Download or read book Spirituality Matters written by Mary Holt and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a wake up call for everyone. To enable them to look at the spiritual teachings that they where given as children. To realize that times have changed and must move on. We speak at length about the Indigo Children, these delightful, misunderstood children who have chosen to come onto the earth plane at this particular time to help to make the world a better place for everyone. Of course this will not happen overnight it will take many years to complete. We discuss the way that people here on the earth plane are destroying forests, polluting the sea. But more importantly, everyone is going about his or her business not giving eye contact to each other not speaking with each other, looking sad. There are lots of people who do not realize that we have moved into this new Age of Aquarius, some will never realize. There is a section on the fifteen lives that Mary and myself have spent together. This is to illustrate how sometimes our past lives entwine one with the other. I have dictated a very interesting piece of my unfinished work. We have already started the next book. I want people on the earth plane to know what happens when they pass over to the spirit realms. What happens to us? Where are we? What are we allowed to do? We want to alleviate the fear that people have about 'death' because no one ever dies we all live on. With much love I AM William Wordsworth
