Eben Alexander

Maailmankaikkeuden voima on sinussaVuonna 2008 neurokirurgi Eben Alexander vaipui viikon kestäneeseen koomaan. Sukeltaessaan tietoisuutensa syvimpiin syövereihin hän havaitsi, että rakkaus ja sen rajoittamaton parannusvoima yhdistää meitä jokaista. Kokemus muutti kaiken sen, mitä Alexander tiesi aivoista, mielestä ja tietoisuudesta. Se sai hänet pohtimaan, miten selitämme tietoisuuden alkuperän, jos tietoisuus on fyysistä kehoamme suurempi, ei aivojemme sivutuote. Kaikkeuden sylissä syventää Totuus taivaasta -jättihitin ajattelua ja pyrkii selittämään ilmiön myös skeptikoille. Tieteen ja henkisyyden yhdistävä teos laajentaa ymmärrystä itsestämme sekä tarjoaa vinkit siihen, kuinka hyödyntää mielemme äärettömyyttä ja sydämemme voimaa toipumisessa, ihmissuhteissa ja luovuudessa. Kirjassa esitellyt meditaatio- ja mindfulness-tekniikat auttavat valjastamaan meissä kaikissa piilevät maailmankaikkeuden voimat ja mullistavan rakkauden. Eben Alexander (s. 1953) toimi yli 25 vuotta neurokirurgina Bostonin arvostetuimmissa sairaaloissa. Hän on kirjoittanut bestsellerin Totuus taivaasta, joka käsittelee hänen omaa, kooman aikana koettua rajakokemusta sekä teoksen Taivasyhteys, joka rakentuu muiden kuolemanrajakokemuksista ja kertomuksista poismenneiden läheisten kohtaamisista.

Vores bevidste univers er den succesfulde forfatter, neurokirurgen Eben Alexanders nye bog, hvor han sammen med sin partner og medforfatter, Karen Newell, fremlægger, hvordan spiritualitet og videnskab kan forstås som en enhed. Efter sin opsigtsvækkende nærdødsoplevelse, som kastede ham ind i bevidsthedens dybeste områder, kom han til at forstå grundlæggende sandheder om vores bevidsthed, verden og det univers, vi lever i. Det, han oplevede, forandrede alt, hvad han som naturvidenskabsmand havde troet på, ændrede hele hans forståelse af hjernen og vores sind og bragte ham tilbage til livet med en overbevisning om, at bevidstheden rækker ud over vores fysiske eksistens. Men hvordan forklarer vi bevidsthedens oprindelse, hvis den ikke er et biprodukt af hjernen? I bogen introducerer Eben Alexander os til den nyeste videnskab og påpeger, hvor kvantefysikken møder den spirituelle erfaring, og sammen med Karen Newell giver han os ikke kun indsigt i et nyt paradigme, men også redskaber til at opleve universets dybe bevidsthed, som vi alle er en del af, uden at skulle have en nærdødsoplevelse.

In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander’s brain was attacked by a devastating illness, and he lapsed into a weeklong coma. While appearing to be at death’s door, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness, encountering profound truths about God and the soul. For the past eight years, Dr. Alexander has been trying to reconnect with the state of oneness that he felt during his near-death experience. And finally, he has discovered a path. Living in a Mindful Universe presents a groundbreaking new view of consciousness, based on years of study, cutting-edge research, and Dr. Alexander’s extraordinary experiences since his NDE. He has found that it is possible to to access higher realms of consciousness and the Divine Love of the universe—without suffering medical trauma. Through meditation and other stimuli, we can discover an inner stillness deep enough to connect with the Divine. It is this connection that Dr. Alexander experienced, and with Living in a Mindful Universe he teaches others to get there. Great thinkers have admitted that creative insights come from outside of themselves. Thomas Edison, Salvador Dali, Nicola Tesla—revelations came in a flash when they opened their minds. Dr. Alexander is a surgeon, a skeptic, and a rationalist. He’s the last person to tell you to reject science, and alongside spiritual techniques, he offers research that supports the existence of a collective consciousness and the benefits of meditative practices.

