University study of Near Death Experiences

It is heartening to see that the worlds of spirituality and academia will soon meet. NZ Massey University researchers are conducting a large scale study of the phenomenon of near-death experiences (NDE). Bringing NDE into mainstream life is wonderful progress for humanity.

Of course, when we 'die' at the end of each lifetime we may experience similar phenomenon, eg moving through a tunnel with a bright light at the end. However, we can't remember the experience in the next life. That's why NDE research is so valuable.

The bright light at death is the spirit world

I read a newspaper article yesterday in which scientists were trying to prove that the lights people see just before they die are biological, rather than mystical. They say that an electrical charge fires in the brain at the moment of death, causing the bright light.

I've read thousands of accounts over 25 years of near death experiences. Those people all said the same thing: the bright light is the spirit world, their true home. Those souls didn't stay there - they chose to return to Earth, but they never feared death again.

I just don't believe we die, we go into a hole or fire, and that's the end. It's exactly the opposite - death marks our return to our amazing, happy existence as souls in the spirit world.
