Regardless of their state of mind right after death, my subjects are full of exclamations about rediscovered marvels of the spirit world. Usually this feeling is combined with euphoria that all their worldly cares have been left behind, especially physical pain. Above all else, the spirit world represents a place of supreme quiescence to the traveling soul. Although it may at first appear we are alone immediately following death, we are neither isolated nor unaided. Unseen intelligent energy forces guide each of us through the gate.
