108 Documented Ascensions: Cross-Cultural Testimonies of Transcendence

By Laing Z. Matthews

What if ascension is real - and has happened all around the world, across centuries, cultures, and faiths?

108 Documented Ascensions gathers the testimonies of mystics, sages, saints, and seers who crossed the threshold between life and light - not as myth, but as deeply witnessed transformation. Drawing from sacred texts, hagiographies, historical records, and oral tradition, this groundbreaking volume offers a global map of transcendence: from Enoch's walk with God to Teresa of vila's union in light, from Tibetan rainbow body adepts to Daoist hermits who vanished into mist.

Each of the 108 figures is presented in a six-part format: life narrative, method of ascent, signs and trials, spiritual meaning, cross-cultural parallels, and a reflective practice with invocation. Organized into nine pathways - including divine grace, dream initiation, inner alchemy, ritual invocation, and death-return - the book bridges ancient testimony with modern consciousness studies.

Whether you're a mystic, meditator, scholar, or seeker, this book offers more than biography. It is a mirror of possibility - and an invitation to your own ascent.
