““An interesting aspect of Cayce’s teachings on faith is that he perceived virtue as a fruit of faith. (262-18) As one lives in faith, one’s heart and mind become increasingly virtuous. He added that a virtuous heart and mind are a fertile field for a spiritual understanding about self and life. This understanding would naturally arise with one whose faith gives life to virtue, which in turn gives life to a greater understanding.””
