NDE Study, "AWARENESS" finally published

2/19/2016

The results of a large study called “AWARENESS”, conducted and designed by Sam Parnia Of the Stony Brook University, a believer that NDE are glimpses of the here- after, has finally been published. This study did not rely on testimonies alone, but also on hidden images and objects which could not been seen by patients on the operating table but could be seen by out of body instances, where the body floated up to heaven and other methods. This awareness study, launched in 2008. supposedly indicated that NDS were real but his conclusions are called pseudo science  by others. Neurologist Michael O’Brian wrote: “most people would not find it necessary to postulate such a separation between mind and brain to explain the events," and suggested that further research is likely to provide a physical explanation for near-death experiences ”
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Parnia#AWAreness_during_REsuscitation_.28AWARE.29_study )and the study was also debunked in http://web.randi.org/swift/no-this-study-is-not-evidence-for-life-after-death

If patients could see this and reported on it, we could assume that awareness existed out side the brain during cardiac arrest, although actual death was not achieved because the patient was resuscitated.  To the disappointment of the lead researcher, no evidence of NDEs being awareness without a functioning brain, was observed. Sam Parnia tried very hard to explain the results away, but actually admitted that any of the results could be contributed to confabulation. Many recognized valid psychological experiments have shown that our brain will fill in gaps in your memory upon recovery, any way it can (confabulation). It will make up memories, fill in details obtained at other times in reality or dreams and change them to fit a memory of what happened with the patient absolutely believing these memories. Conclusion: The study is a bust to NDEs being actual events.
