Beyond the Broken Gate

by Charles Graybar

Beyond the Broken Gate, An Ordinary Man's Extraordinary Journey In Learning Who We Are, Why We Live And Where We're Going. Author Charles Graybar was a fixture in corporate America as a senior executive of a Fortune 100 corporation and sitting member on several boards of directors. As he he reached his early 40's, despite his financial success and accumulation of material "things" he became aware that his life felt tremendously empty. In 1993 while experimenting with a combination of meditation and hybrid contemplation techniques Charles Graybar stumbled across an unprecedented gateway in perception; a state of awareness where he was able to communicate with some form of advanced spiritual entity that he was unable to identify at first. His early training in physics made it nearly impossible to accept what had occured. Over time though, he learned that his discovery was, in fact, real. Beyond the Broken Gate is a chronicle of Graybar's experiences over the past 10 years and the enlightenment he received from the advanced spiritual entities on questions such as, why we live, what purpose there is in God's allowing suffering to occur, what we're meant to do with our lives and where we're going when we leave this state of awareness.

Graybar's book describes his extraordinary experiences as a soul in the nonphysical realm. I have been able to correlate most of his experiences with other spiritual sources. This gives me some confidence that his experiences were not fantasies.

It gives a potential consistent explanation about why we're alive and what's our purpose. So yeah, it's quite interesting. :)
