Brian Foster

Brian W. Foster makes his entrance into the literary world with "Blackened White", a first person account of life, love, faith, and pain. In this collection of poems, essays, and short stories, Foster offers a series of brutally honest, often humorous, and profoundly ironic writings chronicling a journey into his own human condition. Using his unique style of prose and storytelling, we observe a young man wrestling with his faith in the midst of relationships, addictions, sexuality and the unending, relentless desire to be whole. Author and Grammy award winning singer Kevin Max says Blackened White "Prods the flesh with electrodes of hyper emotion, dangerous subtlety and purposefully mannered archaism". Likening it to an "Open House flier", Foster invites the reader along the journey with him through this thought-provoking collection, which is sure to leave an indelible mark on the soul.

Blackened White

This book is a survey of what I have learned via reading books psychographed by Spiritist mediums, other mediums, observing during Spiritist medium's meetings, receiving messages from spirits and talking to other Spiritists. This book is not meant as a documented exhaustive study of all available materials from the other side. In my other books, I quote from spirit sources and explain what was told to us via Spiritist mediums. In my accumulation of fourteen books, I have written to date, I have usually adopted the process of quoting a pertinent message and then expounding and expanding upon it, with other spirit sources and my analysis. All with a bibliography and footnotes.In this book I shall take a more informal approach. It shall be more of a survey and explanation about the spirit realm I place before you. A conversation backed by years of study and research, but nevertheless, largely my own opinion, after sifting through a myriad of sources and experiences.The Spirit Realm - Spiritism has Revealed the Reality of Our Existence is divided into four sections:1.The Organization of the Universes2.The Residents of the Universes3.Spiritual Ascension4.The FutureI do not pretend that I am accurate. I believe I am directionally correct, and only that. We are so immature, spiritually young, and generally ungifted that we are incapable of real understanding of the spirit realm. But this does not stop me from offering my own thoughts of what I believe is the certainty of our existence.The true reality in which we live, die, and live again for eternity, until we no longer need to incarnate in a physical body, is far beyond what most of us can imagine. The laws of physics mostly do not apply. The concept of time and distance are altered, and the landscape itself reacts to directives from high spirits and collective thoughts. Spirits are logical constructs, who for training purposes inhabit temporary physical bodies in order to learn required and valuable lessons to alter their personalities for the better.All of this sounds beyond the realm of plausibility. But, as the spirit universes unfold, the logic becomes apparent and our place within it fully explains the chaos and inequalities of our planet and of our ups and downs of our life. With understanding and knowledge comes wisdom and tranquility. Once you start the journey of discovery of who you truly are and the real worlds you shall exist in, a doorway of light opens and begs you to step in to feel the love that surrounds you during your ascent to become a pure spirit.

Traveller Education in the Mainstream

The spirit world is talking to us ... each and every one of us. Most of us are unaware of the subtle signals and soft voices that draw us to listen to our conscience. But they are there, ever hopeful that we may discover the truth about our sojourn on this blue planet. Occasionally, some of us are drawn up and out and given detailed information and in some cases - instructions. Spirit mentors, people like us, but now on the other side - the reality - are pulling for our successful education in the campus of earth. These lucky few are given a timeout. They were summoned from the classroom and given a dose of their true state - who they are, why they are here, what they are supposed to learn, and in some cases, their specific mission. The spirit world, led by the Supreme Intelligence, the Divinity, God, or the Matrix - whatever name you wish to call it - is guiding us. Actively. Precisely. With compassion and love. The spirit realm fully realizes our new found methods of social interaction and expects those who are exposed to the revelations to share them. The twelve experiences, not only unalterably changed those who lived them, but brought back knowledge for all of us. The experiences reviewed in this book layout exciting disclosures about the spirit world and ours. We are told about heaven, the different spiritual zones around the earth; how karma is real and why we need multiple lives to learn to become a person who radiates love in all circumstances. We learn that the concept of time is different in the spirit universe and about the basic building blocks of all matter. In essence, the inquiries that you have had since you began questioning your place in this universe are answered by spirits interacting with the chosen few.

Spirits and the Spirit Universe

This book covers communications that pertain to three main themes: - Life in heaven - Lower regions - Appearances of Jesus in the spirit realm Many religions offer pictures of life after our spirit leaves our physical body. Most descriptions are hazy and prone to numerous interpretations. Spiritism, via communication from spirits who have been selected by high-level spirits, supplies us will real and actionable knowledge. Revelations in Spiritist literature presents an exciting picture of the bands of heaven and life therein. While a fuller explanation is extended about aspects of life and the organization of the regions below heaven. True knowledge of heaven and the alternatives is important for each of us. Parents attempt to motivate their children to do well in school by showing them what awaits them if they apply themselves. Mothers and fathers fully realize the need to present a case for why the child should abandon old habits from early childhood and start applying themselves to gain a better life in the future. As part of encouraging children, parents also point out the pitfalls of not bearing down - children are shown the type of life that results without dedication to learning and self-discipline. If we look at our life as a one-time event, there is no advantage in not pursing the most hedonistic lifestyle possible - just as a child would consider the pluses and minuses between studying or playing. On the other hand, Spiritism lifts us up the mountain so we can see our lives arc over many centuries. One life is just one set of courses on the school of earth. In between physical existences, we may either spend it in heaven or below. It is up to us. Spiritism brings you the knowledge of why we are here, what is our goal, and the methods to achieve graduation from this planet. Allan Kardec notified the world that doing our best to remove our baser characteristics and to learn to be more loving, fraternal, charitable, and honest with our fellow humans brings its rewards ... life in heaven. While selfishness, envy, greed, and exploiting others practically guarantee a sojourn in the lower regions - where you either adjust your thinking or wait to improve in the next physical life on earth. Allan Kardec, the Codifier of Spiritism, wasn't the first nor the last to make this point, but via messages from the spirit world, he was able to clearly layout the reasons to perform well in this life and provide clear descriptions of the locations you shall be visiting depending upon your actions. Spiritism does not tell anyone they will rot in hell if they commit horrible deeds - only that they should be prepared for bad accommodations after death, which they won't be able to check-out of until they demonstrate a lasting change of character. And their next life will entail many lessons in which they will be able to feel the brunt of what they have done to others in a previous life. In essence, karma is real and it has a purpose. That is all. You have free will. Spiritism has supplied you with information about your possible options. Your life's priorities and your decisions are yours to make.
