Life After Death: The Burden of Proof
About This Book
Chopra takes on the question of survival of consciousness after death — drawing on quantum physics, neuroscience, the Vedic tradition, and accounts of near-death and after-death experiences to build a case that consciousness is not produced by the brain but uses it as an instrument. He examines the Vedic model of the afterlife in detail and argues that this model is more consistent with modern physics than the materialist view that consciousness ends with the brain.
What You'll Learn
Consciousness does not arise from the brain — the brain is more like a receiver than a generator; damaging the receiver does not destroy the signal. Quantum physics' insight that observation creates reality suggests that consciousness is more fundamental than matter — not the other way around. The soul's journey after death, as described in Vedic tradition, is continuous with the soul's journey in life — both involve the navigation of planes of consciousness organized by karma and desire.
