Ian Posted January 22, 2006 Please read this before you die: http://www.barrylong.org/statements/what-it-is-to-die.shtml Thank you. I just read an autobiographical book called "the wheel of life", by elizabeth kubler-ross, the lady who wrote "on death and dying" She had quite a freaky ride, one way or another, and the book touched me a lot. But the reason I mention it is that she collected a lot of data from people who had "died and come back". And while there's no "proof" that their experiences aren't merely "the deranged fanstasy of their disorganised minds undergoing death", as the man said, there is remarkable consistency beteween the people's experiences, and great similarity also to what Barry Long has written. And it's valauble to get descriptions which are not coloured by a previously ingrained belief system, I think. Check out some of her stuff. She is a little "unsophisticated" in her expressions, but I think that's the main reason she has been able to spread so much kindness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yoda Posted January 22, 2006 Ian, Is that your review on amazon? Is that your real last name--you are a natural born taoist in that case. The book looks too emotionally intense for me. -Yoda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
