A Groundbreaking Interpretation of Prayer, Quantum Science, and Prophecy.

Only one document was discovered completely intact among the 25,000 fragments of papyrus, parchment, and hammered copper known as the Dead Sea Scrolls: the Great Isaiah Scroll. Nearly one thousand years older than existing copies of the Old Testament's Book of Isaiah, the twenty-two-foot-long parchment was still rolled and sealed in its original earthen vase when it was discovered in 1946. The completeness of the Isaiah Scroll offers unprecedented insight into the power of an ancient mystery — a lost mode of prayer — that modern science is just beginning to understand. Displayed today in Jerusalem's Shrine of the Book Museum, the Great Isaiah Scroll is believed to be so precious by modern scholars that it's withdrawn into a vault beneath the building's floor in the event of a natural or man-made disaster.

In The Isaiah Effect, the dazzling new work from the author of Awakening to Zero Point and Walking Between the Worlds, scientist and visionary Gregg Braden offers a radical departure from traditional interpretations of Isaiah's text. Weaving state-of-the-art research with his extensive knowledge of the ancient Essenes (the creators of the scroll texts), Braden invites us on a journey where science and miracles are merged into a new wisdom — and lead to a startling conclusion. He suggests that Isaiah, the first Old Testament prophet, left precise instructions to the people of the future describing an unconventional mode of prayer.

Living the Days of Prophecy

History Points to Now

For some reason the man caught my eye as I strolled down the hallway past the rest rooms and telephones. It could have been his artwork displayed on the walls. Perhaps it was his jewelry, modestly peeking from the handcrafted box lined with felt. More likely than not, however, it was the three children that surrounded him. Having no children of my own, over the years I’ve gotten better at estimating the ages of those that belong to other people. The oldest with the man was nearly eight years old. Working toward the youngest, there was perhaps two years’ difference between one and the next. What beautiful children, I thought to myself as I passed their display in the lobby of the restaurant.

I had just finished a long-overdue meal with friends near a small seaside town north of San Francisco. Preparing to offer a workshop that would continue over the next three days, I knew that I had been a little distant at dinner. From my vantage point at one end of the table, the conversations seemed to be happening all around me. I had felt like an observer as the rest of the group quickly paired off in catch-up conversation regarding careers, romance, and future plans. I remember wondering if my choice of seating was intentional, my way of avoiding direct participation while still enjoying the presence of old friendships in intimate conversation. More than once I had found myself looking out of the tall plate-glass windows that stood between me and the tide rising under the pier. My mind was focused on the presentation that I would make the following evening. What words would I share in the opening? How would I invite an audience of mixed backgrounds and varied beliefs to follow me into an ancient message of life-affirming hope regarding our time in history?

“Hey, how is it going?” the man with the children and jewelry said as I walked toward him. The unexpected greeting of a stranger jolted me into the present. I smiled and nodded.

“Great,” I replied, without even thinking. “It looks like you have some good helpers,” I said, gesturing toward his three children. The man laughed, and as I stopp…
