Consciousness and NDE

Dr Pim Van Lommel’s take on

Consciousness and NDE

An interview by Iain McNay

Dr Pim Van Lommel has gained a reputation for his knowledge and research into NDE (near-death experience) and so has authority on the subject of consciousness and NDE.

He worked as a cardiologist in the Netherlands and in 1986 became interested in near-death experiences in patients who survived a cardiac arrest.

In 2007 he published his book, Consciousness Beyond Life: The Science of the Near-Death Experience.

In this interview he looks in detail into what actually happens in people’s experiences during a NDE, and how it can dramatically change their lives. It raises such fundamental questions as: ‘Where is Consciousness located?’ ‘What Happens when we die’ ‘Who am I?’
