A famous neurosurgeon from the United States, who woke up from a coma, claimed that he met his sister in the afterlife. About this report Daily mail.
Eben Alexander, 72, a physician and lecturer at Harvard Medical School, has been a skeptic about after-death experiences for most of his life. In 2008, he fell ill with viral meningitis, leading to serious complications. Doctors put him in a coma in hopes of saving his life. For seven days, his brain was completely inactive.
According to Alexander, during this period his consciousness was transferred to another world, which he called paradise. The journey begins in a “primal darkness,” then he enters a valley of extraordinary beauty with picturesque waterfalls, music, and an all-encompassing feeling of connection. “I felt like a piece of consciousness on the wing of a butterfly, among millions of other butterflies fluttering,” he recalls. His guide in this world is a woman with extremely kind blue eyes. “You are loved and cherished, darling, and always will be. You have nothing to fear,” she told him telepathically.
A week later the doctor regained consciousness. Alexander was adopted as a child and found his biological parents as an adult. At the same time, he was unable to see his sister Betsy again, who had passed away several years earlier. A few months after he woke up and miraculously made a full recovery, the first time he saw a photo of Betsy, he realized she was the woman who guided him. For him, this became irrefutable proof of the reality of what he had experienced, forcing him to reconsider all scientific dogmas. He now firmly believes that consciousness exists independently of the brain.
It was previously reported that a resident of England said that when she was a teenager, she had an accident and found herself in the other world for four minutes. “What I actually saw was my own life flashing before my eyes. It was very, very fast, there were so many wonderful memories of me at different ages,” she explained.
