"Yes, there is life after death and it looks like this applies to everyone,” said Dr. Berthold Ackermann on 29 August, 2014 morning in a press conference at Berlin.
In the same press conference he added:
“I know our results could disturb the beliefs of many people. But in a way, we have just answered one of the greatest questions in the history of mankind, so I hope these people will be able to forgive us."
His announcement comes after 4 years of research with a team of psychologists and medical doctors associated with the Technische Universität of Berlin.
The clinical experimentation was solely aimed at finding out if there is existence of some form of life after death.

Their study used a new type of medically supervised near-death experiences. They used this method to allow patients to be clinically dead for approximately 20 minutes before the team brought them back to life in a clinical process.
This process may be a bit controversial for the reason that they used some very complex mixture of drugs including Epinephrine and Dimethyltryptamine. The purpose of these drugs is to allow the body to survive the damage that may come from the state of clinical death and the reanimation process.
Once the induction of the state of clinical death was achieved, the body of the subject was then put into a temporary comatic state induced by a mixture of some other drugs. After approximately 18 minutes of the clinical death state these drugs had to be filtered by ozone from the subject's blood stream to start the reanimation process.
They have studied 944 volunteers in those four years from different religious faiths and backgrounds -- Christian, Hindus, Jews, Muslims, and atheists. Surprisingly, the religious beliefs of the various subjects seems to have held no difference at all, on the experiences and sensations of the participants as recorded immediately after the experiment.
There were minor variations from one subject to another, but it's noteworthy that all of the subjects have memories of their period of clinical death. If death is the end and there is no life after that it's impossible to have memories after death.
But, that didn't happen. Not only they had memories of their death, they had experiences after death too. A vast majority of them described same very sensations.
Following are the most common memories:
- Feeling of detachment from the body
- The presence of an overwhelming light
- Feelings of levitation
- Feeling of total serenity, security, and warmth
- The experience of absolute dissolution
Now can we call it proof of life exists after death?
I know there would be people who would contest this conclusion, but what matters is what you think. What would you do today if you know that what we call death is not the end of life? What if Life continues after Death?
This is not the first time we had such proof. There had been reports of numerous cases of OBE or Near Death Experiences.
Such experiences have been rejected as hallucinations. They had been hypothesized by so called scientists as unreal and as mere subjective experiences. Our medical journals have articulated many such hypotheses in the past. Perhaps, Dr. Ackermann and his team are the first scientific team to consider them as evidence for the existence of some sort of afterlife. Lastly, what it matters is, if you are ready to accept the presence of spirit, and the dualism between spirit and body.
