First published in 1971, this enduring work by Walther Hinz has become a classic of Christian spiritual teaching, with over 200,000 copies sold of its original German edition. It addresses the fundamental questions relating to the cause and meaning of life on earth. It sheds light on our existence before physical birth and on the continuation of life after death, and gives profound insights into the significance of reincarnation. The Corner Stone deals with subjects such as: the process of dying; evidence of personal survival after death; the world beyond and its spheres; the meaning and purpose of reincarnation; preparations for a new life on earth; the guardian- and guiding spirits of human beings; firsthand testimonies from the deceased of their experiences in the spiritual world.

Walther Hinz (1906-1992) was a professor at the University of Göttingen, specializing in the history of the Near East and Oriental philology. His impressive body of work, spanning decades of groundbreaking research, includes deciphering the Elamite script.
