JOURNEY BEYOND by Ivy Northage 1972 / 47 pages.

Ivy Northage can justifiably be termed one of Britain's best teaching mediums. For many years she has demonstrated her gifts not only in this country but also abroad, including Australia. This book features talks given by Chan - her spirit guide. In them he gives an illuminating insight concerning not only the process of passing on, but arriving in the spirit world and what one can expect to find. "The trees reflect colour and light," he says. "You are part of the tree, in tune with it; it feeds you. The flowers can dance and sing in their own particular way, without any of the expressions of dancing or singing as you know them." "There are fountains of spiritual replenishment, drops of water that change colour. You stand under them and are revitalized." Chan describes some of the various levels to be found in the spirit and astral worlds. He tells of the music, laughter and love which abound. "Far from being ghostly beings, the spirit world's inhabitants are solid to each other." Those who have suffered "long, lonely years of separation from dear ones" are reunited. Chan states that all on passing will stand upon the threshold and say: "Yes indeed, it was worth while. Everything I did was worth the effort, because this is joy so exquisite, so overwhelmingly beautiful that everything I paid for it was of little cost compared to what I have earned as a result of my efforts."
