Synopsis

Excerpt from The Life Beyond Death
One of the questions most frequently asked the teachers of the Wisdom of the East is this: What do you teach regarding 'the other side' of the river of death? To the trained and developed occultist, this ques tion never seems to lose its strangeness. To such, it would seem as the question: What 'do you teach regarding the 'other side' of the street? Would seem to the ordinary man on the street. The latter would naturally feel surprised that there should be any question of teaching on the subject, for the inquirer would have but to use his own eyes to obtain the answer to his query.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Followers of the early "New Age" movement known as New Thought, which was wildly popular at the turn of the 20th century, were intensely interested in gleaning the fruit of all of humanity's spiritual wisdom.

Here, in this curious volume originally published in 1909, one of the most influential New Thought writers and editors introduces Western readers to Eastern thought on what, exactly, is on "the other side of the river of death." From the geography of the astral plane to the "soul-slumber" that occurs after death, from communication with spirits to what lies "beyond reincarnation," this is a fascinating look at the pop spirituality of a century ago.

About the Author

American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today, including "Yogi Ramacharaka" and "Theron Q. Dumont."
