A Mere Grain of Sand
- A Reader's View

A friend recommended me to read the book. I haven't read a 'spiritual' book for a number of years, having been disillusioned by the plethora of publications on 'soul re-birthing', 'past life therapies' and various new age ideas that for me, just did not ring true.

I read 'A Mere Grain of Sand' in a very short time, for it was such a fascinating book, that I just couldn't put it down, not wishing to miss anything, and I was sorry when I had reached the final page because I wanted to know more. I just wish the book had been available thirty years ago when I started my own personal spiritual quest.

It is very readable. A simple yet compelling narrative of Raymond and Gillian Brown, obviously two ordinary people extraordinarily dedicated and devoted to their beliefs, unlike some who I have met who just give lip service to Spirit or look for personal monetary gain.

The uncomplicated teachings of Paul are humbling and finally, after years of hearing so many confusing and conflicting theories, speaks the truth about Spirit to my very core.

I would recommend anyone to read 'A Mere Grain of Sand', even if it is the only spiritual book they read in their lives.

The Eternal Truth

Paul of Tarsus had a vision of Jesus on the road to Damascus that inspired him to spread Christ’s teachings. Following his conversion from his native faith and religious ancestry, his hitherto comfortable and privileged life became challenging and, at times, frightening and painful.

Spreading Christ’s message of love was fraught with danger, torture and imprisonment in the violent times within which he lived.

Although there were times of great suffering Paul, always a free spirit,  remained resolute and passionate about his beliefs to the detriment of his own health and ultimately of his own life. He was beheaded at the age of sixty four at the behest of Emperor Nero.

Paul has now been in Spirit nearly two thousand years and has gained a tremendous amount of knowledge. Not only has he cured thousands of people on Earth as a skilled and highly respected spiritual surgeon through the unique mediumship of Raymond Brown, but when he can, he tries to teach those willing to listen, the truth about life in the spiritual realms.

In the inspiring book A Mere Grain of Sand, the fascinating story of his work with Raymond and Gillian Brown, he offers glimpses of his world. In this companion book Paul goes into more detail about life in Spirit, what happens when we ‘die’, reincarnation, karma, progression and the various levels where spiritual people are trained to serve.

For anyone who has wondered about spiritual life, who is perhaps confused or still searching having read other books, this is the only truth, because it comes from the highest level and is approved and sanctioned by the Higher Council in Spirit.

This is the Eternal Truth.

A Mere Grain of Sand

When is Ray Brown not Ray Brown? When he is St.Paul. This conundrum sums up the momentous central claim of this extraordinary book - that St. Paul is personally working through Britain's leading spiritual healer, Ray Brown, to provide modern evidence that all humanity survives physical death.

Ray Brown is a trance medium and for up to seven hours each working day he allows his body to be occupied by a remarkable 'spiritual surgeon' who in the past forty years has undisputedly healed thousands of people which conventional medicine could not help in Britain, Africa, Europe and Asia.

That surgeon says he is Paul of Tarsus, who 2,000 years ago helped found the Christian religion. Employing advanced medical science techniques, he says he has returned not only to heal and ease suffering but to teach a non-Christian spirituality and answer positively that age-old question: do we really survive physical death?

This dramatically intertwined story of Ray, his wife Gillian and Paul could easily grace a Hollywood blockbuster. While training to be a trance medium, Ray's own life was a white-knuckle roller coaster ride through childhood traumas, several near-fatal accidents, two turbulent marriages and a desperate, botched suicide attempt. Only Gillian's arrival, contrived by Paul, brought a vital stability to his healing mission. Despite the great magnitude of the book's claimed revelations, the essential humility of its central figure is reflected in its title.

'I am just Paul,' he says. 'A servant of God, a mere grain of sand in a vast desert.'
