EXCERPTS ON PRAYER & MEDITATION FROM THE CAYCE
READINGS
Let thy prayer, thy meditation, be
as this:
Here am I; use me, O God, as Thou seest I have
need of that I (calling thy name) may know what Thou would have me
do! Let my attitude to my fellow man, mine loved ones, mine
friends, mine enemies, be such that my life, my expressions of hope
and joy and kindness, may reflect His life to others. Keep my
tongue, keep my feet, in those ways, in those paths, that lead to
the understandings Thou wouldst have me have - now. (770-1)
And let the meditation and the prayer ever be, of
those that would aid:
RAISE THOU, O GOD, IN THIS BODY, THAT WHICH IS THE BEST AS THOU SEEST
FIT; THAT THERE MAY BE THE HARMONY THAT COMES IN THY LOVE FOR THIS SOUL.
(899-1)
When the Radio-Active Appliance is attached, use such
periods as the periods for meditation. In thy own words, yes - but
after this manner ...
FATHER, GOD! IN THY PROMISES, THROUGH JESUS THE CHRIST, I CLAIM
THY PROTECTION, THY LOVE, THY CARE! MAKE MY BODY THAT THOU SEEST
AS THE BETTER CHANNEL, THE BEST CHANNEL AS A SERVICE TO THEE.
RENEW A RIGHTEOUS SPIRIT WITHIN ME. KEEP MY WAYS DAY BY DAY.
(1614-1)
During the periods especially when there is the use
of the Radio-Active Appliance, we would use these periods as the periods
for meditation; that there may be brought a better coordination between
the nervous systems of the body, at such periods opening - through suggestions
to self in meditation or prayer - the centers that coordinate the spiritual
forces and influences with the mental and the physical body; using as
a guide (though in thine own words) such as this:
FATHER, GOD! IN THY LOVE, IN THY MERCY, BE THOU THE GUIDE: THAT
MY BODY, MY MIND, MY SELF, MAY FULFILL THY PURPOSE IN THIS MATERIAL PLANE
AT THIS TIME.
And keeping such attitudes in the relationships day
by day with thy fellow man, we will find we will bring the near normal
forces in this body. (2164-1)
After the end of the first series of adjustments,
at the beginning of the rest period of a week, we would begin with the
use of the Radio-Active Appliance to equalize the nerve energies of the
body as related to the circulatory system, and especially as to the impulses
to the body. Attach this about an hour each day. Use that period
as the period for prayer and meditation; though it may require someone
at first to work WITH the body when this is first begun. And have
the prayerful meditation for the HELPFUL forces, not only those that may
exercise themselves through the system but as to the body using itself
- mentally, physically - in a helpful manner for others. (2382-1)
