What Near Death Experiences and Mysticism Teach Us About the Meaning of Life and Living
A Harvard theologian offers lessons for living from true stories of near death experiences and mystical encounters in this accessible, inspirational and profoundly life-changing work.
Berman is well suited to doing the first major spiritual examination of the NDE experience. What is it like to die? How are NDEs similar to mystical experiences? What aspect of the human being survives after death? What do ancient religions and modern science have to tell us about NDEs? How do NDEs transform people? What lessons can we draw and apply to our lives from looking into the NDEs of others? What are the theological implications of NDEs?
All these questions, and more, are answered in this profoundly moving and inspiring book. Berman examines the stories of mystics and NDE survivors. He provides cross cultural and historical perspective on NDEs. Finally, like no other book on the subject, THE JOURNEY HOME provides insight, reflection and inspiration on the meaning of NDEs for anyone interested in leading a more satisfying life.
