Creation and Evolution. Edgar Cayce
information, given through this channel on the Lost Continent of Atlantis, a copy of which I hold in my hand. You will answer the questions which I will ask regarding this:
EC: Yes, we have the information as has been transcribed here. Ready for questions.
(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) How long did it take for the division into male and female?
(A) That depends upon which, or what branch or line is considered. When there was brought into being that as of the projection of that created by that created, this took a period of evolutionary—or, as would be in the present year, fourscore and six year. That as brought into being as was of the creating of that that became a portion of, of that that was already created by the creator, that brought into being as were those of the forces of nature itself. God said, “Let there be light” and there was light! God said, “Let there be life” and there was life!
(Q) Were the thought forms that were able to push themselves out of themselves inhabited by souls, or were they of the animal kingdom?
(A) That as created by that created, of the animal kingdom. That created as by the Creator, with the soul . . .
(Q) Please give the important re-incarnations of Adam in the world’s history.
(A) In the beginning as Amilius, as Adam, as Melchizedek, as Zend [?], as Ur [?] [Enoch? GD’s note: Perhaps Ur was prehistory person [364–9, Par. 3-A] who established Ur of the Chaldees? I don’t think he was mentioned anywhere else in the readings as an incarnation of Jesus.], as Asaph [?] [Songs of Asaph? See Ps. 81:5 indicating that Joseph and Asaph were one and the same?], as Jesus [Jeshua]—Joseph—Jesus. [See 364–9, Par. 3-A.] Then, as that coming into the world in the second coming—for He will come again and receive His own, who have prepared themselves through that belief in Him and acting in that manner; for the spirit is abroad, and the time draws near, and there will be the reckoning of those even as in the first so in the last, and the last shall be first; for there is that Spirit abroad—He standeth near. He that hath eyes to see, let him see. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear that music of the coming of the Lord of this vineyard, and art thou ready to give account of that thou hast done with thine opportunity in the earth as the Sons of God, as the heirs and joint heirs of glory with the Son? Then make thine paths straight, for there must come an answering for that thou hast done with thine Lord! He will not tarry, for having overcome He shall appear even as the Lord and Master. Not as one born, but as one that returneth to His own, for He will walk and talk with men of every clime, and those that are faithful and just in their reckoning shall be caught up with Him to rule and to do judgment for a thousand years!
Reading 364–6
(Q) How large was Atlantis during the time of Amilius?
(A) Comparison, that of Europe including Asia in Europe—not Asia, but Asia in Europe—see? This composed, as seen, in or after the first of the destructions, that which would be termed now—with the present position—the southernmost portion of same—islands as created by those of the first (as man would call) volcanic or eruptive forces brought into play in the destruction of same.
(Q) Was Atlantis one large continent, or a group of large islands?
(A) Would it not be well to read just that given? Why confuse in the questionings? As has been given, what would be considered one large continent, until the first eruptions brought those changes—from what would now, with the present position of the earth in its rotation, or movements about its sun, through space, about Arcturus, about the Pleiades, that of a whole or one continent. Then with the breaking up, producing more of the nature of large islands, with the intervening canals or ravines, gulfs, bays or streams, as came from the various elemental forces that were set in motion by this charging—as it were—of the forces that were collected as the basis for those elements that would produce destructive forces, as might
