Consciousness Beyond Death: Findings from 20 Years of LSD Research — Christopher Bache

In this episode, Niall speaks with Dr. Christopher Bache about his 20-year exploration of consciousness, including 73 high-dose LSD sessions undertaken as part of a disciplined, structured inquiry. Dr. Bache is a Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Youngstown State University. Dr. Bache’s journey moved beyond personal healing into encounters with collective consciousness and what he calls the diamond soul. His work brings together philosophy, spirituality, and direct investigation of non-ordinary states of awareness. In this conversation, they explore: — How psychedelic experiences revealed the boundary between individual and collective consciousness — The evolutionary purpose of reincarnation and its role in human development — Why a collective dark night of the soul may precede a major shift in consciousness — How meeting suffering, personal and collective, can open the way to deeper freedom — Why Dr. Bache understands death as a homecoming rather than an ending And more.
