NDEs are powerful, transformative experiences. In fact, if everyone had one, it is easy to imagine the world quickly transitioning away from its current materialism focus towards a far healthier and happier understanding that we are parts of an interconnected whole.

Dr. Alexander is a globally renowned academic neurosurgeon who also benefited from a life-changing near-death experience in 2008 due to severe bacterial meningoencephalitis that should have allowed for no dream or hallucination. His experience challenged everything he had been taught by materialist neuroscience. He has spent the 15+ years since his experience working with other scientists and experiencers around the world to hone a more complete scientific worldview, one that honors the unified nature of a primordial mind and our ability as sentient beings to manifest the world of our dreams.

Death is inevitable, but how we approach it makes all the difference. Most people fear the dying process—not only because of physical pain, but because of the deep existential distress that comes with losing control, identity, and meaning. In this powerful webinar, psychospiritual therapist and near-death experiencer David Maginley will guide you through the nature of end-of-life suffering, revealing how the ego resists its own deconstruction and why surrender is the key to peace. You’ll discover how nearing-death awareness offers a profound transpersonal experience—one that opens the door to transformation rather than fear. Whether you’re facing your own mortality, supporting a loved one, working in end-of-life care, or simply curious about your final trip, this talk will change the way you see death and help you prepare for it with wisdom, resilience, and even awe.
The researchers, Ph.D. academics, and Medical Doctors of the CCRI
organization propose two major hypotheses:
1) That Consciousness, our Greater Multidimensional Reality, is
“Fundamental” and not our perceived physical reality; and
2) That all of the paranormal Contact Modalities, need to be perceived as ONE
integrated phenomenon under Consciousness, and not as separate and distinct
phenomena.

As a priest for 28 years, Stephanie Bradbury has counseled more than a few parishioners who have had Spiritually Transformative Experiences (STEs) and/or Near-Death Experiences (NDEs). Rather than threaten our faith, she says, such experiences actually serve to revitalize it. On Wednesday, February 12, at 7:00 pm Central Time (8:00 pm Eastern Time), she will join us live via Zoom from her home in Massachusetts to relate several of these stories shared with her by regular Christians – including one of her own – and connect them to scripture. Together, we will reflect on how they reaffirm some existing beliefs as well as inspire new ways of thinking about Christianity and religion in general. Bring your curiosity and your questions for Stephanie, and join us for what promises to be a thought-provoking and uplifting evening.

What happens when a person dies – especially if that person lived a self-centered life? What do second chances and spiritual growth look like in the afterlife? Although not a near-death experiencer (NDEr) himself, Sheldon Lawrence answered those questions in his book Heaven Will Find You by consulting hundreds of NDEs. Experiencer Tricia Barker considers Sheldon’s book to accurately depict not only aspects of her own NDE but also what she knows from talking with many other NDErs. In this event, Tricia and IANDS President Jan Holden will interview Sheldon about how he prepared to write his book; surprises and challenges he encountered along the way; and how accurately he, personally, believes his book depicts the afterlife. Spoiler alert: In this interview, the plot of the book will be revealed, so attendees will most enjoy this event who have read Heaven Will Find You ahead of time. This event will end with Q&A with the audience.

Join us for part 4 of Mas Sajady’s 5-part workshop series, focusing on success.
Many of us strive for physical wealth or success, thinking that it will bring us security and fulfillment, though most people who do attain worldly success still aren’t happy. Your level of success is determined by how close you are to present moment time or how you render yourself in space and time. True abundance in all areas of life is a natural consequence of connecting with your Source or Limitless Self – It is your birthright.
In this workshop, Mas will help you to remove filters that are blocking your success and teach you how to render yourself correctly in this dimension, which will allow you to effortlessly generate abundance in your life.

Hear multi-NDEr Bob Russell talk about his NDEs, the blue lady, other dimensions and his experience with Jesus. Bob’s 1st NDE was a drowning at age 10 yrs. old but his 2nd NDE at 19 yrs. old really blew open the doors of perception for his soul. That led him to the ashram of Swami Jyotirmayananda doing 40 hours/week of non-duality spiritual discipline trying to realize what he had perceived and received during his 2nd NDE. Realizations continued and Bob also learned from the several others helping Bob reach higher levels of daily meditation. Bob has had a total of 7 NDEs and 1 DE, countless STEs and OBEs and relived many past lives.

Part 1-Consciousness
Your consciousness dictates what you experience in this life and how you experience it. As such, this workshop lays the foundation for the following sessions.

This higher level consciousness will then begin to filter into and transform every area of your life, so that you have the opportunity to reach your full human potential.

Have you ever wondered if…
There are people you are supposed to meet?
There is a soul mate or partner just for you?
You have a purpose or mission?
Things in your life are not a coincidence?
Someone is helping you?
You can sense them but not see them?
Your life was planned out before you got here?
Helpers exist or am I in this game of life all alone?
