0:00.0	there's a stronger message coming along with eternal lucidity, and it aligns, I think, better
0:06.0	with a near-death experience. So in other words, something happens, which clearly is physiological,
0:12.9	somebody is close to dying, and that of course does something to the body. But does it therefore
0:17.8	explain the eternal lucid episode?
0:21.2	I don't think so because it contradicts almost everything we know
0:25.0	about the dependency of mind on brain
0:27.5	that when the brain is so severely dysfunctional,
0:30.5	that suddenly somebody would rise up again, be here again.
0:40.6	Hi, I'm Dr. Amy Robbins, and welcome to life, death, and the space between.
0:46.5	I'm very excited to welcome back my guest today, although you might be wondering, you might think,
0:52.9	why is he back?
0:55.2	We never heard him the first time, And that's because my Zoom video disappeared with this interview. However, it was such a
1:02.8	great interview and such an important topic that I was lucky enough that Dr. Alexander Batyani agreed to

1:14.9	Research Institute for Theoretical Psychology and Professional Studies at Posmani Peter University
1:22.5	in Budapest. And he's a professor of existential psychotherapy at the Moscow Institute of
1:30.7	Psychoanalysis in, where is that? Oh, Moscow, obviously, in Russia. And the director of the
1:37.8	and the director of the Victor Frankel Institute in Vienna. And today he is here to talk about his book on terminal lucidity.
1:48.5	So it's such an important topic.
1:50.4	And I think it gives us so much information about consciousness and the mind and the brain that it felt like such a perfect fit for this podcast.
1:58.1	So thank you and welcome back.
1:59.9	Thank you for having me again. It's a pleasure
