Life After Death

His explanation is excellent, very well put. I am confident that dying is nothing to be afraid of, you just die, it's no big deal.
The thing I am scared of, terrified of, is how my husband will cope. The thought of him tortured by grief is something too painful to bear. So I will refuse to die, I will not accept the easy way out. I must stay alive because someone needs me.
 
I respect his own interpretation of his own experience, but I'm not sure I'd use the same terms to describe the same events.

Principally, I don't think the words "death" and "dying" apply to anyone who doesn't in fact die. They were critically ill, and they survived, period. I don't care if they were frozen under water, if they were oxygen-deprived without CPR, or on an operating table. You're not dead until you're dead. Losing consciousness, being in a coma, and even having no visible signs of life are all conditions of the living.

That is not to say I think dying is not peaceful, for some. Others have given first-person testimony that they felt horrible, and that their perception after "dying" was anguished.

On a related note, I love movies that take on this area, which range from sci-fi to horror to drama. It's one of the most enduring of human questions.

For me, I am not afraid of dying and would not feel cheated or deprived, although I'd rather not go in some pit in a serial killer's basement with a hand lotion basket. :)
 
In the first place, he is probably wearing the ski cap to cover up the scarring from his cranial operation.

It is interesting to compare this guy's description to Dr. Raymond Moody's findings in his interviews with people who have had near-death experiences, as described in his books such as Life After Life and The Light Beyond. In the clip, the young man mentions memories of his past life flashing before his eyes, feelings of peacefulness and painlessness, and being disappointed at having to come back to living in his body, which are all characteristics that Dr. Moody describes in his books. Though one difference is that the guy in the clip simply says his memories flashed by, and he gives no mention of them being presented for evaluation or judgment like many of the NDE cases Dr. Moody describes.

It's also notable what is missing in the young man's account, as compared to Dr. Moody's cases. He did not say anything about being out of his body, of seeing what was happening in the operating room from a point above. Nor did he mention going through a tunnel, meeting a being of light that radiated feelings of love, or of meeting dead relatives typical of Dr. Moody's accounts.
 
It sounds similar to what I have heard before. I have also read books with similar sentiments as Araucaria has.
 
Seems like a real conundrum, rarely does one have a "charmed" life. Most of us have had many tragedies, trails, sorrows and disappointments. Logically it would seem that when life ends it would be a relief, yet it seems to be hard wired in to a healthy mind to survive, cling to life as long as we can. I remember Christopher Reeve, a tall handsome guy that had it made. Then one accident took place and he was a quadriplegic. I am sure that he had to have gone through some real difficulties in adjusting to his restrictions. I have often said that when I can't care for myself I will gladly let go... no cpr. Quality before quantity.
 
I went into cardiac arrest while in the hospital. I remember floating upwards and complete peace and calmness. Next, I was drifting over a still body of water towards a shore. On the shore was groups of people, but I could not tell who they were. The big thing I recall was the incredible beauty of that land and the intense colors. Every color gave me a pleasant emotional sensation. In other words, I saw and felt the colors. Just as I drifted closer to the shore a being clothed in brilliant light appeared, pushed me back, and shouted "no"! I was jolted back awake and in intensive care.
 
Death is a part of life. We will all go through it. I just think of it as lights out.
 
It is pretty much lights out.

Like being put under anaesthetic.
 
Every choice you make or direction you take splits time and space into one of many million different dimensional realities, all of which exist concurrently. As you approach clinical death, you pass through all of these dimensions very quickly, which explains the 'life passing before your eyes' phenomenon. If you are able to be revived, your journey will briefly stop in one of these dimensions as your course reverses back toward the earthly plane. Because human beings are, by design, spiritually and sensually deficient, you will not be privy to the sights and sounds of the reality in which you sojourn, so it will appear to you as both transparent nothingness and a blinding conglomeration of all that ever existed, hence the "white light".

If, however, your will is weak and you are destined to die, you will simply pass through all dimensions until you come to meet Empress Snowcone WIgglebottom , who will judge your ultimate fate, because there is a God and she is a cat.

This again. :rolleyes:

Oh poor, poor Christopher Reeve.

Imagine having to adjust to such restrictions when you're not a wealthy movie star.

You should see this girl I went to school with, her cloud had so much silver in its lining im surprised there isnt a Universal shortage! They had a corner lot house decently sized a block down and 1 over from me, They went to Disney every year, she became a Dr. After going to school in the tropics passing with honors, she did print modeling in school, she married a decent guy who is nuts because he bought her a $450,000 house for $900,000 (amazing the things you can find out on zillow) he took her on safari for a honeymoon they have been all over Europe 3 times in the 3 years they have been married. I mean it must be hard not having anything to worry about!
