Although, I do believe in life after death, this book was a reiteration of other books I've read on this subject. It really wasn't anything new or refreshing. It lack a soul (no pun intended). This wasn't, When dreams may come.

Worth reading. A great book. I believe Mary and life after death!

Ms. Browne is clear in her beliefs and in her presentation of her subject matter. She answers the questions about life that all of us have and provides a feeling of at last having found answers that make sense! This book is definitely a "must read" for anyone who is searching for the answers to the meaning of life, the question of an afterlife, etc. It far exceeds anything that traditional teaching has heretofore offered.

I'm not going to bash this book because overall I found author Mary Browne's explanation of karma and anecdotal evidence of how it works to be effective and interesting.
But she could have reduced the size of this book and saved some trees in the process by cutting back on the amount of time she spends praising herself.
To say Mary Browne is full of herself is an understatement. This is an author who can barely get through a passage without shoe-horning in some reference to how gifted or evolved she is.
For instance, she brags that she has a spirit guide - something she points out that most people don't have because they just aren't good enough.
The descriptions of her sessions as a psychic to the wealthy ooze with arrogance, self-importance and condescension.
The only person she seems to believe has surpassed her at all is her mysterious teacher, Lawrence, whom she emphasizes selected her as a pupil presumably because - you got it - she was just so darn worthy.
The book is peppered with conversations between her and this near-perfect fellow in which they dazzle each other with their brilliance.
After reading this book, while the concept of karma was clearer, the author remained a puzzle. Is Mary Browne really as egotistical as she appears or is she so insecure that she feels the need to prove her importance to readers ad nauseum?
If it truly is karma to learn from the missteps of our current lives, perhaps author can learn something from her own book and exercise a little humility in the next life.

When I first got this book I loved it but later when I got more into spiritual things I started to disagree with some of the things she says. All and all this is a good book.

I bought this book after reading "Life After Death" which I loved. I find both books to be a great guide for living. I have read this book at least five times and I always become a better person everytime.
