    Eben Alexander gives a truly extraordinary presentation. It has taken me half a century of hard times, meditation and withering deprivation while studying ontology to find myself where this man is today. Unfortunately, I have not had an NDE but similar mystical experiences, tiny prizes one finds when honestly seeking, have helped me along the cobble-stoned road.

    Interesting NDE, which cross-references well with many other NDEs. I think the "orb" that Eben talks about reveals an important insight about the process. During his NDE, this orb acted as a kind of "interpreter", as Eben says, between his limited consciousness and the vast Universal Source Consciousness/Mind. Many people who also experienced this "interface" - as some others call it - during their NDEs also "saw" it as a white light/orb, while others experienced it as an image of various religious figures or loved ones who they were close to during their lives. One guy even saw this interface as his dog, which I think is totally cool! Imagine having a conversation with your dog about the nature of reality/consciousness. LOL.
    Another intriguing part of Eben's NDE was the realization that he is made of the same "conscious stuff" as the Source Consciousness, AND that he is an invaluable part of this Universal Consciousness. I have seen this concept expressed in many other NDEs - that we are each a small piece and ultimately one with the Source consciousness. As opposed to what many religions teach - that individual consciousness/mind is separate from Source Consciousness/Mind. The Oneness model makes a lot more sense to me. Cheers.

    Dr. Eben Alexander's experience showed human consciousness "collapses the wave function" to create "hard reality." Our consciousness is a work of cocreation, a concept that continually popped up in my poetry, seemingly out of thin air. Our bodies are mortal, but our spirit is Immortal--Then I discovered my poetry was Gnostic, but I had not known what Gnosticism was about. Then I began to understand the “dazzling darkness” I had witnessed in meditation, and the weird poetry many found so evocative.

    Yes, the witness is the reality behind the universe. When the pineal gland opens we leave the body and experience reality. It's available in deep meditation. It's what Christ meant in the bible passage, 'if thine eye be single, thy body will be full of light', the third eye, the eye of horus, the giant pine cone sculpture in the Vatican court yard.

    Just to clarify; Eben doesn't say he had an NDE. What happened is his brain was not functioning because of his meningitis. He was clinically "brain dead". If we need our brain to hallucinate, how could he hallucinate if his brain was not functioning. So he deduced that we have consciousness outside of the brain. I think science is in the process of being able to explain that, but his book is interesting because he has experienced it. Anyway I don't understand all this backlash he is simply describing his experience.

    • @atthehops
      @atthehops 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I recently revisited the details of memory formation. Memory formation in the brain occurs in a specific way. First there is working memory. It occurs in the prefrontal cortex, and can call upon long term memories that are store in various parts of the brain for reference. Recalled long term memory and working memory both make up short term memory. Anyone that has tried to remember a phone number knows that small term memory needs to be practiced a few times in order for it to become a long term memory.
      Here we are talking about a relatively simple combination of seven numbers and still it can be difficult to recall them without practicing them over and over. Think of how difficult it is to recall a computer password when it is not used often enough.
      Dreams are difficult to recall for the same reason; we hold them in working memory but rarely process them out into long term memory.
      Alexander's story raises several questions about how the processing of his mental event resulted in long term memories since, by his own admission, his brain was "destroyed."
      This would mean he had no working memory, no ability to recall long term memory, and no ability to process these short term memories into long term memory.
      Second, we might ask when did his mental event of his occur during his ordeal? It certainly would seem as if it needs to have occurred during the recovery period if we are to accept that he has memories.

