Quote:Key points
- Many unusual experiences are reported by people who witness or are connected to someone's death.
- These include spiritual experiences of elation, and profound altered states of consciousness.
- "Crisis apparitions" may occur when a person is not even aware that a relative or friend is close to death.
- Studies show that three-quarters of people have sensed the presence of a deceased loved one in some form.
'Historically, we may regard materialism as a system of dogma set up to combat orthodox dogma...Accordingly we find that, as ancient orthodoxies disintegrate, materialism more and more gives way to scepticism.'
