Near-Death Experiences and The Life Review with Bruce Greyson

New Thinking Allowed with Jeffrey Mishlove • Mar 10, 2024 • Edited subtitles for this video are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Swedish. In this interview with Christopher Naughton, Bruce Greyson, M.D. states that nearly 30% of all near-death experiences are accompanied by a “life review,” an examination of all the events in one’s life. They often are experienced with intensive detail, as seen and felt through one’s own perceptions as well as others, without judgment or punishment. Greyson’s story begins in the early 1970s. Long before the term Near Death Experience (NDE) became part of our vocabulary, two figures crossed paths at the University of Virginia that would change everything relating to the yet-unnamed phenomenon. Dr. Raymond Moody, collecting stories of near-death experiences that would eventually be the basis of his groundbreaking best-seller “Life After Life,” became a student of Bruce Greyson, M.D., a psychiatrist and professor at UVA who had collected a few NDE stories of his own. Moody would become a best-selling author on the subject and Greyson would go on to start IANDs (the International Association of Near Death Studies), author the book “After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond,” and help formulate what would become the University of Virginia’s Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS) program. Today Greyson is a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia. Greyson’s work reveals that NDEs have been reported in various cultures throughout history, indicating that they are not limited to specific religious or cultural beliefs. He also states that NDEs can lead to a transformation and renewal of one’s perspective on life, emphasizing the interconnectedness of all beings. This program was previously recorded for the seminar led by Christopher Naughton “The One Mind: Mind-Blowing Discoveries on the Nature of Life, Death and Consciousness”.
