By the mid-19th century, however, spurred by science's progress, many began to question the existence of an afterlife. Materialist doctrine--which sees consciousness as a creation of the brain--began to spread. Now, armed with scientific evidence, Chris Carter challenges materialist arguments against consciousness surviving death & shows how near-death experiences (NDEs) may provide glimpses of an afterlife. Using evidence from scientific studies, quantum mechanics & consciousness research, he reveals how consciousness doesn't depend on the brain & may survive bodily death. Examining ancient & modern accounts of NDEs from sources including China, India & tribal societies such as the Native American & the Maori, he explains how NDEs provide evidence of consciousness surviving death. He looks at many psychological & physiological explanations for NDEs raised by skeptics--such as stress, birth memories or oxygen starvation--& shows why each of them fails to explain the NDE. Exploring the similarities between NDEs & visions experienced during actual death & the intersection of physics & consciousness, he uncovers truths about mind, matter & life after death.

    A lie I needed to tell in order to make sure he hired me. If anyone knew the truth about my past, I’d probably never get hired for anything again. But trying to mislead Xander Bradford is pretty much pointless. The man is a machine in every way – he’s just a few years older than me, and yet he’s running a powerful biotech company worth billions of dollars. The stories of Xander’s romantic life are as legendary as his rise in the medical field. Pick any gorgeous celebrity—actress, model, singer—and he’s pretty much guaranteed to have bedded her, the proof splashed across every page of the tabloids. Meanwhile, I’m a total romantic novice. I had no time for guys while I was concentrating so hard on my education. Of course, that was before I got kicked out of med school, the one thing I was ever any good at… Apparently I haven’t learned my lesson, because now I’ve messed up again, and Xander has caught me. Little do I know that his way of dealing with my untruth will be to slowly torment me with his charisma, his charm, his ability to make me scream his name in bed. He will teach me everything about my body, and destroy everything I thought I knew about my mind and soul. Because as it turns out, the ultimate punishment for my crimes might just be losing Xander Bradford forever…

    Their methods of self-reliance and their sublime knowledge profoundly impacted society, such that the dominant powers felt threatened and the tradition was forced to disappear from public view. Now, after centuries of obscurity, the Gnostics have re-emerged, still carrying their profound message of Gnosis: knowledge of self and the Divine. In a simple and elegant way, Samael Aun Weor explains the basic methodology for people in today's world to begin to approach the greater mysteries of the Gnostics. In this basic and practical guide, Samael Aun Weor offers a breadth of exercises guiding the reader to discover within themselves a wealth of insight and understanding. Gnosis, after all, is Greek for "knowledge," and the seeker is told, "Know thyself, and thou shalt know the universe and its Gods." "A great author deduced that the human being needs eight important things in life: health and the conservation of life, nourishment, sleep, money and the things money can buy, life in the beyond, sexual satisfaction, the well-being of his children, and a sense of proper importance. We synthesize these eight things into three: Health, Money, Love. If you really want to acquire these three things, you should study and practice everything that this course teaches you. We will show you the path of success." - Samael Aun Weor