      ***** I read enough brain science to know that we don't have it "all" wrong.
      There is evidence that a the upper brain stem, pons and midbrain, is involved core consciousness, and that consciousness is present even in children born with a cerebral cortex.
      www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17475053
      The cerebral cortex is divided into four sections, called "lobes": the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, and temporal lobe.
      Frontal Lobe- associated with reasoning, planning, parts of speech, movement, emotions, and problem solving
      Parietal Lobe- associated with movement, orientation, recognition, perception of stimuli
      Occipital Lobe- associated with visual processing
      Temporal Lobe- associated with perception and recognition of auditory stimuli, memory, and speech
      I search for Greyson's account of this girl and found a reference to it in his book, "Irreducible Mind" but few detail are provided about who this girl actually was.
      In 1980, Roger Lewin published an article in Science, "Is Your Brain Really Necessary?" about the research of John Lorber who had made a similar claim, and which Greyson refers to in his book. That research was later dismissed, "During a TV program about the student, Lorber later stated that he "was only half serious."
      The bottom line is that there is only anecdotal evidence to this point.

      ***** Here's something else to consider: Spirituality is brain based
      "University of Missouri researchers have completed research that indicates spirituality is a complex phenomenon, and multiple areas of the brain are responsible for the many aspects of spiritual experiences.
      “We have found a neuropsychological basis for spirituality, but it’s not isolated to one specific area of the brain,” said Brick Johnstone, professor of health psychology in the School of Health Professions. “Spirituality is a much more dynamic concept that uses many parts of the brain. Certain parts of the brain play more predominant roles, but they all work together to facilitate individuals’ spiritual experiences.”

    There’s so many things I’d like to say, that it’s going to be difficult for me summarize the most important. I should 1st say that I have no doubt that this man’s experience was very real and there was obviously a reason for why he had this experience and survived to share it. The only thing that’s troublesome to me, and what I’m trying very hard to reconcile, although I’m sure that he’s also wanting to instill an inclusiveness to all spiritual beliefs in their concepts of God. But unfortunately I can’t think of a way to accomplish that completely, because in his enthusiasm of not wanting to offend anyone, he’s also denying the spiritual beliefs of the largest religion in the world, who basically for the most all believe in the gospels message as the inspired word of God, in that Jesus Christ willingly died on the cross for the atonement of mankind’s sins, and so it’s because of his sacrifice that we have a pathway to heaven. As well as Satan & evil are very real and Jesus spoke of hell more than he did of heaven. Although, I or anyone else saying that obviously doesn’t make it true, and no one is forced to believe it, but what if it is true? And that’s the point, but why he didn’t also experience that truth like so many other’s did in their NDE testimony’s I don’t know. I can only imagine that the explanation is the same as he gave for why some people experienced hellish NDE’s, he said that they just didn’t get that far yet. And the one’s we’ve heard anyway we’re eventually rescued by the Lord. And I would hope that not everyone has to experience a hellish NDE first, because most didn’t. But I believe the bottom line is, rejecting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the worst of all possible options.

    Jesus didn’t teach reincarnation he taught resurrection. There is a big difference between them.

No one with flesh and bones can enter heaven but your soul, which your conscience is part of.

    Look, I am not trying to explain away all this and I have not read his book, but... is it not possible he had this experience right before his brain stopped functioning? I mean, a dream might seem to take on days, but that doesn't mean that the physical event also has to take on days... so just because Eben was clinically dead and had no brain activity, does not mean that the brain could not have insinuated the dream right before all brain activity ceased.

    i dont think we get re-incarnated. if we did, we would all have multiple sets of parents. as far as kids having contact with past lives, that could be answered more simply, by just assuming that somehow there are times in which we can access a part of the consciousness field that is not our own.

    The moment you die will be the greatest release you will ever experience. Some liken it to *taking off a tight shoe*

