Just a quick update about The Pact. It is now in the hands of chosen Reviewers who will read the manuscript and write their reviews. The deadline is set for October 1st. When I have the reviews, the manuscript will be sent to my publisher!! Hopefully, he will love it and agree to release it early next year.
Here is the book's Introduction for you to preview!
________________________________________________________________________
Belief comes from our mind, a human
concept that is guided by our physicality, or brain. The renowned Theoretical
Quantum Physicist Amit Goswami stated so clearly, “Consciousness is the ground
of being--not the brain. The brain is made of consciousness, but consciousness
is not made from the brain.” Whatever your belief in the nature of being, there
can be an appreciation of open-mindedness to the concept of a soul’s
progression after death. Spiritual teacher Ram Dass explores this topic openly
when he writes:
People
ask me, “Do you believe that there is continuity after death?” And I say, “I
don’t believe it. It just is.” That offends my scientific friends no end. But
belief is something you hold on to with your intellect. My faith in the continuity
of life has gone way beyond the intellect. Belief is a problem because it is
rooted in the mind, and in the process of death, the mind crumbles. Faith,
consciousness, and awareness all exist beyond the thinking mind.
During my life, I have been
fortunate to have had the opportunity to explore many of the religious views
found on Earth, and I find they ultimately covet sister and brotherhood through
Love. Whether a religious system proclaims a belief in reincarnation or not, we
must ask ourselves the same questions. The Theosophical teachings founded in
1875, provide these spiritual ponderings:
How can we believe that souls are created at a certain point in time,
and yet live forever? How can a soul survive the body, but not pre-exist it?
How can one soul live for over seventy years within a body, then drift into
insignificance at the death of the host body? Perhaps questions such as these
will never be thoroughly answered to our satisfaction, however, you may find
some answers within this book. My chosen belief system encompasses a broad view
of East and West thinking which has sustained my compassionate and positive
attitude toward all life. My late husband and I had made a Pact that
whoever passed away first would connect with the other to confirm, or not, my
belief in an afterlife and the laws of reincarnation.
The writing of The Pact has
been a collaboration between myself and the channeled words of my husband. For
those who are not familiar with the concept of channeling, it can be accomplished
through techniques such as mediumship, automatic writing and drawing, intuitive
sensory perception, and various other means. I channeled my husband’s words during
meditations that are found in the chapter titled Channeling David’s Story of
Heaven. In Chapters Thirteen and Fourteen, I offer this personal process in
more detail. This book is my gift to those who decide to take a journey with me
to explore the reality of reincarnation.
As you read through The Pact, keep
your spiritual mind open. Search your inner self for answers to the many
questions your mind will no doubt put before you. Tap into your subconscious
mind as you unfold and search your own dreams, visions, and meditations which
may visit you while reading this book. As each story touches your heart, allow
your own lifetime review to surface. At the back of the book is a glossary
called the Lifetime Identification Chart. This chart can be used
to help guide you through many of my soul’s adventures.
I am looking forward to your responses to this metaphysical memoir when it is released!
Peace & Blessings,
Barbara~
