Everyone has a guardian angel

Most of us think that guardian angels are the stuff of fiction, but best-selling angel author, Diana Cooper, claims that each one of us have our own angel that constantly protects and guides us.

London, August 8 : Most of us think that guardian angels are the stuff of fiction, but best-selling angel author, Diana Cooper, claims that each one of us have our own angel that constantly protects and guides us.

Cooper, who describes herself as a "soul therapist," has sold 500,000 books in the UK and about two million worldwide.

Endorsing her belief in spirituality and psychic, Diana, a 66-year-old grandmother who lives in Dorset, says that she actually encountered and connected with angels 25 years ago.

"I was so depressed. One day I was sitting alone feeling desperate and I said out loud: 'If there's anything out there, show me - and you've got one hour.' I wasn't praying; I was crying out from the depths of my soul - but to what? I had no idea. Then I closed my eyes and that's when it happened - an angel came into my mind and into the room," the Daily Express quoted her, as saying.

"It was 6ft tall - I �couldn't see any wings but I felt as if it had pulled me out of my body and we were flying together. This was certainly not a dream, it was 100 per cent a manifestation of an angelic presence. It had no face, no features as such - it was shaped in bright light," she added.

Diana adds that this experience showed her the future path. After the visitation she decided to train as a hypnotherapist and �healer and wrote four self-help books to help others change their lives. She says her greatest transformation came 10 years later when she asked for direction again and she "heard a golden voice," that told her to write a book.

"Three angels, radiant and bright, appeared in front of me and told me to write a book, to tell people how to connect with angels and find their guardian. They asked me to introduce them to the people of the world," she said.

Diana's first book on the subject, A Little Light On Angels was published in 1996 and the reaction was instantaneous. Numerous people visited her website's chat room on the first day it opened.

Diana asserts that religion does not play a role in making people believe in these celestial beings.

"You don't have to be religious. I never was and I'm not now. The fact is that everyone has a guardian angel that they can connect with and I want to show �people how to open up their possibilities so they can be helped as I and so many others have," she said.

"Angels have no free will so they can help only if asked. And that is why, when you connect with angels, you must always ask for their help because they will give it to you," she added.
