Beyond death; the gates of consciousness

By Stanislav and Christina Grof.

'Stanislav and Christina Grof have assembled vivid documentation from many religions and cultures: Christian, Jewish, Moslem, ancient Greek, Persian, Egyptian, East Indian, Tibetan, Pre-Columbian and various pre-literate societies. They draw illuminating parallels with the accounts of those who have survived clinical death, and the death and rebirth episodes experienced by schizophrenic patients and by those who have passed through psychedelic states induced under controlled conditions and explored in experimental psychiatry.'
