• More Martial Mahem June 15, 2026
  So in this post we are going to look at a slide presentation created by Charlotte Martial and presented recently (click on the diagram below to access the full PDF). Thanks Mak and Z for providing this. As we know Martial is more than sceptical about supernatural or paranormal explanations for NDEs. This presentation is […]
• Fame at last! June 8, 2026
  Well maybe not fame, but a bit of attention. Rob Waugh got in touch with me last week and asked a few questions, next thing thoughts from my book appear in the Mail! There are a few mistakes in it which I’m sure some of you will notice unfortunately. The journalist said he will change […]
• Apologies June 5, 2026
  Someone pointed out to me that some of my overtly religious comments ended up in a general post (the one that was created to say I had a new religious section!). I have now moved that over to the religious section, but want to apologise if you came here expecting unbiased NDE discussion and got […]
• Moved this here as it got religious for some reason. It is not easy navigating threads on the App! May 10, 2026
  I am making some changes to the structure of the blog. If you click on blog, you will get everything, but if you hover over blog and allow the menu to drop down you can chose a category. At the moment there are only 2 categories, but I will be adding a few more so […]
• Discussion thread for religion and faith May 9, 2026
  Religion/Faith/Belief Discussion I am creating this separate thread to discuss personal beliefs about the structure of the spiritual dimension and how that should affect how we behave…also known as religious belief. For many this kind of discussion is not wanted, hence the creation of separate thread/page for those who do want to get into it. […]
• New Kid On The NDE Block April 20, 2026
  (If Ms Martial sees this picture, I hope she takes it in the spirit of fun it is intended…maybe she was a fan of these blokes if she is old enough to remember them…I was not). I started this blog primarily to discuss clinical research into NDEs. Sam Parnia’s AWARE studies have formed the backbone […]
• Marshalling “The Spirit” for the Martial study January 9, 2026
  Thanks Paul for letting me know about this IANDS podcast with Charlotte Martial, the consciousness researcher from Liège University in Belgium (Liège is a top European university – when I was doing my Ph.D. I collaborated with them on anti-viral projects) Firstly, it is not a great interview as the interviewer doesn’t seem to understand […]
• Happy Christmas and a story December 24, 2025
  Happy Christmas to all who visit and contribute here! I am sorry I have been somewhat absent of late, but I moved from the UK to New Zealand in August and started a new job in September. We bought a new house in October and then had to unpack a 40 foot container recently. Been […]
• Believe it or not. November 19, 2025
  Apologies for the delay in creating this post, but I recently moved from the UK to New Zealand, starting a new job at the same time, so I have been somewhat distracted! As the eternal hunt for a scientifically validated OBE in an NDE continues (slowly), and the realisation dawns on researchers that it may […]
• The onion of reality October 4, 2025
  I have made a few comments or mini-posts about reality before, but the more I think about it the more I believe it is like an onion, and purposefully so. As I have said before, our experience of reality is an illusion. That is factually true. As a reminder, the first layer is the perception […]
