Afterlife Revealed podcast - Episode 4 Note - Afterlife Revealed Episode #3 is only available on YouTube, due to subtitles. You can find it at: https://www.youtube.com/@IANDSvideos In this episode we talk to afterlife researcher, former IANDS Board Member and creator of the world’s first and largest near-death experiences Facebook group, Ned Matinnia. Ned has been a seeker since childhood and his life was transformed after he discovered near-death experiences and mediumship. Today he works as a software engineer in Silicon Valley but his greatest passion is getting the word out about NDEs and their message of kindness, emphasizing that unity and coming together across the world is the path to healing. In this episode, packed with insight and wisdom, we discuss what we can learn from the field of near-death studies about consciousness and the divine, whether NDEs are laying the groundworks for a more spiritually oriented society, and Dani introduces for the first time the concept of an “Afterlifer”, as someone who came to terms with the afterlife through scientific evidence, rather than through the traditional paths of Religion or Faith, so be sure to watch until the end!

A near-death experience (NDE) is typically a profound, life changing, intensely emotional experience that usually occurs during a clinical crisis and has common characteristics and aftereffects. It is not a dream, hallucination, or mental illness (Greyson, 1983). There are no predictive variables to identify who will have an NDE. They happen to people of all ages, religions, socio-economic groups, cultures, educational backgrounds, and belief systems. They occur under a variety of circumstances such as accidents, near-drownings, illnesses, combat, surgical procedures, and childbirth. Following an NDE, experiencers (NDErs) often display some common aftereffects. Research has established a set of common NDE characteristics and long-term aftereffects. Theories used to explain near-death experiences in purely physical terms have been proven inadequate by NDE researchers and others.
