  1. HI! i've been watching many podcasts and documentries for over a year now. I think the subject is fascinating and i like hearing peoples stories.. i just wonder what you think when people ask questions about how the nde's could be made up stories to sell books? i also was wondering about things i've been hearing preachers say about nde's.. I heard them say that after Apostle Paul and lazurus died and came back, it's been said that they didn't meantion anything at all about being in heaven or hell. I want to believe that nde's are true, but how can i really know for sure?

  2. so all the evidence was a available to him before he had his NDE and yet it was foolishness to him. But now since he has had an NDE all that evidence is now relevant. Why does the validity of the evidence around NDE's change simply based on his experience?

  3. Be sure to check out newest edition of A Course in Miracles created by "The Circle of Atonement." It includes channeled source info not included in prior editions, making it easier to read/understand. ACIM includes mind training meditation exercises to help awaken us from our "body-identity illusion" to our reality as eternal beings at one in God

  4. I’m curious how reincarnation can be validated through NDE. How do you explain people born into horribly abusive parents? Extreme poverty? Severe genetic birth defects? Why, when people report who they were in a previous life are never ordinary people, but rather Kings, Princesses, Rulers? And as far as childhood reports of previous lives: Children are very creative and are also very perceptive. Interviews can be skewed and must be done very carefully.
    That said, I won’t completely discount it. I just think I’d like to try something different.

  5. The bible is just 1 book written and rewritten by many people for a culture long ago..its been altered and is a shred of the original content with much taken out…jesus never condemned anyone or talked of actual original sin or him dying for sin..its an irrelevant story book

  6. I think we can understand better that Consciousness and Memory is not the same as Mind and Brain, because we have now something called 'iCloud'; iCloud has nothing to do with clouds, however, we do understand that 'stuff' can be stored outside your computer and Downloaded back into the gadget.

    I really loved this book, I gives a very clear, concise explanation of how we can create our lives using our thoughts and emotions. The best part for me, since I am so busy, is that I was able to read this in just over an hour. There is no extraneous "fluff" and all to the point information. Thanks Tony Monk for a wonderful book, especially in these times when some people are feeling helpless and fearful!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best book on the Manifestation Process

    Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2020

    Manifesting 101 is essential reading that gives you a step by step approach in aligning with your vibrational frequencies to bring to you the gifts of the Universe and all that you desire. Great book, a must read and the best book I have read to date on the manifestation process.

  8. I am fascinated with this subject. I don’t know if I’m a true believer. I imagine I would be more so if I actually had one myself. I’m certainly open to the idea. If we are eternal, I don’t want to be a human again. I’d be ok with merging with pure consciousness.

  9. Eben A. is truly an enlightened individual with a clear scientific mind. I have a master of science degree myself and am soooo tired of scientifically unsatisfying materialistic non-explanations when it comes to anything that can’t be directly observed with current technology. As he states, reductionist materialism is a obsolete paradigm that cannot explain consciousness let alone other observable phenomena like NDE and particle entanglement. It seems to me that the sceptics have a burden of empirical evidence that they are simply unable to lift. We are then left with ‘if I can’t measure it…’ (with what; a thermometer? It is directly and repetitively observable during NDE). Question: We also can’t measure gravity other than by indirect observation, yet we experience it and don’t question that. We don’t even know if it’s electromagnetic energy or not? Why is it so hard for some people to accept NDE experience, that they will rather settle for non-explanations that are so easy to falsify? That seems profoundly unscientific to me.

  10. Nooooooo… I will not do this again!!! Reincarnation is a no!!! Other nde do contradict.. so. I heard no evidence of why he believes or knows.. reincarnation is real? Did I miss that part? Other than that.. I like the message. And believe it.. but I don't believe we have to do this again

  11. i kinda like being an individual do you retain any individuality in that realm not necessarily of my current identity but of some sort of perspective i want to be able to explore and find new things there not just be absorbed into the light it just seems kinda boring and depresses me slightly id like some sort of progression as an individual soul or whatever rather than just being everyone at the same time

  12. His experience is unique – so is Pam Reynolds – both convince me consciousness is more than brain. BUT the most compelling question should be – why do so many people have no experience ?
    What makes one person have a vivid NDE and others absolutely nothing but oblivion. One theory is everyone who is in coma or cardiac arrest has an NDE but then they forget it upon awakening. But I am not convinced by that because such a profound experience should be recalled by everyone.
    I'd be interested to know what others think?

  13. It's becoming clearer that with all the brain and consciousness theories out there, the proof will be in the pudding. By this I mean, can any particular theory be used to create a human adult level conscious machine. My bet is on the late Gerald Edelman's Extended Theory of Neuronal Group Selection. The lead group in robotics based on this theory is the Neurorobotics Lab at UC at Irvine. Dr. Edelman distinguished between primary consciousness, which came first in evolution, and that humans share with other conscious animals, and higher order consciousness, which came to only humans with the acquisition of language. A machine with primary consciousness will probably have to come first.

  14. Extremely interesting although the reference to Muhammad is out of place in my opinion : he was a hateful character and "Allah" was only merciful to muslims and called repeatedly for the death of all the non-believers ( Jews, Christians,Pagans…)

  15. Listening to this as headaches are getting worse and worse… knowing they might clear up with one visit to the chiropractor… that this is what's ahead…

    I can feel self and brain separating…
    So grateful.
