VIRTUAL: Meditation and the Near Death Experience

Thursday, August 157:00—8:00 PMZoomRockport Public Library17 School Street, Rockport, MA, 01966

Since the 1980s when near death experiences became part of the public consciousness, NDEs have held endless attraction for people. Why do they resonate so powerfully within us? 

Join Dr. Matthew Raider, a physician specializing in geriatrics to hear the latest medical research and discover a simple, natural way to connect with the inner light talked about by those who’ve experienced a NDE. Through a simple, time-honored method of meditation, you too can explore those realms of peace within you.

Dr. Raider draws parallels between near-death experiences and experiences of those who have meditated throughout the ages, coming from all backgrounds, in all countries, and all faith and traditions. He then gives the audience an opportunity to learn a simple meditation technique that can enable them to experience the peace and The Light that people who have had NDEs talk about and a chance to try it out.
