"The pain caused by bereavement can at first be so great that both heart and mind are closed to all healing and to all light. Death seems to bring final, irrevocable loss; to be a judgment from which there is no appeal. This book is written primarily to bring the consolation and the illumination of the teachings of Theosophy to those who have suffered such bereavement, and also to provide information for those seeking knowledge concerning man and, more especially, his life after death. Theosophy affirms that, since the Spiritual Soul of man is immortal, it is only the body which dies. In their essential nature, power of understanding and love, their life interests, character and human traits, the departed have not died. The well-known, well-loved human being lives on after bodily death. He but goes to another world, somewhat removed from this one it is true, but still quite near. The separation is not irrevocable; those who love and have been parted by death will meet again. Theosophy tells whether the deceased have gone, under what conditions they now exist and how reunion will occur. Definitely and precisely, Theosophy answers all questions of the sorrowing heart. It offers neither vague tenets nor Scriptural texts alone and makes no appeal to blind faith; for its teachings are founded upon centuries of scientifically conducted research, the results of which have been checked and counter-checked by successive generations of trained Seers. - GEOFFREY HODSON"
