The Soul's Rememberance: Earth Is Not Our Home

Summary: "Remembrance" Is Fuzzy
Review: I purchased this book, mainly because it was hyped by Betty J. Eadie, whose first book was impressive, (even though subsequent books were re-hashings of the original), in an article in the local newspaper.

This is a very slim book, 144 pages, and MOST of it is the biographical recounting of the author's childhood and subsequent life APART from the revelations of a remembered heavenly existence.Even with help the writing is commonplace and the information uninteresting.

"Heaven" itself is treacle and cliche; golden steps,unearthly light, pearly amorphous buildings,angel song-even clouds.The heaven the author remembers is filled with angels and new spirits; never a word of older spirits, relatives,or friends.The author says we spend months getting to know and love our birth mother before birth, never explaining negative birth experiences like abortion, subsequent abandonment, and child abuse. In fact, it's the same old "new" age theory-that we choose our parents and others in our life before we are born-nothing "new" here at all.And all of this "information" could be compressed into 10 pages of what we've heard before! A rip-off.

Summary: The Soul's Remembrance ....
Review: I read the excerpts available on line and purchased this book largely due to Betty Eadie's recommendation. I have plodded thru about 1/3 of the book and am very disappointed. Roy Mills spends most of his time lamenting his difficult child hood and we hear very little about his soul's remembrance. I would not recommend you waste your $11 to $12. Buy another of Ms Eadie's books instead. Sorry Roy. I'm sure your heart and soul mean well but your words just don't have the power of delivery that I was expecting after reading Betty's review.

Summary: A Soul's Rememberance
Review: I was hesitant at first to purchase this book because it was "slim." I wasn't sure of its contents, until I sat down and read a few pages and realized once AGAIN...that size has NOTHING to do with content! Once again, I cought myself in an earthly pre-judgement that finds all of us taking more aspirin then we should because MORE is BETTER. I have been studying NDE's (Near Death Experiences) since Raymond J. Moody's classic text came out in the late 1970's, read hundreds of personal accounts, and sifted so many books that I can't count them all, just looking for the kind of succinct, important and personal information that Roy has written so well. In fact, I found myself crying a little bit towards the end when he discussed the Hall where God gives each little soul an interview and a mission...once again, like in Conversations with God, Book 1 (page 69), there was a hint...that if you were reading this book then...umm, well, I won't spoil it for you. Roy's experience is with the classical angel (one of which even had wings), but I know that many other people have recognized them and called them "guides," "teachers," "advanced spirits..." and many other names. I am of the belief that we are presented by these beings with a shape and form that we can assoicate with and recognize. If Roy had been a Buddhist, they may have looked like a Tibetan Lama. But once again, looks are not what count...its the content and the message. The message is the same message I have read over and over and over again...it is the only true messsage that comes from God...Unconditional Love...eternal life...forgiveness...compassion. These are God-Words. I know from my heart and soul, and from more than twenty years of study...his book comes from God...the message is always the same whether the advanced beings are angels with wings, or guides or Tibetan Lamas.

His bent is affirmative of Christian theology, Jesus being the Savior, even in the face of a huge pointing angel insisting that Roy look at something. You have to read the book to get what I mean.

One question I do have, and that is, when it was time for Roy to be escorted to earth to be put into a body, his angel guide made the startling remark..."I can't believe it is him!" referring to a huge angel. We are not told who this HIM is, but I would love to know...does Roy know?

Time and again, I read books and accounts which affirm Roy's before life experience...rooms in buildings, many rooms where things are discussed and taught. Remembering Jesus' own words..."In my Father's House there are many mansions."

But I think that those who study before life/afterlife and death related experiences must know that the message contained in his book is not singular...it is one of MANY, even though we might learn of these facts by other means such as a death rememberance, or by hypnotherapy, by a personal recounting...Roy had a unique question granted to remember from birth...something few of us have the priviledge of because he is so right...If we knew, we would always make the right choices in life and fail to make those decisions which although bringing us pain and displeasure, advance our soul and accelerate our growth. That is the point of why we do not remember. but as in Conversations with God, God said in so many words...All of Life is a Re-Memberance! That is the struggle we all have to go through if we are going to make a worthwhile effort down here in our temporary bodies.

