I assembled the stories inside Invitations From Beyond to help me understand what connects them. They are nonfiction, except for Kalachakra, which is semi-autobiographical. Each tale involves unexpected and seemingly unexplainable things that happened throughout my life. At an early age, I started thinking about why these things were happening to me and wondering if they could be linked. But it wasn't until later that I began to grasp a more significant story unfolding. This realization came after the number of unexplainable events increased, and I started learning methods to explore and understand their meaning more deeply.
