Product Description

Since research scientists began to delve into the nature of the mind and the afterlife in the last quarter of the twentieth century, humankind has made remarkable discoveries that have left researchers in wonder and awe. Your Eternal Self contains descriptions of the results of the thousands of studies that have pointed unmistakably to the finding that we are eternal beings having a physical experience. Death is an illusion. Even hard-nosed skeptics described in the book have changed their viewpoints in light of the evidence. Your Eternal Self describes carefully controlled, scientific research done by biologists, physicists, neuroscientists, physicians, psychologists, Nobel laureates, and other renowned scientists showing that the mind is outside of the brain, people see and know things they couldn't know if the mind were in the brain, the afterlife is as real as this life, people's minds are united, and our consciousness actually changes the environment in which we live. The book cites 330 sources from many prestigious scientific, psychological, and medical journals, but distills the essence of the research without technical detail, bringing it down to practical, daily life. It is easy reading and full of fascinating anecdotes and explanations. Your Eternal Self ends by describing what our purpose seems to be in life, what true spirituality is, how people can grow spiritually to change themselves so they have love and bliss in their lives, how they can provide that loving legacy for their children's children, and what the research has shown about the world of the afterlife.

5.0 out of 5 stars Examining The Best Evidence, February 29, 2008
By Michael E. Tymn (Kailua, Hawaii) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)    (VINE VOICE)   
The next time I encounter someone who is looking for assurance that physical death is not the end I will recommend this book. Having read literally hundreds of books offering evidence that consciousness survives physical death, I would have to rank this as number one from the standpoint of offering the reader the full gamut of phenomena supporting the survival hypothesis in clear and concise language.

This book deals with the most important question facing mankind - whether we are all marching toward extinction in a meaningless world or whether we are spiritual beings temporarily occupying physical bodies while participating in a divine plan. "Our culture has a desperate fear of death, as though death were somehow a bad thing - the end of existence," Dr. R. Craig Hogan, the author, advances, pointing out that much of the money spent in healthcare today is expended on the last two weeks of life, trying to keep the body alive just a few days longer. The problem, Hogan suggests, is that humankind matured intellectually over the past two millennia, but went spiritually backward. "The result is that over the two millennia since the Axial Age, humankind has been in a spiritual dark ages," he continues. "Religion punished anyone who spoke about spiritual things not sanctioned by the religion." Meanwhile, a "herd of stubborn skeptics" resisted from the other end out of pure elitist arrogance.

As Hogan points out, there is overwhelming evidence that we are eternal beings - evidence that if properly studied and discerned allows those accepting the afterlife on blind faith to move to true faith or conviction. At the same time, the skeptic with an open mind can move off his skepticism to belief.

"People today who are still not able to accept the abundant data that the afterlife is as real as this life have not read the evidence or participated in medium activities," Hogan explains. "They assume that the mind is confined to the brain, so evidence of the mind outside of the body couldn't be valid, and that justifies their not reading it. Because they haven't read the evidence, they assert that there is no evidence, and since they are not themselves aware of any evidence to the contrary, they are assured that the mind must be confined to the brain and that reinforces their belief that any evidence of the mind outside of the brain must be invalid. That circular reasoning leaves them in an ignorance of their own making."

Hogan begins by examining the most recent evidence which strongly suggests that the mind is much greater than and not confined to the physical brain. He first looks at remote viewing, mentioning some very impressive research in the area as well as his own interesting experience with this phenomenon. He then looks at out-of-body experiences, including near-death experiences, various forms of mediumship, including materializations and the direct-voice phenomenon, deathbed visions, apparitions, induced after-death communication, studies in ESP, what-have-you. He summarizes the findings of esteemed scientists and scholars both of yesteryear and today, often quoting them. He examines the arguments by the debunkers and then offers arguments debunking the debunkers.

After examining the evidence for survival, Hogan discusses some of the testimony from the spirit world concerning the conditions after death. "People do not lose their individuality in the afterlife and don't suddenly become omniscient or clairvoyant," he states. "They don't change. They also don't transform into being good or angelic. They carry their fears, conflicts, and problems into the afterlife." The environment one finds himself in depends on the person's state of being when he leaves the earth realm.

Hogan has taken the best evidence, distilled it, dissected it, and discerned it. The person with an open mind will find much food for thought in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling and Eye-Opening, April 20, 2008
R. Craig Hogan's book presents fascinating and compelling evidence that a non-physical reality truly exists. A truly open-minded reader will have a difficult time dismissing the evidence as inadequate or fatally flawed. Instead, the evidence is eye-opening and at times jaw-dropping. The concept that the mind is NOT located within the brain--and the reasons given for that amazing assertion--are more than worth the price of the book.

Evidence is presented by physicists, physicians, and other professionals from prestigious journals such as the Lancet. Data on numerous topics such as remote viewing, mediumship, and after-death communications are offered. The last part of the book ventures into practical concerns such as how to grow spiritually, and ponders questions such as "What are you to do with your eternal life?" and "What is the relationship of your eternal self to the physical realm?"

R. Craig Hogan is co-author of "Induced After-Death Communications" which reveals groundbreaking work on how EMDR--a well-established treatment for post-traumatic stress--can be used to trigger the subjective experience of having an after-death communication from a loved one.

In all, if you want to tantalize your mind (wherever it may be located) with fascinating evidence from reputable scientists that there is ample evidence of survival of consciousness after death and that we are really spiritual beings more than physical beings, you will enjoy this well-organized, thought provoking book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Discover Your True Secret Identity, April 10, 2008
How can it be possible that ideas come to people fully formed, seemingly out of the blue... out of thin air? Why do people consistently react to pictures physiologically BEFORE seeing the images? How do blind people see without use of their eyes? How have some people been able to speak and write in languages they did not previously know?

Dr. Craig Hogan takes us on an astonishing tour through these questions and much, much more in his extraordinary book, "Your Eternal Self." The shocking truth of the matter is that our minds are much more than our brains, and through our minds, we have access to and influence over physical things and people which are distant from us both space and time. Packed with excellent cutting-edge references to the most current scientific discoveries in the field of consciousness, "Your Eternal Self" gracefully opens a door to a completely new understanding of who and what we are.

I love the elegant simplicity of layout and organization of this book, as it so artfully guides us through a series of fascinating topics, experiments, questions, and ideas. When describing how we know what we know about the afterlife, "Your Eternal Self" explains that we are learning about the afterlife through: near death experiences, after death communication, induced after death communication, mental medium communication, and direct voice and physical medium communications.

I especially adore Chapter 10, "Recent Indications the Mind Forms the Brain," for its tour de force assessment of scientific research describing how the brain is reflecting what the mind has already seen. I give this book my highest recommendation, and hope that every serious seeker, researcher and student of consciousness reads it!
