Synopsis

Following her near-death experience as shared in the New York Times bestseller Dying to Be Me, Anita Moorjani knows well the truths that exist beyond common knowledge and acceptance. The clarity she has gained has led her to further understand who she was born to be.

Part of that truth has involved contemplating the cultural myths infused into our everyday lives. Passed down from generation to generation, these myths are pervasive and influential. From the belief we reap what we sow to the idea we must always be positive, cultural myths are often accepted as truths without questioning. Moorjani asserts it is now time for questioning in order to help us reach our fully informed, authentic selves.

Moorjani explores these common myths in their real-world existence while presenting examples from her own life that reveal the falsehoods beneath the surface. By freeing ourselves from these ubiquitous expectations, we can break open an honest pathway to life as it was meant to be lived.

About The Author

Anita Moorjani is the New York Times best-selling author of Dying to Be Me (published by Hay House in 2012), an account of her nearly four-year battle with cancer that culminated in a fascinating and moving near-death experience in 2006, which vastly changed her perspective on life. The book, which reached the bestseller list within two weeks of its release and remained there for nine weeks, has since been translated into more than 45 languages and sold more than one million copies worldwide. In February 2015, Scott Free Productions (owned by internationally acclaimed Hollywood producer Ridley Scott) optioned the rights to make Dying to Be Me into a full-length feature film. Now completely cancer-free, Anita travels the globe, giving talks and workshops as well as speaking at conferences and special events to share the profound insights she gained while in the other realm. Anita was born in Singapore of Indian parents. When she was two years old, her family moved to Hong Kong. She is multilingual and has spoken English, Cantonese, and an Indian dialect simultaneously from an early age, later learning French. Anita and her husband Danny recently moved from Hong Kong to the U.S. Website:www.anitamoorjani.com

Goodreads review by Heidi on June 03, 2016

I was so excited to read this. Moorjani's first book, Dying to Be Me, was one of the first accounts of near death experience that I read. In it, she details how she was on her death bed, experienced the world beyond, and then came back to fulfill her life's purpose. When she came back, the tumors in......more

Goodreads review by Brian on February 08, 2023

The book’s title got me curious, because I’m interested in all the requirements people believe they must meet to get a good life after death. And this title seemed to suggest an opposite goal. Clearly, Moorjani has her beliefs about life and death, with her own experiences behind those. But I don’t......more

Goodreads review by Dewin on February 06, 2017

As with her previous book, What If This is Heaven? offers a new and, I feel, more forgiving view of living a peaceful and aware life. It is well organized into some of the major myths that our society imposes on us, mostly subconsciously, and how our lives could be should we choose to consciously st......more


Quotes

“So many people have such a fear of death that they are afraid to live life to its fullest measure. Anita Moorjani does a brilliant job of demystifying both life and death by first breaking the spell of our conditioned beliefs and then giving us the practical tools to be reborn in the same life. This book will free your soul and teach you that you don’t have to die to go to heaven.”
— Dr. Joe DispenzaNew York Times best-selling author of You Are the Placebo

“The richest literature on near-death experiences moves beyond mere descriptions of the afterlife. The greatest lessons concern how to live this life to the fullest. In her newest book, What If This Is Heaven?, Anita Moorjani addresses deeply held misconceptions in our modern global culture. Her evolving wisdom empowers readers toward much greater health and harmony: to truly love oneself in the face of life’s challenges is integral to every human’s fulfillment here on earth.”
