If you could speak with any deceased person, who would it be, and what would you ask them? These are the questions author and channeler Joanne Helfrich was faced with when many no-longer-physical authors were willing-even eager-to speak through her. But how would she choose who came through, and what would they say? Afterlives is a startling collection of afterlife accounts from some of the most extraordinary people of our times: Anthony Bourdain, Hunter S. Thompson, Ayn Rand, Martin Luther King, Jr., Harriet Tubman, John Barron (former slaver), Thomas Paine, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Albert Einstein, Carl Jung, Hildegard von Bingen, Paramahansa Yogananda, J.D. Salinger, George Harrison, Douglas Adams, James Baldwin, Kurt Vonnegut, Aldous Huxley, Robin Williams, and Jane Roberts, author of the Seth Material.

The authors reflect on their physical lives, describe their afterlives, comment on world events, and share their stunning perspectives on the nature of reality.

In addition to providing wisdom and timely commentary, the book:

Supports postmodern scientific views that consciousness is primary Endorses religious doctrines of the existence of God, spiritual beings, and eternal life of the human soul Celebrates physical life and the afterlife Discourages suicide; since we go as we are, there’s no better time to resolve our issues than now Encourages us to connect with our own Divinity

AFTERLIVES is evidence that there is life after death, that we are surrounded by helpful spiritual energies, and that life is precious and limitless.
