Toward The Light

TOWARD THE LIGHT
~ Monday, 15 May 2006 & 20 January 2008 ~

Beverly Brodsly ~ In 1970 Beverly Brodsky was taken into the heart of creation and back to the moment before the Big Bang. Her NDE taught her everything that matters: who we are, why we are here, and the nature of reality. Her account is the concluding one in Dr. Kenneth Ring’s book Lessons from the Light (1998), which he calls the most complete in his collection. She is also featured in Kevin Williams’ Nothing Better than Death (2002), PMH Atwater’s The New Children and the Near-Death Experience (2003), and Arvin Gibson’s They Saw Beyond Death (2006). She now coordinates the San Diego chapter of the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS)

A Vassar graduate who retired from 28 years of service for the Federal Government, Beverly is a freelance book editor who is also working on her own book, including insights from hundreds of others culled from 17 years of running support groups on both coasts. She is fascinated by the connection between deathbed visions (DBVs) and near-death experiences (NDEs), as well as their similarity to mystical states. An acclaimed international speaker, Beverly finds connections in the new sciences and ancient wisdom that confirm the reality and power of transformative spiritual awakenings. She was profiled in McCall’s, featured in a BBC documentary (The Human Body), was featured in the first NDE program ever broadcast on Israeli public radio, and is included in the 2006 edition of Who’s Who in America.

Dear Juliet: It was a terrific show and I really enjoyed being on with you. You have such a wonderful gift that really sparkles on the air. I loved it! Love and light. ~ Beverly Brodsly (California)

I am so enjoying the chat with Beverly Brodsky on the radio show. It has been so helpful to listen to the discussion; it has reminded me that often things happen that may not make sense to us from the outer human ego level of thought. Really a great show—one of peace and love—reminding me that I have to be peace and love first of all. It is perhaps the essence of the spirit that comes through at these times. So many good thoughts and reminders came through as you and Beverly talked. ~ Peter Tufts (Washington)

Lessons from the Light is a treasure; radiant, direct, and moving. Like the light seen in the near-death experience, Dr. Ring's masterpiece is replete with messages and healing gifts for anyone who picks it up.  It is impossible to read through this book with an open mind and not be transformed by its message, woven together from the many golden threads in his cases.

Even if you never have a near-death experience (NDE) on the surgeon's table, in a car accident or during a heart attack, you can reap the spiritual benefits claimed by NDErs. Through meditation, study and mental exercises, you can tap into the healing energy of the loving, nonjudgmental Being of Light glimpsed by many at death's door. You can simulate a panoramic life-review of your entire existence, catapulting your values away from competitive materialism and toward love, service, cooperation; and you can integrate the insights commonly reported by NDErs into daily practical living.   Veteran NDE researcher Ring (The Omega Project), here writing with Swiss NDE investigator Valarino, includes many previously unpublished NDE cases and distills techniques he has taught at workshops and university courses. Ring presents intriguing evidence to support his belief that NDEs represent an authentic, objective experience, not a self-protective hallucination or a neurological artifact of a dying brain. This material includes reports of out-of-body experiences, children's NDEs, blind people gaining sight during NDE episodes, and NDErs whose brush with death apparently unleashed paranormal or healing abilities. 

While providing many accounts of near-death experiences (NDEs) from men, women, and children of all ages and backgrounds, Lessons from the Light is more than just an inspiring collection of NDEs. In what many consider his strongest book, Kenneth Ring extracts the pure gold of the NDE and with a beautiful balance of science and human insight reveals the practical wisdom held within these experiences. 
 
Lessons from the Light will help you to live your life with greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and concern for others. Many readers report it also extinguishes their fears of death and dying. 

Enjoy this radiant, heart-centred 'capstone' of Dr. Ring’s 20 years of research on what the NDE teaches us about life’s meaning, and that the positive spiritual transformations NDErs experience can be 'caught' by researchers and seekers alike like a winter flu.  This is a book you will remember and cherish.
