We know our minds are not in our brains, so when our bodies and brains die, we will continue to live on with new bodies in a new world, called by some Summerland, by others Heaven or the afterlife. One area of evidence that we are not our brains is that some people can remember details about every day of their lives. They couldn’t have all those memories if they needed to be stored in the brain. Our minds and our memories are in the greater reality, where we access them just by intending to remember. In this video, Dr. R. Craig Hogan provides evidence that our minds can access a broad range of memories from our lifetimes, demonstrating that our minds are not in our brains, so our minds and memories do not die when our bodies die.

We can remember a great number of details about our lives. And sometimes something will startle us into remembering something we had long since forgotten. All the memories of our lives are available to be remembered if we can just cue them into our minds. That proves our minds are not in our brains. Pim van Lommel is a cardiologist and author of an article in the medical journal, The Lancet. In the article, he explains that American computer science expert Simon Berkovich and Dutch brain researcher Herms Romijn, working independently of one another, came to the same conclusion: that it is impossible for the brain to store everything you think and experience in your life. Their calculations of computing speed and storage concluded that simply watching an hour of television would already use up the brain’s storage capacity.
Our minds and our memories are not in our brains. We access memories from the Greater Reality we are all part of. More evidence is that some people can remember events from every day of their lives. The ability is called hyperthymesia or highly superior autobiographical memory, abbreviated HSAM. Their brains could not hold all those memories from every day of their lives. The memories come from our minds outside of our brains that live on after our brains die.
Marilu Henner ~ Hyperthymesia
Actress, producer, and author Marilu Henner has highly superior autobiographical memories. Henner and others can bring into conscious Awareness memories of every day of their lives. Henner is bringing into conscious awareness memories our Universal Intelligence has available, demonstrating that her mind is not in her brain. This is an excerpt from a Sixty Minutes episode in which Henner describes her ability.
Jill Price ~ Hyperthymesia
Another woman named Jill Price has the same hyperthymesia ability. She can instantly recall what day of the week a date fell on, what she did, what she wore, and any major world or cultural events she heard about on that day. She describes the memories as like scenes from home movies that play constantly in her mind, without effort and without being able to stop them. The vast number of memories could not be stored in her brain.
Emily Nash ~ Hyperthymesia
A young woman named Emily Nash, from Canada, also has highly superior autobiographical memory. She amazes her friends and family by remembering details from history and every day of her life.
Kim Peek ~ Savant
Kim Peek, whose life inspired the movie Rain Man with Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise, had macrocephaly resulting from damage to the cerebellum. He was missing parts of his brain, so he didn’t learn to walk until age four and still walked in a sidelong manner until his passing. He could not button up his shirt and had difficulty with other motor activities. His IQ scores were well below average.
However, despite his deficiencies, he could recall books in their entirety from memory. He had photographic recall of 98% of what he read one time. He had read and could recall every word of some 7,600 books. He memorized phone books and maps, enabling him to navigate routes, and memorized piano pieces after a single hearing that he could play perfectly.
Your Mind Is Not in Your Brain
Highly superior autobiographical memory and savants’ extraordinary memories demonstrate that our minds and memories are not in our brains. Just an hour of television would fill our brain’s memory capacity. And no neuroscientist can explain how the brain produces a mind, where memories are stored in the brain, or how someone could remember events from every day of their lives. Your mind is not in your brain, so when your brain dies, your mind will just change focus to the next realm of your eternal life, where you will be reunited with all the people and pets you loved who are waiting for you.
