68 Deep Insights into Eben Alexander's Near Death Experience
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- This is one of the most fascinating and detailed Near Death Experiences. Eben Alexander, MD, was an academic neurosurgeon for over 25 years, including 15 years at the Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School in Boston. In 2008, he experienced a profound Near-Death Experience (NDE) during a week-long coma from an inexplicable brain infection. This experience completely transformed his worldview. He shares it with us today and answers questions about things he saw and experienced - some of which are beyond comprehension. He is the author of the New York Times #1 bestseller Proof of Heaven, The Map of Heaven and Living in a Mindful Universe. This is episode 68 #nde #ebenalexander #neardeathexperience

Awesome interview!!
Dr Alexander, as one of the world’s top Neuroscientists (and surgeons), cared for my brother Tony in Boston in the 90’s. My brother and our family came to know him as an unusually down to earth, humble and caring man even before the transformative NDE he’s telling of here. To the naysayers, the only thing he may be guilty of is having child like enthusiasm as he shares the details of his life altering experiences. He is an exceptional person of exceptional character. Thank you, Heather for another incredible interview 🎉!!!
Matthew thank you so much for sharing this with all of this. This is so nice to hear. ❤️
Loved the book Proof of Heaven and his butterfly guardian angle. Wonderful to hear from him directly and looking forward to part 2.
Glad you liked it. Part two is out Thursday Jan 4 and is even more interesting than part one.
I like how you have the link to part 2 here, you and your website are professional
Thank you. I appreciate that very much.
Thanks Heather for bringing this great video ❤
You are so welcome Joana. Thanks for watching!
I never get tired of hearing Eben's story. It's so calming and healing. I especially like that the people were dancing! That's evidence that dancing and the music Eben described are divine and very human. Eben described these souls as being between lives. Since the universe, and the worlds, are infinite, then these worlds could be compared to stages where we may play a role. We don the appropriate costumes (bodies) and fulfill whatever purpose we have.
Thanks again for your thoughts Harlan. Always nice hearing them. And I agree Eben’s story and so many other NDE stories are healing and reaffirming.
Thanks for this interview, Eben and Heather...I read "Proof of Heaven" when it first came out; amazing story; certainly a "deep dive" into the NDE...I look forward to Part 2 of this interview!
I’m so glad you liked it Craig. Part two comes out in the morning and I think it is the best of the two parts. Let me know what you think after you hear it.
So much to digest….I need to listen to this a few times. Thank you.
Yes. There is a lot of detail and a lot to digest! It is worth a second listen to catch more.
I have read the book and loved it. Thank you Eben for all you have done to make people aware of what is really going on what it's all about. ✌️❤️🔥🤘
I am glad you enjoyed Eben!
I would love Dr Alexander to discuss his experience and the research findings of his peers with Ricky Gervais. Ricky seems staunchly wedded to the view that on the contrary, science is incontrovertible in its proof that life/consciousness ceases at death.
👍that would be interesting.
I didn't know Gervais thought that...man, will HE be surprised!
@@dragonfly9209 Yes, Ricky's hero is Professor Richard Dawkins, writer of The God Delusion. They are often interviewed together discussing their atheist views.
@@ellie.l6585 Well then! It looks like Ricky and Richard both...will soon have THEIR delusions shattered! Wonder if anyone will say to them--"TOLD YA"!
@@dragonfly9209 😂
this was...advanced for me
I get that. Some are easier to grasp and some harder.
I have an experience that's pretty personal - i struggled with drugs - and had an experience that was pretty profound. This is not some "trip" i had on acid, it was quiet, I was alone, it lasted about an hour. Should I send you a video of the experience? Like me telling the story? I enjoy your channel, it gives me hope when I'm low (struggling with depression.)
Tim A.
I am sure it was pretty life-changing to have an experience like that. Comments are best place to share things.
Thank you Eben for your NDE
Yes, thank you for sharing it with us!
I’m glad you enjoyed it Dinah. Eben had such an interesting experience.
Lisa thanks for watching. Eben’s part two is really interesting. That comes out Thursday.
brilliant... proceeding to the part two
Great to hear Boryagin.
Oh yay I love his story! ❤
Glad to hear Rebecca!

I so appreciate all of this! I go on nature walks often, and it is amazing, to say the least, what comes through as immediate insights into life as conveyed through feelings. Just now, I came up with a analogy to describe these conveyances.