    He has major credentials. What a unique position he is in. I have trouble believing such stuff. I wasn't atheist and is a young teen now we moved into a harder place is demon stuff used to get done there people used to do devil worship or something we got told. We didn't believe anything we didn't see parents were very atheist and such scientific. Well yeah things happen and something was trying to suck the life force out of us or the souls out of us I don't know this thing was coming in the middle of the night creaking walking right up next to our bed sounds just like a person creaking up breathing on it sometimes and I mean wake it up feel like something is there and cover my head with a blanket and fall back asleep but then having nightmares and night terrors about being pulled down and having something trying to suck the life out of me and dreams are running for my life from these horrific things and and bad stuff starts happening around the house seeing red glowing eyes and dark forms and feeling these feelings of dread and doom friends and people come over having horrific instances and flashes and Visions seeing things at night taking off never want to come back at night again you know. I'd like to have thought it was a brain cancer or schizophrenia but it wasn't. Other people have related going through the same things that I was going through at the time but I hadn't told anybody here and he's being called and hearing and seeing certain things like the eyes so extremely extremely bizarre and that really added to the horrifyingness of it all and feeling of evil and horrible feelings. I eventually went up to Catholic Church during day weather clothes prayed for my life it seemed to sell things down and I started praying more and sticking with the Bible more and I kind of got less loan so I moved out. But since then I've had some other houses that were haunted by dead people. Wasn't too bad I didn't have another house with an X that was super horrifying we think it was actually something was just coming to us cuz it wasn't there when we first moved in this is just going over started seeing dark forms on the wall like something was trying to come through the wall I was just it's just horrifying and she was the type that didn't want to believe but by this point realize it was real but yeah we were super horrified some of their noises were hearing her names be called sometimes other times we were hearing things like help me up at night and the voice was so deep so low tone it did not sound human it was super horrifying man. No one is being tough at this point I'd have gotten used to so much stuff through my life and sounds of choking right next to me started to happen like somebody was being choked right there next to me with horrifying and I went upstairs and I'm trying to lay them next to my ex and she's asleep and I can feel like something is that right there on the side of me right next to the bed and I'm trying to keep turned away from it keep the blanket over my head and cover in my hand over my ear and I can hear them even through that. It is super horrible I've had much of various stuff going on here there since then nowadays living with my family outside of town 42 we have some mystery health problems like a lot of people that are sensitives and or it live around paranormal stuff if you're watching The Dead Files that's a lot of stuff that I've gone through and people I know have gone through and health problems always seem to be a thing with people who deal with the Paranormal on a regular basis. I haven't ever learned how to really protect myself or do this you do that and I'm going to try to get on that cuz that seems to be a thing but I know there's salt and tar water having things blessed stuff that people should do protect themselves never mess with the Ouija board and never try to call anything out or do anything to get the attention Supernatural and you shouldn't go like ghost hunting with random peoples and various places people do get followed home a lot of stuff like that. I've done some work checking out some paranormal places with people in the past I was never filed home but I ran into some horrifying stuff here there some human Spirits came extremely powerful and it can hurt you and even kill you it's real and demons you don't even want to know how powerful they are and then there's extra dimensional entities like shadow people and there's a lot of other similar to that extra dimensional so it's benign some of it is just as bad as demonic.

Since you weren't born again...Jesus said unless you are born again you cannot see heaven. I had a incredible intimite relationship with Jesus and rebelled and died and went to hell, horror that can't be described. My experience lasted close to 10 days. Jesus is the way the truth and the life. John 14.6. When you mention the other God's is blasphemy if you believe in them. Pray and ask Jesus if this experience was from God. I don't know why people are making a big deal about it. Read Mickey Robinson falling to heaven. Bill Weise 23 minutes in hell. Ronald Reagan See's hell, not the president. Mary k Baxter. Captain Dale who dies and talks to Jesus. I truly believe you were deceived.

    God gives us these testimonials , just like the Shroud of Turin, to show us how much he loves us and we should have no doubt on his truth. There are also hellish testimonials that speak thar ther are places for people like Hitler, just as Jesus testified about. Listen to these testimonials, but also read the Bible and any book based strictly on love, so what book has a God-man being born in to the human race and sacrificed to take us to heaven? It's all based on sacrificial love, because to love is not killing, but rather suffering to give it. No suicide bombers wanting to take your life, but a love that wants to give you life as Jesus said.

