ARE Remembrances
Gloria Swanson The actress, Gloria Swanson, was a friend of Lucille Kahn and also a patient of Dr. Harold Reilly. She was with Lucille at the ARE conference in the 1970’s when I told her about my musical of The Revelation. My interaction with Gloria Swanson was when she was with Lucille. Although it is likely that, as a friend of Lucille with similar interests she had received a life reading from Edgar Cayce, the only reading for a movie actress, which appears that it could apply to her is no longer in the files. However, several readings were given by Cayce beginning in 1924 on a scenario for a screenplay: A Bride of the Incal, (4908-1-7) requested by Thomas B. Brown for his friend, Gloria Swanson. Audrey Kargere Audrey Kargere was a designer and lecturer. I had met her earlier in the 1960’s at an ARE Conference over by the United Nations. Someone pointed her out and said, do you know who she had been and went on to tell me the name of a biblical character. It struck a memory and from that moment on I felt a certain empathy with Audrey that remained throughout the years and would be kindled at various events and conferences. However, I would not become aware of our connection until many years later. Audrey Kargere was one of the most significant persons in the Cayce files. Her reading is uniquely outstanding in that it says most of her incarnations were not only unusual, but her actions in them influenced the world’s choices. In fact, the history of the world would be totally different if not for her actions! While she is not listed individually in The Cayce Soul Group, she is listed as an associate of the closer members. Her incarnations certainly followed the prominent ones of those in the group: the Ra-Ta period in Egypt, the Holy Land during Old Testament times, Palestine during the time of Jesus and France during the time of the Louis’. The later incarnation seemingly was being met greatly in her present life in which she had a similar first and last name, and the same profession. Having been a designer during the time of the Louis’, when fashion reached a ridiculous height, influenced her present life, which appeared to be an annoyance to others who were anxious to cast the first stone. Audrey was a colorful character, to say the least, who presented tests, “opportunities,” to people, many of whom in their ignorance were blinded by their sight, so they were not able to past the tests and readily “cast stones at her.” I saw Audrey last around 1998 when she would have been around 88 years old. She had written a book, Color and Personality, which seemed to somehow be connected to far memory and is a clue to her past life in Egypt, one that, of course, still affects all of humanity. At this time she gave a talk at the ARE of NY on 28^th St. about her first encounters with Edgar Cayce, her relationship with her father and a trip to India. I found it engrossing and full of ARE history that is now lost. I communicated with Audrey every night for about a week in the dream state where we did a makeover (the French incarnation), because I wanted so much to help her. Her Old Testament incarnation is a vital part of a required course at Science of Light Seminary and her Egyptian incarnation is always mentioned in the Biblical studies with Noah and The Revelation. Her incarnation during the time of Jesus is mentioned and the key words quoted as a lesson over and over by preachers and teachers everywhere. As her reading says, her influence is still here. My remembrances of Audrey before our last meeting are documented for posterity in my book, ARE Remembrances (p.15, 51) and her past lives are in the Who Was Who. Follow the clues.

About The Edgar Cayce Soul Group
A majority of persons who had Life Readings from Edgar Cayce had incarnations in ancient Egypt around 10,500 -10,400 B.C. during the period when Ra-Ta (an incarnation of Edgar Cayce) was the high priest. The Readings indicated that those people had been attracted to the work of Edgar Cayce. Within this wide group, was a smaller group of people, some of whom were physical relatives who were intimately involved with Cayce in the development of the Association of Research and Enlightenment. Some members incarnated at various other times with Cayce, or incarnated as a group weaving intricate patterns of karma to be met. They incarnated as a group in Persia when Cayce was Uhjltd, the grandfather of Zoroaster, in the court of the Louis’ in France and in Ft. Dearborn in early America. Many also incarnated in Atlantis, during the Biblical exodus and the return from captivity of the Jews, and when the master walked in the earth and during the early Christian era. All of the Readings were given file numbers, which preserved the identity of the person to whom the Reading was given. For anonymity all persons are identified by reading numbers, except in those cases where individuals consented to be identified, or have been identified in previous publications.

About the Who Was Who
In the early 1970's while I was living in Virginia Beach, I conceived the idea to write a book about the incarnations of Edgar Cayce. I told Gladys Davis about this. She thought it was an excellent idea and gave the project her blessings. In the process of researching the lives of Edgar Cayce, because the material was so fascinating, it was a major effort to stay focused and not get caught up in a maze of characters from Atlantis to Early America and not stray into those others side lives. After months of research in the library, I came up with a synopsis and outline of the chapters, which I submitted to Hugh Lynn and Gladys. Being a playwright, I used some of the dramatic vernacular, like "setting the stage," the "cast of characters," etc. Hugh Lynn thought the book was a good idea, but felt that the time was not right, because they hoped to have a film of Edgar Cayce coming out soon. He thought it would conflict with the movie (which, unfortunately, never got made). More than twenty years later, the original research that I painstakingly did in 1973, before the readings were available on CD Rom, became the basis for the Who Was Who. Published in 1996, it not only documented the incarnations of the Edgar Cayce soul group, but listed the complete 7,499 entries gleaned from the 1,919 Life Readings and incarnations of others given through association. Relatives and acquaintances often incarnated in the same eras and were advised to parallel their Readings for past relationships, which was done in the Who Was Who. With the exception of 150 universally recognized prominent personages, most of the incarnations were of ordinary people. A few noted persons, like Nicodemus and Bartholomew were mentioned in other types of readings for those individuals or in Life Readings for other people. Judas was confirmed as being a present acquaintance of one of the soul group. Past lives of some prominent persons like Henry Ford (See [464]) and the Duke of Windsor (See [3031]) (who were in the earth plane at the time of the individual Readings) also came through. Most significantly, the past incarnations of Jesus and many more of the characters that interacted with Him, were identified by name. (Continued on pp (v-ix) of the Who Was Who)

First To the Classes… (254 series)
The early books printed by the ARE Press were booklets stapled in the middle and displayed face front for sale. They were treasure troves of information on specific subjects gleaned from the akashic level by the sleeping Edgar Cayce. Those booklets, that are now collector’s items, became the publishing model for Astral Projections Press books that focused on independently verifying that information.
