About the author

Canadian born, Manly Palmer Hall is the author of over 150 published works, the best known of which are Initiates of the Flame, The Story of Healing, The Divine Art,Aliens Magick and Sorcery The Secret Teachings of All Ages, and An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy.
He was also the author of a masonic curiosity, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry in 1923, more than thirty years before he joined a lodge. The preface of later editions states "At the time I wrote this slender volume, I had just passed my twenty-first birthday, and my only contact with Freemasonry was through a few books commonly available to the public." Later, in 1944, he wrote The Secret Destiny of America which popularized the myth of a masonic purpose for the founding of the USA. In 1950 he weighed in again on the meaning of Freemasonry with his booklet: Masonic Orders of Fraternity.

The eternal questions: where do we come from, why are we here, where are we going to? Are we dead once our physical bodies die, or is there something that survives? If the former then this is where the story ends, if the latter then this book provides some possible answers. All religions try to give answers to their followers; some of some sort of paradise for the righteous ones, others of a cycle of rebirth. Whatever someone's personal beliefs this book can provide either a new, or a deepened perspective for the reader.
