All souls were created in the beginning, all spirit of one spirit, Spirit of God, that spirit manifest in flesh, that spirit manifest in all creation, whether of earthly forces or Universal forces, all spirit being one spirit.
— Edgar Cayce reading 900-70
“We were with God in the beginning and, through choice and experience, we found ourselves cut off from a complete awareness of Spirit.
In one respect, the fall of humankind was really our descent in consciousness from the realms of infinity to those of time and space. However, this was not necessarily a ‘bad’ thing or an erroneous choice.
Just as a child learns through experience, by making choices, and even by making mistakes along the way, our own experiences will help our souls to mature, and that process will enable us to come into our full heritage and an awareness of our true spiritual nature.”
