The Amazing Similarities Between Modern Accounts of Near-Death Experiences and the Ancient Tibetan Book of the Dead
https://www.dailygrail.com/2017/12/the-a...-the-dead/
Quote:The idea here is simply to analyse the contents of the Book of the Dead and its descriptions of the realm of death, with relatively modern Near Death Experience (NDE) accounts and their induced contact with similar realms, in order to see if we can account for the key features of the former referencing the latter. In other words, can we look at the myriad set of “universal potential elements” reported of the NDE, in its more modern context, and find similar elements as have been reported in the Book of the Dead? Any resulting implications will be left up to the reader to decide for themselves.

Sci, and I'm sure I speak on behalf of a lot of folks here, I'm just glad you are back actively posting. I find both your links and more so your commentary quite valuable. Thanks!

Indeed, well said!! If I had time, I would write a more fitting praise, but I don't right now, so I won't

If you keep on like this people are going to realize we're the same person who traveled to the same temporal region in the Garden of Forking Paths to create a newer, more hopeful branch. One that would potentially correct the other, more materialist Earths in other timelines.
