The second book in this series is Between Life and Death – Conversations with a Spirit by Dolores Cannon. This is the first book of Dolores’ that I started reading just after I completed my Level 1 QHHT Practitioner training.
In this book Dolores explores and documents past-life experiences that hundreds of her clients have relayed to her whilst in a deep hypnotic state. Many subjects include, guides and guardian angels, ghosts and poltergeists, planning your present lifetime and karmic relationships before your birth, the significance of bad lifetimes and perceptions of God and the Devil.
Here are just a few highlights from the book that I found considerably profound and that also challenged my core beliefs and values around Life and Death and the everything ‘in between’.
Chapter 1 - The Death Experience
Dolores: Does pain have a purpose?
Client: Pain is a teaching tool. Sometimes it is used to humble certain people. Sometimes a haughty spirit can be brought down and taught to be more gracious through suffering. It may teach them that they must eventually learn to rise above the pain, and then they can deal with it. Sometimes just understanding the pain and why we have it, lessens the pain.
Chapter 4 – The Schools
Dolores: Many people ask me why we don’t remember our past lives. They think it would help a lot if we consciously knew about these karmic connections.
Client: It wouldn’t. It would make things too complicated. Can you imagine how difficult it would to function in the everyday world if you had the memories of countless past lives bombarding you? You would never be able to concentrate on the lessons you have to work out during this lifetime.
Chapter 7 – So Called “Bad” Lives
Dolores: So what is the purpose of reincarnation? To correct what you did in the past?
Client: The purpose is to learn more. To always learn more. For never can you learn all there is in one simple lifetime. The purpose of living again is not to correct, but to add to. It is all in attitude. For that which you create, you live, and that which you live, you create.
Dolores has written many books and if you haven’t read any of her works, I would recommend starting with this one.
