What a wonderful discussion. Thank you for taking the time to really explore the topic deeply and meaningfully with Dr. Greyson. I noticed that, quite often, he seems to be at the edge of tears and being choked up. It's so touching to hear someone so accomplished be so sensitive to the realness and beauty of his subject matter. As a highly sensitive person, i can truly appreciate that about him.
Fascinating & intriguing field of study. Very promising - could yield remarkable insight into the nature of consciousness & it's relationship with the body.
As a fan of Ms Hagerty,s book reviews on NPR, I have come to expect a more skeptical and critical approach. There was little of this in the interview. It was more like an interview on the morning talk shows. The author never seems to look at alternate explanations for some of the NDE phenomena. For example with the man who claimed he spoke with the nurse killed in the car accident. When did he first tell this story? You can be sure that the hospital was buzzing with story of the nurses accident. Many times false memories are developed after the fact. Often without conscious awareness.
I researched this. Dr. Bruce Hreyson is actually extremely critical in his research. I read his book and then researched each case he includes. All of them that he includes in the books are additionally verified by doctors or nurses in the experiencers care. Also, he is extremely critical in physiological research into potential causes for the NDE which is why he is often brought in and included into current NDE research at institutions such as the University of Leige in the Netherlands, and the New York Academy of Sciences to name a few. It’s legit.
@@michaeldecarli5243 In a review of Dr. Greysons work, Neuropsychologist Sebastian Dieguez comments that the Dr. Is essentially positing a “Soul of the Gaps” argument for what occurs in near death experiences. What this means, is where there is a gap in scientific understanding , INSERT A SOUL (OR GOD) AS THE MOST PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATION.
@@janman55 I know what a soul of the gaps means in science. The problem with Dieguez’s review is he doesn’t have any explanation himself, only a critique… he tosses around a left home sphere/ right hemisphere hypothesis but these are very archaic explanations of NDE’ that have been discussed since the mid 1980’s… Dieguez also wrote a very critical review of Greysons book Irreducible Mind. I found this odd because Irreducible Mind tells you up front that they aren’t providing answers and are just explaining the areas of the kind that aren’t currently explainable by materialistic science… actually there are no materialistic scientific explanations that encompass the full scope of the NDE. I’m not saying this as an avid supporter of a non materialistic approach but the fact of the data is every single hypothesis presented so far hasn’t held up.
@@michaeldecarli5243 Thank you for your knowledgeable response. It all boils down to “We don’t yet have an explanation”. Do you not think that Dr. Greyson believes in the soul based on his religious beliefs, and his research is aimed at finding evidence for it? This is how bias is introduced into science, producing skewed results.
@@janman55 I am pretty sure preconceived religious notions are not a worry point in Dr. Greysons case. You really should read his actual research papers. He comes from an atheistic background and his research is all from the materialistic mindset. It’s profound because his research kept coming up inconclusive or wrong from various materialistic angles.
I Love and Miss You, Mitchell. Dad

The soul leaves the body. The soul is conscious.

Great stories but I’ve heard them all before. I was hoping to hear something new.
