To the Beginning and Journey Through Here (A Couple Through Time, #8)

Zoe and Tod go vision questing on a mountain in Yosemite Park and find out they have died. Transported to a Way-Station world, they are joined by an angelic being who serves as their guide. In the after world, they experience colors, each producing an exotic experience which challenges their conception of being. The couple also encounters people who still carry earthly possessions and hurts they need to discard. The end holds a surprise for which the reader will have to answer. Read this book for a novel perspective on the immediate afterlife beyond death.

The author imagines a world beyond death. Although he has not personally had a classic after-death vision, he has had a symbolic "death" experience in a pschological and spiritual way. This experience helped to offer a persepective into an archetypal vision of the universe in which consciousness continues. He also has gained this vision from his work and publications in science, which details evolution producing regular pulses, in which consciousness increases.
