Advice to a Young Man Afraid of Death: Finding God in the Graveyard John White

This mini-book is a chapter from my forthcoming book Enlightenment 101: A Guide to God-Realization and Higher Human Culture. It looks at the experience of enlightenment for the individual and the race. Its subtitle is ?Practical Spirituality and Applied Wisdom for Everyday Life.? This chapter-letter responded to a 21-year-old college student who wrote to me in a desperate state. He expressed an "unshakable fear of death and absence of God" which left him "totally miserable and confused" because all his ideas about God, life and the universe were in profound doubt. I?ve identified him only by the first letter in his name to preserve his privacy.
