Encyclopedia > Law of One

The Law of One is a spiritual notion that can be traced to Edgar Cayce and various trance channelers. See: Spirituality Spiritual music Spiritual dance The Age of Spiritual Machines Spiritual possession The Four Spiritual Laws Wholism External links Spiritual service This is a disambiguation page — a navigational aid which lists other pages that might otherwise share the same title. ... — Edgar Cayce (March 18, 1877 – January 3, 1945) was known in the press by the titles The Sleeping Prophet and Americas Greatest Mystic. Edgar Cayce is known as one of Americas most famous psychics, although he himself would probably have preferred to be viewed as a healer, rather... According to Websters Dictionary: the practice of professedly entering a meditative or trancelike state in order to convey messages from a spiritual guide. ...


The most important belief within the Law of One is that "All is One, One is All." Following from this, and also reflecting the Golden Rule found in most religions, the Law of One holds that each should treat others as they would want to be treated themselves. The rationale held by the Law of One is that since everyone is all ultimately One, in hurting another one is ultimately hurting oneself. Golden Rule has several meanings: Golden Rule - in philosophy and Christianity (Gospel of Matthew chapter 7, verse 12), an ethical statement, also known as the Ethic of Reciprocity. ...


The religious texts of the Law of One are derived from most major religions, under the premise that all religious figures in the past were speaking of an aspect of the One. However, since the Law of One also holds that established religions have twisted the true meanings of received wisdom in order to exert popular control, texts that are not officially recognized by these religions may also be studied, such as gospels left out of the Bible. The holy jewish scripture: The Torah. ...


Although being monotheistic as its name suggests, the Law of One also allows for the existence of all other religious deities. Believing each person to be on his or her own spiritual journey, it advises its followers to be open-minded and accepting of others' beliefs; however, conflict may still arise when dealing with the finer details and aspects of religious figures such as Jesus, as the Law of One views most established religions as being in error in some respect. A deity or a god, is a postulated preternatural being, usually, but not always, of significant power, worshipped, thought holy, divine, or sacred, held in high regard, or respected by human beings. ... This 11th-century portrait is one of many images of Jesus in which a halo with a cross is used. ...


"The Ra Material"

Another more recent source of channelling which directly deals with "The Law of One", (and in fact has been published as a series of books taking this name[1]), was originally known as "The Ra Material". According to Websters Dictionary: the practice of professedly entering a meditative or trancelike state in order to convey messages from a spiritual guide. ...


This consisted of a series of supposed psychic channellings which occurred in 1981 through the work of Carla Rueckert, Jim McCarty, and Don Elkins, Ph.D,[2] who record communications with an entity which identifies itself as "Ra"; a sort of "group consciousness" from a higher dimension, who claims to have been in contact with humanity at various points over many thousands of years.


In addition to the series of books, there exists a freely available "Study Guide" which attempts to present the material in a more readable and organized format.[3]


David Wilcock

David Wilcock is a new channeler who has been teaching the same philosophies concerning the Law of One as Cayce, and in fact there are those who believe that Wilcock could actually be the reincarnation of Cayce.


Wilcock maintains a website, Ascension2000.com[4], which explores these themes.
