Xenophon - Edgar Cayce's Reincarnational History of Ancient Greece

"Xenophon - Edgar Cayce's Reincarnational History of Ancient Greece: Edgar Cayce was a famous twentieth-century Christian mystic who regularly entered an altered state of consciousness from which he answered questions and gave information on a broad range of topics. His psychic dissertations included historic data on famous -- and completely unknown -- people and events. Within this broad array of material was a generous amount of detail about Ancient Greece as documented in this series of videos.

From the perspective of the Cayce readings, history provides a context for the experience of individual lives as soul development. Thus, the meaning of history is that it is an expression of individual lives -- a gestalt or pattern in the fabric of space and time that provides the set and setting for individual expression. The primary focus of the readings in which past life information in an historical setting was provided, was for the soul development of the individual or immediate soul group.

Introduction -- Some background information on Edgar Cayce, his method, and an overview of the project.

Trojan Wars -- Cayce used the expression ""Trojan Wars"" insisting that there were many and had been going on for some time. His readings address some of the basic unanswered questions about the story: Did Helen of Troy really exist? If so, was she a willing participant in an elopement with her lover Paris, or was it a brutal abduction as portrayed in many paintings by artists throughout the centuries? Was there really a Trojan horse that allowed the Greeks to slip past the daunting fortifications of the city? Did the reknowned Greek warrior Achilles really defeat the Trojan hero Hector in battle and drag his corpse behind his chariot? Did seemingly invulnerable Achilles actually die from a wound to his heel? These are the kinds of questions that bring the story to life but cannot be answered by an archaeologist's trowel.

The Fall of Troy -- Edgar Cayce's past life as Xenon the Trojan gatekeeper provides a window into the final act of this epic story. Many characters not included in Homer's account are fleshed out revealing an intriguing plot of secrecy and espionage. The aftermath of the war is also described.

Socrates -- Although Cayce did not give a life reading on anyone identified as Socrates, he did provide fascinating details about the Greek thinker who he described as the ""soldier philosopher."" Cayce's wife Gertrude was said to have been a daughter of Socrates named Normaline. Other members of Socrates' household are discussed. The question of what Socrates taught that got him the death sentence is also addressed.

Xenophon -- Edgar Cayce stated that Gertrude Cayce's uncle and aunt had past lives as Xenophon and his wife. Xenophon was a famous soldier, historian, and philosopher who studied with Socrates prior to his military exploits. Several other individuals with past lives close to Xenophon also received readings from Cayce.

Alexander the Great -- Cayce gave a reading for a child who was said to have been Alexander in a past life. The character and motivation of this great conqueror are explored within the context of reincarnation. Five individuals associated with Alexander (three military associates and two people from conquered lands) are also discussed.
