Startling evidence of the soul's incredible journey after death. An increasing number of people believe in reincarnation. Reincarnation means leaving this body and accepting a new one, over and over again . But reincarnation does not have to remain an eternal reality. This powerful book will give you knowledge to help you break the cycle of reincarnation. The very first step in self-realization is realizing one's identity as separate from the body. "I am not this body but am spirit soul" is an essential realization for anyone who wants to transcend death and enter into the spiritual world beyond. It is not simply a matter of saying "I am not this body," but of actually realizing it. This is not as simple as it may seem at first. Although we are not these bodies but are pure consciousness, somehow or other we have become encased within the bodily dress. If we actually want the happiness and independence that transcend death, we have to establish ourselves and remain in our constitutional position as pure consciousness.

I have written a book, originally in Croatia, that has been recently translated and edited for English-speaking readers. The book’s title is On the way to the truth. It provides answers to 52 (mainly) provocative questions. The Croatian version of the book (in its paper form) has already made a few devotees and is currently being translated into Russian and Polish.
I have approached five publishers affiliated with ISKCON, but none of them was interested in publishing the book. Instead of keeping it hidden in my computer, I’d like to share it with you, hoping that it may provide a reasonable asset to spreading the glories of the sankirtana movement. It can be downloaded in Acrobat PDF format from the following link www.plavidecak.org/ostale-knjige.html
Also, you could visit www.cvs-zagreb.org and download a PDF version of my PowerPoint presentation entitled "The meaning of a vegetarian diet". I have already had some very good feedback.
A second presentation on reincarnation, currently available only in Croatian, will soon be translated into English as well. I am a disciple of H.H. Smita-Krishna Swami. Those who would like to provide feedback on my book or presentations may e-mail me at vrsabha@gmail.com
Editor's note: The presentation on vegetarianism offers some good reasons for adopting a vegetarian diet, but devotees should be aware that it includes some graphic, shocking images of abattoirs and butchery.
