It was 1923, and a man named Arthur Lammers was receiving a psychic reading from Edgar Cayce when, for the first time in the readings, a person's past life was mentioned. From that point on, Edgar Cayce would give life readings (the second largest group of readings in the over 14,000 given by him), which often discussed how people's past lives were affecting them in their current life. Jaffin has pulled together invaluable insights on reincarnation and our purpose here on earth from the rich source of these Cayce readings to give us a deeper understanding of reincarnation in all its many aspects, physically, spiritually and mentally, while explaining how it supports us as we strive to fulfil the very purpose of our souls. PAST LIVES AND PRESENT KARMA will give readers a deeper understanding of reincarnation and why it may be responsible for the people in your life today. Finally, Jaffin takes the reader beyond life on earth and into the role that planetary sojourns play as given by the psychic readings of Edgar Cayce.
