Life Beyond Drama encourages us to do the road less travelled and dive into the depths of our life stories, myths, and dramas in order to understand where these things come from, why we engage with negative energy-draining dramas, how we engage in these dramas, and what they actually look like. Looking into any arena in life, every day we can all admit that drama is everywhere. We have heard so much about our thirst for healing, wholeness, and living the life we have always been meant to live. Dramas prevent us from getting to these places. This book offers us tools via a path of self-reflection in everyday life, which can lead us to a life beyond drama, where endless potential and possibilities await.

Alice Faye's sweet demeanor, sultry glances, and velvety voice were her signatures. Her haunting rendition of “You'll Never Know” has never been surpassed by any other singer. Fans adored her in such films as Alexander's Ragtime Band, Rose of Washington Square, Tin Pan Alley, Week-End in Havana, and Hello, Frisco, Hello. In the 1930s and 1940s she reigned as queen of 20th Century Fox musicals. She co-starred with such legends as Shirley Temple, Tyrone Power, Carmen Miranda, and Don Ameche and was voted the number-one box-office attraction of 1940, placing ahead of Bette Davis and Myrna Loy. To a select cult, she remains a beloved star. In 1945 at the pinnacle of her career she chose to walk out on her Fox contract. This remarkable episode is unlike any other in the heyday of the big-studio system. Her daring departure from films left Fox mogul Darryl F. Zanuck and the rest of the movie industry flabbergasted. For years she had skirmished with him over her roles, her health, and her private life. His heavy-handed film editing of her fine work in Otto Preminger's drama Fallen Angel, a role she had fought for, relegated Faye to the shadows so that Zanuck could showcase the younger Linda Darnell. After leaving Fox, Faye (1915–1998) devoted herself to her marriage to radio star Phil Harris, to motherhood, and to a second career on radio in the Phil Harris–Alice Faye Show, broadcast for eight years. She happily gave up films in favor of the independence and self-esteem that she discovered in private life. She willingly freed herself of the “star-treatment” that debilitated so many of her contemporaries. In the 1980s she emerged as a spokeswoman for Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, touring America to encourage senior citizens to make their lives more meaningful and vital. Before Betty Grable, before Marilyn Monroe—Alice Faye was first in the lineup of 20th Century Fox blondes. This book captures her special essence, her work in film, radio, and popular music, and indeed her graceful survival beyond the silver screen.

YOU CANNOT DIE Everyone knows that there are two certainties in life: death and taxes. So then, why is the fear of death put into the minds of people? Why does death occur? Is it really the ‘end’ of everything, or is there a world beyond the mystical veil that we call death? You will find the answers to all these questions in Beyond Life. This book consists of a series of easy to follow conversations on the subjects of Death, and Life after Death. These are set out in an imaginary storyline between various seekers and Sirshree Tejparkhi, the eminent Founder of the Tej Gyan Foundation. Sirshree says that, “If knowledge about death and life after death makes your present life positive and beautiful, and if understanding it brings about a positive changes in your life, then you have understood the message correctly.” Beyond Life is not just for clearing doubts; it is also about changing your life completely by bringing about a total transformation – a life where you understand that you cannot truly ‘die’.
