Realms of the Living Dead

About this book

What becomes of the person who dies while still attached to earthly desires? Harriette and F. Homer Curtiss describe an afterlife arranged into regions where the dead confront their habits, beliefs and unfinished development.

Their account blends occult teaching with descriptions of spirits close to the physical world and others moving towards clearer states of awareness. It is presented as a spiritual cosmology, with its own rules of progress and consequence. The most interesting passages imagine how the smallest human attachments might follow a soul across the threshold of death.
