The Continuity of Consciousness

Broadcast on November 04, 2022
With Pim van Lommel
Hosted by William Peters, MA

In this informative session, you'll hear from Pim van Lommel, MD, about the findings and conclusions of a prospective and longitudinal study defining near-death experiences (NDEs) as well as analyzing survivors of cardiac arrest. Find out how enhanced consciousness is experienced at the moment the brain no longer functions, and the non-locality of consciousness, as well as other experiences around the deathbed (ELE, terminal lucidity, perimortal experiences, shared death experiences, ADC).

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • Results of a prospective and longitudinal Dutch study on near-death experience (NDE) in 344 survivors of cardiac arrest
  • Several universal elements that can be experienced during NDE and how consciousness and memories could be experienced outside the body
  • The phenomenon of the NDE is an authentic experience that can no longer be scientifically ignored
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.
