You're Bigger Than Death ...and Life Too

About the Book

This book is about you. Who you really are, in all of your majesty and grandeur. It introduces you to yourself in a way that you haven’t known you before. It acknowledges your position as co-creator of the world you experience, eternal in your nature, playing your role in determining what the Ultimate Creator is, whether you believe in one or not. If a lot of it makes sense to you, and it strikes a responsive chord, then you’re going to feel better about yourself, your life, and the world, regardless of what you achieve or don’t achieve. That’s the reason it was written. You are going to understand that right now, you are involved in millions of worlds, many of them far more exciting and fun-filled than the one you know at this moment. But because you’re not aware of them in your everyday waking consciousness, you group all of them into a term you call “death.” By that you mean everything that might be beyond this world we know, and all the experiences that anyone who isn’t “living” might be having. Until now, it’s likely you haven’t thought much about them. But once you’ve read this book, you may want to start, because it will help you become aware of the you who exists beyond this little world. Coming to a greater appreciation of the many worlds in which you are currently active, you’ll also come to a greater appreciation of this world. You’ll begin to comprehend all the advances you can make in it, and all the joy and love you can create, here and in other places at the same time, with very little effort. And that holds true whether you are rich or poor, whether or not you’ve achieved a lot, and regardless of what the rest of the world thinks about you. Now that’s quite a lot to promise, but it really isn’t all that difficult to deliver. The reason is, we’re living in a strange and unusual time. We are the exception. Most cultures throughout time have had a much clearer notion of what existed beyond this world, and they experienced a much closer connection to that reality. We know that we live for a period of 70 to 100 years or so on this planet, but for the most part, we have very little idea of what comes before or after our time here. The infants who come to join us aren’t capable of telling us much, and many of us are suspicious of any information that is claimed to come from those of us who have died. The result? The majority of us have vague, fuzzy notions about what might exist beyond this life. Some of us like to believe there is a blissful heaven, and we’re afraid there may be a hell, a place of horrible punishment for misdeeds committed here on earth. Some of us agree with those scientists who claim that consciousness as we know it arose by accident, from the mixing together of certain particles, and that once we experience physical death, we no longer exist. Many hold to some notion between those two. Regardless of where we might be on that spectrum, many of us are largely ignorant about what might exist beyond these 70 to 100 years. We haven’t studied it in depth or thought that much about it, as we go about the business of making a living and trying to live as productive and happy a life as we can. Not knowing causes many of us a lot of anxiety. We’re afraid to die. We don’t know how we’ll be spending the next 50 billion years, but we suspect it will be quite different from this life. If there were an easily understandable idea of what existence was really like after we die and before we are born, most of us would want to know about it. We’d feel reassured. This book is written to those of you who fit that description — those of you who, at some level, are seeking greater understanding of the significance of our lives and our world, and how it fits into a “bigger picture.” In our strange and unusual time, we experience isolation to a far greater degree than many civilizations have, with the attendant anxieties about what happens to us when we’re not here. The positive news is, we have wonderfu
