Top 5 Phenomena That Offer Evidence For An Afterlife

In the modern age, the debate over the possibility that our consciousness might survive the physical death of our body is often reduced to a false dichotomy of science vs religion.

As such, scientists sadly often ignore and ridicule reports of strange phenomena from those who have approached, and in some cases gone beyond, the threshold of death, even though such experiences have a profound effect upon those who undergo them.

Do these phenomena offer evidence that we might live on in some way past the demise of our physical selves? Here's a list of five areas, taken from the book Stop Worrying! There Probably is an Afterlife, which suggest that it might just be so...

What Are the Secrets of Longevity?

By Denise Winterman
Source: BBC News Magazine

The quest to live longer is one of humanity's oldest dreams and three isolated communities seem to have stumbled across the answer. So what can they teach us about a longer life?

Something remarkable links the remote Japanese island of Okinawa, the small Sardinian mountain town of Ovodda and Loma Linda in the US. People live longer in these three places than anywhere else on earth.
At an age when the average Briton is predicted to die - 77 years for men and 81 for women - inhabitants of these three places are looking forward to many more years of good health. Often they're still working in jobs as demanding as heart surgery.

Okinawa has a population of one million and of those 900 are centenarians, four times higher than the average in Britain or America. Even more remarkably, Ovodda is the only region in the world where as many men as women live to be 100 years of age, bucking the global trend.

But what is even more intriguing is that each community is distinct from the others and raises a different theory as to why residents live longer. In all three communities scientists have dedicated themselves to trying to uncover these unique secrets. So what can we learn from the towns where people live the longest?

Your Brain Sees What It Is Programmed To See

The brain is a hunk of flesh. Amazing transceiver, but working on the fleshly side, like our bodies. It interprets. It is not spirit, it is alive but not life. It is not perception, in any way, shape or form. Yet it perceives at its own level.

We, however, are consciousness. And here we have bodies with brains.

In our current form, our nervous system consists of our brains, our spinal cord, and all the attached nerves, however complex and energetic it may be. It works for us, not us for it. The two ARE separable. We joined up when we arrived, and we'll detach when we leave.

The heart and other chakras are more spiritual centers. Right now we're talking brain and central nervous system.

Bizarre Experiments with Telepathic Dogs

By Nick Redfern, Author of The World's Weirdest Places

For decades, the US Defense intelligence Agency has delved deep into the mysterious worlds of psychic phenomena, extra-sensory perception, and the paranormal powers of the human brain.

But the DIA has also focused on the mind-skills of other living creatures beyond just us, the Human Race. Dogs have been a particular favorite of the DIA, and even more so the many psychic hounds of the former Soviet Union.

It was 1975 when the strange canine caper kicked-off, and, unsurprisingly, it was initiated to try and secretly determine if studying the presumed supernatural skills of Soviet dogs might provide the US Government with some sort of military-based and espionage-themed advantage over the Russians.

Stroke Turns Man Gay

Following a stroke, Chris Birch's personality and sexuality altered dramatically. Now he is trying to rediscover who he is and why these changes may have happened.

"It's like looking at somebody else, but with my face only younger, and in all fairness, if I met myself I'd probably carry on walking."

Looking at past pictures of himself, 27-year-old Chris Birch struggles to remember or identify with his old self. He used to be a 19-stone, beer-swilling, party-loving rugby fan from the Welsh valleys, the life and soul of a party. He worked in a bank and loved sport and motorbikes.

After a freak accident in 2011, he says he underwent a big change to his personality. He believes that he has gone from being straight to gay.

Boost Your Brain Power with 20 Minutes of Sleep

What if 20 more minutes of sleep could boost your work performance 2-3x?

Would you get it?

Everywhere I go people tell me they're not getting enough sleep. As an executive coach it's key that I help my clients perform at their peak -- sleep deprived or not. Recently I met with Dr. Jessica Payne, Cognitive Neuroscientist & Assistant Professor at Notre Dame. Payne specializes in sleep and how it affects stamina and our ability to perform. 

Here's what I learned.

Happiness Brings You Money, Study Finds

Scientists may have discovered the secret to avoiding the fiscal cliff: Happiness.

Regardless of whether money can buy happiness, being happy may actually make you more money down the road, new research finds.

People who express more positive emotions as teenagers and greater life satisfaction as young adults tend to have higher incomes by the time they're 29, according to a study published Monday by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The difference was so great that when measuring life satisfaction on a 5-point scale, a 1-point jump at age 22 made a $2,000 difference in income down the line. Between the gloomiest and the happiest brackets, that amounts to an $8,000 earnings swing.

The Secret Life of Telepathic Plants

"My plant read my mind!" On February 2nd, 1966 this realization forever changed the life of the FBI and CIA's foremost polygraph researcher, and reintroduced modern science to the sentient nature of our universe.

On that date the brilliant and disciplined mind of Cleve Backster conceived an irrefutable paradigm-busting scientific protocol. With straightforward electronics that a student or garage-level scientist can replicate, he proved to humans that their thoughts and emotions affect the behavior of their own and other living cells.

For millennia traditional peoples have known that all life forms-plants, animals and even single cells-are not only sentient and intelligent, but that they communicate with one another. This fact got lost a few centuries ago between the mechanistic focus of industrial science and the modern human view of reality that ascribed consciousness only to the human brain.

