Beyond the War: Lessons from a Remembered Life With Benjamin Carraud

Send us Fan MailIn this interview, Benjamin Carraud discusses memories and research related to Eugen Kunstmann, contrasting his own recalled impressions with documented biography.  Carraud describes how journalist Stefan Alix’s documentary, book, and foundation connected him to supportive therapy, including a therapist with similar memories. Benjamin recounts an “intermission” life-review experience after death, including guilt over executing a captured child, and says it reshaped his understanding of responsibility and forgiveness. He encountered three beings who “came for” him and worked with him.  He learned a lot about the human soul, about the weight of forgiveness, what it means to forgive, what it means to forgive yourself, and what it means to also be a human being and face the consequences of your action.
