Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Michael Katz' Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians, a Book Review

By Sten Videmark

Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians stands apart from any other crystal healing book on the market in many respects. First of all, whereas other crystal healing books usually contain so called 'channeled' information from the spirit world, none of them so directly profess it the way this book does.

Although this may be a tad much for orthodox medical practitioners, author Michael Katz none-the-less believes this young science, which he refers to as Gemstone Energy Medicine, will continue to grow and become increasingly mainstream.

And he is not alone in that belief. Many top athletes testify to the power of the gemstones as described in this book, including Mark Foster, British Olympic Swimmer, Glen Christiansen, Swedish Olympic Medalist, Tanner Eriksen, Pitcher, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Art Dilworth, Triathlete, Professional and Olympic Trainer.

Another well-known celebrity says, "Some inner voice told me to read this book. Thank you, inner voice. What a remarkable study." Those are the words of Larry King, quoted in the 1997 edition of this book.

In Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians, the text consists exclusively of the direct teachings and wisdom of the spirit beings that go by the name of the Gemstone Guardians. Each Gemstone Guardian, twenty-nine in all, shares in-depth information about the qualities of the particular gemstone that they are in charge of.

This book is so masterfully composed that it reads like a beautiful novel... one so mesmerizing that it's hard to put down once you've begun to read it. I've heard of no other book inspiring so many novices to become interested in crystal healing.

It should be noted that Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians is not a reference book on crystals. It is an inspirational story with in-depth information about a select few of the most powerful healing gemstones and crystals available on the market today. If you are looking for a reference book, there are better choices. If you're ready to be set on fire about gemstones, then Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians is the book for you.

As a perpetual best-seller on crystal healing, Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians has seen several re-prints over the years, some under different names. It was originally published as Gifts of the Gemstone Guardians, and the 1997 edition was titled Gemisphere Luminary.

Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians contains information on Quarts, Lavender Quartz, Aventurine, Emerald, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Rhodochrosite, Amethyst, Purple Rainbow Fluorite, Blue Sapphire, Indigo (crystalline form of Sodalite), Carnelian, Citrine, Aquamarine, Green Tourmaline, Pink Tourmaline, Sodalite, Leopardskin Jasper, Poppy Jasper, Bloodstone, Ivorite, Opalite, Riverstone, Rhodonite, Malachite, Lapis Lazuli, Black Onyx, Mother of Pearl and Pearl.
