thread seems to have taken a very christian twist, which has a very narrow scope.
Some here may wish to look into recent research into NDEs, both the pineal gland, pituitary gland, synthesised 5-MeO-DMT.
Also, the state of Samadhi reached by advanced yogis, and well explained in ancient Vedic texts written long before the birth of christ. Similarly discussed in Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Sufism. Hell, I reckon even our Aboriginals have a better handle on this stuff in their dreamtime and spirit worlds than what us westie-christians do.
