Neurosurgeon Dr. Eben Alexander who has taught at Harvard Medical School, has always been convinced that any “out-of-body experiences” were nothing but hallucinations; until he went into a coma himself and had what he now believes was a glimpse of heaven.
In his book titled “The Map Of Heaven,” Dr. Alexander reveals that many others have seen the same things he described after coming out of his coma.
According to him, a near-death experience will change one’s life in so many ways, and as you adjust to the radical new perspective, the aftermath can be very significant, as if “an old world was dead and you were reborn into a new one,” as he said.
“Coping with this is hard: how do you replace your old vision of the universe with a new one, without unraveling into chaos? How do you take that step from one world to another one, without slipping and falling between the two?” he continued.
Dr. Alexander also received testaments from other people who have gone through the same experience, one of them is from a man named Pascale who spoke about his father who had a PhD in astrophysics and was ‘100 percent scientifically minded,’ in other words, a complete atheist.
Pascale’s dad was a heavy drinker and had suffered a succession of emotional blows, leading his organs including, kidneys, liver and then lungs to shut down. He soon succumbed to double pneumonia. No one expected him to live, but the doctors placed him in an induced coma.
After three months in intensive care, he started to come round, and all he wanted to talk about with his son were his experiences of heaven.
“He had seen the after-life, just as I did. And he brought back the same message: there were angel-like beings who loved us more than we could imagine, and they would help us, if we would only let them,” Dr. Alexander said.
This is only one of the several stories Dr. Alexander had received and which are included in his book that was written and published after he had shared his own experience with the public.
