Book Description  
In his sequel to Beyond the Ashes: Cases of Reincarnation from the Holocaust, Rabbi Yonassan Gershom brings together the stories of fourteen people who, despite their memories of having lived, and died, during the horror of the Holocaust, have achieved miraculous healing of body, mind, and spirit. As expressed by Brad Steiger, author of Returning from the Light, who wrote the preface to this book, "Rabbi Gershom and his fourteen fellow storytellers express the kind of unconditional love that can heal the painful soul memories of past lives ... and -- God willing -- the entire planet." All readers will find hope and inspiration from this collection. 

The author, Rabbi Yonassan Gershom (rooster@pinenet.com) , July 14, 1999 
The companion book to BEYOND THE ASHES  
If you liked my previous book, BEYOND THE ASHES, and would like to read some in-depth personal stories on healing Holocaust past-life traumas, told by real people in their own words, then you will love this companion book, FROM ASHES TO HEALING. 

More than a sequel, this book gives you gripping first-person narratives about people who have had mystical encounters with the Holocaust: past life memories of being in concentration camps; earthbound souls still at the site of Auschwitz; a group of spirit rabbis appearing in dreams and visions to heal lost souls; a Jewish sculptor inspired by spirits of Holocaust victims she knew in another life, etc. This is not a book of dry scientific "case histories." Rather, it is a heartfelt collection of personal testimonials, written by people from a wide range of backgrounds, from Orthodox Jews to gentile New Agers. 

FROM ASHES TO HEALING is also the original source of "The Clock," the now-famous story of how Canadian goat farmer Bruce Whittier dreamed of -- and found! -- an antique clock that he owned during his Holocaust past life. His story has been featured on the "Science Mysteries" (BBC) and "Sightings" (Paramount) programs, and has been written up in numerous articles reviews. 

Plus, you can read my own story, "The Circle of Torah," about how writing two books on Holocaust reincarnation cases -- and working with the wonderful people included in them -- has helped me, too, to find inner healing and closure about the Holocaust. If, after reading this book, you, too, have a story to share, e-mail me about joining my online discussion group. (Put GERSHOM LISTSERV in the message header so I'll see it ASAP.)