    these are facts what eben says, i have also my own exp not so far as eben so widley, but it's real even the spiral light he saw, i saw it to only i had no near death exp and i went not through it because of fear that it was not my time to leave that was what i feld on that momet and the light goes back and open my eyes. but other dimensions exist i had visitations from human looking from higher dimensions where you can only feel unconditional love, i had this twice, also visitations from other beings like the mantis and the grays, also orbs and light yellow glowing balls coming from thin air and going away in thin air, this i exp twice or 3 times at home later on i came across my friend even he saw it also not knowing what it was. i have couple of out of body exp, remote viewig, saw the moon and sun from a distance, the sun is pur white very strong light i could not see to long at it but i know for a fact now i have seen it for my self the nasa fotos where you see the sun with a black dot i the midle because the sun is to strong, these fotos are rea but mostly nasa is not honest with humaity about space ect. and i saw the moon i saw a yellow moon the same as we see from earth but the moo is not really yellow it's because of the reflection of the light and i saw white lights on the moon like if there is cristal or glass structures, in fact whistleblowers talk also about this whats on the moon not told by nasa because it's all cover up by high levels of elite, only through whistleblowers infomation can be available and even when you exp it yourself first hand the same like eben and me and many many others. also i had a vision of two suns in the sky later on i came on the net not with coinscidence information about that nasa says we could see a sec like sun in the sky in the near future, they speak about a supernova, but i feld this was a disinfo and somethig else was going on, maybe it could be the return of nibiru. also when i was asleep, but suddenly i became awake but my eyes where closed i heard a voice saying come and life for us, but i said i will never accept it because it feld wrong, and another exp i heard a voice not so clear as the firt one, this one it was like a dreamlike, but it said you don't know who you really are. then another one later it said you are a king in another dimension. so beside that i have very clear more exp to much to write it here all down, but one thing i can say is eben and people with similar exp are telling facts and are not illusions, the only illusion we grow up with since birth is death and the way our politics works and thinkig we are alone in space. it's great information what eben brings but i also advise with an open mind to explore david icke, jordan maxwell, bob dean, steven greer, rauni kilde who is past over kiledl by the elite through exotic weapens according the information, project camelot, docu thrive, fastwalkers, before discloser, ect ect ect there are more whitleblowers and docu you can explore, but once you are started to view one of these i said you can be leaded to other information. i just want to share this with you it's a part of my job so to speak, but it's fine to watch eben, but still it's also very important to know whats going on on this planet even maybe not eben is aware of, at the end some one can guide you but you are the one to open the door.

    I believe what happened to Eben. But I can't help where my mind goes as I ponder Eben's experience. For some reason the starving people come to my mind. The severely starving children and their severely starving mom with no milk in her breasts. Those children who suffer in agony ONLY LIVING WAITING TO DIE IN STARVATION HELL. I wonder about them. I wonder WHY this is? My mind see's these lives as pointless in an afterlife. Why do small children die of starvation everyday? The problem of this arises. And as much as I believe Eben's journey, I hate to know of the starving journey of children. The idea of our existence just seems so cruel, mean, sick and evil. I just wish all afterlife or near death stories were identical in detail.

      Swedenborg, Urantia, Dolores cannon, Eben Alexander, ALL near death experiences from all people~ What these have in common is the people are still here to report.
      You stated, " at some point it will be explained " ~ I completely agree with that. Only I am going to add the word " finally" to the end of the sentence. The individual who perishes would need to stay perished and only knows from that point forward. In my honest opinion, I can not believe any living person's account about after life experience BECAUSE deception is a real problem.
      ..deception is a plausible block to the very audience who will believe a wonderful afterlife account. The ONLY reason the AFTERLIFE concept is plausible is because of proof in the unseen spirit forces I am happy to know exists.

