Here and Hereafter

Following the success of his first books, Anthony Borgia received a deluge of letters requesting more information on various aspects of spirit and the afterlife. In response, Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson was able to furnish information which answered many of the questions. The resulting book was first published in a question-and-answer format. Later it was republished, without the original questions and with the contents subdivided into three sections; the threshold between this life and the next; the spirit world; and the spirit personality. Details are given of the perfections and permanence of the life after death, of the surroundings in which they live, of their pursuits and activities, and of the means of progress along the road to a higher perfection. Light is also shed on the way in which communication is possible between the inhabitants of the spirit world and their earth-bound contacts. Thought-transference, thought-communication and thought-power play their vital role in constructing the fabric of the spirit world -a world of harmony, peace and order-where fatigue is unknown. The communicator's aim is "to cast out of peoples' minds the fear of death and the hereafter," and all who believe in that life-as well as those still in doubt-will find here a wealth of information of immense value, interest and comfort.
