For any culture which is primarily concerned with meaning, the study of death - the only certainty that life holds for us - must be central, for an understanding of death is the key to liberation in life.

In some instances, the accuracy of past-life memories can be objectively verified, sometimes with remarkable detail.

Freud said that we are born as a tabula rasa. This is a model that simply is too superficial and inadequate.

I read Freud's Introductory Lectures in Psychoanalysis in basically one sitting. I decided to enroll in medical school. It was almost like a conversion experience.

Each of us can manifest the properties of a field of consciousness that transcends space, time, and linear causality.

The study of consciousness that can extend beyond the body is extremely important for the issue of survival, since it is this part of human personality that would be likely to survive death.

At a time when unbridled greed, malignant aggression, and existence of weapons of mass destruction threatens the survival of humanity, we should seriously consider any avenue that offers some hope.
