What happens after we or our loved ones die, even if under tragic circumstances? What happens to centuries of wisdom when threats to freedom arise? How do we keep ourselves hopeful in the midst of grueling day-to-day struggles? How can we connect with, and remember, the larger tapestry of our existence?
Seven Stories to Light the Way follows in the spirit of the first two books in the "Greater Reality" series by Cynthia Spring and Frances Vaughan: Seven Questions About Life After Life and Seven Questions About the Greater Reality. But this book illuminates through stories.
Imagine a starry night sky when it shows the expanse of our galaxy. Imagine that each star offers a threshold, or a portal, into the Greater Realty. How many portals are there? Too many to count. This book offers seven of them. If you peek at the greater reality through each of these portals, you can put together an expansive view of your own making. Each story is like a puzzle piece. Pick one up and it's interesting. Put them together, and a whole picture starts to emerge.
Seven Stories expands your consciousness through new ways to understand how our human incarnation fits into a larger frame of existence that we all share-including new ways to experience it. Each of the seven stories in this book captures a moment or event set in the context of a greater reality.
Commentary and dialogue between Frances and Cynthia follow the telling of each story, illuminating their broader meaning.
"Truth and Story always walk together, and people love them both."
Seven Stories to Light the Way. Time to come home.
