of matter, Of the expressions or
attributes in the various things about the individual, or body,
through which such phenomena as would be termed - became manifest.
Hence we find occult or psychic science, as would be called at the
present, was rather the natural state of man in the beginning.

as has been given, even unto the four hundred thousandth generation

When
there is a manifestation of a psychic force, in, upon, of or for, an
individual, there is then the rolling back of a portion of the
physical consciousness - or that mental trained individual
consciousness and there is then a visioning, as may be called with
the second sight, that accompanying thought body of such a one,
manifesting in much the way and manner as individuals in the
Atlantean period of psychic and occult development brought about in
their experience. Through such projections there came about that
first necessity of the division of the body, to conform to those
necessities of that as seen in its own mental vision as builded
(MENTAL now - Don't confuse these terms) Hence the greater
development of that called occult, or psychic forces, during the
Atlantean period - and the use of same, and the abuse of same - was
during its first thousand years. Or those that partook of carnal to
the gratification of that that brought about its continual HARDENING
and less ability to harken back through that from WHICH it came.

In
Atlantis, of the thought forms projected into Earth, some brought
about monstrosities, as those of its (that entity's) association by
its projection with its association with beasts of various
characters. Hence those of the Styx, satyr, and the like; those of
the sea, or mermaid; those of the unicorn, and those of the various
forms. These projections of what? The abilities in the PHYCHIC
forces, psychic meaning, then, of the mental AND the soul.
READING:
364-12
As
those people that were projections upon this plane of man's making
began to multiply, and to attach themselves to the various activities
that were necessary for self-preservation and propagation, and
developed concepts of self, the ego, the I Am, they began to seek
gratification of those forces manifest in their material beings;
desire for amusement, desire for the preserving of thoughts (records
of their material involvment), rather than towards their continued
associations with the Source. The "its", now, is the man!

Entity
was in those experiences in the Atlantean land, before those periods
of the second upheavals or before the lands were divided into the
isles. The entity was among those of the household of the leaders of
the One, and made for and aided in the attempts to establish for
those that were developing or incoming from the thought forces into
physical manifestations to gain the concept of what their activities
should be to develop towards a perfection in physical body, losing
many of those appurtenanes that made for hindrances for the better
activities in the experience. And the entity gained and lost in the
experience. For, while in the office of the priestess in the temple
of the One, the entity lost in the associations of the carnal
influences in relationships to those in the same activity. Yet, the
entity gained in the greater portion of the abilities to make for
disseminating truths to others.

READING:
618-3
Entity
was in the Atlantean land, during those periods when there were the
encasements and indulgencies of many that had put on matter or
material bodies. This the entity lost in; these becoming, as it were,
the hindrances for the greater service towards the greater
activities. Hence we find in the present experience of the entity
those periods when there is almost a harking back to those abilities
of the entity and those associated with same, to use nature's
activity for not only the transition of body to space, or space to
the use of the material things, but the abilities also to separate
self, to VISIT - as it were - in the records of many in the past.
READING:
866-1
Entity
was in that now known as the Atlantean land, during those periods
when there were the first of the sons of men coming for their
expression into matter. The entity then was among the sons of Axarz,
that were of the Law of One, as related to finding expression in the
gratifying of the desires of flesh or of matter in its expressions in
this materiality.
ALSO IN: Followers of the Law of One
READING:
1406-1
Again
we find an experience in the Atlantean land, when there were those
disturbing forces - or just previous to the first disturbing forces
that brought the first destruction in the continent, through the
application of spiritual things for self-indulgences of material
peoples. Those were the periods as termed in thy Scripture when "The
sons of God looked upon the daughters of men, and saw them as being
fair." In the experience the entity held fast to the Law of One.
ALSO IN: Atlanteans and Ancient Earth Changes
READING:
1416-1
Before
that we find the entity was in the Atlantean land, during those
periods when there were the divisions between those of the Law of One
and the sons of Belial, and the offspring of what was the pure race
and those that had projected themselves into creatures that became as
the sons of men (as the terminology would be) rather than the
creatures of God. The entity then was among the princes of the Law of
One, and made overtures oft that brought into the experience many of
those turmoils and misinterpretations.
ALSO IN: Conflict between
Belial and Law of One
READING:
2126-1
In
the one before this we find in that land known then as the upper
Atlantean, during those periods when there were the entering of many
that took bodily form for the dispersing of the thoughts given by the
lords of the land. The entity was then used rather as the experiment
in the associations with the various conditions, and brought much
that to the present way of thought or mind would be abhorrent; yet
the ENTITY gained through the experience, for it kept close to that
which sought to find the expression of the spiritual forces, and
brought forth in the body that one who later BLESSED the land.
READING:
2454-3
Entity
was in the Atlantean land, when there were those activities when one
individual first saw those changes that eventually made for that
opening for the needs of, or the preparation for, the Universal
Consciousness to bring into the experience what is known to man as
the first created man. THIS entity was the companion of that
beginning of activity in the Atlantean land. Thus, not as the mother
of creation of those activities, but as an advisor to those who would
change in their form of activities; or the attempts as later
expressed in the entity of being rid of the appendages of
materiality.
READING:
2771-1
Entity
was in the Atlantean land, - and a priestess in the children of the
law of One; of those activities that had to do with the interpreting
of the actions which brought more and more that purpose from which
there arose the needs for the entering of the perfect man into the
earth as a man, - which became apparent in the experience of the
Princess Ussa.
READING:
5056-1
Entity
was in the Atlantean land and in those periods before Adam was in the
earth. The entity was among those who were then "thought
projections", and the physical being had the union of sex in the
one body, and yet a real musician on pipes or reed instruments.
READING:
5249-1
As
to the experiences, in the Atlantean land the entity was the
timekeeper for those who were called things, or the servants, or the
workers of the peoples and the entity felt latent and manifest, as in
the present, the wanting to reform, to change things, so that every
individual soul had the right to freedom of speech, freedom of
thought, freedom of activity. For to the entity, even in those
periods of man's unfoldment (for this was before Adam), the entity
found during its activities the desire to improve, to make better
those environs for the workers of that period. That alone brought
into the entity's consciousness man's position, the need of a
pattern. And the entity saw, the entity felt the need of God's hand
in what evil, or Satan, had brought in the earth.
