Summary

In today’s episode, Michael welcomes Dr. Eben Alexander. Eben, an academic neurosurgeon whose transcendental Near-Death Experience (NDE) transformed his materialist worldview, is a pioneering scientist and modern thought leader in the emerging science that acknowledges the primacy of consciousness in the Universe, and is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Proof of Heaven, The Map of Heaven, and Living in a Mindful Universe.

During their amazing conversation, Michael and Eben chat about:

–Eben’s NDE during his week-long coma and what he discovered about life as a result

–The differences between materialism and quantum physics in understanding life and consciousness, and debunking the idea that consciousness is located in the brain

–The plethora of global research revealing that NDEs are not dreams or hallucinations as suggested

–The big message for all of humanity from those who’ve had miraculous recoveries after being close to death or surviving NDEs which all of us can discover through meditation – and so much more!

Next, Michael concludes with a brief guided meditation.

0:00.0	So you're now speaking about the fact that consciousness precedes the brain.
0:06.4	It's not necessarily, brain is not producing consciousness.
0:09.9	And this is what from a materialist, you went all the way to the other spectrum.
0:15.0	Well, that is true.
0:16.1	And it turns out that's where the scientific community is headed on this.
0:20.1	Yeah.
0:20.3	You know, neuroscience and
0:21.6	materialist science have never come up with any kind of linkage to explain how consciousness
0:28.2	might arise in the brain. In fact, what they try and do is tell you it's all chemical reactions,
0:34.1	electron fluxes, of material substance following the laws of physics, chemistry, biology.
0:40.2	So, but quantum indeterminacy is what changes all this. Quantum physics completely upends
0:46.6	materialist science. And that's why it's so beautiful that the Nobel Prize in physics in 2022
0:53.2	was given for entanglement.
0:55.4	Entanglement is the most prominent feature of the mystery of quantum physics,
1:00.8	and it's right at the forefront of demonstrating the primacy of mind throughout the universe.
1:06.7	They were really working with one mind.
1:09.3	Peace and Rich's blessings.
1:10.6	I am Michael B. Beckwith, the host of Take Back Your Mind. Peace and blessings. Peace and blessings, everyone.
1:28.3	Peace and blessings, everyone.
1:45.5	I am Michael Beckwith, your host of Take Back Your Mind, where we have a weekly conversation
1:52.5	with individuals who have in some way shape or another or assisting us to take back our
1:59.5	mind, expand our consciousness, our awareness, open our hearts,
