Our Mission
The Mission of the Edgar Cayce Society of New Zealand is based on the same mission of the Association for Research and Enlightenment in the U.S.A which is simply to help people change their lives for the better through the ideas and information in the Edgar Cayce material.

  Through its collection of books, newsletters, services, and membership outreach and through its association with the A.R.E., the Edgar Cayce Society of New Zealand is looking to provide individuals from all walks of life, levels of education, and religious backgrounds with tools for personal empowerment and healing at all levels – body, mind, and spirit.

Our fledgling library contains back issues from 2001 of the A.R.E newsletters on Personal Spirituality, Ancient Mysteries and True Health.

We are currently cataloguing the articles for reference by members. Also available are all the ARE newsletters from 2003 in electronic PDF format. There are also back issues of ARE Journal going back to the late 1970s.

Our book library has over 150 titles of Edgar Cayce material. These will be available on loan to members for a small handling fee.

Edgar Cayce
The story of Edgar Cayce's life is exceptional in its simplicity. His strongest motives were caring about people and wanting to help. Out of this impulse came remarkable abilities and talents that were destined to make him more famous decades after his death than he was in his own lifetime.

At the age of twenty-one this gentle, unassuming man discovered by accident that he could intuitively tap sources of knowledge far beyond his eighth-grade education. A compassionate person whose central purpose was to serve God, he used his unusual gift to assist troubled people for more than forty years. Putting himself into a sleeping trance, he could answer questions with wisdom and precision, questions from those who suffered physically and had almost given up hope, questions from those who longed to understand themselves and find their way in life.

His discourses and answers given from this altered state of consciousness were stenographically logged and came to be called readings. Some 14,145 of them were recorded between 1901 and 1944.Upon his death in 1945 Cayce probably little realised the roles he had played: pioneer of the holistic health field,
re-interpreter of metaphysical laws for the twentieth century Judeo-Christian culture, forerunner of transpersonal psychology and the consciousness movement.

To date there are over 300 publications dealing with his life and readings. Three of his biographies have been best sellers. They are: There is a River by Thomas Sugrue, Many Mansions by Gina Cerminara and The Sleeping Prophet by Jess Stearn. (All three books available in the Auckland City Libraries, Many Mansions in the Waitakere Libraries and There is a River in the ECSNZ library.
