In my search into the meaning of life, I made contact with God. What I learned about humanity, our purpose in living, the history of Christianity, my personal voyage into myself, and my travels by telepathy are all communicated in this book.
About the Author
I was born in 1924 to a father who was an atheist and keen Darwinian, and mother who was faithful to the Church of England and Establishment, so I was consequently born into religious argument. My father used Darwin's theory to breed Cocker Spaniels and first produced a Crufts champion of class, then followed on with a Cruft's supreme champion. Having proved his point he gave up breeding. He taught me to question all things- never to accept what I was told without going into it thoroughly. I followed this advice with religion and life in general. My father could never persuade me that God did not exist as I knew, within myself, that God is, and that life is, eternal.
I was psychic, much to the concern of my parents. This taught me to accept strange experiences as being a normal part of life. This proved useful leter in life when strange things happened to me.
Being left-handed, my father treated me as subnormal, whilst at school I was thrashed across my left hand to force me to write with my right hand. Being stubborn, I simply stopped writing and this lasted until I was in my 50s. Then God told me to write down my experiences.
Demobilised after World War II, I married Patricia, a wonderful companion. We raised the family but then, in my 40s, I developed arthritis due to a wartime spinal injury. Told there was no cure, a voice spoke to me saying "God helps those who help themselves". Looking to God for help I went seeking a cure and was led into finding one. I continued to follow where God led me until, at age 50, I broke through to my Awakening - the opening of a new way of sensing. At that moment my mind, freed from the constraints of my body, went out beyond the cosmos into the Being of God, where I learned many things.
For the next 25 years I had a marvellous time exploring this greater life, learning about the past, about mankind and about those heavnely mysteries. Then I had a heart attack and everything stopped! Since then I have collated my notes and produced this account.
I hope that you the reader, will find it as fascinating as I did and hope that you, too, will be encouraged to look to God for guidance in order to seek that which Jesus callled the Higher Life, the next step forward in our evolution.
Believe me, it's worth it!
