These scripts were communicated by Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson, a son of Edward White Benson, former Archbishop of Canterbury after his death in 1914 to his old friend, Anthony Borgia.  

Edited by Halls of Light on the High Plains of South Dakota and re-presented by TNT, the authors of “Who Am I And Why Am I Here” ( www.WhoAmIandWhyAmIHere.com ) and publishers of “Death and the Incredible Life After” and “Fear of Death Removed”, this work serves as another superb example awakening the reader to centuries old principles and concepts that are only now becoming understood.

We are now in the midst of the final triumph of spirit over matter.  Spiritual science is the study of man’s relationship to God.  The indispensable requirement for progress in spiritual science is a sincere desire for a better understanding.  The seat of knowledge is in the head but the seat of understanding is in the heart.

All sentient beings are immortal spiritual beings.  This includes Human Beings.  For the sake of accuracy and simplicity, we use a made-up word: “IS-BE” because the primary nature of an immortal being is that we live in a timeless state of “is”, and the only reason for our existence is that we decide to “be”. 

No matter how lowly our station in a society, every IS-BE deserves the respect and treatment that we ourselves would like to receive from others.  Each person on earth continues to be an IS-BE whether we are aware of the fact or not...

Give the truth to the world.  Let it be received where it will.  Many will read the messages.  Some will accept the truth, others will read through curiosity, a few will ridicule.  Yet to all is the truth given, and to all remains the power of choice.

The hope of the world in these times is in spiritualizing all form of activity---promoting understanding through love and service.  These must be the watchwords if the world is to come into lasting peace.  We are trying to influence a world that is going astray and could cause undreamed of suffering.  We are trying to overcome the thought of materialists and to bring a spiritual outlook into the earthly life.  We need the help of all on earth who can think in spiritual terms.  The great battle to be fought now is between the spiritual and the material, between idealism and carnalism.  You can help by spreading the word---we are asking that you help because the battle may be long and the victory far away.

THE spirit communicator of this book was known on earth as Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson, a son of Edward White Benson, former Archbishop of Canterbury, and he was at the height of his renown, both as preacher and author, when I first met him many years ago. 

After he had passed from this life, I many times wondered as to his welfare. Through a spirit friend I was told that he was well and prospering, and that in time I should hear from him directly. 

Such eventually proved to be the case, and there commenced a series of scripts given by him, the first of which, Life in the World Unseen, gave an account in some detail of his actual passing. He recounted how, at the close of his earthly life, he was met by a former colleague named Edwin, and taken by him to the spirit world, where his home awaited him, a counterpart of his house on earth. After a brief rest he commenced his explorations, under Edwin’s guidance, of the land of his new life. During the course of their rambles they met a young girl of great charm, named Ruth, also a newcomer to the spirit world, who joined them, and the three have been together ever since, closely associated in work and pleasure. 

In the scripts that have followed, Monsignor has dealt with an extensive variety of subjects in connection with the spirit world, not the least among them being his ‘theology’, which underwent a wholesale and drastic revision. 

His principal occupation is to meet people at their dissolution, and conduct them into the spirit world. Working with him in this are his friends, Edwin and Ruth. 

It has been my privilege and pleasure to act all along as his amanuensis for recording the scripts. Through other sources of communication we have had literally hundreds of for- gatherings, where he has brought with him a goodly company of spirit friends. 

In the present script, recorded by me in 1951, Monsignor recounts how Ruth and he, but without Edwin on this occasion, embarked upon one of their visits to earth for ‘escort duty’, in this instance to a young lad of eighteen years. Instead, however, of passing him into the care of other hands, as usually takes place, they invite him to stay with them in their home (where he first awakens to his new life), and thereafter, when fully recovered, they set out upon ‘escort duty’ of another kind: through the realms in which they live, to see the wonders and meet some of the people.
