To Danny, my true love: Ive always known that our love extends beyond time and space. If not for you, I wouldnt be here in this physical life today.

To my dear mother, and my wonderful brother, Anoop: Thank you for being there for me through my life, but most especially though my illness, and caring for me when I needed you most. I wish everyone had a family who cared about them the way you care about me.

In memory of my dear father, whose biggest dream was to see my wedding, but who left this realm before the big day: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience your infinite presence and unconditional love in the other realm, and for assuring me that youre here, there, and everywhere.

I believe that the greatest truths of the universe dont lie outside, in the study of the stars and the planets. They lie deep within us, in the magnificence of our heart, mind, and soul. Until we understand what is within, we cant understand what is without.

I share my story here in the hope of touching your heart in some way and reminding you of your own magnificence.

I have been deeply and profoundly touched by the contents of this book, and even more so by my personal relationship with Anita Moorjani, who came into my life through a series of Divinely orchestrated coincidences. For more than four years, an advancing cancer brought Anita to deaths doorstep and beyondinside the house of death itself, way beyond the doorway and the entrance hall, if you will. Anita has described it all in great detail in this soul-searching book. I encourage you to read it very carefully and thoughtfully with a mind thats open to having many of your cherished beliefs challenged, especially about what lies beyond this world, in whats often called the hereafter.

Surrounded by loved ones and a medical team anticipating her last breath at any moment, Anita lay in a deep coma. Yet she was given the opportunity to return to her cancer-ravaged body, defying all odds, and experience incredible healingthrough the vehicle of unconditional love. More than this, she was allowed to return from the chamber of death and report to all of us what life on the other side of this corporeal world looks likeand of even more significance, feels like.

This is a love storya big, unconditional love story that will give you a renewed sense of who you truly are, why youre here, and how you can transcend any fear and self-rejection that defines your life. Anita speaks with uncommon candor about her cancer, explaining why she believes she had to go down this treacherous road in her life, why she feels she was healed, and why she returned. And make no mistake about it, her lifes mission is in a very big way reflected in the fact that youre about to read her report of this experienceand that Im so involved in helping to get this crucial message out to the world.

What Anita discovered during her 24-hour coma when she passed through the doorway into the other realm is remarkably aligned with all that Ive been receiving in inspired moments of writing and speaking. Its clear to both of us that Divine intervention took over and moved the pieces around in such a way that this woman living on the other side of the world, in a culture quite dissimilar from my own, was escorted into my awareness and my physical life.

I first heard of Anita when I received a copy of her near-death experience (NDE) interview from a woman in New York named Mira Kelley, who later became a friend and did a past-life regression on me (which is published in my book Wishes Fulfilled.) After one reading of Anitas NDE report, I felt irresistibly called to do all that I could within my limited power to get her compelling message out to the world. I called Reid Tracy, the president of Hay House, and urged him to find Anita Moorjani and ask her to write a book detailing her experience in-depth. I added that I would be pleasedno,
