Abstract: "An explanation of the causes, dynamics and potential benefits of life's transformative events or "spiritual emergencies" which can trigger emotional or psychic reactions ranging from near-death experiences, ESP, visions, and profound religious experiences. Because one's view of reality changes drastically when having these experiences, the immediate effect can be confusion, depression, physical illness, suicidal behaviour or other crises. This book is a guide to knowing what to do when one has one of these "spiritual emergencies" and is intended to be of help in spreading awareness of the meaning of these episodes and to encourage creative response." -- Amazon.
