Daily for over forty years of his adult life, Cayce would lie down on a couch with his hands folded over his stomach and allow himself to enter a self-induced sleep state. Then, provided with the name and location of an individual anywhere in the world he would speak in a normal voice and give answers to any questions about that person that he was asked. These answers, which came to be called "readings" were written down by a stenographer, who kept one copy on file and sent another to the person who had requested the information.

In my view, that approach to understanding Cayce is downright perverse. Not powers but relationship was at the center of his life. The relationship yielded powers, to be sure. Great love does. Out of a deep and rich relationship, new life and new forms spring, ranging from children to selfless sacrifice, from new-baked bread to a symphony to paranormal insight. Cayce’s central relationship was with “the Father,” most often as he found Him shown in “the Son,” the Galilean whom he called “the Master.” Out of Cayce’s awed and tender devotion, tested and toughened by his failures, he found remarkable results in capacities to help others, as gifts to some degree – but never fully – available at his call. The point is this: the cry of his heart was not for greater powers. It was for a fuller relationship with his Lord. We who easily lust after being psychic run the risk of caricaturing Cayce. We stand him on his head.
