About the Author
Anton GroszAnton Grosz has a PhD from the California Institute of Integral Studies in the Evolution of Human Consciousness and is a practitioner of phenomenology – the science of experiential reality. He is an ordained Interfaith Minister, a retired Hospice Chaplain, and a certified Home Care Provider. Born into a profoundly atheistic family, he denied anything religious for the first half of his life. In 1978, at the age of 37, he discovered spirituality through a Near Death Experience, going through a tunnel into the light and experiencing a reality different and greater than anything he had ever thought possible.

Since then, he has devoted his life to studying different spiritual paths, leading meditation practice, and helping those at the end of life. He has also journaled and written about his numerous experiences and insights. His first book, Letters to a Dying Friend: What Comes Next, (Quest, 1989) has an introduction by the Dalai Lama, and his second book, How Do I Live When I Know I’m Going To Die?, (FMA Books, 2001), was distributed through the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization.

Anton and his wife of 61 years, Phyllis, recently moved from San Francisco to Newark, Delaware. They have two adult children and two grandchildren.
