Life After Death & the World Beyond: Investigating Heaven and the Spiritual Dimension - Softcover

Reseña del editor

The fate of our bodies and spirits after death remains part of the great unknown. People once accepted much on faith; now we demand a more critical look at such claims. What is heaven? Do angels exist? How can someone simply sense that a friend or relative has died--or see apparitions of the recently departed? What occurs during a "near-death experience"? Investigate through firsthand accounts of otherworldly experiences and recent scientific research into the paranormal. Ponder various images of paradise throughout history and culture; "warnings of departure" sent through dreams and visions; astral traveling; shamanism; and ghostly encounters. Could a five-year-old boy accurately describe the valve placed in his heart during an operation although he had never actually seen it? Is it possible for a child to know that she had been a boy "last time" and give verifiable facts about that life she lived 100 years before? Could psychological need, forgotten memories, or physical maladies explain these circumstances? This may redefine everything you once thought true.... Sterling 160 pages, 50 b/w illus., 7 1/2 x 9 3/4.
