The Summerlands Mac OS
Summerland introduces itself on Clam Island, an island off of the west coast of the United States. In a particular corner of the island is a place that the locals call the Summerlands, where it has never rained a drop any year in history from June to August. Ethan Feld is an eleven year old that moved to the island with his father just after his mother died a sudden death. The theme of baseball comes into the poem when Ethan finds out that he isn't good at it, despite encouragement from his father and loads of practice. On a baseball team, he proves to be the worst player ever seen.
The Summerlands is an American Entertainment Fanon television sitcom created by Danny Antonucci and produced by the Disney Channel. The show is based on three adolescent boys, Zack, Patrick and Double D. They hang around their suburban neighborhood of Peach Creek Estates, coming up with scams to con their peers for cash, so they can buy themselves a handful of their favorite treat, jawbreakers. Watch trailers, read customer and critic reviews, and buy Summerland directed by Lankyboy for $9.99.
Things start to change when Ethan dramatically meets Cutbelly, a werefox that visits him. Cutbelly explains that Ethan is living in only one of four existing worlds, and the one that he is in now is nicknamed the Middlings. The other three worlds are the Summerlands, the Winterlands, and the Gleaming. Cutbelly explains that it never rains in the Summerlands because two leaves of the Tree of Life are so close that two worlds exist there simultaneously.
Trouble starts to happen when Coyote (who is known by many other names, including Satan), has an idea to poison the Tree of Life, the Tree that holds the whole universe in order. Ethan and his friends Jennifer and Thor work together to stop Coyote. They travel from world to world to stop Coyote, and Ethan uses baseball to ultimately stop him.
Summerland is a book with lots of symbolism and mythology since it is has ideas like other worlds. Many of the characters and ideas are symbols that were originally developed in ancient mythology. The story is filled with action as Ethan travel from world to world to ultimately end Coyote's evil plan.
The Summerland is the name given by Theosophists,[1]Wiccans and some earth-based contemporary pagan religions to their conceptualization of an afterlife.[2][3]

History of the concept[edit]
Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772) inspired Andrew Jackson Davis (1826–1910), in his major work The Great Harmonia, to say that Summerland is the pinnacle of human spiritual achievement in the afterlife; that is, it is the highest level, or 'sphere', of the afterlife we can hope to enter.
C.W. Leadbeater, a Theosophist, also taught that those who were good in their previous earthly incarnation went to a place called Summerland between incarnations.[1]
Theosophy[edit]
In Theosophy, the term 'Summerland' is used without the definite article 'the'. Summerland, also called the Astral plane Heaven, is depicted as where souls who have been good in their previous lives go between incarnations.
Theosophists believe the Summerlands are maintained by hosts of planetary angels serving Sanat Kumara, the Nordic alien from Venus who Theosophists believe is the governing deity of Earth and leader of the Spiritual Hierarchy of Earth. Sanat Kumara is believed to rule over our planet from the floating city of Shamballa, believed by Theosophists to exist on the etheric plane (a plane between the physical plane and the astral plane), about five miles (8 km) above the Gobi Desert.[1]
Theosophists also believe there is another higher level of heaven called Devachan, also called the Mental plane Heaven, which some but not all souls reach between incarnations — only those souls that are more highly developed spiritually reach this level, i.e., those souls that are at the first, second, and third levels of initiation.[1]
The final permanent eternal afterlife heaven to which Theosophists believe most people will go millions or billions of years in the future, after our cycle of reincarnations in this Round is over, is called Nirvana, and is located beyond this physical Cosmos.[1] In order to attain Nirvana, it is necessary to have attained the fourth level of initiation or higher, meaning one is an arhat and thus no longer needs to reincarnate.
