How do we write a book?

Do you write a book or does it write itself? I find that when the time is right, a book will write itself. I have written three books on energy and auras and I wrote from my heart and the whole thing was finished in a month. The book was not up to any scientific or academic purist standard but then it was telling a story of an individual and his discovery of a particular phenomenon. In a way,...

Near Death Experiences – what do they mean?

  NDE's near death experiences are when during an operation or after an accident you temporarily leave your body and have insights and intimations of what life is like on the other side. It has nothing to do with mediumship, clairvoyance, remote viewing, rather what happens when you cast off your body which I call an overcoat, and in a way have a sneak preview.

Is it easy or difficult to make a friend? We can certainly make acquaintances. We can certainly talk across the garden fence.
