Consciousness Beyond Life
Author: Pim van Lommel
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061777269
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
As a cardiologist, Pim van Lommel was struck by the number of his patients who claimed to have near-death experiences as a result of their heart attacks. As a scientist, this was difficult for him to accept: Wouldn't it be scientifically irresponsible of him to ignore the evidence of these stories? Faced with this dilemma, van Lommel decided to design a research study to investigate the phenomenon under the controlled environment of a cluster of hospitals with a medically trained staff. For more than twenty years van Lommel systematically studied such near-death experiences in a wide variety of hospital patients who survived a cardiac arrest. In 2001, he and his fellow researchers published his study on near-death experiences in the renowned medical journal The Lancet. The article caused an international sensation as it was the first scientifically rigorous study of this phenomenon. Now available for the first time in English, van Lommel offers an in-depth presentation of his results and theories in this book that has already sold over 125,000 copies in Europe. Van Lommel provides scientific evidence that the near-death phenomenon is an authentic experience that cannot be attributed to imagination, psychosis, or oxygen deprivation. He further reveals that after such a profound experience, most patients' personalities undergo a permanent change. In van Lommel's opinion, the current views on the relationship between the brain and consciousness held by most physicians, philosophers, and psychologists are too narrow for a proper understanding of the phenomenon. In Consciousness Beyond Life, van Lommel shows that our consciousness does not always coincide with brain functions and that, remarkably and significantly, consciousness can even be experienced separate from the body.

Anyone interested in the act of writing and publishing will find an amusing and thought-provoking discussion in Beyond Life. JAMES BRANCH CABELL, a native of Richmond, Virginia, wrote more than fifty books. He is best known for his novel Jurgen, which he wrote in 1919, and his octodecalogy, Biography of the Life of Manuel, which features the mythical world of Poictesme and the castle Storisende. His writing features many anagrams, puns, and wordplay, features that have made him a cult figure to many readers. The Virginia Commonwealth University established the James Branch Cabell Library in 1970.

Wild Spectacle
Author: Janisse Ray
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595349588
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Looking for adventure and continuing a process of self-discovery, Janisse Ray has repeatedly set out to immerse herself in wildness, to be wild, and to learn what wildness can teach us. From overwintering with monarch butterflies in Mexico to counting birds in Belize, the stories in Wild Spectacle capture her luckiest moments—ones of heart-pounding amazement, discovery of romance, and moving toward living more wisely. In Ray’s worst moments she crosses boundaries to encounter danger and embrace sadness. Anchored firmly in two places Ray has called home—Montana and southern Georgia—the sixteen essays here span a landscape from Alaska to Central America, connecting common elements in the ecosystems of people and place. One of her abiding griefs is that she has missed the sights of explorers like Bartram, Sacagawea, and Carver: flocks of passenger pigeons, routes of wolves, herds of bison. She craves a wilder world and documents encounters that are rare in a time of disappearing habitat, declining biodiversity, and a world too slowly coming to terms with climate change. In an age of increasingly virtual, urban life, Ray embraces the intentionality of trying to be a better person balanced with seeking out natural spectacle, abundance, and less trammeled environments. She questions what it means to travel into the wild as a woman, speculates on the impacts of ecotourism and travel in general, questions assumptions about eating from the land, and appeals to future generations to make substantive change. Wild Spectacle explores our first home, the wild earth, and invites us to question its known and unknown beauties and curiosities.

Road to the Heaven and Beyond Life
Author:
Publisher: Kichoo, Lim 임기추
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
I have witnessed the so called world of self-realization hundreds of thousands times, or even a million times. I will continue to discard my memories, and erase the karma of my memories and habits that I have accumulated during my life. By discarding all my memories from my life, I hope to be born again into a world where I am disconnected from life or the world, where only the true self exists without holding any of the self in a human’s mind, the heaven. I was introduced to Maum Meditation by my elder brother in November 2003. I discard all my emotions, joy, happiness, sorrow and anger into the black hole. In my mind, all the karma that I have gathered during my life is discarded into the black hole. In my mind, I sit on the summit of Moak Mountain, and also on the summit of my hometown mountain, dispatching all my memories into the black hole. I discard all my momentary memories into the black hole. Until I remember nothing, I discard all my memories into the black hole from the clusters of galaxies, Venus, and Uranus. I even discard the earth, sun and moon into the black hole as soon as they come to my mind. And I even blast away the black hole as soon as it comes up. Until nothing occurs and bugs my mind all the memories are discarded into the original universe of the creator of this before all things.
