It was clear to me that the forms of consciousness of our inherited and acquired historical education - aesthetic consciousness and historical consciousness - presented alienated forms of our true historical being.

With Shakespeare and poetry a new world was born. New dreams new desires a self consciousness was born. I desired to know to know myself in terms of the new standards set by these books.

If consciousness can function independently of the body during one's lifetime it could be able to do the same after death.

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.

If the heart stops for more than two minutes you have massive brain death. There are only two minutes between our conscious world and zero. That's how fragile our consciousness is.

Fear of death has never played a large part in my consciousness - perhaps unimaginative of me.

Coming to terms with the fear of death is conducive to healing positive personality transformation and consciousness evolution.

Consciousness after death demonstrates the possibility of consciousness operating independently of the body.

Whether or not we believe in survival of consciousness after death reincarnation and karma it has very serious implications for our behavior.

The human consciousness is really homogeneous. There is no complete forgetting even in death.
