"From Enoch to the Dead Sea Scrolls: The teaching of the Essenes" by Edmond Bordeaux Szekely
The present work is concerned with the meaning of the Essene traditions
in relation to their values for mankind today and the actual practices
which result in an expansion of consciousness. These values may be
considered from four standpoints. 1.) The Essene traditions represent a
synthesis of the great contributions to humanity of the different
cultures of antiquity. 2.) They represent for us a path leading away
from the one-sided utilitarian technology of contemporary civilization, a
valid and practical teaching utilizing all the sources of energy,
harmony and knowledge everywhere surrounding us. 3.) They give us
permanent standards in an age where truth seems to dissolve in a
continual shifting of concepts. 4.) This resulting neurosis and
insecurity is given a complete balance and harmony through the Essene
teachings.
