Unlike many other books on the subject of near-death experiences (NDEs), Lessons from the Light is intended mainly for those who have never had an NDE themselves but wish to learn from those who have. In clear language, the practical lessons for living and dying are to be found from the study of NDEs. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Dr. Kenneth Ring, Lessons from the Light is a book for those who looking to gain knowledge and wisdom to enhance their own lives by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience of our time. Listeners will discover for themselves what others have had nearly to die to learn, and how their own lives can blossom in ways that are typical for persons who have undergone NDEs directly. Although Lessons from the Light recounts many moving stories of NDEs, it is not just another book filled with inspiring testimonies but has helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how listeners can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion, and concern for others, as well as to be better prepared for death, dying, and bereavement. Listeners can apply what they have learned to their own lives and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation.
