SPIRITUAL NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE Synopsis: Author Marion Rome almost died, and returned to tell the tale. And the story she brings us? There is so much less to fear in life - or death - than we think. In this frank and compassionate account, we hear how death doesn't really exist, it doesn't take religion to get to 'heaven', and love is our ultimate purpose. We learn what it feels like to experience life as a soul freed of its bodily constraints, once more aware of our true place in the universe. Her near-death experience has led Marion to transform her working life, and to put love first. She has also learned to forgive - herself, for times when she has lashed out or let people down, and those, even her own mother, who have hurt her badly in this physical realm. Marion shares her NDE in detail, including her encounter with the super-loving souls that exist beyond our everyday senses, and invites you to join her in seeing beyond fear, guilt and blame to recognise the potential we all have to connect with universal love throughout our earthly lives.

In this unique and exhilarating autobiography, Allan Jones – Canada’s first blind diplomat – vividly describes how an untreatable eye disease slowly decimated his visual world, most challengingly during his postings in Tokyo and New Delhi, and how he discovered and took to heart the revelatory Indian philosophy that changed his life. Advaita Vedanta, the most iconoclastic and liberating of the classical Indian philosophies, profoundly altered the author’s experience of self and world. He found that the true self, as distinct from the individual ego, far exceeds the boundaries of individuality. It lies beneath sightedness or blindness and is absolutely unaffected by the latter. This welcome shift of perspective was reinforced by startling discoveries in contemporary physics, evolutionary biology, and developmental psychology that are fully consistent with Advaitic metaphysics. As for the practical applications of metaphysics, this book demonstrates step by step how Advaitic insight and practice significantly reduce physical and psychological tension. The most telling examples have to do with adjustments compelled by extreme circumstances. Thus Jones describes how he drew upon Advaitic mindfulness techniques to maintain his white cane mobility skills in the teeth of permanent spinal, nerve, and muscle pain. The arc of Beyond Vision moves from the claustrophobically personal to the openness of the transpersonal. It begins in a dysfunctional family background, breaking out into a full life encompassing an adventurous foreign service career, spiritual exploration, and an unconventional kind of marital love.
