Vistas: a Theologian in Past-life Therapy Paul Giurlanda

In this memoir, the author describes his transition from the role of Catholic theologian to that of a participant in a very different tradition. After a brief account of his struggles as a gay youth with the frustrated desire to "only connect," and his entry into Roman Catholic religious life, we are quickly brought to the recent past, as the author finds himself in a moment of near-despair.  More or less on a whim, he tries a past-life regression, after which he's introduced to a world quite different from the one he knew.
