Is there anything beyond death? And is it worth having?
This book begins with the latest science on the Near-death Experience, then explores the passage through physical death to the states of conscious being beyond. These states often blissful, are outlined by our great religious traditions, and detailed in Tibetan Buddhism and the perennial philosophy, particularly in the Alice Bailey books.
Traditional sources are compared with findings of science and medicine, and psychology from Jung and Piaget to Wilber. Later chapters examine clinical studies by well-known psychiatrists and psychologists: these were undertaken after they accidentally took subjects into 'the place the Tibetans call the Bardo' the state after death/between lives.
In a letter to Australian journalist Pamela Bone, author Susan Shore wrote:
"You say in your book Bad Hair Days that the brain is the only thinking mechanism, therefore consciousness cannot survive death. In my book I examine a mass of evidence...to the contrary...that is ignored. This is due to its rejection by a materialistic science that can be as inflexible as the religion it often deplores."
Pamela Bone, whose book Bad Hair Days was about the passage to her own death, found the book 'wonderful, deeply thoughtful...beautifully written. It has made me think again."
