“ This is Supernatural Africa. We have seers, mystics and magicians, many in touch with ancient knowledge systems and the mysteries of death and beyond.”

THE OTHER SIDE
JOURNEYS INTO MYSTICISM, MAGIC AND NEAR DEATH
What happens when we die? How are some people able to see or communicate with spiritual worlds beyond our own? Can they offer answers to some of our most burning questions about life and death?
Sarah Bullen delves into the mysteries of life after death through her own near-death experience and riveting interviews with individuals from South Africa and beyond. The book features stories of people who have crossed to the ‘other side’ or can communicate with it, including a psychic rabbi, a spiritual teacher who survived near-death experiences, and shamans. Bullen offers a fresh perspective on the spiritual realms and ancient knowledge systems.
THE OTHER SIDE
Meet and learn from a man who woke up on a stretcher on the way to the morgue, a spiritual teacher who survived two near-death experiences on an operating table, a psychic rabbi, an influencer who communicates with the departed, a former corporate executive-turned-sangoma who runs a traditional clinic, and shamans and neo-shamans from across the continent. With her keen observation skills and insights gleaned from her own experience, Bullen offers a fresh way of looking at the world.
“We are lucky, and the world is lucky, that African spiritual ways are still alive. It's not gone like some other cultures, and that is why the world is interested in what has held us together, and how we live in union with the natural world and the world of ancestors. ”
