Publisher's summary

A rare glimpse into heaven, hell, and previous lives.

Dr. Rajiv Parti's near-death experience brought him on a journey through the afterworld, leading to a spiritual awakening that transformed his career, his lifestyle, and even his fundamental beliefs.

Before his near-death experience, Dr. Rajiv Parti was a wealthy man of science with a successful career as the chief of anesthesiology at the Bakersfield Heart Hospital in California. He demanded the same success from his son, whose failures provoked episodes of physical abuse from Dr. Parti. All in all, Dr. Parti was the last man to believe in heaven or hell - that is, until he saw them with his own eyes.

When Dr. Parti had his near-death experience on the operating table, he first watched his own operation from the ceiling - even recalling a joke told by his doctors during his surgery. He was greeted by archangels and his deceased father, who led him through the tortures of hell and revealed the toxic cycle of violence that has plagued his family for generations. He even reviewed the struggles of his previous lives, which in many ways reflected those he still faced in the present. Finally he experienced heaven. From the angels he learned lessons of spiritual health that they insisted he bring down to earth. To do so, Dr. Parti knew, he had to change his ways.

After his near-death experience, Dr. Parti awoke a new man. He gave away his mansion, quit his career, opened a wellness clinic, and completely turned around his relationships with his family. To this day he still converses with angels and spreads their wisdom to the living.

In this remarkable true story of spiritual transformation, Dr. Parti provides rare details of heaven, hell, the afterlife, and angels. In sharing the lessons and eternal truths from the divine that changed him forever, Dr. Parti offers his audience the opportunity to attain peace and live better lives here on earth.

Simple, practical...enlightenment.

Sometimes we seek and make the goal harder than it is. This account gives me great personal hope for me and others.

Wake up call!!!

This book could not have come at a better time. My husband and I were driving home from a vacation when we got upsetting news. We listened to this book on a 6 Hour Drive home, completely turned us around, we arrived home happy and content rather than what would have been miserable fear laced drive....loved every second of this book!!

compelling

A compelling story with excellent narration. Highly recommend to anyone with any interest in spirituality

Loved it.

One of the ending quotes is one of the best I’ve ever read! Definitely worth the read!

Deeply moving

A truly fascinating and inspiring book. I enjoyed every part of it. I highly recommend it.

Great introduction to NDE

Kindness & Love

Very grateful that this book choose me….😎 Truly incredible. Beautiful storytelling. Love, kindness forgiveness. Loved it.

Materialist experiences Spiritual wake up call

This is a very easy listen, the personal story of a very materialist science-type getting a paranormal wake up call. The "what goes around comes around" message is woven throughout as Dr. Parti recognizes that pattern in (t)his life.

His Near Death Experience (NDE), which is also an Out-of-Body Experience (OBE), is fascinating and very detailed. Dr. Parti tells the story so that a first time reader about NDE gets a good introduction and overall explanation. Yet, his personal experience and the message given is unique to readers already familiar with pther NDE, OBE and Past Life books.

The book itself is an awakening experience. How deep and far depends on the listeners - methods for inner exploration and meditations are shared within the story, but we have to do our own work. Dr. Parti is working on a new method of healing with Consciousness and that part is a little nebulous. It doesn't come in a prescription bottle.

Incredible!

I'm going through a very difficult time withdrawing from a nearly 2 year addiction and dealing with the death of my brother as well as the death of someone I considered a good friend.

This book has given me spiritual insights I did not know I needed and I am very pleased to have come across this work!
I can safely say it has saved me from a deep pit of depression and has fueled my embarking on a new, spiritual voyage of self discovery.

My entire family are addicts, I'd like to think I've learned something here that I can use to help them when they are ready :)

If you are looking for some answers to life, you will probably find them here. Good luck!

Loved it! Gift it.

Story was well written and the narrator was best that I have ever experienced. Highly recommend.
Enjoyed so much that I gave books to sisters for Christmas. Big sister said that she couldn't put it down. She recommended it to a friend today.
