Metaphysics

From examining Cayce's readings, metaphysics appears as a harmonious integration of body, mind, and soul - what he called "the harmonious triune". His approach to metaphysics was unique in that it bridged spiritual understanding with practical applications for physical wellbeing.

The scientific aspect of Cayce's work is reflected in attempts to study and validate his psychic phenomena through academic channels. There were efforts to interest universities like Duke and Columbia in conducting systematic research into the psychic laws demonstrated through his readings⁠. This shows an early attempt to bridge metaphysical insights with scientific investigation.

Cayce's metaphysical framework emphasized the interconnection between spiritual, mental and physical planes. His readings demonstrated that these forces could be harmonized "towards the purpose of being a help, an assistance, an aid to others"⁠⁠. This approach suggested that metaphysical principles could have practical applications in healing and personal development.

Parapsychology

The parapsychological aspects of Cayce's work included several key phenomena:

• Communication with the spirit plane, which was documented and organized systematically to be understood by the conscious mind
• Psychic forces and their physical manifestations, demonstrated through phenomena such as the "collaboration of psychic forces meeting together from each vibration"
• Dream interpretation and consciousness studies, where experiences were analyzed for both physical and metaphysical understanding

 

His work covered a broad range of parapsychological topics including:

• Dream symbolism and interpretation
• Past lives and reincarnation concepts
• Prophetic visions
• Mind-body connections

 

There were attempts to validate these phenomena through formal scientific investigation, as evidenced by projects like the Scientific American Magazine's investigation into psychic phenomena. This represents early efforts to bridge parapsychological experiences with scientific methodology.
