THE AUTHOR'S NOTE The age old questions still continue to bother the human consciousness, is there or is there not LIFE BEYOND DEATH? Can we, while still in the physical body, visit that place, where we are told no travellers return? I was convinced that we could not until a few years ago when I was subjected to a remarkable introduction to the place I felt was out of bounds. When this started I was 42 years old and even writing about it now, reliving the experiences, makes me wonder if, by recording them, my reader may feel some concern as to what may be reviewed within the pages. Let me allay any fears now, this book is written solely to give a greater understanding of LIFE and DEATH. We have life, therefore at some stage we must die. The comfort I have received from this other land of light over the years has prompted me to write and share all the knowledge I have gained. The onset of the book deals with my early life and the first 15 years of marriage, please stay with it as these years are important to the experiences that follow later in the book. The out of body visits to the spirit world only started in 1982, so the early years were starved of any knowledge.
