The Hand

A Young Man's Search for Eternity's Gate

By: Brett Stephan Bass

Here we stand, you and I, gazing with wonderment at the heavens not realizing the breadth and depth of what we humans call “reality,” defined by our dictionaries as “fidelity to nature.” As a species, Homo sapiens, in Latin “wise person,” has been the end result…so far…of a grand evolutionary experiment that has taken 4.54 billion years since the earth formed and our hominin species arrived 100,000-200,000 years ago, migrating from the Rift Valley of Africa, approximately 60,000 years ago, to populate the earth. So, why do you and I exist? Is existence, or conscious awareness, ephemeral; disposed of in a mere blink of a cosmic eye like a newspaper read and then discarded? Or rather, does human consciousness surrender its fleshy tomb to continue on a journey to a dimension housing a continuum beyond the current understanding of man? Physicists and astronomers continue a slow and deliberate trek to attempt to unmask the composition and complexion of “reality.” In their quest to reconcile Einstein’s general relativity, the world we live in, with the quantum world, the subatomic building blocks which make life possible, scientists have been met with seemingly insurmountable obstacles defying attempts to untangle the grand enigma of existence in order to construct a “Theory of Everything.” Adding to the confusion, religious dogma desperately clings to tales of fiction intent on impeding man’s search for the “truth.” Emerson Alexander Weiss, in The Hand, admonishes us “not to walk through life with a blindfold shielding us from the illuminating light of enlightenment!” His quest to understand himself, and to unravel the mysteries of the universe, plots a course that is intended for Homo sapiens to contemplate in earnest in a quest to find eternity’s gate!

Wind Chimes

By: Brett Stephan Bass

The Puritans, who called themselves "the Godly," left England for a nineweek voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to a land that offered new beginnings. During the "Great Migration," 1630-1640, more than 20,000 would arrive in Colonial New England seeking to establish communities that strictly applied their version of civil law and their interpretation of God's commandments. Nathaniel Darling, a farmer, and John Wilmont, a humble toolmaker, were third generation New England Puritans, each having a wife and children, and both living in Salem Village, Massachusetts. Fate would test their courage and their wisdom and would unexpectedly force them to come to grips with the madness that had infected their patch of earth in 1692, when "the Godly" became "the Ungodly" and accusations of witchcraft and the fear and stench of death infected their community like an outbreak of deadly smallpox. The outcome of their entangled and unfinished stories would live for three centuries and would not find resolution and redemption until 300 years later in the small towns of Mattituck, Long Island, New York, and Salem, Massachusetts. With the help of Dr. Emanuel Kanter, a psychiatrist, and Cynthia Copely, a psychic, the answer would at last be found and a soulful journey would find its ending. BRETT STEPHAN BASS is an attorney-at-law who began his professional career specializing in corporate litigation and appellate work. Leaving an active legal practice to become a business entrepreneur, he retired at age 50 to study science, art, literature, religion, and philosophy, to travel the world with his wife, Rosalind, to hone his skills as a photographer, and to write extensively about a variety of life experiences. He is the author of Eulogy and he and his wife reside just outside of New York City.

The Hand

A Young Man Discovers What Lies Beyond Eternity's Gate (Part II)

