Life After Life: The Investigation of a Phenomenon--Survival of Bodily Death
by Raymond A. Moody Jr.Philosopher, ethicist and psychiatrist: Dr. Moody explores the question: Is there life after bodily death? A convincing study. From the book: --WHAT IS IT LIKE TO DIE? "All pain vanished." "I went through this dark, black vacuum at super speed." "There was a feeling of utter peace and quiet, no fear at all." "I was in a very dark, very deep valley. Later I thought, 'Well, now I know what the Bible means by the valley of the shadow of death because I've been there.'" "After I came back, I cried off and on for about a week because I had to live in this world after seeing that one." "It opened up a whole new world for me . . . I kept thinking, 'There's so much that I've got to find out.'" "I heard a voice telling me what I had to do go back-and I felt no fear."-- Moody presents medical cases along with a look at religious teachings and their afterlife possibilities. This file should make a fine embossed braille copy.
