.
Dr. Kenneth Ring, psychologist, researcher, founder of IANDS and co-author of the book “Lessons from the Light” published after 20 years studying the NDE phenomenon, coined the term “benign virus”, to describe the effect on people exposed to the subject as being similar to the transformational after-effects noted in people who have these experiences.
Nearly 40 years of research demonstrate that when people learn about near-death and similar experiences, they are positively transformed like the experiencers themselves as follows:
Loss of fear of death.
Less materialistic, more altruistic in use of time and resources.
More compassionate and loving.
More sensitive to the effect of one’s behavior on others.
More spiritual and less dogmatically religious or atheistic.
Our mission is to enable these transformations globally… you can help … Join or Renew now!
And a wonderful reminder of a key message from exploring this mission – enjoy the following:
