Review
"Dr. Evans-Wentz, who literally sat at the feet of a Tibetan lama for
years in order to acquire his wisdom...not only displays a deeply
sympathetic interest in those esoteric doctrines so characteristic of
the genius of the East, but likewise possesses the rare faculty of
making them more or less intelligible to the layman."--Anthropology (on
the previous edition) |

Life After Life: The
Investigation of a Phenomenon--Survival of Bodily Death
by Raymond MoodyReview
"It is research like Dr. Moody presents in his book that
will enlighten many and will confirm what we have been taught
for two thousand years -- that there is life after death." --
Elisabeth Kubler Ross, M.D. --This text refers to an out of
print or unavailable edition of this title.
Book Description
In Life After Life Raymond Moody
investigates more than one hundred case studies of people who
experienced "clinical death" and were subsequently revived.
First published in 1975, this classic exploration of life after
death started a revolution in popular attitudes about the
afterlife and established Dr. Moody as the world's leading
authority in the field of near-death experiences. Life after
Life forever changed the way we understand both death -- and life -- selling millions of copies to a world hungry for
a greater understanding of this mysterious phenomenon.
The extraordinary stories presented here
provide evidence that there is life after physical death, as
Moody recounts the testimonies of those who have been to the
"other side" and back -- all bearing striking similarities of an
overwelming positive nature. These moving and inspiring accounts
give us a glimpse of the peace and unconditional love that await
us all. |

The Sacred Art of Dying: How
the World Religions Understand Death (Paperback)
by Kenneth KramerKramer
taught for a short time at San Jose State University, Death Dying &
Religion. Of course, being the source of a book, it was intreguing to
hear his arguments and views about each religion. Kramer describes in
detail the geographical location of each religion and how similar each
religion is, and how it ties in the same very locations that each
religion has, with their own interpretations. ...This book is definitely
a text book, but if you have any questions on why so many countries hate
America based on their religions, perhaps we can better understand them
but comparing them to your own views on religion. Even within the
Christian religion, the differences are there. History runs high even
amongsts Buddhists and it's sister religions. I do recommend this as a
book to read. |

What Dreams May Come [HD DVD] (1998)
Starring: Robin Williams, Cuba Gooding Jr.
Robin Williams and Annabella Sciorra star in this
visually stunning metaphysical tale of life after death. Neurologist
Chris and artist Annie had the perfect life until they lost their
children in an auto accident; they're just starting to recover when
Chris meets an untimely death himself. He's met by a messenger named
Albert (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and taken to his own personal afterlife--a
freshly drawn world reminiscent of Annie's own artwork, still
dripping and wet with paint. Meanwhile a depressed Annie takes her
own life, compelling Chris to traverse heaven and hell to save Annie
from an eternity of despair.The
multitextured visuals seem to have been created from a lost fairy
tale. Heaven recalls the landscape paintings of Thomas Cole and
Renaissance architecture complete with floating cherubs, while hell
is a massive shipwreck, an upside-down cathedral overgrown with
thorns and a sea of groaning faces popping out of the ground (one of
those faces is German director Werner Herzog). Williams is the
perfect actor to play against the imaginative computer-generated
imagery--he himself is a human special effect. But the lack of
chemistry between Williams and Sciorra is painfully apparent, and
the flashback plot structure flattens the story's impact despite its
deeply felt examinations of the heart and the spirit. Still, there's
no denying Eugenio Zanetti's triumphant production design and the
Oscar-winning special effects, which create a fully formed universe
that is at once beautiful, eerie, and a unique example of movie
magic. --Shannon Gee

After
Life : What the Bible Really Says ~Douglas Connelly / 1995
From near-death experiences to the
controversy over assisted suicide, Douglas Connelly offers Bible-based
guidance to help Christians sort out faith and fantasy, truth and rationalization.
Here's what the Bible really says about death, hell and heaven.
One popular book after another claims
to have the answers. Personal accounts of near-death experiences, descriptions
of what happens to our physical bodies, differing theories about heaven
and hell - what does the Bible have to say about all this? Douglas Connelly
has looked at what Scripture has to say and can help you understand what
it means for you. This book evaluates near-death experiences while offering
a biblical picture of heaven and hell.
"A near-death experience (NDE)
refers to a broad range of personal experiences associated with impending death,
encompassing multiple possible sensations ranging from detachment from the body,
feelings of levitation, extreme fear, security, or warmth, the experience of
absolute dissolution, and the presence of a light, which some people interpret
as a deity or spiritual presence. Many cultures and individuals revere NDEs as a
paranormal and spiritual glimpse into the afterlife."
