near death experiences
sSome people will argue
that of course
there is life after
death. There have
been many reports of
independent
individuals who experience
near death
experiences. Tndividuals
throughout
history that are unconnected
and have
no reason to lie or
make up their
experience. But
what these individuals
have witnessed is may
not be a tunnel
to heaven, or whatever
else they may
believe or others enforce
upon them.
The encounter of a feeling
of bliss, a dreamlike state of rising
above the body and drifting,
seeing the room the moments of
their ‘death’ and a
tunnel of light which they feel compelled to
move towards, and eventually
a paradise is not unlike to the
techniques of astral
travelling or meditation. The technique of
these is the slowing
or almost stopping of the heart rate and
breath. Religious
people have strived for this almost
extinguished state this
bliss they experience has a
name:nirvana.
So, could it be possible, that heaven as the
christian doctrine maintains
and these near death experiences,
our only link to our
own realities is nothing more than the brain
starved for oxygen,
and the body’s reaction to such a state?
Gimmie someone clinically
dead for at least few days, so that
they’re not just starved
for oxygen, but fully dead. Someone
cryogenically frozen
would be pretty damn good – if it were only
possible to revive one.
What would these people feel? Would they
remember anything let
alone their experiences ‘after life’? This is
one topic, that each
of us will eventually find the answer to, and
definitely a very personal
quest will take us to the conclusion.
One thing about it though,
would we ever really find out the
answers to life?
I used to think that at least in dying we would
find our if there was/n’t
a heaven/hell/reincarnation/nothingness
etc, but if there was
nothingness and the soul didn’t exist, then
we would never really
find out would we? Because if we existed even
for a split second after
our death to find out or hit realisation,
that means that there
was a split second of life after death and
therefore nothingness
did not result after death/life. So we would
never learn the answers,
unless we hit realisation that there was
nothing after life/death
as we were dying. I’m emphasising on
nothingness because
if there is a heaven, and we did go there, it
would be pretty obvious
that heaven existed. It is harder to prove that
nothingness exists.
