Seven Steps to Eternity
Author: Stephen Turoff
Publisher: CLAIRVIEW BOOKS
ISBN: 9781902636177
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
'I died in the Battle of the Somme...' These were the astonishing first words spoken to clairvoyant and healer Stephen Turoff by the soul of James Legett, a young soldier who was killed in the First World War. For two years, the world famous psychic surgeon communicated with the soldier's soul, and in the process wrote down his remarkable story; not the tale of Legett's tragically short life on the physical plane, but of his death on a battlefield in France and his soul's subsequent journey into the afterlife. Although he works with many discarnate spirits in his clinic, the dyslexic Turoff was initially reluctant to undertake the task of writing a book. But he was persuaded by the boisterous and genial soul of the dead man. Their literary collaboration involved an unusual method: Legett presented spiritual pictures to Turoff, who with clairvoyant perception interpreted them into words. The result is this enlightening testimony of life beyond the illusion of death, filled with insight, spiritual wisdom and delightful humour. It is written to show that we are all eternal; there is no death... only change.

ISBN: 0735225249
Category : History

Pages : 386
Book Description
From "the world's greatest tour guide," a deeply-researched, captivating journey through the rich history of Christianity and the winding paths of the French and Italian countryside that will feed mind, body, and soul (New York Times). "What a wondrous work! This beautifully written and totally clear-eyed account of his pilgrimage will have you wondering whether we should all embark on such a journey, either of the body, the soul or, as in Egan's case, both." --Cokie Roberts "Egan draws us in, making us feel frozen in the snow-covered Alps, joyful in valleys of trees with low-hanging fruit, skeptical of the relics of embalmed saints and hopeful for the healing of his encrusted toes, so worn and weathered from their walk."--The Washington Post Moved by his mother's death and his Irish Catholic family's complicated history with the church, Timothy Egan decided to follow in the footsteps of centuries of seekers to force a reckoning with his own beliefs. He embarked on a thousand-mile pilgrimage through the theological cradle of Christianity to explore the religion in the world that it created. Egan sets out along the Via Francigena, once the major medieval trail leading the devout to Rome, and travels overland via the alpine peaks and small mountain towns of France, Switzerland and Italy, accompanied by a quirky cast of fellow pilgrims and by some of the towering figures of the faith--Joan of Arc, Henry VIII, Martin Luther. The goal: walking to St. Peter's Square, in hopes of meeting the galvanizing pope who is struggling to hold together the church through the worst crisis in half a millennium. A thrilling journey, a family story, and a revealing history, A Pilgrimage to Eternity looks for our future in its search for God.

Searching for Eternity
Author: Donald R. Morse
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
"What happens when we die? Do we simply cease to exist with our consciousness obliterated for all eternity? Or do we have an enduring soul that can continue to experience awareness and some form of ongoing 'life.' Does God exist? Without a creator, how can the universe exist? What is the purpose of the universe and what is its ultimate fate? Does our behavior in day-to-day life really influence what hapens to us after we die? Why do many people believe in a heaven and a hell? What is the basis of these beliefs? Should we be anxious about our death or just enjoy life in the here-and-now? Can these ultimate mysteries be solved by science? What does science already know about the mysteries of creation? Sooner or later, all of us will face the stark reality of death. Many people go through life with an increasing awareness -- and increasing anxiety -- about their eventual fate. Dr. Don Morse, a scientist who believed in the absolute finality of death, did, too. Then his near-death experience led him on a quest to uncover what science knows about the nature of death. Dr. Morse's subsequent spiritual journey led him through the entire realm of science and religious beliefs until he came to an inescapable conclusion: Some form of an afterlife must exist. Join Dr. Morse as he summarizes the vast research and data leading to this conclusion. Near-death and out-of-body experiences, experiments creating apparitions, research attempting to weight the soul, and the wide range of ancient and modern spiritual concepts are all covered in this masterful, comprehensive scientific quest for truth."--back cover.
