What Happens When We Die?
A fellow at New York's Weill Cornell Medical Center, Dr. Sam Parnia is
one of the world's leading experts on the scientific study of death.
Last week, Parnia and his colleagues at the Human Consciousness Project
announced their first major undertaking: a 3-year exploration of the
biology behind "out-of-body" experiences. The study, known as AWARE
(AWAreness during REsuscitation), involves the collaboration of 25 major
medical centers through Europe, Canada and the U.S., and will examine
some 1,500 survivors of cardiac arrest. TIME spoke with Parnia about the
project's origins, its skeptics, and the difference between the mind
and the brain.
Genesis 2:7And
the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into
his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
1 Corinthians 15:45And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Hebrews 9:27And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
2 Corinthians 5:8We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:17Then
we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with
the Lord.
