Through The Tunnel & Beyond:
40 Years of Near Death Research

 
All workshops require a Day Pass to attend.

What do we know about life after death? And how do we know it? Or, rather, can we know anything about life after death? Heraclitus, Plato, Hume, and other great philosophers said that the question is ultimately unfathomable. That is, they said that this particular mystery may be beyond the reach of rational knowledge. But, even if they are right, can we correct the situation? Can we develop new methods of rational investigation suitable to the question of life after death?

It is not possible to rethink rational inquiry into this mystery without reconnecting with the ancient Greek philosophers. They were the first men to apply rational methods to consider the fate of the conscious self upon physical death. In fact, at that time, most people identified philosophy with curiosity about that mystery in particular.

Some wonder about the prospect of an afterlife from early childhood. However, in many cases, people begin to ponder this question only in the wake of losing loved ones to death. Or, they begin to wonder about it as age encroaches.

A rational proof of an afterlife would transform the nature of logic itself—and the mind!

Join Raymond Moody in this in depth worskhop where we will look at the near death and life after death research and philosophy, spending time looking at the Greek philosophers and bringing ourselves to our present understanding of death, near death, and the afterlife.

Raymond Moody is the leading authority on the ‘near-death experience’—a phrase he coined in the late seventies. Dr. Moody’s research into the phenomenon of near-death experience had its start in the 1960’s. Dr Moodyis a best-selling author of eleven books including Life After Life—which has sold over 13 million copies world wide—and Reunions, as well as numerous articles in academic and professional literature. He has appeared three times on Oprah, as well as on hundreds of other local and nationally syndicated programs such as MSNBC: Grief Recovery, NBC Today, ABC’s Turning Point, Donahue, Sally Jessy Raphael Show, Geraldo, and The Joan Rivers Show.
