That seems to be the message of many NDEs too, on returning the experiencer knows that they have a purpose in being here, even if it isn't always clear what that is. -- Yes, Typoz, this paragraph of your post does resonate with me. Indeed, during my many years of essentially being a materialist, I had the same feelings: why the bloody hell am I here on earth with the certainty that in the end I would be annihilated completely, thrown into oblivion... What is the purpose of all this when in effect it is all totally insignificant? The usual materialistic mantra is that life is senseless indeed but that it is all up to yourself to make it significant, did not resonate with me. I found it all a dreary prospect anyway... But like you, when I "discovered" the NDE and also the evidence of reincarnation - which, to my opinion is strong enough - life has become so much more bearable, so fulfulling.  Like you said, this evidence is so uplifting! No more dreary darkness, but the good feeling that we are here to learn, and to fulfil a real purpose... Thanks you for bringing this up.
