The first near-death experience video I've ever seen! ?

Here is a classic book on "Near-Death Experience": "Consciousness Beyond Life: The Science of Near-Death Experience" (Commercial Press) is one of the best works in the field of near-death experience philosophy of science. The first edition of the book was published in Dutch in 2007 and sold 100,000 copies that year, and has since been translated into English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Latvian and other languages. Not only will this book lead us to rethink death, but it will make us appreciate life even more. "Near-Death Experience" refers to the conscious experience of a person reaching a state of clinical death, which includes certain elements, such as hearing beautiful music, seeing tunnels or light, floating out of the body, life review, meeting with deceased relatives, etc. . The book "Consciousness Beyond Life" is based on a well-established experimental design and theoretical framework. It not only covers empirical research in all aspects of NDE research, but also proposes a unique philosophical theory of consciousness.

This demonstration process can be said to have pushed forward the scientific research of "near-death experience" a big step forward. In terms of theory, Professor Raumere mainly resorted to the arguments of the philosophy of consciousness and quantum physics, and put forward the concept of "endless consciousness" - the essence of endless consciousness, which precedes our birth and body, and will be in the After death, it exists independently of our body and exists in an indeterminate space with no spatiotemporality. From this point of view, we can seriously consider whether death, like birth, is only a transition from one state of consciousness to another, and the function of the body is equivalent to an "interface". Another quote from the book: The reasons for not accepting inexplicable phenomena are always emotional, such as fear that the beauty or efficiency of a scientific system will be harmed. These are completely unscientific and irrational reasons, and they lead to a poverty of reflection. ——Frederick van Eden said in The Analects of Confucius in the past, "How can we know death without knowing life?", and today we should ask, "How can we know life without knowing death?" …
