Testimony of Light
About This Book
Testimony of Light is one of the most remarkable and evidentially significant books in the literature of survival after death. Through a series of communications received via automatic writing by Helen Greaves beginning shortly after her death in 1965, Frances Banks — a former Anglican nun and founder of the College of Psychic Studies — describes in extraordinary detail her experiences in the afterlife realms: the initial rest and review process, the gradual release of the ego-structure accumulated over a lifetime, the nature of the 'grey country' where souls who are still attached to earthly identity temporarily reside, and the luminous beauty of the higher planes she eventually accesses.
What makes this account uniquely compelling is its psychological precision and theological sophistication. Frances Banks was an educated, thoughtful woman who brought her training in psychology and Christian mysticism to bear on describing conditions that no conventional framework fully prepares one for. Her accounts of 'thought buildings,' the healing halls, the gradual dissolution of the personality's armour, and the quality of consciousness at different levels of the afterlife carry a conviction that is difficult to dismiss. For anyone seeking the most detailed and spiritually grounded available picture of what may await consciousness beyond physical death, this book stands in a category of its own.
