Devolution & Evolution of the Soul

Kathy Callahan's book is a priceless treasure of who we really are, where we've been and where we are going.....if we desire to pay the price (of self) for awakening. It is a wonderous book for the seeker, the Sufi (seeking the path of the heart), to reconnect with how loving God, the Friend, the Beloved really is and how much he cares for us in our long journeys away (devolving) and returning (evolving) back to himI find myself returning to her book over and over again, when I have questions about the nature of the soul, about how easy it is to become entrapped in materiality and how to move towards the way of the Christ.For many, this book may seem arcane or obtuse, filled as it is with a history of humanity's journey based on a mystic/seer named Edgar Cayce, who died almost 60 years ago. However, for those of us who came to the Christ precisely because of how he was 're'-presented in the Cayce readings, Kathy Callahan's account of our Origins & Destiny is a touchstone, a wellspring of joy and insight for me to use, in conjunction with other Scripture and practice, as a means of focus, of alignment, so we too can both 'remember and return' to who we were and, more importantly, who we will be, after experiencing and overcoming the earth.Kathy Callahan's book is especially powerful for me for several other reasons as well. She offers a role into the Christ that is truly 'Cosmic' in origin, providing a richness and opportunity for appreciation as to how He truly is 'The Way' for all souls, beyond any religions desire to bind His role to their participants insistence on how His reality MUST be. This is especially appropriate for those who insist that THEIR reality, their beliefs ARE the correct ones and brings to mind Rumi's admonition that 'once we have arrived back home, all arguments as to the various roads there become meaningless'. Kathy's descriptions of the 'larger' view of the soul allow us to transcend our petty differences, that are so prevalent at this level of awareness and provide us an opportunity to see that we are indeed, ALL of God's children and it is totally up to US, to begin to see that 'the Light', is indeed 'Our collective and individual Light' that must be reattuned to, not via power, but via His way, the way of Love. Next, although she doesn't explicity address same, Kathy offers some very insightful into the problems inherent in promiscious sexuality and how souls experience tremendous problems when their focus is on experiencing the 'pleasures of the flesh' and the entrappment/addiction resulting from their desires. Although it is almost taboo to even discuss the possibilities of universal laws in today's culture, Cayce's description of becoming so engrossed in the flesh, that we become lost to our true nature, that of beings of light, of souls. Instead, we risk becoming entrapped in the 'thought forms' of our own creation. Both excessive Promisciousness and homosexuality, may be seen from this perspective as an r
