These two books below both fascinated me. They are not really ‘spiritual’ books in the classic sense, at least not directly, both being concerned with ‘death’ or what we consider death.
‘You Cannot Die’ by Ian Currie I found in a used bookstore and bought it on a whim. I was surprised to find that Currie was also from Vancouver BC and about my age. His book was well written and absolutely fascinating…. not scientific or theoretical… just anecdotal stories of death. After this book your fear of dying subsides by about 80%. I was so excited about this book that I wanted to talk to Ian… I tried to find him… he had moved to Toronto where I was prepared to travel to interview him before I found that he had…. yes… died! But the first thought that hit me is that he was just so excited to experience this for himself he just decided to go. I’m not worried about him. I’ll catch up to him and we’ll talk someday. In the meantime if you can find this book (or the one below) I strongly recommend them.
Here’s another masterpiece of after-death communication… meticulously researched and it builds like a well written drama. ‘The Airmen Who Would Not Die’ by John Fuller stays with you through life. It’s the fascinating real-life story of communications from a dead airman around the time of the British airships R100 and R101. Again strongly recommended. Fuller also wrote the excellent companion piece ‘The Ghost of Flight 401’ – the story of an airliner that crashed in the Florida everglades and how the parts salvaged and used on other aircraft triggered visits from the deceased. Fuller is an excellent storyteller. You’ll recognize many of the famous people in this book.
