Life after death may exist, Finnish researcher suggests Human consciousness may continue even after the brain stops working. Pekka Rehrt, who published a study in the Journal of Consciousness Studies, came to this conclusion in his theoretical work. The basis for the hypothesis was the stories of people who survived cardiac arrest. Some of them described vivid sensations and retained memories of what happened, despite extremely low brain activity. The scientist admits that consciousness can exist independently of its work, but there is still no evidence of life after death.
