Scientific evidence for the continual presence of consciousness with or without connection to a living organism.
The Immortal Mind examines findings on the survival of consciousness beyond life, including near-death experiences, after-death communication, and reincarnation. It explains how this correlates precisely with cutting-edge physics theories on superstrings, information fields, and energy matrices. The book reveals how consciousness manifests in living beings to continue its evolution.
Evidence now points to consciousness existing beyond the brain, such as when the brain is temporarily incapacitated, as well as to the survival of consciousness after death. Conventional science prefers to dismiss these findings because they cannot be accommodated by a materialist view of reality. Spirituality and religion embrace the continuity of consciousness and ascribe it to a nonmaterial spirit or soul that is immortal. As such, spirituality/religion and science continually find conflict in their views. But what if there truly is no conflict?
Based on a new scientific paradigm in sync with experience-based spirituality, Ervin Laszlo and Anthony Peake explore how consciousness is continually present in the cosmos and can exist without connection to a living organism. They examine the rapidly growing body of scientific evidence supporting the continuity of consciousness, including near-death experiences, after-death communication, reincarnation, and neurosensory information received in altered states. They explain how the persistence of consciousness beyond the demise of the body means that, in essence, we are not mortal--we continue to exist even when our physical existence has come to an end.
This correlates precisely with cutting-edge physics, which posits that things in our plane of time and space are not intrinsically real but are manifestations of a hidden dimension where they exist in the form of superstrings, information fields, and energy matrices.
With proof that consciousness is basic to the cosmos and immortal in its deeper, nonmanifest realm, Laszlo and Peake reveal the purpose of consciousness is to manifest in living beings in order to continuously evolve.

Praised as a compelling and well-written investigation, the book is recommended by experts like cardiologist Pim van Lommel, who highlights its overwhelming evidence for consciousness existing beyond death. P. M. H. Atwater applauds it as an unparalleled collection of research on near-death experiences and reincarnation, skillfully connecting these to the immortality of the soul and the meaningfulness of human life.
