In The Between

What if it is true?  What if you don't go to Heaven…or Hell when you die?  What if karma does exist?  What if you do reincarnate into another life to try to learn about your past mistakes and get to balance out any of your or others' misdeeds? 

In the Between is the story of a woman who dies and travels through the Bardo.  Meaning she is going from one life to the next.  The term Bardo comes from the Tibetan Book of the Dead.  Its meaning is loosely translated as: The In Between.  Souls travel through it for 49 days, during which time they are encouraged to accept any one of numerous heavens.

But our soul, in the story, is not Buddhist, she is from the West.  Right from the start, as soon as she arrives at the Bardo, she is surprised to discover something startling about her soul. And being the kind of woman she's become through the countless lives—she believes she has lived—she developed her own belief system.  Based on her ideas about the Bardo she agrees to re-live her past lives that took place in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, Jerusalem, Istanbul, Spain, Brussels, France, England, the U.S., and India.  During those lives she discovers why she made choices causing karma that must be balanced in her future for further evolution of her soul.   

She learns about the complexity of the soul and how thinking people develop their ideas about God, the universe, energy, but most importantly why souls on planet earth, at all.