A few 20th century scientific pioneers, like Chandra Bose in India and the Kirlians in the former Soviet Union, had earlier developed technology to demonstrate energy fields and basic emotional responses in plants and animals. Backster's experimental work took the next step and documented a heretofore unrecognized cellular level of interspecies biocommunication.

Nine Things Successful People Do Differently

By Heidi Grant Halvorson

Why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals, but not others? If you aren't sure, you are far from alone in your confusion. It turns out that even brilliant, highly accomplished people are pretty lousy when it comes to understanding why they succeed or fail.

The intuitive answer — that you are born predisposed to certain talents and lacking in others — is really just one small piece of the puzzle. In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do.

Why Can't We Use Drugs (for brain research)?

Imagine being an astronomer in a world where the telescope was banned. This effectively happened in the 1600s when, for over 100 years, the Catholic Church prohibited access to knowledge of the heavens in a vain attempt to stop scientists proving that the earth was not the center of the universe.

'Surely similar censorship could never happen today,' I hear you say—but it does in relation to the use of drugs to study the brain. Scientists and doctors are banned from studying many hundreds of drugs because of outdated United Nations charters dating back to the 1960s and 1970s. Some of the banned drugs include cannabis, psychedelics and MDMA (now widely known as ecstasy).

Four Mind Power Books Every Young Business Owner Must Read

There are four books that changed my understanding of the way we think, and what motivates our success. These four books showed me how so many of our actions are rooted in subconscious thoughts and how understanding this fact can drive accomplishment.

Throughout my career, I have maintained one objective: to help young people--particularly those at risk--to achieve financial independence, stability and ultimately success.

In addition to the business skills and tools that programs like NFTE provide, I think young people can realize their success by understanding the power of their own minds and the importance of remaining resolute in your work.

Do Dreams Cure or Cause Depression?

Sleep plays a major role in mood regulation; that's a truism that is behind every mother's call for "time to go to bed!" But while the links between dreams and depression are well documented, the role of dreams in maintaining mental health is still one of the most confusing components in the function of sleep.

In the 1970s, psychologists noted that people suffering from depression also report more dreams than average. In fact, people who are clinically depressed may dream three or four times as much. The quality of REM dreams (also called "paradoxical sleep") is different too: more intense emotions, more negative themes, more nightmares, and more unpleasant dreams, in general.

It's insult on top of injury that these unpleasant dreams are often mixed with insomnia and less slow-wave sleep: that "deep" sleep that leaves us feeling restored and refreshed. Rather than waking up refreshed, the clinically depressed dreamer wakes up feeling like he has been in battle all night long and now has to get up and do it again in waking life.

Why Are You Whining About the Meaninglessness of Life?

In “The Matrix”, Morpheus asks Neo “have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream – how could you tell the difference between the dream world and the real world?”

There’s a whole metaphor there about reality and delusion et cetera and it’s been done to death by everyone who thinks they’re a smart guy on the internets, but almost nobody understands the flipside of this coin and asks the counterpart question, which is what I’m going to ask you now:

Have you ever had a dream where you realized you were dreaming while you were still dreaming?

Some people never have, some people have on occasion, and to some people (like the undersigned) it happens all the time. This post will probably be easier for you and give you more if you have some experience of what I’m talking about, but if you don’t I’m going to walk you through it and you can probably follow just fine. It’s not a contest or an achievement to lord over anybody.

George Carlin's Brilliant Post-Modern Comic Rant

The Technology the Government Tried to Ban

By Bradley Thompson / Source: Subliminal Power 2.0

In the 1950s, the CIA stumbled upon a startling discovery... by exposing human brains to 'secret' messages, it was possible to re-engineer a person's thinking without them being aware it was happening.

This self-improvement 'back door' was classified so powerful, the US government actually tried to BAN it in advertising -- for fear it'd give companies an unfair advantage!

But what if you could use this technology to improve your thinking, engineer your emotions and crank up your intelligence, IQ and confidence... by activating it *on purpose*?

Over 70,000 were part of a 9 year experiment to see if it was possible. The results were SHOCKING.

What if there was a way you could activate your brain like a switch?

Well, according to Olympic Medalists, the US Army and Microsoft, there is.

We ALL have this awesome power within us, most people just have no clue how to turn it on, or where to find the right switch!

Today, over one million people are using software (yes, I said software) to gain access to their inner "control panel" and are using it to lose weight, increase their IQ, drop any bad habit, remove fears, eliminate their tension and stress...

Without:

* hypnosis
* meditation
* reading
* magic spells

This is proven by science...

Human Super Senses to Become a Reality

Mankind no longer needs to rely on evolution to obtain new sensory perceptions and abilities.

Society has long dreamed of possessing superhuman powers like those wielded by the characters we see in comics and movies, abilities that would seem to be rooted firmly in the realms of science fiction.

Some scientists however believe that a future in which it will be possible to posses such powers may be a lot nearer than most people think and that research being carried out today could be instrumental in making it happen.

Quantum Suicide and Quantum Immortality

Quantum Suicide is a thought experiment that was originally conceived in 1987 by Hans Moravec but later independently developed by Max Tegmark in 1998.

It is one of those ideas that really squeezes your brain juices in an effort to produce an elixir of profound contemplation.

The idea goes a little something like: get yourself one unobservable room, a healthy physicist and death inducing device i.e. a gun. However it so happens that this gun contains a moving particle and only fires when the particle is moving counterclockwise. There is a 50% chance of this.
