Through the Mists: Leaves from the Autobiography of a Soul in Paradise
The Author disclaims all personal responsibility for this remarkable narrative, which he maintains he received direct through spirit agency. He merely plays the role of recorder on behalf of his “Angelic Visitors”.
Scarcely any book purporting to be a communication from the Other Side has achieved such lasting popularity. It is a narrative of singular charm and fascination, and grips the reader from start to finish. It is full of knowledge and inspiration and a wonderful comfort to anyone who has lost a loved one.
The sequel to “Through the Mists” is “The Life Elysian”, the latter being more experiences of a Soul in Paradise. The last of the series, “The Gate of Heaven” is the culmination of a never-to-be-forgotten narrative.
This remarkable book was first published in 1898, and reached its twentieth re-printing by 1952. It is the tale of “Aphraar” from his immediate awakening after-death, to his eventual passing through the “Gate of Heaven” some thirty years later. Aphraar, the narrator - in Earth Life known as Frederic Winterleigh - was well studied in the Bible, yet his experience of life after death was very contrary to that which he expected. What makes this series of books particularly fascinating is that when Aphraar asks a question about something that is other than he expected, the answers almost invariably refer directly to the Bible. In this way we soon see what a different interpretation can be put on the Bible, to that believed by orthodox Christians.

Very informative .
This book contains a lot of encouraging information about the spirit world. Although the style of writing is somewhat antiquated, and the author is quite long winded. Nevertheless it is still worthwhile reading.

jag ger denna bok 4 stjärnor troligen eftersom jag inte varit tillräckligt närvarande för att snappa upp all visdom i den.
men iaf här är huvudvisdomen
det är själen och det efterföljande livet som är det väsentliga, inte detta liv och det fysiska.
det du sår skall du skörda.
själens tillstånd bestämmer hur högt du kan gå.
gillade historien om kvinnan som fick hämnd på sin vännina som stal hennes kärlek men som trots det plågades av svartsjuka ändain i döden och hamnade i helvetet.