By: Lynn Van Praagh-Gratton,Brett Stephan Bass

Etched into man’s understanding of the creation of life is the foreboding prospect of death… surrendering one’s mortal flesh to the earth to decay for eternity. But is this apprehension misplaced? Yes! Why? Because it seems that human consciousness survives, once a heart no longer beats, to live on in a place that the co-authors have come to call Beyond the Beyond. There are a selective few who have been blessed with the “gift” of being able to receive the frequencies and words of those passing through Eternity’s Gate to dwell Beyond the Beyond. And Lynn Van Praagh-Gratton, a nationally-renowned psychic-medium, is one such person; the beneficiary of a “gift” inherited from her maternal familial line…great-aunt, grandmother, and mother—and now passed on to her son, Dennis Jr. In the architecture of their collaboration, Lynn and Brett have been inspired by a message conveyed two thousand years ago by Lucius Annaeus Seneca, a Roman philosopher and statesman, who wrote: The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity. And, through a combination of two books with an interwoven narrative, they seek to offer understanding, healing, and hope to those who have “momentarily” lost touch with loved ones. In The Hand (Part I)…A Young Man’s Search for Eternity’s Gate, Brett Stephan Bass introduces us to Emerson Alexander Weiss who interrupts a promising career as a theoretical physicist to fi nd a deeper spiritual meaning in life that dispenses with conventional teachings of science, religion, and philosophy. In The Hand (Part II)…A Young Man Discovers What Lies Beyond Eternity’s Gate, the co-authors advance meaning to the phrase “Life After Death” in order to bring hope to those despairing of optimism...wisdom to wipe away confounding confusion…and healing love to those grieving the loss of one no longer present. Although the co-authors, at times, employ elements of a fictional sequence of events, the body of both works lies in personal experiences and reflective beliefs designed to leave in the reader’s mind that: (1) There is a unifying “oneness” in the composition of the universe fed by the vitality of “light and love”; (2) Death is an illusion fed by misguided fear; (3) Passing through Eternity’s Gate is a beginning and not an ending; and (4) Life on Earth is intended to prepare us all to live in a domain presently hidden from view called Beyond the Beyond where we will be embraced by the Source, the universal repository of all-knowing and all-loving.

Eulogy

By: Brett Stephan Bass

Diana and Hal Thornton fell in love in an interval of a heartbeat and lived a life so full that it seemed to escape the measurement of time. Together, they... celebrated the romance of love, embraced the gift of family, enriched the lives of strangers, circumnavigated the globe, extracted understanding from science, drew inspiration from Renaissance paintings, trespassed into the metaphysical world, welcomed hope, vanquished fear, and searched for the most important treasure hidden from the vision of the human eye- the immortality of two souls. Diana and Hal Thornton lived a blessed life, never knowing that destiny had entwined them in her silken threads for a greater purpose. They thought that they were the masters of their dreams, but they were not! It was beyond the realm of man where their fate was decided and true wisdom resided. Venice, a city of desire on a carpet of water, mysteriously beckoned to Diana and Hal, leading them to a doorway that promised a life of endless tomorrows. Could they enter? Would they enter? The answer resided with their niece, Aubrey Winston-Bennett, and their nephew, Glenn Winston, who were chosen to bring them the key that might unlatch the door. BRETT STEPHAN BASS is an attorney-at-law who began his professional career specializing in corporate litigation and appellate work. Leaving an active legal practice to become a business entrepreneur, he retired at age 50 to study science, art, literature, religion, and philosophy, to travel the world with his wife Rosalind, to hone his skills as a photographer, and to write extensively about a variety of life experiences.

Redemption

By: Brett Stephan Bass

REINCARNATION...a discernible truth borne of a spirituality that transcends mysticism? There have been countless documented accounts of very young children reliving past life experiences which, when retraced through an examination of the historical records, have resulted in verification of memories recalled. An "old soul" occupying the womb of an expectant mother has been said to have arrived after birth with conflicted emotions. There are nightmares that shatter the tranquility of the home's quietude. There are fears that border on the unusual and the unnatural. There are reminiscences that emerge which consistently are tied to the distant past...usually married to a tragic and, oft-times, violent ending to life. Psychiatrist Ian Pretyman Stevenson, (born, October 31, 1918), from the University of Virginia, has investigated many reports of young children who claim to remember having had past lives. He conducted more than 2,500 case studies over a period of 40 years and published 12 books. His conclusion...past life memories are real! Brandon Lawrence Miller arrived to the loving embrace of his excited parents with a tortured psyche. Incessant crying, night terrors, and phobias would haunt young Brandon until he could confront a stalking demon returning from another lifetime. How could he liberate his tormented eternal soul? Only one way...through REDEMPTION! BRETT STEPHAN BASS is an attorney-at-law who began his professional career specializing in corporate litigation and appellate work. Leaving an active legal practice to become a business entrepreneur, he retired at age 50 to study science, art, literature, religion, and philosophy, to travel the world with his wife, Rosalind, to hone his skills as a photographer, and to write extensively about a variety of life experiences. He and his wife reside just outside of New York City.