    • @FemFootPower
      @FemFootPower 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Steve Centeno Steve, I hear you..BUT, I think the answer is already and always been here. In actuality, it is simple and falls into place with exactly what Alexander has stated. He said, " LOVE is what its all about..nothing more than LOVE." There are always the haves and have-nots in societies worldwide. The haves must learn to be less selfish and give give give. If even a 1/10,000 of the "have's" around the world gave 1/1000 of what they have to poverty, starvation, medicine, drout area populations etc..etc..etc...then those people would ALL have FOOD, SHELTER, CLOTHING, WATER, MEDICINE and a place to live. I saw an NDE with a young girl in a lecture she did....and she had the NDE when she was 12 years old in France. After coming back from death...she told her siblings and parents and friends about her NDE.....and she said that GOD and the learned others she met there...sent her a message which they wished for her to tell the pope in the Vatican. The message was, " Melt down your altars of gold....and feed your people." So...the starvation does NOT have to be...and shouldn;t.....and if we ALL just gave total LOVE as Dr.Alexander was stating....then that starvation, poverty, disease etc. etc...would disappear very VERY fast on this planet.

      Steve Centeno If you haven't already, you may look into videos, books of/by Robert Schwartz. He gets into concepts of soul groups and pre-life planning. Also, I believe that one of the reasons for the many disparities that exist at this time is the result man-kinds love affair with the ego. The ego is primarily concerned with its own gain, wealth, status, etc. If we had a better understanding of what/who we really are as spiritual beings, we would be more interested in the welfare of all souls and not simply our own. Keep searching the answers are out there in many forms. Good day!

    The results of a four-year international study of 2060 cardiac arrest cases across 15 hospitals concludes the following. The themes relating to the experience of death appear far broader than what has been understood so far, or what has been described as so called near-death experiences. In some cases of cardiac arrest, memories of visual awareness compatible with so called out-of-body experiences may correspond with actual events. A higher proportion of people may have vivid death experiences, but do not recall them due to the effects of brain injury or sedative drugs on memory circuits. Widely used yet scientifically imprecise terms such as near-death and out-of-body experiences may not be sufficient to describe the actual experience of death. The recalled experience surrounding death merits a genuine investigation without prejudice.

What?!? It's too bad that I couldn't reply anything on that video because the comment section was turned off (I don't know why... feedback it's important but I guess since he is a 'doctor of the brain', he feels he can give a whole lecture without taking criticism..?) No my dear doctor, I've listen to the Whole of your experiences and you've got the "idea" backwards... The brain doesn't have the means or power or ability to unify your so called 'consciousness'... IT IS THE OTHER WAY AROUND! Consciousness is the life force of the Soul and structures physical reality from within, the brain is a 'byproduct' of Consciousness and it manifests and sees reality from the OUTSIDE. The brain is the middle man, the connector between inner and outer reality and it doesn't "think", it connects language, telepathy and 'thinking' via Neural-impulses that are created by Consciousness, NOT BY THE BRAIN. Please educate yourself into the Science of the Mind, not the brain. You have this WHOLE Concept Backwards. Here is the 'Real info' for your personal edification: SETH SPEAKS & THE NATURE OF PERSONAL REALITY, a Seth Book by Jane Roberts Here, the whole collection is at your disposal but don't get ahead of yourself... You need to start by reading the above titles first to 'edificate' the basis of this studies before you move any further up. I admire your courage and the importance of your experience while in a coma but being a surgeon, qualifies you to do surgery (a physical procedure) and talking about Spirituality is completely another matter altogether.

      "Although I considered myself a faithful Christian, I was so more in name than in actual belief. I didn’t begrudge those who wanted to believe that Jesus was more than simply a good man who had suffered at the hands of the world. I sympathized deeply with those who wanted to believe that there was a God somewhere out there who loved us unconditionally. In fact, I envied such people the security that those beliefs no doubt provided. But as a scientist, I simply knew better than to believe them myself."

      Theodore Hoppe Mr. Alexander did probably not came to realise that since is not objective in all it's presuppositions. He probably felt captive of the scientist dogma because he as any other human, had a tendacy to put some things on the "easier than ..." case. I also do not have an idea of what is really going on in many aspects of reality...as many. It does not all come to be clear as water once one have met the living God, but why should I grasp it all ? No one can, at least not on the actual state of things. God is real with or with out you, take it or leave it, He gave you freedom... up to a certain extent of course, many things are not up to you, but many others, some essential ones are.

