a contemporary book of the dead
Three Books of the Dead
There are now three Books of the Dead. Many have heard of two of these books-the Egyptian and the Tibetan-but few have read them. I have written the third book, John Ransom Phillips - A Contemporary Book of the Dead in the tradition of preparing for the afterlife. It serves to guide us by celebrating our earthly existence in all its fullness. These pages tell of the restorative power of the unconscious; of the rejuvenation and resurrection that take place every night; and of the sweetness and pleasure of the body that continue into the afterlife.
