Summary: Learn how to live each day to the best of your ability
Review: Facing a terminal illness myself, I turned to this book as a solace in the hopes it would help me to deal with my own mortality. What I found instead was a vivid and inspirational account showing me how to live out my life in a more positive and meaningful way. There is more positive energy in this book than any other book I have read on the subject. Death is inevitable and we all must come to terms with this reality in our own way; life is what you make of it each day and this books turns living into a quest for growth and outreach that makes me look forward to each and every day

Summary: Reading this will change the way you view death.
Review: A warm and readable book, the kind you don't want to put down once you start. A nice short read, for those with little time on their hands. (Great for on the Metro or bus!) It left a permanent impression on the way I view death. Betty describes in detail the events before, during, and after her near-death experience. You will never look at the "what happens when we die" question the same again. It's inspirational---a must-read for those who'd like to read a compact account of the near-death experience. It leaves you feeling that you really don't have to be afraid of death after all

Summary: Very inspiring and spiritually fulfilling
Review: As I read through the lines of Betty J. Eadie's NDE account,
I realized how truly special we are. That the idea of death is not the end, not painful; is something very comforting to
learn. Now I am a firm believer that we, human beings, are
all important, all souls with a mission in life and that our time on earth is a very important one as well.

Summary: An inspirational journey that shook me to the core!
Review: Reading Embraced By The Light was like taking a journey back into childhood -- to the purity and simplicity of life as it should really be lived. The beauty and awe of Ms. Eadie's near-death experience, the lessons she took back with her and her determination to communicate what she learned are truly unforgettable. Read Embraced By Light and be shaken by the "rightness" of life-lessons you thought you'd forgotten forever

Summary: Cashing in on Grief?
Review: Many people who read this book have it handed to them after the death of a loved one. For me it was the passing of my wife's father. She read it and found it a great comfort so she asked me to read it too. I was skeptical but for her sake, I read it. I am a slow reader but this thing is so full of fluff that I got through it in two hours. Religion is a great comfort to people in times of personal grief and I realize that this book has helped many to cope with death. But religion is also, along with politics, one of the few career fields where you can turn bull---- into money. It is plainly obvious that this whole thing was made up.She never says why she was in the hospital. What caused the near death experience? Explaining this might have given the story a little more credibility, but for the author, none of this was relevant. The only reason for writing the book was to tell the miraculous story. Most NDEs last only a few minutes. This one was long enough for a feature-length film, and she has total recall of every little detail. How could she have survived such a lengthy NDE? She crammed a lot of material into the four or five minutes that a person can survive such an ordeal. Pardon me for being so skeptical of a book that clearly has helped so many people in their darkest hour. Maybe the author was sincerely trying to use her story-telling skills to help people cope with death. But on the other hand, if there is a heaven, and if she did write this to cash in on the grief of others, she'll need a lot more than a good line of bull---- when she meets her maker for real.

Summary: Why the Near Death Experience is true
Review: I have read Betty's book and it changed my life. I approached this book from a totally atheistic point of view. Before that I had read "saved by the light" by Dannion Brinkly and that book perked my interest in the subject but I was very skeptical. But after reading 4 more books on the near death experience by doctors, researchers, nurses, and the experiencers them selves, I am totally convinced that this is a true phenomena. Those Christians who want to criticize Betty. Are following the Bible too strictly. They are no different than the Pharisees. Or the other Jews who said Jesus was not the messiah. You must keep an open mind and not fear new and different things. You must look into your heart for the truth. You can use material books like the Bible as a guide but only you can know god. Is Betty or the other experiencers any different than the Christians of old who had mystical experiences. Why can't one have these kinds of experiences now? And if god is ready to reveal a new truth to us how will we recognize it if we are closed to everything that is different than our past knowledge. You must have an open mind as well as a skeptical one. Stop blindly following the text of the bible or any book, it's not like you really fully understand it's meaning anyway. I have discovered that my lack of an open mind has been my biggest blockage to the truth. Fear is the enemy, love is our savior. That's all there is to it. Anyway, I Highly recommend the book. END

Summary: Definately New Age Garbage
Review: Makes the reader think it is a Jesus related book but it really is a New Age idea of near death experience contrary to God's word. Don't buy it.
