Already Here

A Doctor Discovers the Truth about Heaven

Already Here tells of the death of Leo Galland's son, Christopher, at age 22; the direct visual evidence Christopher showed Leo that our souls do go on; and the communications from Christopher's spirit that dramatically changed Leo's understanding of life and its meaning.In life, Christopher was a brain-damaged special-needs child who challenged everyone he knew with his unpredictable behavior and uncanny insights. After his death, he revealed to Leo the real purpose of his life, as a spiritual guide who taught others by confounding their assumptions and expectations. And he began to share with Leo a new perspective on everything from the nature of good and evil to the notion that the universe is, fundamentally, an act of love.Christopher's wisdom was revealed to Leo over the course of a year, coalescing into three themes: the Gift of the Opposite, the Gift of Presence, and the Gift of Timelessness. Leo quickly came to realize that these gifts were not for him alone: they contain ancient wisdom, held sacred in many traditions, that Chris intended him to share with others. He has written this book to do just that.Already Here presents a unique dialogue in which an analytical, scientific mind tries to comprehend truths from another plane of existence. Chris describes Heaven and Earth, spirit and matter, as unified opposites that cannot exist without each other and cannot be separated from human consciousness. The book takes its title from Christopher's final message to Leo, in which he describes Heaven as an eternal present where everyone is together, even those still living earthly lives. Lighten up, Christopher says to his father. you're already here, you know.

Absolutely moving!

What a moving book! I just finished this book and although I have so many feelings about it, my words just won’t do it justice. Just read it or listen to it yourself...it will touch you so deeply!

Deeply Insightful

I have listened to several NDE books and heard all about the other side from several different perspectives and this book touches on serious answers to spiritual questions in a way that everyone can understand. The story is heartfelt and genuine. I am so glad it was written.....amen

Very thought provoking

Very well written. I found the development of Chris’s philosophy very deep and well expressed. My only problem was that I felt that he went into too much detail in his description of incidental life events, especially in Chris’s funeral.
However once he began the after-life communication with Chris as well as paralleling his own approach to his medical practice, I was all ears. I would sure like it if he could elaborate on these things in another book!

Already Here? Yes!

Thank you, Chris, Dr. Galland and your family for reminding us of a deep truth we all knew once upon a time, we are Already Here, in love. 💛

Loved it.

Good heartfelt story and allows you to feel the depth of the writer's passion. I truly enjoyed this book.
