    The Closer To Venus Podcast

    The Closer To Venus Podcast will feature interviews on metaphysical/ spiritual topics such as past lives, reincarnation, astral travel, Ascension, mediumship, consciousness science, the quantum realm, angels, spirit guides, shamanism, ancient civilizations, star beings, or just about anything that Edgar Cayce wrote about. It’s important to note that we are not experts, only everyday people who have questions about spirituality and how to get to “higher ground”. We just don’t feel that traditional religious and scientific beliefs offer satisfactory answers to questions such as why are we here, what is our purpose and where are we going. If you have questions or would like to hear a particular speaker on our show, send us an email. If you like our show, please don’t forget to share this podcast with your friends and on social media.

    #163 Impressions of Near-Death Experiences with Bob Coppes

    #163 Impressions of Near-Death Experiences with Bob Coppes

    Our guest in episode #163 is Robert Christophor Coppes; he is a scientist who has studied NDEs for decades and is also the author of“Impressions of Near-Death Experiences” which features hundreds of quotes from the  experiencers themselves. What we observed:


    • It is estimated that 4 or 5 % of people in the US have experienced NDEs
    • Near death experiences are the most tangible thing that can give credence to the theory that consciousness does survive death of the brain 
    • Many near death experiencers many say;once you're there in this “other world”, you know everything, every piece of knowledge is there for you 
    • If we are so connected,  there are many  Near-death experiencers that say that we are one, then life is a zero sum game
    • A life review can allow you to feel what another person felt as a result of your actions
    • After effects of NDEs can include heightened psychic / mediumship abilities
    • People that have hadNDEs may be the best tutors in life
    • Some NDEs include memories of planning their lives, and sometimes choosing “terrible” things to experience
    • The most prominent messages of NDES are unconditional love and oneness
