In Search of Immortality
11/26/2021 - The Bigelow contest, officially known as the BICS contest, is the first contest of its kind to explore if there is evidence for consciousness outside of the body. Over 1,000 people from around the world participated in this contest. Just over two hundred essays were allowed to proceed to convince the judges that "Yes" consciousness can, and does, exist separately from the body - even after death. Many questions were explored, such as: What is consciousness?; What evidence is convincing? How do we know? A distinguished panel of judges evaluated the BICS essays and constituted one of the most stringent and scholarly peer-reviews conceivable. Dr. Pim van Lommel, one of the leading researchers in the world on Consciousness, and Dr. Jeff Long, founder of NDERF and media personality, brought home significant prizes. Dr. van Lommel was awarded the number 2 prize and Dr. Long was in the runner-up group.

A hearty congratulations for these life-time achievement awards in moving humanity forwards!
NDERF NDE Definition:
"A lucid experience associated with perceived consciousness apart from the body occurring at the time of actual or threatened imminent death."
Jeffrey Long, MD was astounded after reading about his first NDE. He wanted to find out directly from the source - the NDErs themselves - if what he read could be true. If so, the implications would be staggering. So he set up nderf.org with a survey for near-death experiencers (NDErs). After 20 years of extensive research with over 4,000 NDErs from all over the world, we can unequivocally say "YES, NDEs Are REAL!"
NDERF the 501(c)(3) Organization is the next step.
NDEs have the power to transform.
NDERF.org has been getting the word out to people around the world about the love, peace and hope contained in the NDE experiences. The world is listening. NDERF is not only the largest NDE website in the world, but it is widely read and shared in over 30 different languages.
A big thanks to our readers, the NDErs, and all the other people who have shared their stories with us. Each and every one of you have helped make us who we are.
Building the Future.
Action Plan.
Jeff and I won't be around forever. We need to create a plan of continuity so that the NDERF.org website continues to inspire, create peace and spread the love to others. NDERF.com will do that.
We plan to continue getting the word out to empower people in a variety of ways.
We plan to reach out to younger people to help them make the most loving choices in life.
We plan to educate older people that death is not to be feared because we continue on in the afterlife.
Where are we going?

Comfort from fear of dying
Just a thank you for continuing to post near death surveys on your website. As a spiritual seeker who also is dealing with cancer, these accounts are very comforting. I check for new postings regularly and always enjoy reading all the new postings as soon as they are available on the Website.
I found Dr. Long's book, "Evidence of the Afterlife" to be an excellent source of information that was both analytically presented and inspiring. I've survived cancer a number of times and am prayerfully optimistic this will again be the case at age 64. However, I'm confident that a loving Creator awaits us to experience Atonement in Love once we lay our bodies down. Thanks to many NDE accounts of the marvelous love that awaits us, my fear of dying has diminished. -
Unconditional Love
My experience was marked by the distinct sound of universal joyous laughter that reverberated everywhere about me - surrounding me - flowing through me, an outpouring of such wondrous bliss and happiness, and I was overcome with an overwhelming sense of Great Love - the answer to my lifelong question, always, 'What is our reason for living and existing in the first place?' The Answer from this Cosmic Source was 'To love unconditionally - to experience it, to express it, to share it!' - Debbie P
I was experiencing an indescribable feeling of unconditional love and felt surrounded by the purest white light. The peace and love in which I was engulfed was simply too vast to be described in words. What I really wanted was to get lost in this peace and love. - Annette Q

Joy, Happiness, and Hope
I used to be depressed and felt hopeless, like I had no control over my life. After reading the NDEs, I have found a sense of peace and a new level of understanding. My life has changed so much for the better now.- David
First of all I would very much like to thank you for all the work you are doing. I think it's not only inspiring, but also it gives us hope and answers many of us are looking for. Let me introduce myself. I never had an NDE but I had some interesting experiences that made the subject a lifelong interest. I think NDEs not only give us peace and hope about death, but they also are a very important source of information about the transcendence and meaning of our life experience. - My name is Federico and I am from Argentina.
