may the entity, the soul of this entity, become aware—through meditating upon those understandings, those truths that are as examples, as witnesses in the earth and its environs—of that which magnifies the Spirit in the earth of the first manifestation that man calls God and His holy angels.
“(Q) Was the entity the one that, at the completion of the pyramid, clanged the sheet of metal?
“(A) Clanged the sheet of metal [that was the capstone to the Great Pyramid] at the completion of Gizeh, that sealed the records in the tomb yet to be discovered.
“(Q) Please describe incident and ceremony.
“(A) The apex [capstone of the Great Pyramid] that has been long since removed by the sons of Heth [great grandson of Noah through his son Ham and Ham’s son Canaan; Heth is considered to be the ancestor of the Hittites, also Hethites, see Genesis 10 and 23], the crown or apex [capstone], was of metal; that was to be indestructible, being of copper, brass and gold with other alloys that were prepared by those of the period.” In another reading Cayce commented again about Heth, speaking to one of his reincarnated daughters: “The entity then was among the daughters of Heth from whom Abraham purchased the land near Socoh.” (Genesis 23, ten miles SW of Hebron)
“And, as this was to be (Gizeh we are speaking of) the place for the initiates and their gaining by personal application, and by the journey or journeys through the various activities—as in the ceremonial actions of those that became initiates, it became very fitting (to those as in Ra, and those of Ra-Ta Ra [a name used after Ra-Ta had “awakened to the Ra within him”) that there should be the crowning or placing of this symbol of the record [capstone], and of the initiates’ place of activity, by one who represented both the old and the new; one representing then the Sons of the Law in Atlantis, Lemuria, Oz, and Og. So, he that keeps the record, that keeps shut, or Hept-supht, was made or chosen as the one to seal that in the tomb.
“The ceremony was long; the clanging of the apex [metallic capstone] by the gavel that was used in the sounding of the placing. Hence there has arisen from this ceremony many of those things that may be seen in the present; as the call to prayer, the church bell in the present, may be termed a descendant; the sounding of the trumpet as the call to arms, or that as revelry; the sound as of those that make for mourning, in the putting away of the body; the sounding as of ringing in the new year, the sounding as of the coming of the bridegroom; all have their inception from the sound that was made that kept the earth’s record of the earth’s building, as to that from the change. The old record in Gizeh is from that as recorded from the journey to Pyrenees [the initial migration from sinking Atlantis to higher ground; the Pyrenees are a mountain range between Spain and France]; and to 1998 from the death of the Son of Man as a man.” Here Cayce is identifying three key stages in the ascent of the children of God to their rightful place: (1) migrate from the old ways, old lands to higher ground, or higher consciousness, leaving those old ways behind; (2) crucify earthly desire in self so that the real self may come through, and die to possessiveness of selfishness and self-seeking (death of the Son of Man as a man); and (3) the cycle comes around again beginning in 1998 as a new era, a new age begins, and the greater opportunities present themselves again.
“(Q) Give a prayer to awaken the best in me now.
“(A) So let my life now shine unto others that they may know that Thou, O God, would speak and meet those I meet day by day. Create in me a pure heart. Renew a righteous soul within me, O God!”

THE MISSION OF THE SECOND CREATION
According to Cayce’s readings of the Akashic record, this early period in ancient Egypt’s birth closely followed the dramatic cleansing of the planet by the legendary Great Flood as recorded in Genesis 6. The time following the flood was a time for repopulating the earth with new bodies, and these would be more physical bodies. Originally, the children of God projected themselves into this world as phantoms, as ghosts. In fact, the name Lemur, as in Lemuria, means ghost, coming from a Latin word referring to the “spirits” of the dead—but these early souls were immortal, having never tasted death. The Great Flood was the symbolic marker of the end of the first creation and the beginning of the second. In the second creation, now deeper into matter and physicality, the children of God would experience the cycles of this reality, which included day and night, wake and sleep, and life and death. Of course, there really was no death for the immortal godlings, but they came to think there was. The Maya have a legend that tells how the Lords of the Underworld (forces of the lower realms of mind) tricked the immortal children of God into playing a game in which the penalty for losing was death (loss of consciousness). This was symbolized in the Mesoamerican legends by the act of decapitation of the loser’s physical body. The godlings were actually spirit-minds temporarily inhabiting the physical body, and the death of the body was not death of the godling. Even so, it had an overwhelming impact on the consciousness of the godlings. In the Garden of Eden’s story, the serpent’s whisper to Eve was that she would “not surely die” if she ate of the apple—but it was going to be such a profound impact upon her consciousness that she would be as if dead consciously, losing celestial awareness from the overwhelming weight of material consciousness.
Cayce’s visions observed that many (not all) of the minds and souls of God’s children willfully pushed their way into matter and materiality before it was prepared for them. This was taking them out of the natural oneness of heavenly existence and separating them into individual projections. In Genesis 2:18 God observes that this created a sense of loneliness in them, and it was not good for them. Even worse, since the only physical bodies existing at that time were animal bodies, Cayce and ancient mythology reveal that their spirit-minds became contaminated with animal features, such as feathers, scales, fur, and even major body parts, resulting in mixed-up beings that were half man and half horse (centaurs), half man and half lion (sphinxes), half woman and half fish (sirens and mermaids)! All of these liminal beings had to be cleansed of their confused mixture and reoriented to their ideal form and vibration—mentally as well as physically. And a human body was needed. Sadly, even when a body for God’s children was formed, the minds of many souls were now so polluted with animal imagery and vibrations that when properly incarnated in good human bodies, they manifested remnant animal features, mutating the chromosomes as their mental forces and vibrations influenced cell division and specialization. The complete removal of these pollutants was one of the services of the earliest temples in ancient Egypt, known as the Temple of Sacrifice.
Even so, the primary problem was the separation from oneness into what may be called “manyness.” It was a massive individuation progression that broke the collective consciousness of the souls into individual selves. According to Cayce’s perspective, self and selfishness were and remain the cause of evil and destructiveness. When an individual soul is conscious of its oneness with the whole of creation, it naturally expresses goodness and creativity. But when perceiving oneself as separate, the lower mind does not see that harm to others is harm to oneself.
The massive water cleansing of the earth through the Great Flood came as a result of growing selfishness, self-gratification, self-exaltation, tyranny, and cruelty of one group over another, and godlessness in most every heart. Two factional soul groups developed among incarnating souls. Cayce referred to them as the children of the Law of One, who attempted to hold onto the original oneness, versus the Sons of Belial (pronounced bell-ee-al or bell-aisle), who taught and practiced survival of the fittest: get all you can get for yourself, there is no oneness, the strong should dominate and use the weak, even as slaves. Genesis records that “the Lord regretted making humankind, and it grieved him to his heart.” The Lord then exclaimed, “I will destroy humanity whom I have created from the surface of the ground . . . for I
