Near-Death Experience (NDE) Meeting

Description

It wasn’t long after the term “near-death experience” was coined that these remarkable life-changing events were challenged by skeptics who presented wide-ranging alternative explanations.

But do their arguments hold up? This month we’ll present a video recording of Dr. Bruce Greyson’s memorable speech at the 2006 IANDS Conference.

In this hour-long address, Dr. Greyson puts virtually every proposed alternative explanation of near-death experiences under the microscope.

Is the NDE a result of individual psychological conditions like depersonalization? Are they fantasies? Are they caused by hypoxia or hypercarbia? Are they biochemical? Or caused by REM intrusion? Are out-of-body experiences simply illusions?

No one is more qualified to analyze these theories than Dr. Greyson. A founding member of IANDS, Dr. Greyson served as editor of the Journal of Near-Death Studies for more than 20 years.

His research for the past three decades has focused on the aftereffects of near-death experiences and has resulted in more than 70 presentations to national scientific conferences, and more than 100 publications in academic, medical, and psychological journals. He is currently a psychiatry professor and Director, University of Virginia Health System.
