Christian Clergy Sharing Group (private)

A group for Christian clergy and Christian chaplains, certified by their professional association, who are interested in near-death and other mystical experiences. This meeting will not be recorded. It will be 90-minutes of pastoral conversation.  

First Monday of each month at 1 pm ET • 12 pm CT • 11 am MT • 10 am PT

This is a group for Christian clergy and Christian chaplains, certified by their professional association, who have had or are interested in, near-death and other mystical experiences. We will explore the message and works of Jesus in light of these experiences. How do we integrate them into our spiritual journeys? How do we help our congregations integrate them? How do they enhance our call as Christians and as clergy? How do they help our congregations? Was Jesus perhaps trying to help us see a greater reality to which these experiences point?

These experiences are very common. You likely have many sitting in your pews who’ve had them, yet are hesitant to share. It’s important that clergy be experts in pastorally assisting the integration of the ultimate.

Jewish Experience Group

Are you Jewish and wonder how or if your NDE or other Spiritually Transformative Experience aligns with your faith? Are you struggling to integrate your experience? Come explore these questions with others having similar concerns. While this Sharing Session contains Jewish content, it is open to all who have a desire to join us.

The 1st Sunday of every month at 4 pm ET.

The “Jewish Experience Sharing Group” is a sharing group for those in, or from, a Jewish community who have had, or are interested in near-death or similar experiences. Non-Jewish people are also welcome to join us as well to learn about Jewish perspectives.

For some experiencers, it’s helpful to consider issues of having a Jewish background when discussing their NDE/STE. This group allows a safe place for those types of discussions. There will be time to share your experiences, challenges, joys, and dreams.

We understand attendees of this group may come from many different Jewish traditions, other faith traditions, or none at all. We commit to respecting all who attend this group, knowing each person holds their own personal perspectives and beliefs.

This is a safe place of non-judgment. There is also no proselytizing. The group will explore the meaning and purpose of NDEs and how to integrate them by understanding the Jewish values implicit in the experience. Each person’s NDE or spiritually transformative experience is unique, and Rabbi Steve will help you find the hidden core of your soul’s purpose contained in the experience of the NDE.

Kabbalah, contemporary psychology, and brain science will provide a deeper understanding of the role of your physical being in this world and how leaving this world is not death, but transformation into another stage of living. Together we will support each other as we move to greater insights and application of the wisdom which will be revealed to all of us in these sessions

It is important to know:

    • No one will know you attended, except those in your group. Your privacy is protected.
    • These meetings are never recorded.
    • Trained IANDS volunteers facilitate the group to ensure a safe and welcoming environment.
    • You do not have to share. You can listen with your video off for as long as you wish to do so. You are welcome to share when you are ready, even if that takes months or years to achieve.

These sharing groups are free to everyone! We are a non-profit. Donations provide the funding to support the technology that runs these groups. If you are able to make a donation, it would be greatly appreciated. We thank you in advance for your kind and generous donations.

He is a Clinical Psychologist with a specialty in the Psychoneuroimmunology of trauma and brain development. He integrates science and mysticism into a unified system of human development. This system is particularly applied to those with NDEs. Rabbi Robbins has had 8 NDEs as well as 13 surgeries and multiple STEs. His work focuses on the positive messages he has received from his spiritual guides through his 8 NDEs. Many Jews who have had transformative experiences do not know how to deal with them. He works to provide, through his insights, support, and guidance for others to find the deeper meanings through the uniquely Jewish concepts of eternal living, both in this world and the worlds to come.

Near-Death Experience Symposium Europe and Africa

This Symposium gives a combination of 4 real Near-Death Experiences from Europe and 2 scientists giving their view on NDEs. One scientist is from Italy, Piero Calvi Parisetti, and he will talk about evidence of survival of human personality after physical death. The other scientist is from Germany and will make the link between NDEs and the interesting and mysterious aspects of quantum mechanics.

Pricing is $22.00 for this special event. IANDS Supporting Level members receive a 50% discount.

Two scientists will share their thoughts about NDEs. Dr Vera Spilner is a quantum mechanics expert and will make a link between NDEs and the interesting and mysterious aspects of quantum mechanics. Dr Piero Calvi Parisetti is a researcher at the parapsychology department of the University of Northampton (UK) and will be talking about evidence pointing to the survival of human personality after bodily death. Then there will be 4 near-death experiencers from different counties in Europe telling their story. In a panel discussion, questions will be answered from the people attending the symposium.

The four NDErs are Johnny Fredrikson (Sweden), Jeanette Hedström (Sweden), Harald Harbers (the Netherlands), Mette Thygesen (Denmark)

The Symposium is 4 hours (with a few short breaks) online via ZOOM, on Saturday, November 1, 2025. It is in English. The start is at:
 14:00 Brussels (CET) EU
 13:00 London (GMT) UK
 3:00 PM Jo’burg (SAST) SA
 9:00 AM (EDT) US

About the two scientific speakers:

Prof. Vera Spillner, PhD, is a trained theoretical physicist (studies in Heidelberg, Minneapolis (USA) as a Fulbright scholar, and Berlin, graduating with a Diploma in String Theory) and philosopher (PhD from the University of Bonn on the Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics). She is Professor of Media Studies at Media University in Stuttgart, Germany. Her work explores the intersections of science, philosophy, and human experience, with a particular focus on near-death experiences. In her upcoming talk, she will explore the concepts of Oneness and Timelessness – well known in modern physics – and their striking parallels in NDE reports, inviting an open dialogue between disciplines. 

Piero Calvi Parisetti

Author of bestselling books and internationally renowned speaker, Piero Calvi Parisetti is first and foremost a researcher at the Department of Parapsychology at the University of Northampton.  A medical doctor specializing in public health, he taught for almost twenty years at various universities in Italy, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. He then devoted himself passionately to the study of the evidence for what he himself calls “the incredible truth”, namely the fact that, in a way that we do not yet understand, the human mind and personality seem to survive the death of the body. A member of the Parapsychological Association, the Society for Psychical Research and the Scientific and Medical Network, Dr. Calvi Parisetti is considered one of the world’s leading experts in the subject of clinical applications of parapsychological research. He lives with his wife in Troon, on the west coast of Scotland.
