Scientists: ‘We’ll soon find out what happens after death’

Leading expert on near-death experiences, Dr Sam Parnia, believes we will soon learn what happens after death. He has studied cardiac arrest survivors and claims they have seen “light at the end of the tunnel.”

Parnia believes that our consciousness is not part of our brain and does not die when we die, reports dailystar.co.uk.

He says: “I think in 50 or 100 years time we will have discovered the entity that is consciousness. It will be taken for granted that it wasn’t produced by the brain, and it doesn’t die when you die.”

Other experts agree with Parnia. Leading critical care medicine expert Dr. Lance Becker says, “I don’t think there has ever been a more exciting time for the field. We’re discovering new drugs, we’re discovering new devices, and we’re discovering new things about the brain.”

Dr. Jimo Borjigin, a professor of neurology at the University of Michigan found evidence of electrical activity in the brain after death.

She says: “I believe what we found is only the tip of a vast iceberg. What’s still beneath the surface is a full account of how dying actually takes place.

“Because there’s something happening in there, in the brain, that makes no sense.”

According to surveys, every tenth person claims to have been on the verge of death. That’s approximately 800 million people worldwide who may have touched the afterlife.

Discoveries in the field of near-death experiences raise questions about what happens after death. Perhaps we will soon learn that life really continues after death.
