If you are suggesting that an small farming Orthodox religious community deliberately put Edgar Cayce up to copying old esoteric texts before him - information that they would COMPLETELY disagree with.. Even the idea that Edgar Cayce slipped off to the cities somewhere and studied ancient esoteric information so he could copy it, is just LAUGHABLE! Oh, the skeptics arrived at his door left and right. One doctor even ripped the finger nail right off of him while he was in trance, only to find Cayce didn't budge at all. They investigated his personal library, expecting to find all sorts of intellectual books on Ancient Egypt and old Esoteric knowledge - NONE could be found. Just a bunch of "Old dumb books", as far as the professors and doctors could see. They were never able to prove he was a fraud. Simply because he wasn't. Edgar Cayce had an eighth grade education and was practically considered illiterate. His community and his family did not put him up to a lifetime of "Fake channeling" trance states. He worked 8-9 hours in service to others for free, for decades. If ones reads enough Edgar Cayce, one realizes quickly there is no way he could have faked the things he did. In fact, 1000's of clients of Dolores Cannon, people who had NO previous fascination with any of these topics - many simple business people with no spiritual leanings - would up in past lives only to confirm many of the unique and ONE OF A KIND details that left Edgar Cayce's mouth. There isn't some huge conspiracy out there for thousands of people to secretly study Edgar Cayce or Rudolf Steiner for that matter, then pretend to know the information while in a "Fake" trance state. You ought to read Dolores Cannon's "Jesus and the Essenes", detailing a young woman named Katie, who spent over a YEAR with Dolores cannon going into sessions detailing that of an old Essene life she had, one who walked with Jesus and John the Baptist. The lifetime was known as Suddi. The information that came through was one of a kind, and later much of it was confirmed by recent excavations and insights that have only been discovered in recent years. Katie was so freaked out by it all, and all the information that was flowing through her, that she moved away to get away from Dolores Cannon, accepting a business promotion 100's of miles away. She couldn't handle it. Furthermore, there is plenty of information that came from Cayce that was NOT repeated anywhere in the previous 200 years of esoteric knowledge available. Details no one could possibly know, and details that were later confirmed archaeologically. 1000's of people benefited from Edgar Cayce's medical readings. Doctors were constantly in awe of him, and they were never able to prove he was a fraud. This was a simple man with simple thinking. He was no genius in his "conscious" life. In many sessions, he could scan some one from 100's of miles away (without there even having to be present in person) and knew precisely what medical conditions they were facing. His medical advice always proved to work. He could see there entire systems through the astral/spiritual realms. This ability was granted to Edgar Cayce from the higher angelic realms as a one off "gift". He wasn't like this every single lifetime. He was selected for a mission, so that this would one day serve as a testament to the power of spirit, and so that those that have ears to hear and eyes to see, could see and hear.
