In the 21st century, with the advent of the internet, we now have access to thousands of accounts of near-death experiences across many cultures, from Plato’s time more than 2,300 years ago to the present day.
In the near-death or clinically dead state, many report a euphoria of love that continues throughout their lives—their fear of death diminished or eliminated—their lives enriched forever.
Joe Geraci was a young man in his thirties, a former police officer and educator, when a hemorrhage came close to ending his physical life. What followed was physical agony and pain coupled with the bliss and joy of the eternal state.
In Eternity Revisited, the author captures the events leading up to his clinical death and the trauma, confusion and frustration that followed. Post-NDE, he recounts a life feeling immersed in love and perfection while living in an imperfect world—a dichotomy—a foot in two worlds. He expresses his feelings and wisdom through poetry, which NDE researcher, Kenneth Ring called, “Poems of exile, born when Joe died.”
It’s a memoir of tragedy, pain, wisdom, and hope.
With a Foreword by Kenneth Ring.
“Eternity Revisited is a riveting personal account of Joe Geraci’s encounter with eternity when he died, and how it transformed his life. Th is insightful look at what happens at death is filled with wisdom and humor; but it is less about death than about love, which transcends both life and death. This book will provide comfort to those seeking the meaning of life, and guidance as to living a life of love even in the face of hardships.”

Dr. Geraci’s book is a candid, caring, insightful, and vivid look at the subject which sooner or later fascinates and/or frightens everyone: death. His observations, descriptions and conclusions linger in your mind, percolating provokingly long after you read the words on the page. And that my friends, is the sign of a great book.

Dr. Geraci has written an amazing book, Eternity Revisited: Messages from my Near Death Experience. Eventually we are all going to die. How great it is to be able to read one man’s beautifully written reflections on his journey at death. And how great it is that he returned and chose to share that journey with us.
