People Lives In Between Lives What happens to a soul when the body dies? It’s been assumed that there is some kind of judgment involved, followed by different things, depending on your belief system — descent into a fiery pit, ascension into heaven, or a return to this physical plane in another mortal body.

This culminated in a life shifting event in 1990 in which he was captured by Saddam Hussein’s army, and held hostage for over three months. It was during that period of captivity that Cunningham pledged to dedicate his life to helping others.”

The Fourth Dimension by Rudolf Steiner

There are few words that can be said about a book concerned with extra dimensional reality that a three dimensional being could use or even know.