När Eben Alexander skrev om sin nära-döden-upplevelse i Till himlen och tillbaka var det många som blev berörda och hörde av sig till honom för att dela med sig av sina egna upplevelser. Det gjorde den välrenommerade neurokirurgen och forskaren ännu mer övertygad om att livet och universum har mer att erbjuda än vår tid på jorden. Till sin nya bok har Alexander träffat och pratat med tusentals människor och samlat märkvärdiga berättelser om allt från nära-döden-upplevelser och möten med andliga väsen till inspirerande och rörande meddelanden från saknade avlidna. Han har också studerat vad våra religiösa traditioner och filosofer kan berätta om själens resa efter döden. Han är överraskad över hur ofta de stämmer överens med de nutida berättelserna han har tagit del av. Vägvisaren till himlen hjälper oss att förstå vidden av vår existens, vad som egentligen väntar bortom döden och hur vårt sanna öde ser ut.

The author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Proof of Heaven teams up with the sages of times past, modern scientists, and with ordinary people who have had profound spiritual experiences to show the reality of heaven and our true identities as spiritual beings. When Dr. Eben Alexander told the story of his near-death experience and his vivid journey to the other side, many readers wrote to say it resonated with them profoundly. Thanks to them, Dr. Alexander realized that sharing his story allowed people to rediscover what so many in ancient times knew: there is more to life, and to the universe, than this single earthly life. Dr. Alexander and his coauthor Ptolemy Tompkins were surprised to see how often his readers' visions of the afterlife synced up with each other and with those of the world's spiritual leaders, as well as its philosophers and scientists. In The Map of Heaven, he shares the stories people have told him and shows how they are echoed both in the world's faiths and in its latest scientific insights. It turns out there is much agreement, across time and terrain, about the journey of the soul and its survival beyond death. In this book, Dr. Alexander makes the case for heaven as a genuine place, showing how we have forgotten, but are now at last remembering, who we really are and what our destiny truly is. The Map of Heaven takes the broad view to reveal how modern science is on the verge of the most profound revolution in recorded history--all around the phenomenon of consciousness itself

Til himlen og tilbage har ligget på New York Times bestsellerliste siden den udkom i USA i oktober sidste år. Det er en opsigtsvækkende personlig beretning, der handler om lægen Eben Alexanders fantastiske nærdødsoplevelse, der vendte op og ned på hele hans livssyn. Som højtuddannet neurokirurg havde han altid været overbevist om, at nærdødsoplevelser måske nok føltes virkelige, men i realiteten var fantasi produceret af hjernen under ekstrem stress. Det var, indtil han selv oplevede det. Som 54 årig blev han syg med en alvorlig bakteriel meningitis, som bragte ham i dyb koma, hvor hjernen efterhånden stod helt af og risikoen for omfattende hjerneskader var overhængende. Lægerne var ved at opgive at holde ham i live og gav ham minimale chancer for at overleve, da han pludselig slog øjnene op. Det at han kom sig er et mirakel, men det virkelige mirakel var de oplevelser, Eben Alexander havde under sin koma. Her oplevede han at rejse til en anden verden, møde et englelignende væsen, som førte ham til de dybeste sfærer af ikkemateriel væren, hvor han kommunikerede med universets guddommelige kilde. Eben Alexander overbevist om, at døden ikke er enden på vores eksistens, og han har skrevet bogen for at formidle sit vigtige budskab.

The #1 New York Times bestselling account of a neurosurgeon's own near-death experience--for readers of 7 Lessons from Heaven. Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress. Then, Dr. Alexander's own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion--and in essence makes us human--shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander's eyes popped open. He had come back. Alexander's recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle of his story lies elsewhere. While his body lay in coma, Alexander journeyed beyond this world and encountered an angelic being who guided him into the deepest realms of super-physical existence. There he met, and spoke with, the Divine source of the universe itself. Alexander's story is not a fantasy. Before he underwent his journey, he could not reconcile his knowledge of neuroscience with any belief in heaven, God, or the soul. Today Alexander is a doctor who believes that true health can be achieved only when we realize that God and the soul are real and that death is not the end of personal existence but only a transition. This story would be remarkable no matter who it happened to. That it happened to Dr. Alexander makes it revolutionary. No scientist or person of faith will be able to ignore it. Reading it will change your life.
