ABOUT THE BOOK

PREFACE 1

Is there an unseen world beyond the physical realm? What happens after death? Will we see our loved ones again? As a Rabbi, I must help the bereaved deal with their losses. The performance of religious rituals can help one through the stages of mourning, but this often proved insufficient. People want to hear more about the spiritual world. I speak words of comfort and give them a sense of hope that the separation is temporary.

I have no doubt of Sally’s sincerity. She has received a series of messages that you will find amazing, just as she herself did. Many times, she has called me to relate another dream and set of instructions. You can hear it in her voice and see it in her drawings: someone or some power in the spirit world has awakened something from a prior life. Is it a genetic memory, passed down from her ancestors? Is it the resurrection of talents from a previous lifetime?

There was a time when I was very skeptical in reading about past-life regression. I even suspected that the most renowned writers and experts in the field were fabricating the stories for fame and financial gain. But my own personal experiences have raised the possibility that there may be truth to what they were relating.

On April 15, 2004, my first-born son, Gershom, ended his life. His suicide followed those of the uncle for whom I was named and also of my father. On the day of my father’s death, I felt an excruciating pain in my mouth where none should have been felt. A tooth and its root had previously been removed. I knew there was no physical cause for the pain and so I sat calmly for ten seconds and it went away. A few hours later, I learned that my dad had shot himself at that very moment. Was the pain a signal from the spirit world?

The evening after Gershom’s death, it appears that he attempted to return to this world by entering my body. Doubters may snicker and say that it was strictly a dream; indeed, that was how it began. In retrospect, I conclude that would have been the most opportune time for him to attempt such a return. He repeated over and over, Help me, don’t let me be dead. I tried to reawaken, to get help, to yell for others to assist, but it was futile. I was asleep and horrified. The next day, my colleague and mentor, Rabbi Larry Winer of Fort Lauderdale offered the theory that I had been trapped between two worlds. Perhaps it was Gershom who was struggling between the two dimensions. But empathy for my son created a sense of dread that I myself was in a tug of war between life and death. In this struggle, I rolled out of bed and hit my head on the nightstand. The pain should have been enough to bring me out of the nightmare. Yet, I could not open my eyes or rise to my feet.

With a roommate’s assistance, I arose. However, I had absolutely no control over my arms; they hung limp by my side. I was in disbelief. I could neither feel them nor move them. Apparently Gershom had not yet relinquished control; he was desperately trying to remain in the physical world. Here is a former skeptic telling you that this truly happened. I observed in amazement as another force maintained control: opening the medicine cabinet, lathering my face and shaving my beard in jerky motions that I was fearful would result in severe cuts. I was in a trance-like state. I did not dress myself. This other force did so, and it was nearly 45 minutes total that I believe that my son revisited the physical world.

This book is Sally’s story, so I refrain from sharing many more details of my own experiences. Suffice it to say that I have growing awareness of a previous lifetime. And there are continuing momentary glimpses into another dimension that are accompanied by physical manifestations which can be scientifically witnessed. I have come to believe in some of the phenomena I previously discredited. And I am convinced that Sally has been in contact with the spiritual world.

You will learn much and be transformed by what you shall read and see. There are consistent laws, truths, and principles in the physical world. Sally’s story will take you on a journey to explore the reality of the spiritual realm. Someday we shall meet.

PREFACE 2

Today we are definitely living in the Age of Miracles. There’s a spiritual shift amidst, a shift from the outer to the inner. We are becoming contemplative and more of us are becoming receptive to life’s mysteries. We are awakening! You realize nothing is as it seems and your quest has begun.

My spiritual journey started when I was in my mid-twenties. I’d emerged from college with two degrees and learned I knew little of what mattered. I became open to the teachings and the many different beliefs of

Edgar Cayce, Ruth Montgomery, and many other authors who have been mislabeled as New Age. Today my library is filled with a wide range of books from Brian Weiss, Neale Walsh, the Dali Lama, Esther and Jerry Hicks, Wayne Dyer, Sylvia Browne, Zecharia Sitchin, the Nag Hammadi writings, the Course in Miracles, and hundreds more! I realized early on that one could walk a spiritual path with or without adhering to a religion. As much as I’ve read, contemplated, and meditated, I still cannot clearly define the spiritual concept.

One afternoon, my friend, Sally, and I decided it was time for her to share her miraculous story and commit it to paper. In light of what happened to Sally, my thought was that we should begin with the enlightening task of defining what spirituality is. I couldn’t believe how inept we were. I had a lifetime of study and also met many spiritually-advanced beings on my journey, but we still couldn’t define spirituality. The word is so laden with contradictory meanings. For
