Philosophy in the Graveyard: Philosophy & Science of Near Death Experiences

If there is one undebatable thing about all human beings - from the poorest to the richest - we are all going to die in the end.

What happens after we die? That is a question every human being has asked at one point or another.
This year, in our annual ‘Philosophy in the Graveyard’ event at Graceland Cemetery, we will explore the philosophy and science behind Near Death Experiences (NDEs). We will discuss the work of American psychiatrist Raymond Moody, recent scientific findings, as well as traditional philosophical perspectives from the East and the West.
