We had a nice group for last evenings lecture on Near Death Experiences with Rev. Ralph Spears DD. The discussion covered everything from his clinical experience with the dying and those who confided in him about their near death experiences, to a timely discussion on how this all might relate to reincarnation. Rev. Ralph has an interesting background. He has study with members of the Edgar Cayce family, and is a scholar of the Dead Sea Scrolls. For those of you who do not know the name Edgar Cayce, he was known as the sleeping prophet. A most fascinating book about Cayce is There is a River.

The evening was quite fascinating, and related to our understanding of the depths of yoga practice in more ways than one. We hope to have Rev. Ralph with us again in the future for some other lively discussions.
