The Body Dies, but the Spirit Lives On

In this unusual autobiography R. J. R. Rockwood describes the end of his previous

incarnation, and how relieved he felt at separation from his physical body. He then

viewed his future parents from the Aft erlife. He was spiritually present during his own

birth, aft er which his spirit became attached to his newborn self.

Rockwood describes an invisible playmate and interactions with various ghosts.

Aft er mindreading demonstrations at recess with his fi ft h grade classmates, he terrifi ed

a new boy and was sentenced to detention, during which he projected his spirit out of

body to fl y over the playground. At the University of Florida his telepathic ability became

the basis of a Master's thesis.

Th is and other experiences in Rockwood's life are described in his latest literary

endeavor, Th e Body Dies but the Spirit Lives On.
