What Really Happens When You Die | Peter Fenwick's Studies of End-of-Life-Phenomena

Video Description

Peter Fenwick (1935–2024) was a neuropsychiatrist and neurophysiologist who is known for his pioneering studies of end-of-life phenomena. In this interview he talks about near-death-experiences (NDE), death-bed-visitors and how we can achieve a good death. NDE research is at the cutting edge of consciousness research and offers a convincing model for the understanding of what happens when we die. Peter Fenwick describes the different transitional phases of the dying process and highlights the importance of letting go at the end of ones life. He offers fascinating insights into common phenomena at the end of life, such as premonitions, seeing a light, death-bed-visions and coincidences. In his opinion everybody should know about death and the dying process, because it is a normal part of living. Contents: 01:08 What is a neuropsychiatrist? 01:45 What does your daily work involve? 03:13 In broad terms, what can we learn from these scans? 04:18 How did you get involved with near-death experiences? 05:18 How did you go about studying these phenomena? 08:35 Did you get the whole spectrum of near-death experiences? 10:00 Is that dependent on your worldview, on your background? 10:18 What do you think is the value of NDE research? 11:24 Do you think that near-death experiences provide some kind of proof that consciousness can exist without a brain? 16:32 Can you tell us about the end-of-life phenomena which you describe in your book? 23:52 So there are visitors and spiritual beings. Are there any other phenomena around death? 28:35 What happens then when the dying is more difficult? 40:09 Do you have a sense of frequently these things occurring? 41:48 How can we achieve a good death? 47:42 Do you think there is any connection between the way we think and the way we live our lives and the way we experience our death and what comes after? 50:37 The cliché we often find in movies and in literature that a good person has a good death and a bad guy has a bad death – is this what you observed in your research? 51:47 Many of my colleagues, many doctors would say these are just hallucinations. What do you say about that? 53:05 What do you say about the so-called hellish near-death experiences? 55:56 What have you learnt from all this? Is there a special message for our culture?
