Buddhism has deepened its presence in the West. Therapists, scholars and scientists have had more contact with its teachings, and as a result, Buddhist teachings and practices are becoming integrated with those of Western psychology. This collection of readings presents views on this integration.

This, the second book in the Beyond Trilogy, expands on John and Katies experiences and photographs of the orb phenomena covered in their first book. It reveals astounding new photographs and opens up exciting new questions about the whole nature of paranormal phenomena in general. John and Katies photographs of orbs, angels and other apparitions have brought them into worldwide contact with other experiencers and researchers: it is from this basis that they now take a major step beyond the visible photographable phenomena, and current New Age notions about orbs, to reveal new insights about the paranormal. Could it be that orbs are the indicators of a wider, beyond reality? Is the symbology of orbs as images of oneness, drawing our attention to the most important orb of all: the orb of Earth on which we all live? Their ongoing photographs, personal experiences, and the amazing synchronistic events they found themselves part of reveal a conscious, purposeful phenomena that can interact with us as individuals, whoever and wherever we are. This inevitably leads to a spiritual perspective that crosses all religious and cultural boundaries, helping us to see that this one blue orb of Earth on which we all live, is greater than all that divides us! Orbs & Beyond is the vital visual link between Beyond Photography, and the forthcoming Beyond Reality.
