The Rational Soul Is Incorporeal

Since 1986, David Lorimer has been the Director of Programs at the Scientific and Medical Network, where he continues to edit the magazine Paradigm Explorer.

Educated at Eton and at the universities of St Andrews and Cambridge, he spent several years teaching modern languages and philosophy at Winchester College. As an author, he has written more than 12 books, including Survival: Death as Transition, Resonant Mind, Radical Prince: the Practical Vision of the Prince of Wales, Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality, A New Renaissance, and The Protein Crunch (co-authored with Jason Drew).

Dr. Xavier Melo, Founding Director of ICLOBY Foundation, had the opportunity to speak with him about science, spirituality, and death.

Among his main conclusions, Dr. Lorimer believes that advancing knowledge requires stepping beyond the consensus views of science and academia. This allows us to perceive reality from a different perspective, one that quantum physics already invited us to explore in the 1930s.

From his perspective, it is time to accept that humans are more than physical bodies, and consequently, consciousness is more than brain activity. Studying phenomena such as NDEs, Lorimer argues that they provide clear evidence of a non-physical, non-local consciousness.

Dr. Lorimer also discussed other aspects of science and spirituality, his vision for the foundations of a new humanity, and the principle of the Law of Love.
