[Music] where ancient wisdom and modern research converge Divine Science [Music] emerges do near-death experiences and memories of past lives imply the existence of Life Beyond Death a question once relegated to spirituality and myth is now at the Forefront of scientific inquiry in the US the New York Academy of Sciences published a study indicating that nearly 9 million Americans have had experiences suggestive of an afterlife similarly across the Atlantic the University of copenhagen's research shows that about about 10% of Europeans report near-death experiences often described as more Vivid than Earthly existence the intersection of near-death and
reincarnation research suggests a Consciousness that might survive beyond our Physical Realm prompting renewed scientific and philosophical inquiry could there indeed be an afterlife and what signs might indicate its existence a lot of times when you come across what people are the most afraid of it's This Thing Called Death well I can tell you without any question that there is no such thing how do I know I have been dead and I have come back from the dead no one dies it's the biggest lie you will ever be told I've known quite a few people who
have had profound near-death experiences and the commonality that I find between them is that nearly all of them describe an experience where they enter this luminous realm of heavenly experience now sometimes before they enter that realm there is a flashback of their lives there's a deep internal process that they go through relinquishing Letting Go grieving sometimes feeling scared not wanting to leave their family their loved ones and a lot of them tend to also have a conversation with a being on the other side that says hey you have two choices here you can either come
with me or you can go back and those people all chose to go back no two near-death experiences are the same but when you study a lot and I've studied over 4,000 you see a very consistent pattern of elements or characteristics what happens in a near-death experience a common first thing that happens is of course they have that physical trauma so severe that they're unconscious or even clinically dead within seconds the electroen measurement of brain electrical activity is absolutely flat so we know that we know when a person is unconscious we can measure it clinically
we can see their pupils don't dilate they're not breathing spontaneously their heart is stopped I mean they're literally shut down at the level of the brain stem after cardiac arrest and yet by the hundreds and hundreds we have people reporting near-death experiences at this time again absolutely no possible explanation of physical brain function whatsoever so at that time when they shouldn't have any memory at all they do a common first element is what's called an outof Body Experience Consciousness separates from their body often laying on the floor and rises above and from that vantage point
they can see and hear ongoing Earthly events often including frantic efforts of people trying to bring them back to life when I lifted out of my body I was burning and on fire and the Flash of the lightning had burnt my eyes so much I could not see and I was paralyzed and on fire and then all of a sudden I lift out of my body I have no pain I see myself lying on the bed I heard the paramedic say he's gone he's gone and I could feel this tunnel forming over my left shoulder
and I looked and I was pulled down this tunnel and I came into this place of light bright beautiful light and then in that realm they're in what we call unearthly or if you will Heavenly Realms they can also encounter what we call Spiritual Beings these are beings variably described they may be called Angels they may be called Spiritual Beings the near-death experiencer will often ask the questions that are if you will some of the greatest questions that we and humankind have answered throughout history and they get answers and what's so remarkable is that these
answers are remarkably consistent further strong evidence that near-death experiences are not the creation of Prior pre-existing Earthly belief cultural beliefs or even religious beliefs but there's something new something dramatic information that they're receiving that is information that they never knew of before and couldn't even have conceived of before such consistently reported encounters across diverse cultures and backgrounds highlight a significant aspect of the near-death Journey the meeting with entities that embody wisdom far surpassing our worldly experiences and then I moved into this Crystal Cathedral and I'm met by these 13 beings and they radiated and there
was a 13th being and the 13th being controlled everything and it would designate a being and that being would begin to radiate until it was nothing nothing but that but I could smell it and sense it and be around it I was not separate from anything and nothing was separate from me we always go in front of a group called the council the wise Elders the avatars where we can ask anything we wish and they're not judges they are loving kind welcoming beings that give us Direction not advice but Direction and usually about understanding the
a bigger purpose what our purpose is they may have what's called a Life review they may become aware or even all of their prior life and at that time they're often feeling intense une Earthly positive emotions and even have a sense so often described that this unearthly beautiful realm seems to be their real home you're going to see your whole life pass before you in a 360° Panorama you're going to watch it by like a second person point of view as though you were your own best friend and so when you see how stupid you
are you see how funny and wonderful you are it doesn't have an ego to it it's like a friend telling you and then you're going to literally become every person that you ever encounter and you're going to feel the direct results of your interaction between you and that person that means nobody gets away with anything and the universe is fair and just and then you will ask ask yourself a question in the life you just reviewed what difference did you and the Divine make that is the single most lifechanging structure that almost everybody who's ever
had this experience says happens to them so when you stop and look at that panoramic Life review and you see the impact it has if that's not the point where you change and shift then you are making a horrible horrible mistake in the power of your thoughts the grace of your love your ability to reflect the Divinity in your actions and your deeds and the elevation of your spiritual consciousness to the next octave to me personally I think some of the strongest evidence for the reality of a near-death experience is these consistent what you could
call spiritual messages that the near-death experiencer brings back uh over and over they come back with an awareness that love is the predominant force in the universe within the scientific Community there's a diverse range of opinions when it comes to near-death experiences in my entire life as a scientist it is absolutely amazing to me that disconnect of near-death experienced Skeptics between what we all know is conventional and appropriate science and between how the Skeptics View and try to process near-death experience it's as if the Skeptics are so convinced that near-death experience es must be due
to the physical brain function that they completely throw out the window all that they learned as a scientist in terms of scientific methodology and investigation and explaining what you observed in science you would look at what occurs during a near-death experience you would observe all the characteristics and you would try to develop a hypothesis that explains what is actually observed during a near-death experience well speaking collectively about Skeptics of near-death experience that's not the science they follow over and over we hear people coming up with ideas that have nothing to do with what we're observing
so consistently in near-death experiences while near-death experiences provide one layer of understanding about the continuity of Consciousness the concept of reincarnation introduces a different dimension to the exploration of Life Beyond its physical form hypnotic regression offers a significant Avenue in this exploration revealing detailed past life memories when these Recollections are validated with striking accuracy they provide not just personal affirmations but also substantial evidence for the Soul's journey across multiple lifetimes in about 2010 a major Network came and asked me if I would be prepared to work with them to verify by whether past life regression
was real or not and I said yes I would one of them was amazing he was a gentleman in his mid 40s I think who certainly did not believe in past lives before he did this and he was a Jesuit priest trainee in Ireland and in the end he killed himself he committed suicide of course he didn't get buried in the barel ground he was buried outside when they took him back to Ireland cuz they took these people back to where they had a past life he was overcome with emotion and he knew exactly where
things were he knew where his room was in that building he knew he just went he was just guided there and he'd never been there before this to me is verification we as beings are having a continuous stream of experience that experience doesn't end when we die we continue experiencing ourselves having the experience of I am the perception that we exist and then perhaps we lose a little bit of the memory of everything that we've just been through as we shove ourselves into a new tiny little packet of cells becoming a body and are born
again having another lifetime of experience going through big changes learning new lessons growing as a soul before we die and start the journey again now when we die does it all just end no we likely change the way that our body works we are operating now outside of a physical body but in a different kind of body a body that is still assembled of light a body that still operates with all of these different capacities to sense and feel and relate with others and for those that have had deep and profound afterlife experiences they would
describe it as not that different from this world yet a little less fixed things are a little less tactile and tangible but like a dream they still can be experienced with just as much depth and realism as each of our incarnations [Music]
