除了上述的三位轮回学专家外,其它著名的轮回学家还有: 美国著名死亡问题专家,心理医生伊丽莎白× 居伯乐-罗斯博士 (Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross)。她曾经研究过两万多人次的死亡经历, 证明人死了不是什么也没有,她研究的对象都是昏死以后又救活过来的病人。他们亲口说出死亡以后灵魂出离了身体所遇的经历。有的人死后往往会见到光,或见到黑色隧道,或见到已经过世的家属朋友,有的甚至见到神灵。这个医生本人也有死后复生的经历, 她把自己和两万多研究对象的死亡经历整理出版, 代表著作有 On Life After Death【关于死后的生命】, On Death and Dying【关于死亡和临终】等, 用大量的医学证据证明生命轮回相续的真相。她的著作被翻译成多国文字在世界上很畅销。
其余轮回学学者还有美国精神研究协会主席,布朗大学著名教授杜克斯博士 (Dr. C.J. Ducasse), Professor Gertude Schmeidler, Dr. Martin Ebon, Dr. Edith Fiore, Dr. Frederick Lenz, Dr. Raymond Moody, Dr. Michael Newton, Dr. Helen Wambach,等等。时间关系,不一一赘述了。
结束语
以上我们看到,大量的医学证据有力地证实了生死轮回决定存在,决定真实!我们从这些证明轮回的科研成果中得到许多启示,引发许多思考。
首先,我们认识到这个轮回事实之后,就不必害怕死亡了。因为生命是在无止境的延续,正如刚才神灵所说,根本没有死亡和出生,只是我们在不同的时空中变换身体而已。懂得这个真相之后,我们即使在生命垂危时也不必恐惧和惊慌。
其次,从这些案例中见到,在无尽生命轮回当中,人与人之间可能会多次相遇,我们本着慈爱之心对待和关怀身边每一个人,则来世相见,定会感情融洽。如果跟人结怨结仇,则日后哪一生仇人见面,也会分外眼红。我们为什么不珍惜这一生相遇的缘分,送上一份善意和慈爱呢?
从美国医学界发现的轮回案例中看到,生死轮回苦难多多,这些心理病人前生的不幸,对他们心理的刺激和创伤,一直带到这一生。而各个宗教都讲述了如何在轮回中解脱苦难,提升我们的生命层次。
大量的科研成果固然为我们证实了有生死轮回,然而留下更多的思考:例如,无尽的轮回中的生命形态仅仅以人身的形态吗?抑或存在其它生命体的轮回?轮回中的生命层次是由什么决定的? 我们如何能在轮回中不断提升我们的生命层次?这些都有待于科学去探讨。
追溯轮回学的根源,实际上许多宗教里已有详尽的叙述,如印度教、佛教、天主教等。现代科学正在逐步把这些宗教所说的证实。英国著名的历史哲学家汤恩比教授指出:要彻底了解生命真相,科学必须借助于宗教。净空老法师也表示:宗教教育都是说明宇宙人生真相的教育。因果轮回正是宇宙人生真相的一个重要科目。当然,目前的科学界和医学界对轮回的研究还处在很不成熟的阶段,相信随着科学的进步,我们定能更全面地认识生命的奥秘和找到解脱轮回苦难的方法。
