Introduction

Death is not the "big sleep" - it is the "great awakening".

However tormented the dream becomes we love it, cling to it and fear to waken - until we catch a glimpse of the world beyond. Then we become enthusiastic, impatient to cross over and step out on a new, even more exciting stage of the journey.......
