## Resource

This week on The Amish Inquisition, we’re joined by Dr Penny Sartori, one of the world’s leading researchers of Near‑Death Experiences (NDEs) and author of The Wisdom of Near‑Death Experiences. With over 20 years of clinical nursing experience — including a landmark five‑year ICU study — Penny brings rare scientific insight into what people report at the very edge of life. Are NDEs hallucinations, spiritual events, or evidence that consciousness survives death? What do people consistently describe when their brain is clinically shutting down? And why do these experiences transform lives so profoundly? We explore: The core patterns of Near‑Death Experiences across cultures What patients report when the brain is supposedly “offline” Veridical perception — cases where people saw or heard things they shouldn’t have been able to How NDEs challenge materialist models of consciousness The transformative after‑effects: personality shifts, values, intuition, worldview The big question: What do NDEs reveal about the nature of consciousness itself? Whether you’re sceptical, curious, or deeply invested in the mystery, Penny Sartori brings clinical data, human stories, and decades of research to one of the most profound questions we can ask.
