December 11, 1953
Eben Alexander III is an American neurosurgeon who delves into profound questions of consciousness and the afterlife. His work explores the possibility that consciousness exists independently of the brain, challenging the traditional scientific understanding of the brain as the sole generator of our perception. Alexander's perspective stems from his personal near-death experience, which led him to believe that consciousness survives bodily death. His writing encourages readers to contemplate the nature of reality and the possibilities of existence beyond our current comprehension.

The groundbreaking, bestselling classic, now available in a special fortieth-anniversary edition that includes a new Foreword from Eben Alexander, M.D., author of Proof of Heaven, and a new Afterword by the author. Raymond Moody is the “father” of the modern NDE (Near Death Experience) movement, and his pioneering work Life After Life transformed the world, revolutionizing the way we think about death and what lies beyond. Originally published in 1975, it is the groundbreaking study of one hundred people who experienced “clinical death” and were revived, and who tell, in their own words, what lies beyond death. A smash bestseller that has sold more than thirteen million copies around the globe, Life After Life introduced us to concepts—including the bright light, the tunnel, the presence of loved ones waiting on the other side—that have become cultural memes today, and paved the way for modern bestsellers by Eben Alexander, Todd Burpo, Mary Neal, and Betty Eadie that have shaped countless readers notions about the end life and the meaning of death.
Pourquoi sommes-nous là ? Y a-t-il une vie après la vie ? La conscience dépend-elle du cerveau ou d'un état supérieur au-delà de l'état physique ? Que peut apporter la science sur le vaste sujet de la conscience de l'âme ? Si nous savions tous que notre vie sur la planète Terre n'était qu'Une parmi de nombreuses autres, que ferions-nous différemment ? Quelles implications cette connaissance aurait-elle sur le quotidien, sur le monde ? Réalisé au domicile du Dr Alexander en Virginie et construit autour de la propre expérience de ce dernier - un coma profond durant lequel il a vécu une Expérience de mort imminente -, ce film, dont les propos sont retranscrits intégralement dans le livre, nous invite à participer à une conversation des plus captivantes entre le Dr Eben Alexander et le Dr Raymond Moody. Riche, authentique et intense, il aborde les grands sujets existentiels qui nous concernent tous et capture ce quelque chose que chacun de nous peut connaître de la nature divine, qui est de l'ordre du ressenti et s'exprime bien au-delà des mots.
The author Proof of Heaven teams up with the sages of times past, modern scientists, and with ordinary people who have had profound spiritual experiences to show the reality of heaven and our true identities as spiritual beings.
