Originally published in 1975, 'Life After Life' is a qualitative study where Dr. Raymond Moody interviewed 150 people who had undergone near-death experiences (NDEs). The book details common elements in NDEs, such as an overwhelming feeling of peace, being located outside one's physical body, floating through darkness or a tunnel, encountering a 'being of light,' and experiencing a rapid succession of visual images of one's past. Moody's work neither rejects these experiences on scientific grounds nor sensationalizes them, offering a balanced and insightful look into the phenomenon of NDEs. The book has sold over 13 million copies and has been translated into a dozen foreign languages, making it an international bestseller and a seminal work in the field of NDE studies.
In 'After,' Dr. Bruce Greyson shares his transformative journey and extensive research on near-death experiences (NDEs). Starting from a position of scientific skepticism, Greyson delves into the nature of consciousness and the continuity of life beyond death. The book presents first-person accounts of NDEs, discusses various theories, and explores how these experiences can change individuals' outlooks on life. Greyson argues that dying could be a transition rather than an ending, challenging the conventional fear of death and offering a new perspective on the human experience. The book is accessible to both newcomers and those already familiar with the subject, providing a balanced and scientifically grounded exploration of NDEs[2][3][4].
In this episode, Dr. Bruce Greyson explores near-death experiences (NDEs) and what they reveal about consciousness and life beyond the body. He discusses common patterns in NDEs, personal accounts of life reviews and encounters with beings, and the Greyson/NDE Scale used to study these phenomena. Learn how beliefs may shape NDEs and the insights people bring back about the purpose of human life.
