A SCIENTIST’S CASE FOR 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.
Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness.
The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion—and in
essence makes us human—shut down completely. For seven days he
lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping
treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back.
Alexander’s recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle
of his story lies elsewhere. While his body lay in coma,
Alexander journeyed beyond this world and encountered an angelic
being who guided him into the deepest realms of super-physical
existence. There he met, and spoke with, the Divine source of the
universe itself.
Alexander’s story is not a fantasy. Before he underwent his
journey, he could not reconcile his knowledge of neuroscience
with any belief in heaven, God, or the soul. Today Alexander is a
doctor who believes that true health can be achieved only when we
realize that God and the soul are real and that death is not the
end of personal existence but only a transition.
This story would be remarkable no matter who it happened to. That
it happened to Dr. Alexander makes it revolutionary. No scientist
or person of faith will be able to ignore it. Reading it will
change your life.
