There is no death

There is no death.

After the death of the body

The personality continues to live.

From the author

Death is not at all what we most often imagine it to be. When we die, we all have to see and experience many things that we do not expect and do not think about. By knowing a little more, we will have less fear and less suffering.

The work of modern resuscitators has allowed us to look beyond the limits of earthly life and learn a little more than we have known before. The first chapters of the book will be about this.

Christianity teaches that the soul is immortal and that after the death of the body it passes into other conditions of reality and continues to exist consciously. You could believe in it or not. Happy are those who could believe simply and deeply, without entering into any thoughts. Their lives were brighter and better. But not everyone has such a faith. Modern man, even those who are close to faith in God, are accustomed to thinking, searching, and looking for confirmation. There is nothing wrong with that. One of the paths to faith leads through searching, through knowledge. Unbelief is never the result of knowledge. Anyone who claims that knowledge destroys faith is deceiving.

I am deeply grateful to Drs. Sabom, Moody, Kübler-Ross, and others, whose work has helped me to strengthen the beginnings of my faith and to understand a little better what is really important in life.

Dying can be very difficult, but it can be as easy as the transition from waking to dreaming. Death is to be expected and met in such a way that dying is dignified and not very difficult. Chapters on dying illness and dying are devoted to this.

Not much will be said about the afterlife and life in it in the book. In our time, science has lifted the veil on this mystery, but we will touch only on what seems really reliable. Chapter 9 is an attempt to consider the latest scientific evidence in the light of Christian teaching on the other world.

Chapter 14 is about the last illness and what can help the patient in the last months of his life.

Chapters 18 and 19 contain some advice to the patient's relatives on how and how to alleviate the suffering of him and himself. Most of these tips are old and true, but now forgotten. There are also several new ones, the effectiveness of which has been tested by scientists who study death.
