Unlike many other books on the subject of near-death experiences (NDEs), which are about or by persons who have had these life-changing encounters, Lessons from the Light is intended mainly for those who have never had an NDE themselves but who wish to learn from those who have. Obviously, the great majority of persons will never have an NDE as such, but everyone can benefit from the lessons that have been thrust upon those individuals. This book is an effort to place exactly this kind of information at the disposal of its readers by presenting in clear language the practical lessons for living and dying that are to be found from the study of NDEs. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Dr. Kenneth Ring, it is a book primarily for persons who feel their own lives could be enhanced by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience of our time. In short, Lessons from the Light attempts to give away the fruits of the NDE Tree of Knowledge without having to be crushed beneath its trunk in order to obtain them. Here readers will discover for themselves what others have had nearly to die to learn, and how their own lives can blossom in ways that are typical for persons who have undergone NDEs directly. Although Lessons from the Light recounts many moving stories of NDEs, it is not just another book filled with inspiring testimonies from near-death experiencers but with helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how readers can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion and concern for others, as well as to be better prepared for death, dying and bereavement. Thus, readers can easily apply what they have learned to their own lives and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation. Lessons
from the Light, then, is a treasury of both knowledge about and
wisdom now available from the exploration of NDEs, and, as such, a book
that at long last offers for everyone's consumption the sweet fruits of
the bountiful harvest near-death experiencers have reaped from their
journeys to the Light. Lessons from the Light
