Edgar Cayce Reading # 2533-8

"Children, have ye anything here to eat?"

5. (Q) Is the transmutation of human flesh to flesh divine the real mystery of the Crucifixion and Resurrection? Explain this mystery.

(A) There is no mystery to the transmutation of the body of the Christ.

For having attained in the physical consciousness the at-onement with the Father-Mother-God, the completeness was such that with the disintegration of the body – as indicated in the manner in which the shroud, the robe, the napkin lay – there was then the taking of the body-physical form.

This was the manner.

It was not a transmutation, as of changing from one to another.

Just as indicated in the manner in which the body-physical entered the Upper Room with the doors closed, not by being a part of the wood through which the body passed but by forming from the ether waves that were within the room, because of a meeting prepared by faith.

For as had been given, "Tarry ye in Jerusalem – in the upper chamber – until YE be endued with power from on high."

As indicated in the spoken word to Mary in the garden, "Touch me not, for I have not yet ascended to my Father."

The body (flesh) that formed that seen by the normal or carnal eye of Mary was such that it could not be handled until there had been the conscious union with the sources of all power, of all force.

But afterward – when there had been the first, second, third, fourth and even the sixth meeting – He THEN said

"Put forth thy hand and touch the nail prints in my hands, in my feet. Thrust thy hand into my side and BELIEVE."

This indicated the transformation.

For as indicated when the soul departs from a body (this is not being spoken of the Christ, you see), it has all of the form of the body from which it has passed – yet it is not visible to the carnal mind unless that mind has been, and is, attuned to the infinite.

Then it appears, in the infinite, as that which may be handled, with all the attributes of the physical being; with the appetites, until these have been accorded to a unit of activity with universal consciousness.

Just as it was with the Christ-body

"Children, have ye anything here to eat?"

This indicated to the disciples and the Apostles present that this was not transmutation but a regeneration, recreation of the atoms and cells of body that might, through desire, masticate material things – fish and honey (in the honeycomb) were given.

As also indicated later, when He stood by the sea and the disciples and Apostles who saw Him from the distance could not, in the early morning light, discern – but when He spoke, the voice made the impression upon the mind of the beloved disciple such that he spoke, "It is the Lord!"

The body had prepared fire upon the earth – fire, water, the elements that make for creation.

For as the spirit is the beginning, water combined of elements is the mother of creation.

Not transmutation of flesh but creation, in the pattern indicated.

Just as when there are those various realms about the solar system in which each entity may find itself when absent from the body, it takes on in those other realms not an earthly form but a pattern – conforming to the same dimensional elements of that individual planet or space.
