About Mark Ruffner
When I was in my twenties, my grandmother shared some curious information about her landlord. He was a renowned brain surgeon whose ground-breaking innovations were the stuff of text books. It seems that once a year, the doctor would travel to Virginia Beach where he’d pore over the files and transcriptions of Edgar Cayce. Cayce, as you might know, was an early Twentieth Century seer who would regularly slip into a state of super consciousness and dictate healings on request, whether followers were present or at a distance.
The Gladys Davis Perspective
I had never heard of Cayce, but I was intrigued that a very successful man of medicine and science would be consulting the files of a prophet who had died decades earlier. And so I immersed myself in the life and writings of Edgar Cayce. I was particularly drawn to the story of Gladys Davis, his secretary. She was the person who attended every session, sitting quietly as the seer fell into a deep sleep and began dictating from Oneness. It was she who spent decades as a stenographer, recording in shorthand thousands of amazing cures, life readings, and prophesies. As fascinating as Cayce was, I imagined what it would be like to have Gladys’ experience.
Messages from the Masters
Our imagination is a powerful component in creating our reality, and twenty years later I served as the stenographer of an elderly woman named Eileen, who channeled just like Cayce did. She and I would meditate once a week, and gradually she would drift into another state that would allow master souls to speak through her. For six years, I recorded the words and wisdom of St. Germain, Seraphis Bey, and others too.
Their mission was to provide the keys to ascension. That might sound like a bunch of religiosity, but quite simply they were talking about how everything is energy, and if we could speed the vibration of our own energy, we could move to a higher, more peaceful dimension.
Within another twenty years I was also channeling, not like Eileen, but in a form of journaling. St. Germain and Seraphis Bey still visit me, and I hear their words in my mind, slowly revealing the answers to my questions. Sometimes I ask for dream interpretations, and sometimes I ask health questions, but they continue to reveal answers to the process of self-transformation, which is their enduring goal.
It’s human nature that when you commune with master souls and guides, you try to get a sense of their personality, and you wonder how they might appear. They are so loving and wise, it’s easy to want to relate to them in the same way that you’d share coffee with a friend at the kitchen table.
Such souls do indeed retain personality and individuality, but they have moved far beyond such limitation. They are quick to remind us that they are first and foremost energy and aspects of Oneness, just as you are, too.
