Breaking the Death Habit; The Science of Everlasting life

Once I started reading this book I couldn't put it down. It is incredible. About a year ago I started seriously thinking about my own immortality but not really knowing how to begin to achieve my divine right of immortality. Leonard maps it out with humor, sensitivity and wisdom. It should be a must read on everyone's list. I am now practicing daily water/fire/earth and air purification according to Leonard's suggestions. Next will be over-coming the food/sleep addiction that we all seemingly have. Who knows I just might make it to immortality. Do yourself a favor and buy the book and then read it and then love yourself enough to start the purification processes as outlined by Leonard. Namasti.

Revolutionary perspective

First discovering this book years ago I purchased a dozen copies and gave them to friends. Not many of these friends actually found that the book spoke to them. Some even dropped me from their list of desirables. How audacious they said, "you must be afraid of dying"! This is not surprising as the idea of physical immortality appeals to very few people. Yet nothing could be further from the truth.The more I have investigated the subject and applied the principles that Leonard speaks of, the more I become alive and vital, and the more effortless is the enjoyment of this marvelous breathing experience we call "existing as human". This book then is one to read and return to, not for it's literary brilliance as one reviewer complained, but because it creates a new invaluable perspective of our possilities. As the Nobel prize winning poet, Theodore Rhedke (spelling?) says, "What we need are more people who specialize in the impossible." After reading this you may want to explore, Sondra Ray, Robert Coon, Analee Skarin, SATPREM'S The Mind of the Cells, and go to the website, www.livingtolive.com to mention only a few other sources of inspiration. By the way, I saw Leonard in January 2004 and he looks ageless, relaxed and is full of fun and laughter. Perhaps these principles when applied bear delicious fruit!
