“What becomes of the Soul after Death?” is an eternal quest of man since time immemorial. The soul is immortal. Life on earth is a halting-place on the way to the achievement of the goal of Life, God realization. Death is not the end of life but is a process of changing the instrument of experience. Birth is inevitably followed by death and death by rebirth. Life is a long chain, of which, recurring births, planetary lives, and deaths are the links.
Science about departed Souls and their planes of living is a subject of absorbing interest. The other side of the death is scientifically examined and carefully described in this book of Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj. It also gives an insight the different beliefs of various races and religions.
The significance of different practices and customs in connection with the dead along with the beneficial effects of such oblations is explained in detail in the following chapters. Presentation of some of the rebirth cases along with a question and answer section makes interesting reading. A careful study of the book will remove the veil of ignorance and the knowledge will make one free from horrors of death.