The analogy relates to music in that, when one or more rhythms or beats are played fast enough, we experience that rhythmic information as pitch and harmony. We do not hear the underlying rhythmic information of that pitch and harmony as the discrete beats from which they are constructed. Analogously, when insights and immediate knowing are conveyed through feeling, it is that our consciousness is listening to a harmony that contains a vast amount of wisdom and pieces of awareness. The overall flow these pieces of insight and wisdom are interpreted as feelings. As with the harmony produced from the individual rhythms we hear, we cannot, very well at all, reduce the feelings to absolutely discrete insights which are conveyable with language. The awareness, as encapsulated in the feelings, stands on its own and is a BEAUTIFUL series of moments!
Thank you for having Eben on. He communicates some of the MOST important messages very well!
Can you link a song that demonstrates this effect, it's hard to conceptualize.
I’m really glad you enjoyed it and got so much out of it. Thank you for sharing your insights. ❤️ Make sure to listen to part two.
@@stevew1487 The concept I had used to make the analogy involves our involuntary perception of pitch and harmony as a consequence of *any* repeating pattern of rhythmic information.
"Rhythmic information" is anything that produces high and then low air pressure variations somewhere in space over some amount of time. Maybe it's an audio speaker displacing back and forth to play music, or the membrane of a drum reverberating up and down after having been struck, or human vocal chords vibrating back and forth to produce speech or to sing.
These moving parts each exert force on the nearby air and produce an extremely large number of high and then low changes in the air pressure near to the surface of their movement. Back and forth, back and forth, 100s 1,000s and 10,000s times a second (depending on the type of sounds involved). If these changing pressures of air eventually reach your ear (by propagation through the air ), and IF these changes include any *simple and repeating* pattern of pressure variation, you involuntarily interpret this repeating "rhythmic information" of the sound as being of a certain pitch or having a certain harmony (depending on the complexity of the pattern). The harmony we hear in any music in as little as even a second contains vasts amounts of rhythmic information.
This is to say that whenever you are listening to *any* music, there is a pattern of variation of air pressure that you involuntarily experience as the various harmonies and pitches within the music. We do not hear the individual high and low pressure regions of the air as they touch upon our eardrums. That is, we do not hear the raw "rhythmic information" of the music. Rather, we naturally and involuntarily interpret that rhythmic information as pitch and harmony.
My original intent in using that analogy was to draw an association of our experience of harmony as derived from the raw rhythmic information of music to our experience of feelings as derived from communications with the divine. In the case of music, we cannot and do not write down or granularize, in some other way, the raw pressure variations of air that lead to the experience of harmony. That raw rhythmic information which both describes and defines the music is encapsulated and conveyed to us as we *experience* the harmony. The experience of the harmony is where the meaning is. Likewise, a vast amount of wisdom and insight are encapsulated and conveyed to us as feelings. The feelings conveyed is where the meaning is. It is not possible to reduce these feelings to words and still retain their meaning. The experience of these feelings stand on their own.
@@shortlessonshardquestions8105 Thanks for the detailed explanation. Music is an interesting analogy because the emotion it stirs, if it's elevating music, is not only beyond words, but can mirror the harmony of our own inner being, and I think intuitive inspiration is also harmonizing in that it brings the harmony of the deeper part of ourselves of which we may not normally be aware to the surface and pushes aside the surface superficial thoughts that often have their base in disharmony.
I guess you could say music is harmony flowing from the outside in and intuition is harmony flowing from the inside out. Are you a musician?
@@stevew1487 "music is harmony flowing from the outside in and intuition is harmony flowing from the inside out." That is excellent! I will remember it.
Yes, I am a musician. I enjoy playing the piano and singing. I play fingerstyle guitar as well. I do those things everyday. I feel the process of working with music is filled with purpose and meaning.
I have concerns that some (quite a lot actually) of Dr. Eben's statements contradict biblical teachings. While I don't doubt his personal experiences, I do question his ability to interpret and make sense of them, particularly given his unorthodox meditation practices. As a result, I approach his claims with a healthy dose of skepticism.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this.
I never completely understood and probably never will but in the Our father “hallowed be thy name”. I think it’s referenced in the Sounds that Eben refers to.
@asrmartins9736
I was raised a Presbyterian, went to church for 20 yrs, went to numerous Bible studies and read the Bible from Genesis to Revelations, yet having watched over 1,000 NDEs of atheists, agnostics and people from all different faiths going to the other side and finding out that God doesn't judge you like the Bible says, nor do you have to believe that Christ died for your sins to be saved, you begin to realize that maybe not everything in the Bible is correct.
Perhaps you’re simply misinterpreting the scriptures.
And this guy wasn't even dead, unlike most of the NDE book-writers.
thanks for your thoughts
Made it.
Thanks for letting me know David!
seems phony
Thanks for your opinion. I have met Eben and I don’t get that impression at all.
@@Beyond_with_Heather_Tesch most NDErs are surely genuine, not this one it seems
Agree. Can't answer a question
