I really doubt the consciousness perceived during NDE is within the mind .


About the Continuity of Our Consciousness

Quote:
So we have to conclude that NDE in our study,1 as well as in the American2 and the British study,3 was experienced during a transient functional loss of all functions of the cortex and of the brainstem. How could a clear consciousness outside one’s body be experienced at the moment that the brain no longer functions during a period of clinical death, with a flat EEG? Such a brain would be roughly analogous to a computer with its power source unplugged and its circuits detached. It couldn’t hallucinate; it couldn’t do anything at all.


Personal Accounts of near death experience

Quote:
Cathy (my girlfriend) has had an NDE after being brought in to the first-aid room of a hospital in Holland. I don't know if it is essential to mention that she had tried to commit suicide (pills). She was unconscience when she was found at home and was brought to the hospital like that.

She remembers to have seen her body lying in the first-aid room, viewed from a high corner near the ceiling; the medical staff was working hard on her 'body', details from this were precisely given by her afterwards without ever having seen the room before or later. She felt quite neutral, even when she heard a doctor or nurse say: 'Oh, there she goes again'.

I really wish you would not use my last name if you print this in your column. I have not shared this experience publicly in fact I am a little hesitant on sharing with you, the few I have told in the past say I was hallucinating or was delsuional at the time. I guess that is why I have kept it inside me for so many many years. Just in the past decade or so have I read and heard more and more people sharing there NDE with the public and revealing very personal details in books. I guess that is what prompted me to share this with you now!

Well, like I said it was l973 and I was in the hospital with a high fever I had lost massive amounts of blood and had bad bad cramping of the stomach due to a miscarriage. I remember being in the emergency room and then they admitted me to a private room. When I was there and the doctor was examining me my heart stopped, my fever was off the themometer, and he called in more doctors and nurses.

I distincly remember starting to feel my body leaving my body and floating up to the top of the room as I looked down there were five doctors 3 nurses IV's being put in both arms and a heart machine trying to bring me back! I just looked down on them and it felt so good to be up there that it was really quite beautiful and I really didn't care to go back. The next thing I recall was floating way up to a place in a bright illuminous light that I have never seen in this world words could not describe the warmth, love , and peaceful feeling that was in this light. I was 17 then and I saw a huge 3 dimensional screen come up bigger then any movie screen I had ever seen in life! I just stood there watching my whole entire life pass before my eyes on this screen everyone in whom I ever was encountered with in my 17 years of life was on this screen every emotion and feeling was also played too!I could not move a muscle in my body yet as my spirit body was moving back into my physical body I kept saying no no don't do this to me let me go don't save me I was really hoping they wouldn't bring me back! I learned one thing when I was there I will always remember I guess it was my lesson or something I never really understood, but I do believe whole heartedly that the message was really simple about life but yet everyone in this world has a hard time trying to live there life that way for some reason I have seen in the decades I have lived since then.
The message was to love each and everyone and judge no one or nothing! just that simple! I have touched many peoples lives over the years and I hope to continue too with this message I hope I have touched yours.
Sincerely Love and Light!!!
