The Essene volumes by Dr. E. Bordeaux Székely, a long-time bestseller, are for many people not just reading material but a daily practice. The author of this volume has been deeply touched by the energies of these texts. Through years of seminar work, she has developed meditations from them, which are now made accessible to a wide readership through this book.

The Essenes were a faith community from biblical times. Whether Jesus emerged from this community or whether they followed him is unknown. In the Vatican Library, Székely rediscovered countless fragments and complete texts of the Essene writings, clearly linking them to the same source as the Dead Sea Scrolls and translating them into a vibrant poetic language. This provides many today with a new, non-dogmatic approach to early Christian teachings. According to these writings, Jesus spoke not only of God and angels but also of Mother Earth, and he taught the One Law, which is not imposed from the outside but should resonate within us through daily spiritual practice.

The Essene writings contain prayers, invocations, or meditations for each of the seven days of the week, each for the morning, noon, and evening.
