Jesus and the Essenes

1992

In Jesus and the Essenes, Dolores Cannon transmits the memories of an Essene initiate named Suddi, accessed through deep regressive hypnosis.

The book describes with striking coherence the daily life, teachings, and initiations of the Essene communities during the time of Jeshua.

It reveals their deep connection with the Egyptian Mystery Schools, showing how the Essenes preserved and transmitted sacred sciences from the temples of Isis and Heliopolis — healing, vibration, and light-work.
The text details the preparation of Jeshua from childhood within these schools: his training in silence, energetic mastery, breath, and prophecy.

Cannon presents the Essenes as guardians of ancient wisdom, bridging the spiritual science of Egypt with the messianic current that would later manifest through Christ and Mary Magdalene.

Lineage Connection

This book holds a key to the living bridge between the Egyptian and Christic traditions.
It portrays the Essenes as vessels of the Hermetic and Isis lineages, preserving the original mystery of incarnation — the same current later carried by Mary Magdalene.
Within the Chi-Rho lineage, this marks the moment of integration: when ancient alchemy became embodied devotion, and the transmission shifted from temple to heart.
