Book Reviews of Reaching to Heaven
Book Review: Death is not the end!
Summary: 5 Stars
The muslims teach that islam is the only way!and if you don't follow it,well,you will be condemned to eternity in hell.The christians teach that christ is the only way.And the Hindues have their own theory concerning karma and rincarnation.
I found myself a very confuse young man until I read this book.Because based on James' gift we can see that it does not matter what religion you are.It is simply how you live.God resides within us.Religion is just a way to keep order.Yes,there is a god.But if God made us all,everyone of us equal,then how is it each religion teaches this idea of "selfishness".
What I am trying to say is simply this(for example)...If the muslims believe that they are the only ones going to heaven,they why did god make the other people(christians,hindues etc).Surely god didn't not deliberately make people just to go to hell,did he?
Well,step out of the darkness.Understand what lies beyond.This book answers all your questions about the afterlife.You would surely understand what god really is,and heaven and hell.You would also see that religion does not matter.The name of this book implies it all.
And this book is divided into sections:
1)The journey:this deals with awakening your mind,getting to know you,Death-the way home,The spiritual realms(very interesting),The evolving spirit,and returning to earth.
2)Spirit speaks:In this section the author gives examples of his encounter with spirits and lots more for example:expectations,guilt,fear,forgiveness and BEST of all,LOVE...(you will actually understand the concept of love).
3)The awakening:This helps in remembering the real "you",Guiding our children,and the Keys to higher life(very important)...
After reading this book,I guarantee it that your fear of death will be eliminated and your journey of life will truly begin...
Don't get me wrong.I am a christian.But only because of simplicity.I don't contradict anybody's religion.And I understand fully that everyone has an equal chance to go to "heaven",and it doesn't matter what religion we are or race or colour.It all depends on how much we learn to love and understand each other.And with love we can make this world a better place.This is simply what God(the eternal force,Jesus,Allah,Buddah)wants!...
I fully recommend this book along with "Talking to heaven"...Enjoy the read...Nigel.
Summary of Reaching to Heaven
"Reaching to Heaven" continues the exploration of the "other world" that began with the bestselling "Talking to Heaven". Complete with van Praagh's famous psychic sessions, this audiobook emphasizes the practical side of his work and engages listeners interactively, with specific exercises to help them realize their psychic potential.Professional medium James Van Praagh (Talking to Heaven) offers a guidebook for the living, which charts the course of the soul as it journeys through life, death, and rebirth. Beyond his psychic gifts, Van Praagh has a gift for simplifying complex spiritual ideas and writing about them in a conversational tone. Most appealing for Van Praagh fans are his detailed theories on death and the afterlife. For example, when people die sudden deaths, Van Praagh reports, spirits of the dead often linger over their bodies, unable to comprehend what has happened (but still able to see and hear everything that is being done and said around the corpse). This is why spirits of the already-deceased are so useful in helping the dead transition to the other side.
Speaking of the afterlife, or heaven, Van Praagh writes:
In the higher realms everyone is on the same level of spiritual understanding, like a symphony of beings in tune with one another. For some this may mean a reunion with members of their earth family. For others it could be a meeting with former friends and lovers from previous incarnations.Finally, Van Praagh returns to his fascinating stories of channeling the deceased to illustrate how the living can stay on task with their raison d'être. If we want to help our souls along on their eternal journeys toward enlightenment, then we must remove the emotional obstacles that are blocking their paths, says Van Praagh, who devotes entire chapters to guilt, fear, forgiveness, and love. --Gail Hudson