I am not going to give the whole story away to you, but this is a read well worth the effort. In any case, it will definitely help you to re-member some things you had forgotten that you should definitely know about. It's good soul food, lol! I give an A+ to Roy.

Review: In this extraordinary book, Roy Mills reminds us what we all know and seem to forget: THAT WE ARE HERE JUST TO KNOW AND EXPERIENCE WHO WE ARE. Roy is special in a way because unlike us he seems to remember remarkable details about prebirth life in heaven. When you read this book there is an instant sense that you somehow knew or thought or felt about this some other time, but you can't quite put it together. Maybe it was in a movie that you saw somw of it? or maybe a story? heck, maybe you were in heaven and like Roy remember some beautiful details that will enhance our purpose and mission (since we all have one!) in this earth. I would like to know though if when you go back to heaven you could choose to be born again in another civilization, pherhaps one that is more evolved? I wonder, but if you're a person that feels the mind-body-spirit connection this is definately your book. Read it and re-learn that life here is wonderful and every moment of every one of our lives is chosen by us....Heaven is home!

Summary: The Soul's Remembrance ....
Review: Roy tells of his experiences in the realm of the spirit world BEFORE coming to Earth as well as a scattering of ephemeral divine events he witnessed while here. At times these accounts sound almost too bizarre to be true. For example, the time he saw the clouds open up and heaven unfold right before his eyes while out in a field, and of course his thoughts while still in his mother's womb. But you know, you can't help believing this man. The way he presents his story is too simple and sweet to be a fraud, but he left many unanswered questions. I would like to see him write a sequel and elaborate more about life on the other side, e.g. spirits who have been gone for centuries...Do they return to Earth as another being or do they continue to remain there after their life on Earth is finished? Now, I'm talking about going back to the caveman! Are we reunited with old friends, loved ones, relatives when we return? What about our pets? Birds? Butterflies? Insects? Do they have a place in heaven? And what does one do all day? Do earthly things such as sports, music, jobs, marriage, food exist? Yes, you've got it, Roy, I'm one of these who likes to get down to the nitty-gritty and I'm afraid your book doesn't quite cut it. Therefore, I implore you to write another in your same simple "down home" style that I love.

Review: The Soul's Remembrance is one of the most fascinating books I've ever read. The author answers many of the important questions about where we come from and why we're here-- and he does it with such obvious sincerity that my spirit knows his words are true. I've never read anything like Soul's Remembrance, and I recommend it highly to everyone who ever wondered about what happens before we are born on this planet. Roy Mills helped me understand the underlying reasons for suffering, illness and life challenges. The chapter that talks about choosing our own life experiences before we're born was fascinating, to say the least. And his memories of heavenly wonders warmed my heart. This is, without a doubt, a must read!

Review: The Soul's Remembrance: Earth is not our home, by Roy Mills, is an account of the author's continuous memory from an existence before being born to his present day existence of life here on earth. While the vast majority of us go through a forgetting of a pre-life when we incarnate, Mr. Mills' unique vantage point addresses a spectrum of spiritual questions from life's littlest curiosities to it's deepest mysteries. However, don't look to Mr. Mills to provide a sophisticated, philosophical approach to spirituality. On the contrary, it is his down to earth sincerity that makes his account compelling, uplifting and, at times, delightful. One of the most intriguing stories in the book is the author's experience in the womb. Have you ever wondered what it is really like for the unborn child? For this account alone I highly recommend this book to any perspective parent, grandparent or friend of an expecting parent. This book may surprise you, delight you, support your faith or challenge it. It has answered many questions for me, but it has also opened new areas of inquiry. If you do buy this book you may find yourself buying another copy for a loved one.
