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, who has had a life-altering near-death experience herself, explores these mysteries as she gathers riveting stories of people from South Africa and beyond – people who have crossed to the 'other side' or those who can contact it. This book offers original interviews with a fascinating collection of teachers with special abilities, individuals who have gone through near-death experiences and those who can communicate across worlds using mediumship, gifts, trance and plants.
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.

October 6, 2024What happens when we die?
When I read Sarah Bullen's last book, Love and Above (2022) (the story of her husband discovering he had a brain tumour, then pursuing a shamanic path to fight the cancer. While she fell into a deathly coma herself at the same time as him) I had a feeling that Sarah hadn't told us the whole story. I loved the book, but it left me wanting more. I felt like she'd only touched on her own story.
And now with The other side, by Sarah Bullen, we get so much more of her own remarkable story of dying and returning. We get other stories of near death experiences and out of body experiences too. And the similarities and differences in these stories from around the world.
The man who woke up on a stretcher on the way to the morgue.
The psychic rabbi.
The spiritual teacher who survived two near death experiences on the operating table.
Taz, the psychic who sees dead people (IRL or over Zoom).
This book also delves into trips and journeys and shamanism, and the plants and medicines that take you there.
If death and journeys and trips and spirits and theology, religion and ancestors and meaning interests you, then this book will interest you.
