John Bainbridge
It’s been nagging at me since David Wilcock took his own life on Monday: could an Edgar Cayce prior life help us understand what happened to David? Although we don’t have biological details that would aid us in our investigation, we do have information from Edgar Cayce, himself.
According to a Cayce reading, “Bainbridge, the entity, in the material sojourn, was a wastrel, one who considered only himself, having to know the extremes in his own experience, as well as in others.” Bainbridge was a charismatic Englishman who was sent into Canadian military service, from which he escaped. He traveled as an adventurer and wanderer, and “many suffered in his wake” through “many escapades that have to do with those of the nature of the relations with the opposite sex.” Cayce was warned in his readings that he could sabotage his positive spiritual benefit in his Cayce lifetime if he yielded to his more base desires. According to Harmon Bro in A Seer Out of Season, “the legacy of his life in colonial America could detonate within him, damaging both him and others.”
On the surface, Cayce lived an exemplary life. In addition to his thousands of readings, he was a regular visitor to prisons, taught Sunday school, and never missed an opportunity to display compassion and caring. (Wilcock also frequently lectured at a New Age church in Virginia Beach on Sundays and worked for two years with the developmentally disabled.) But despite Cayce’s positive accomplishments, his struggles with his dark side and negative habits were always apparent, to those in his immediate sphere. His Source gave him complete dietetic regimens, which he ignored, as well as suggestions to avoid worrying, which he was largely unable to carry out.
In spite of his good works and the blessings he bestowed on so many via his readings, Cayce seemed to suffer low self-esteem, which kept him in continuing financial difficulties through most of his life until his death in 1945. He was a chain smoker and a workaholic, often plowing ahead for such long periods of time that his physical health was severely compromised. He never had enough confidence in his own psychic abilities to charge anything beyond a small donation for his readings, and all attempts to use the readings for profit, such as digging for treasure or oil, ended in disaster. Cayce agreed with his readings’ perspective that his problems were due to the necessity of balancing the excesses that he had accumulated in his Bainbridge life.
Now we flash forward to the life of David Wilcock. Wilcock definitely has a sense of his destiny. He is a man on a mission. He is clearly a workaholic, often failing to leave his computer long enough to turn on the lights once the room has become dark. He has received numerous instructions and counsels in his readings (to himself), which correlate very well with all the life issues that plagued Cayce. Wilcock speaks candidly about his conflicts in his online book Wanderer Awakening, where he reveals the process of his self-discovery in his formative years. Thousands of pages of his online books are downloadable for free. Although he has already done readings for a few hundred people at the time of this writing, he has been told by his Source that readings are not to be his principal service. Planet Earth is in the process of a dimensional shift, and his most effective role would be as a leader, one of a team of “liberators,” who help guide humankind through the changes taking place. Wilcock is presently laying the groundwork for his own part as a liberator with his soon-to-be-published scientific research, his client readings, his Web presentations, international lecture tours, and now the creation of a complete CG-animated DVD series to illustrate his Convergence work; but he would be the first to acknowledge that he has personal obstacles to be processed, cleared, and removed before he can fully own this potential destiny.

It’s funny how details get stuck in the back of my mind, waiting for a ‘trigger’ to bring them back to the forefront of my thinking. What am I referring to? Suicide.
We can refer to a comment by Harmon Bro about Cayce:
Evidently real damage to the soul’s growth had been done by the suicide [in a previous lifetime, when he was shamed in a position of authority], in the readings’ view, leaving a wound of self-doubt which would correspond to what we encountered at times as Cayce’s hunger for attention and confirmation just below the surface of his personality. And the self-violence of suicide had magnified, the readings indicated, a tendency to a “quick temper,” with its “unexpected” flashing out at even those closest to him.
When we perceive David Wilcock expressing self-doubt or difficult financial straits, we can intuit how he’s still working out the leftover karma from the life where he committed suicide, as well as his Cayce and Bainbridge lifetimes.

So, when people say that David would never take his own life, they’re not looking at the bigger picture.
