This chapter #3 is comprised of 90 questions and answers.

1	    After the change called death takes place, do we meet
  	those gone before? — or does life continue in thought only
 3	as in a dream? 

  	    Man is not annihilated, nor does he lose his identity,
  	by passing through the belief called death. After the
 6	momentary belief of dying passes from mortal mind, this
  	mind is still in a conscious state of existence; and the in-
  	dividual has but passed through a moment of extreme
 9	mortal fear, to awaken with thoughts, and being, as
  	material as before. Science and Health clearly states
  	that spiritualization of thought is not attained by the death
12	of the body, but by a conscious union with God. When
  	we shall have passed the ordeal called death, or destroyed
  	this last enemy, and shall have come upon the same plane
15	of conscious existence with those gone before, then we
  	shall be able to communicate with and to recognize them. 
  	    If, before the change whereby we meet the dear de-
18	parted, our life-work proves to have been well done, we
  	shall not have to repeat it; but our joys and means of ad-
  	vancing will be proportionately increased. 
21	    The difference between a belief of material existence
  	and the spiritual fact of Life is, that the former is a dream
  	and unreal, while the latter is real and eternal. Only
24	as we understand God, and learn that good, not evil,
  	lives and is immortal, that immortality exists only in
  	spiritual perfection, shall we drop our false sense... of Life
27	in sin or sense material, and recognize a better state of
  	existence.
