Dr. Eben Alexander had one of the most astonishing Near Death Experiences. Today he deeply believes in an afterlife, but for most of his life he didn’t believe in any kind of God or a soul. This is the story of his incredible journey to the afterlife and how he was changed forever.

Dr. Eben Alexander was a neurosurgeon who spent 15 years as an associate professor at Harvard Medical school. After operating on countless patients, he came to believe that the brain is really just a kind of machine. And that when the brain dies, everything about who we are disappears along with it. This is a worldview often called materialism, which leaves no room for a soul or for any kind of consciousness that survives after we die.

But all this changed after he was infected with a rare form of bacterial meningitis that put him in a coma. In his book “Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife” he describes how bacteria attacked his brain, and completely shut down some of the most important functions we think of as making us human. The real mystery is that our current scientific understanding of the brain tells us that Eben shouldn’t have been able to perceive anything at all. And yet, somehow, he had the most vivid and elaborate experience of his life.

This is the story of how he crossed over, and visited a world so real that it makes the one we’re living in now seem like a dream by comparison.
