What happens to us when we die? What is the soul? Where are heaven
and hell? Is there a reckoning with the creator?
Questions such as these about death and dying have frightened and
fascinated humanity since the beginning of time. Life After Death
explores these questions in detail by providing a general overview
of answers from the scriptures of seven world religions: Hinduism,
Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and the
Bahá'í Faith.
The book examines the viability of reincarnation and transmigration
theories, as well as various ideas that attempt to explain near-death
experiences. Theological scholarship combined with insight and sensitivity
make this book thoroughly readable, a simple introduction to profound
and complicated subjects.