    The confident way that he says these things doesn't make them less ridiculous and idiotic

    He had a very real experience no doubt, which would be foolish to reject given the many millions that have experienced the same thing, but I think intelligent viewers should also make the distinction here between his own commentary about what he experienced, and the actual other--worldly experience itself…meaning, that he has developed his own opinion about the experience, which is to be expected, but its naïve and incomplete at best, and doesn’t agree with the most basic reality of the human experience of good and evil and the evidence that the Creator has already presented to humanity. He says it's not about "any one religion" and that anything that "divides people" does not represent this loving god. But this comment is in stark contrast to a number of critically important evidences to the contrary that make his statement very reductionist, too simplistic, and flat wrong. First of all there are 26000 extant documents that reveal that the New Testament writings (and many other writings,for instance the Early Church Fathers)present Jesus as the incarnation of God and the only historical god-knower to claim that he was the "I am " of the universe, and God come in the flesh who taught about both heaven and hell, and who said “if you believe in me you shall suffer persecution”, and whose ministry itself created tremendous controversy (and still does). Then, there is the logical common knowledge among both scholars and layman that either Jesus was who he said he was, or he was a sorely deceived and deluded imposter, and probably the worst to have ever existed. And then there is 2000 years of documented history that reveals the experiences of those who embraced the pathway of Christ and the writings of the New Testament and have corroborated the truths that Jesus taught in their own lives. Alexander is unfortunately yet another voice that brings truth, but along with it a hefty dose of misinformation (by omission) that falls into the same highly-attractive new age doctrine that espouses a mish-mosh of positivity and love but fails to address the hard reality of evil in the world, the absolute nature of truth (which must be exclusive by nature, much to the dismay of small-minded bleeding heart souls that say “oh, no, there couldn’t be only one way, one truth, etc.), the testimony of a mass of others that have seen hell as well and know why people end up there, and a host of other facts.

      Joe Giuffrida "in the beginning was the word. The word was God and was with God" Jesus is God. "I AM the way the truth and the light" as opposed to the false gods worshipped in his day. "The only way to God is through me" through his words of love forgiveness and compassion. "All nations will stand before God" is not indicative of a censorious God.
      Makes no difference if you call God "tomato sauce" if his words are in your heart then that is all that matters.
      Cultures vary, God does not

      Alison, did you read my whole post? Is your post a response to my post?

      Joe Giuffrida hi, sorry, no, it was in response to something someone else wrote. I agree totally with what you said there. Not sure how that happened

      I agree with respect to this account and other accounts depicted of NDE that they are one small view of a much bigger picture. I've just retread your post and I also agree that Jesus is God. But he has many names and this is where I have a different view to yours. To the Christians he is Jesus but don't forget he did not form the religion or name it. He was a Jew. The OT originates from the Torah, an ancient Hebrew text, full of mysticism written by Mystics. He is known as Allah by the Muslims, Buddha Krishna He is God to all nations. It is a little arrogant of the Christians to assume ownership of God, but so do the Muslims. There are many many holy people who are not Christian, wise scholars of other traditions who follow a path of peace and forgiveness and who follow the word of God with greater comprehension than most Christians.
      There is evil and it does exist but most theologian scholars agree that of the few quotes in the NT that are most likely to be authentic Jesus non of them mention judgement to hell for lack of belief and in Mathew he gives a long list of things that will put you in his good books but none suggest faith in him, simply he asks for us to love our neighbour forgive our enemies feed the poor etc.,
      Hell exists for those who have made that choice and being evil is that choice. There are some seriously obnoxious fundamental Christians who do not display the attributes he asks from us but many non Christians who do.
      Heaven is beyond the reach of most of us, paradise is the next best thing. His mansions extend from the lowest to the highest, most of us will fit in somewhere, Christian Muslim Buddhist Hindu et al.

    NDE is a possibility. However it does not answer the link between our freedom to choose and accountability. We should be accountable for what we do in this life. Physical death universality logically proves that there is something within us which survives our death. He has a point on consciouness. Read the book What is Islam by Parwez to understand human accountability.
