A fascinating biography written by the country's foremost authorities
on metaphysics.
The Edgar Cayce story is one of the most compelling in inspirational
literature. For more than forty years, the Sleeping Prophet closed his
eyes, entered into an altered state of consciousness, and spoke to the
very heart and spirit of humankind on subjects such as health, healing,
dreams, prophecy, meditation, and reincarnation. His more than 14,000
readings are preserved at the Association for Research and
Enlightenment, Inc., in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
A native of Kentucky with a ninth-grade education, Edgar Cayce
accurately predicted two world wars, including the years they began and
ended, racial strife in America, the death of John F. Kennedy, and
hundreds of other recorded events. He could apparently travel in time
and space to treat the ill, and dispensed information that led to
innumerable cures where traditional medicine was helpless. The first to
introduce many Americans to the concept of reincarnation, Cayce drew on
a subconscious Universal Mind for startling information about past and
future. In The Sleeping Prophet, Jess Stearn presents the
extraordinary story of his life, his healing, his prophecies, and his
powerful legacy.
