Dr. Eben Alexander ~ Proof of Heaven

Proof of heaven Eben Alexander

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER
Eben Alexander III, M.D. an academic neurosurgeon for over 25 years, including 15 years at the Brigham & Women's Hospital, and Harvard Medical School in Boston, had a near-death experience (NDE). A scientific journey into consciousness ensued resulting in his book - "Proof of Heaven; A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife."

Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress.

Dr. Alexander, a renowned academic neurosurgeon, spent 54 years honing his scientific worldview. He thought he knew how the brain and mind worked. A transcendental Near-Death Experience (NDE), in which he was driven to the brink of death and spent a week deep in coma from an inexplicable brain infection, changed all of that – completely!

He was shocked to find the hyper-reality of that spiritual realm, which many had reported in NDEs. He has spent the last two and a half years reconciling his rich spiritual experience with contemporary physics and cosmology. His spiritual experience is totally consistent with the leading edges of scientific understanding today.

Together, science and spirituality will thrive in a symbiosis offering the most profound insight into fundamental Truth, yielding unimaginable power. The keystone is in global progression of individual conscious awakening.

Dr. Alexander believed that so-called "consciousness" was only an illusion created by the biochemical functioning of the brain. Dr. Alexander would have held this view to his own deathbed had it not been for his experiencing an event so miraculous that it defies all conventional scientific explanation. Dr. Alexander experienced a vivid journey into the afterlife. He was guided by an angelic being and shown the Divine Source. He then returned to his physical body, experienced a miraculous healing, and went on to write the book "Proof of Heaven." What Dr. Alexander confirms is that our life on planet Earth is a "test" of personal growth, and that the way to make progress in this test is to overcome evil while spreading love and compassion.

Here are some notable points he makes.

• The experience of the afterlife was so "real" and expansive that the experience of living as a human on Earth seemed like an artificial dream by comparison.

• The fabric of the afterlife was pure LOVE. Love dominated the afterlife to such a huge degree that the overall presence of evil was infinitesimally small.

• In the afterlife, all communication was telepathic. There was no need for spoken words, nor even any separation between the self and everything else happening around you.

• The moment you asked a question in your mind, the answers were immediately apparent in breathtaking depth and detail. There was no "unknown" and the mere asking of a question was instantly accompanied by the appearance of its answers

Simon & Schuster published his NY Times #1 best selling book "Proof of Heaven." and organized a major media extravaganza ever since the October 23 book launch, including Dr. Alexander's appearance on national television and radio, like Oprah, Katie, Larry King Now, Nightline, GMA, and Newsweek, as well as visits in New York, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington and numerous other locales.

All Experiencers are Welcome.
We are creating an opportunity for experiencers to sit and share just with other experiencers. So we may discuss how our experiences changed our lives, what obstacles we overcame, and what obstacles we are now facing. Helping us all through the integration to healthier lives.

When we say experiencer, we are talking about any Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE). That includes NDEs, NDLEs, OBEs, Kundalini Experiences, or any form of Spiritual Awakenings.

Our definition of a spiritually transformative experience or STE:
"An experience is spiritually transformative when it causes people to daily perceive themselves and the world profoundly different: by expanding the individual’s identity, augmenting their sensitivities, and thereby altering their values, priorities and appreciation of the purpose of life."
A STE can occur at any time, to any person, under any circumstance.


David Bennett and Rene Jorgenson were on a PBS TV show on March 29, 2011 and I want to share the link with all of you. It was a very interesting show.

David Bennett, leader of the Upstate NY IANDS group, was one of four “expert” panelists on the WVIA PBS TV station program “Call The Doctor” moderated by George Thomas that was broadcast live Tuesday, March 29th. David joined NDE researchers and authors, Dr. Jeffrey Long and Rene Jorgenson on the hour long program. Representing the materialist point of view with frequent references to the work of Susan Blackmore was the fourth panelist, Tim Cannon, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience from the University of Scranton.
