monitoring apparatus when they had their eyes closed & appeared to be unconscious.
Reason may be they were not fully unconscious or people really being resuscilated could probably feel some manipulations being don & hear what was going on. Hearing is the last sense lost you can imagine a very clear visual image when you can only hear something so dying person could build up fairly accurate picture.
Worlds beyond tunnel & out of body experience in this state the outside world is no longer real & inner worlds are, & whatever we imagine will seem real. : What we will imagine when we know we are dying?
It is world they expect or hope to see. Mind may turn to people they have known who have died before them or to the world they hope to enter the next like other images these seems real."
NDE gives people to glimpse into nature of their own minds that is hard to get in any other way Drugs can produce mystical experience NDE can strike anyone & show them what they never knew before that their body is only a lumps of flesh Lack of oxygen produces increased activity through disinhibition but eventually it will stops this activity produces the mental models that give rise to consciousness. . There will be no more experience no more self NDE are simply one of many experiences mediated by right temporal lobe variety of clinical situation trigger psychological experience. Which are similar to NDEs including dying child birth, severe child abuse, severe emotional or physical stress, premonitions of death, after death visitation, religious prayer & spiritual meditationl.
When experience occur?
Do they occur in the few minutes between the death of body & brain or are the artifacts of resuscitation & secondary falsifications after the fact? (Morse & Neppe)
Physician interpret NDE as 2nd an falsifications, distortion of man's perception of his environment while the brain is malfunctioning Negovsky speculates - auditory perception may be preserved when areas of cerebral cortex serving vision has ceased functioning & after motor activity ceased without any mystical explanation we can understand why the dying & then revived person can tell us they heard the voices of physicians. The fact that resuscitated people in different countries can recall similar images seen by them during dying or resuscitation does not prove life after death. It can be explained.by dynamics of disintegration of cerebral function due to different resistances to anoxia of various areas of nervous system.
