The HOPE Papers

The HOPE Papers If you are suffering from despair about the state of the world, please download this document. It’s all too easy to get depressed by what we see on the news and what we read about on social media. But that is emphatically not the full story. This paper began to take shape as I was researching and preparing for talks on the subject “Cultivating a Spirit of Hope.” Currently it is a 20-page downloadable document listing really wonderful and inspirational things going on right now all over the world. And, believe it or not, it’s just the tip of a really amazing iceberg. This document will continue to grow as I uncover more and more acts of compassion, ingenuity, and just all-around good news. It’s out there; it just takes a little bit of motivation to find it, intention to focus on it. I believe we absolutely need Hope in order to believe that the future we want is possible. May The HOPE Papers lift your spirits and fortify you for the very important task of co-creating the beautiful world we all want. Please folks, dream big!

It may be a balm to your weary soul. The author, a former hospice chaplain immersed in the care of both parents, experienced three years filled with the deaths of loved ones.

This book is sad and beautiful, uplifting and thought-provoking all at once. Most of all, this book helps us remember that we are never alone and that life and love continue after death.

Pilgrimage through Native Lands: A White Woman's Journey of Discovery and Remembrance

After receiving an unmistakable intuitive call, the author embarked upon a pilgrimage in 2018. Traditional pilgrimages entail traveling to one specific holy destination. Cynthia Greb’s journey would be different; she would be visiting several sacred and meaningful places in northern California, southern Oregon, and northwestern Montana. Where there was nature’s beauty, she would stop to rest and reflect. Where there were places of pain and suffering, she would stop to offer prayer.

Having only limited funds, she decided to simply travel until she ran out of money. The important thing was to answer Spirit’s call. The important thing was to say “Yes!”

Along the way she was surprised to have several serendipitous encounters with native places, people, and spirits. This book focuses on those experiences.

Pilgrimage through Native Lands: A White Woman’s Journey of Discovery and Remembrance

Walk in Beauty: Seeing Our Planet through the Eyes of Love, by Cynthia Greb

This book is a photographic essay which celebrates the glory of the natural world. It was created at the urging of several friends who marvel at the beauty I have been blessed to witness these past several years. Interspersed throughout are poetic snippets of spiritual encouragement. The reader is encouraged to celebrate, be in gratitude, rest, and be at peace. Walk in Beauty is ideal as a gift for a friend or oneself.

DOA: Death, Oneness, and the Afterlife, by Cynthia Greb

This book was inspired by a talk I gave in March 2016 called “Death, Dreams, and the Afterlife.” It was born from my experiences with the death of both parents, plus several friends, relatives, and clients over the course of just a few years. As I was processing all this death, I found that my interest in the afterlife grew tremendously. I began reading everything I could get my hands on, I collected stories from friends and acquaintances and I even met with a couple mediums for the first time ever. The result of all this is a melange of real-life experience with one of life’s greatest transitions, many mystical experiences and sacred dreams after loved ones have left this plane, and information about how death is handled in other traditions around the world. This compelling book will, no doubt, pique your own curiosity about the age-old frontier of death and the afterlife.

If you have personally experienced some profound mystical encounter or sacred dream during or after the dying process of a close friend or relative, I would love to hear about it! I believe these experiences help us all to lose our fear of death and to realize that we are all connected. Death can never overpower love!
