I had a near death experience and know we are spirit first and human second. The research on NDEs show that consciousness continues to live after the death of the brain and body. Everyone needs to know this information.

Parts of this framework include causality/determinism, space, and time. While these things are the way the human mind works with the appearances it receives, we cannot know how the things really truly are in themselves. So it could be that things/humans have free will in themselves, but any appearances we receive from them will be interpreted under the framework of determinism/causality.

Btw I didn’t watch the video and I don’t study this stuff much so if there’s a difference between causality and determinism that I’m unaware of please share.
