The Journey with Death deals with the problem of Death as well as the problem of Life. Avoiding the traditional approach to Death which consists of a description of the After-Death condition, the author has tried to find a solution for the problems of Survival and Reincarnation, of Communication with the dead and of the Interval between two lives. He has also dealt with the problem of Separation which Death poses to ordinary men and women. The author would prefer to call the so-called Dead as only the Departed with whom one can establish links of communication, through a wilful journey into the realms of Consciousness.

The book is refreshingly original in its content and presentation. As Miss Joy Mills, the International Vice-President of the Theosophical Society, says in her Foreword: "We most heartily commend this small book as rich in understanding, to all who seek to probe the mystery of Death, a mystery which is also the profound mystery of life itself."

About the Author

Rohit Mehta was born in 1908 and was educated at Bombay, Surat and Ahmedabad. Mehta was a founder of the Congress Socialist group which came into existence in 1934, and which later on become the Socialist Party of India.

Mr. Mehta was author of a large number of books, viz., the call of the Upanishads, The Fullness of the Void, J. Krishnamurti and Sant Kabir, J.
