About Annalee Skarin
Biographical Summary:
Annalee Skarin (July 7, 1899 – January 17, 1988), the granddaughter of "Wild Bill" Hickman, was a popular New Age/Metaphysical author who believed in the possibility of attaining Physical Immortality through the ardent pursuit of Christian principles, which she summarized as gratitude, praise and love.
In her writings she rejects the regular Christian doctrine that physical death is inevitable. While she accepts the Christian doctrine that virtuous people can die and be later admitted to Heaven, she regards this path as "the dreary backdoor entrance", and asserts that the path to true glory involves Ascending to Heaven with one's physical body alive and intact, via a process she calls "translation" (overcoming of bodily death).
Originally a devout Mormon, she was excommunicated from the LDS Church shortly after publication of her first book, Ye Are Gods, because it was perceived by high-ranking members of the church that the book's contents seriously blasphemed against Mormon belief. She was readmitted to the church only after her death.
Many proponents of New Age thought believe that Annalee Skarin, along with her husband Reason Skarin, have indeed achieved physical immortality. In fact, word-of-mouth stories abound within the New Age community of Annalee and/or Reason Skarin materializing to people, sharing words of wisdom, then dematerializing. On the other hand, there is evidence that she physically died of natural causes.
