Isn't there that story of the Guy in France who dies on the operation table in the hospital, and while i was dead remained conscious, moved around as if a ghost threw the room for a moment and then went to meet God, and in his presence he felt an immense sentiment of love as he had never experienced before. Finally was brought back to life and came back in his body.
I'll agree all this is pretty the classic 'afterlife' experience. But the rest is rather interesting.
When he woke up after the operation, he told about his experience to his doctor. Of course, the doctor did not believe him, stating that it was not the first time one of his patients told similar stories. He said that he thought there was probably some kind of reaction in the brain which produced these experiences.
But the guy told him something that blew the doctor away: while he was flotting in the room, he found himself under the operation table where he noticed that there was a plate under it, with information the table such as the year of fabrication, company, etc. The guy told him about this since he remembered some of the information that was o nthat plate. The doctor wasn't even aware that such a plate existed, but when he went to see it with the patient, it turned out to be exactly how he had described it. Both became christians after this incident. I think the guy wrote a book, but it's probably in french.
The question I keep askign myself when I hear such stories is this one:
- Is there a scientific explanation for such experiences ? As in is there a reaction in the brain etc. ?
- If there is indeed a reaction in the brain who could explain these phenomenon, then how on earth did it developp in an evolutionnary pattern and what is the advantage from a natural selection point of view since it happens only when you are dead ?
