DVD 31 - Claude Swanson PhD - What NDE's can Teach Science

 

These are just a few of the areas where new research is defying the old beliefs of conventional science. It points the way to a new, expanded science which, instead of denying the role of consciousness and spirit, begins to integrate these forces into a larger, more highly evolved and integrated world view. The truly "unified field theory" must explain and understand both science and consciousness. In doing so, it begins to heal the ancient rift between science and spirituality. And in the last chapter of the book, he proposes some ways to modify and expand present science to begin to achieve these goals.

Some of the best proven paranormal phenomena are those of ESP, remote viewing, psychokinesis, and some group consciousness experiments. There are also rigorous experiments showing that energy healing has real benefit, although as with all the paranormal forces, our science does not understand the nature of the force. Evidence is also described for astral or out of body travel, the near-death experience, levitation and teleportation. Certain gifted individuals have been able to master these forces and produce them at will. They are known as "adepts" and are also discussed in the book. In modern times a tradition still exists of the yogi, India's "spiritual superman," who evokes some of these powers. The tradition and methods of training and development of these abilities is also described.
