Читать книгу Love Your Enemies - Gerd Steeger - Страница 4

I have known Gerd Steeger personally since 1984 when we both got to know each other while working for the same company, writing computer software in BASIC for MS-DOS computers of the time.

Gerd was very keen to learn about how to programme and was constantly calling me to ask questions on how to solve some problem. He was quick to learn, methodical in his thinking and motivated to get the work done. The art of programming computers requires you to be very precise when trying to solve a problem. You have to understand what each command does and every one has to have the correct syntax so that the software runs without bugs. If something is not working properly, you have to look carefully at every step to find out what is causing the problem and often be very creative in finding new ways to add new capabilities and functions to your software.

This highly analytical way of thinking, once learned, takes a hold of how you think in general. You quickly find yourself looking deeper into controversial news stories in order to find out what really happened. Then 9/11 happened and we both spent way too many hours investigating the reality of that tragic event, but that is not the topic of this book.

We both diversified our interests into other fields beyond programming. I took a deep interest in gadgets, photography, making videos, microscopes, alternative medicine and Dale Carnegie training whereas Gerd took an interest in finance, real estate, cryptology and spirituality. Just like Gerd had learned about programming from me, I learned more about spirituality from Gerd. We have been in constant contact with each other all these years and we both trust each other’s judgement.

Gerd has been working on this book for over 10 years, as a means of collecting what he had learned in his research of the topic. He has been just as thorough investigating this as any programmer is getting his software to work. Over 10 years, he has been writing and fine tuning his knowledge of the topic after discussing this with top experts in Germany and through his own spiritual connection to his deceased mother on the other side. I have been hearing numerous aspects of his research from Gerd over the years and that has also shaped my beliefs on the subject to a certain extent. In order to present his research, Gerd wrote this book in the form of a fictitious conversation with a mysterious figure called Raphael. This gives the story a compelling narrative and pulls the reader into a fascinating story which is also highly educational. I cannot tell you if the underlying message of the book is real, what I can tell you is that I know how much effort Gerd has put into this book and that he is convinced of what is said here and that is good enough for me.

Being British and living in Germany, I am fluent in German and have translated books into English before. Due to our long friendship, I was honoured when Gerd asked me to translate this book into English for him. With his permission and approval, this is not a simple translation, I have rewritten some parts to make them more understandable and readable to an English audience while keeping closely to his underlying story. If you are interested in finding out what is most likely to happen to you when you cross over to the other side, then you will find this book to be compelling reading.
