From the moment you are conceived, your journey to death begins. It is a scary subject for many, because it is a fear of the unknown. Will I simply cease to exist? Is there really a heaven or hell? Will I leave a legacy behind?
There are many books written about near-death and life-changing experiences. Until now, I had not read any of them. When my mom passed away recently, an excerpt from “90 Minutes in Heaven” was read during her memorial service, and the passage was comforting. I decided to read it for myself, and here is my review:
Where will YOU go after you die? Have you read this book, or others like it? Do you believe in Heaven?
I believe in Buddhist philosophy which tells about the cycle of birth and death until one gets enlightenment. Heaven and Hell can be interpreted as places where an entity enjoys the fruits of the good deeds and bad, they can be anywhere in the universe including our earth.
Books like this one, and stories told by those who have "died" are very interesting, and I can see how they would be comforting. I absolutely believe that we go on after death. As a Christian I am even more comforted by the Biblical stories of death and how easily Jesus raised the dead, who he referred to as being "asleep".
