Radin seems to have gotten the understanding, and has started digging into the varied "occult" applications of Psi from varied traditions rather than just hoping something in the more traditional lab setting will provide a "silver bullet".

With NDEs we seem to still be behind, if we're asking the average person to coincidentally see a sticker. At least Parnia seems to be more comfortable with the possibility future science will discover consciousness can survive death, based on what he's said recently.

There's at least one area where NDE studies are not quite comparable with Radin's parapsychology research. That is, a fair proportion of AWARE study patients either did not survive or were too ill to participate in interviews, I sincerely hope Radin is not encountering these particular issues. But in general yes your point is valid, we need to find additional and better ways to study these phenomena.

Personally I take the view that survival of consciousness can best be understood by embracing a whole range of phenomena. One in particular is after-death communication which has affected me personally. But there are a range of other areas which taken together form a better picture than NDEs alone.
