Is there life after death? Is there a rhyme or reason to the events of our life? Although many think that we cannot find the answers in our lifetime, Dr. Richard G. Shear believes that the secrets of the universe have been revealed to us. The Secrets of Life and Death provides the answers to such questions as: What is our purpose on Earth? Why does God allow evil to exist? And what can we do to make our lives better? Additionally, The Secrets of Life and Death provides evidence that establishes what truly happens to us when we die. The author is the father of a miracle son who fought back from a low birth weight of 1 lb. 1 oz. to become an incredible young man. He is also the father who lost one of his twin sons. As a high school principal, Shear has supervised the education of thousands of young people, but nothing changed his life like the unexplained, momentous events in 1995, when on more than one occasion, the child who passed away sent him messages of love and comfort, proving that consciousness survives death. "Death is wrongly defined as an end," argues Shear. "It is a doorway transitioning our soul to another vibrational state that we live in." Knowledge that we never die and that our lives have an understandable purpose is comforting, but the information in this book that is designed to make our everyday lives more joyful and rewarding, is invaluable. Written in three parts for clarity, each focusing on one of the three crucial questions, it is important to understand that our existence is aligned with a single thread. What happens when we die, why we are here, and tips on living our lives are all parts of the greater whole. "Everything that appears to be senseless is actually happening as a result of the laws of the universe," says Shear. "Laws that are simple and elegant." We were put on Earth at this time to learn, and the lessons unfold, page by page in Secrets of Life and Death, where the creative force is defined as pure love.
