“Life in the World Unseen” gives an extensive account of what happens after physical death. This is the first of five books received through the mediumship of Anthony Borgia, who was a friend of the spirit author, Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson. While living on earth, Monsignor Benson was the son of a former Bishop of Canterbury.
The book brings beautiful spirit communications that strongly support the cause & effect relationship that exists between living on earth and living in the afterlife.
Because the Monsignor was a friend of the medium, Anthony Borgia, his messages are told in the first person, as one who now resides in the spirit world.
The spirit, Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson, delightfully shows us, with both humour and compassion, how many of our preconceived notions of ‘the next life’ are substantially incorrect.
One of this spirit’s great regrets from his earth life was that he too added to the general misconceptions of the afterlive by his own earthly writing, “The Necromancers”, a book which dealt with the subject of spirit return, but which gave a distorted view of the facts.
Life in the World Unseen has enabled the Monsignor to redress his wrongs.
On passing to the spirit world, every person, regardless of color or creed, will find themselves the inheritors of precisely the spiritual home to which their earthly lives have befitted them. “Whatever a man sows, that shall he reap”, and the spirit world is the land of the great harvest, the seeds of which were sown upon the earth, giving this phrase its full and just application.
Those who find themselves in the bleak and meagre surroundings of the dark realms have only themselves to reproach, for what they see about them is an outward expression of the current state of their spiritual progression. Just as the beauties of the light realms are created and upheld by theirs inhabitants, so have the conditions of the dark realms been brought about: beauty of deed and thought can produce nothing but beauty. But there is hope in that life in the spirit worlds is an eternity of progression, if the sould so chooses
