Edgar Cayce On The Dead Sea Scrolls

Of all of his clairvoyant excursions into the past, some of the most remarkable information that came through Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), explored the activities of a little known Jewish sect called the Essenes. More than eleven years before the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in 1947, Cayce’s readings provided detailed descriptions of the Essenes, their activities, their community, the records they kept, and the fact that both men and women were members of the society. In one reading, Cayce was asked to explain the term Essene, “(Q) What is the correct meaning of the term "Essene"? The answer was given simply as, “(A) Expectancy.” The readings go on to suggest that it was this group who took upon itself the entrance of the Messiah into the earth!

Here are Edgar Cayce's revelations surrounding the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the mysterious religious sect known as the Essenes, whose story will forever alter people's perceptions of true spiritual enlightenment.

One of the most fascinating topics found in the readings of famed psychic Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) revealed the existence of a sacred sect called the Essenes. His information about the Essenes would later be confirmed by the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls two years after his death. Cayce's readings contained more than a description of who the Essenes were and their purpose in bringing the Christ into the earth, he gave us details about their lives and past lives! Many of these Essenes reincarnated during Cayce's time and received readings that revealed their souls—including their purposes then and now. What can we learn from these readings and the reincarnation of the Essenes? There is so much about our origin, our soul group, and the purpose for which we are here on earth today in this latest book that it is like having a manual for soul growth. Ideals, practices, and guiding principles held by these ancient ones are as valuable to us today as they were then.

One of the most remarkable stories of the twentieth century about one of the most incredible men who ever lived: Edgar Cayce, a Kentucky farm boy whose psychic powers healed thousands, touched countless lives, and inspired the dawn of the New Age. For more than forty years, Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), the 'sleeping prophet,' regularly exhibited an astonishing psychic ability. From an altered state, he was able to read minds and souls, diagnose thousands of illnesses, successfully prescribe remedies, see into the past and the future, and tap into a source of universal knowledge where such information resides--a source Cayce said is available to us all. For anyone who has heard of Edgar Cayce-and his name is familiar to millions--here is a concise, reliable, immensely readable introduction to his life, work, and message. In Edgar Cayce's ESP, his story is told by writer Kevin Todeschi, an authority on Cayce's work and the director of the popular educational organization Cayce founded, the Association for Research and Enlightenment. Drawing upon more than 14,000 case histories and readings, Todeschi presents a wealth of proof of Cayce's psychic abilities and the effects they had on the lives of his contemporaries. Todeschi focuses especially on the character of the modest, generous Cayce himself, a man who started out in life as a sensitive, Bible-reading Kentucky farm boy and who grew up to become an unlikely prophet of the New Age and the most famous psychic in American history.

Edgar Cayce, widely acclaimed clairvoyant and forerunner of the holistic health movement, is revealed here as a pivotal figure in the transition from the esoteric and metaphysical movements of the late nineteenth century to the New Age movement.This book describes and evaluates his psychic "readings," more than 14,000 trance discourses that address medical, theological, historical, and psychological concerns raised by thousands of inquirers. The author evaluates evidence for and against Cayce's reliability in the subject areas emphasized by the readings. Cayce's medical and psychological advice is shown to be well ahead of his time in many respects, and his spiritual teachings are appraised as a reconciliation of Protestant mysticism with New Thought and Theosophy. Although the medical readings provide intriguing evidence for Cayce's ESP, his clairvoyant time travel illustrates the fallibility of information derived through hypnotic trance. The author contends that the contents of the readings reflect the knowledge and interests of their recipients as much as Cayce's personal opinions and beliefs. This is the first book to focus solely on appraising the entire body of the Cayce readings from a scholarly perspective.
