________________ they had close brush with death involving an unusual experience means one in twenty American have survived NDE when being verge of death or having close call involved unusual experience Lis t of internatural literature on NDE is small but growing e.g. British parapsychological literature Crookall, Swiss studies of falling mountain chambers (Heim), study of death bed vision in India Osis & Haraldson, Contemporary studies in England (Grey), 'Italy-Giovette, Zambia Morse, China, Japan-Becker, South pacific (Kellehear) & Australia-Suther land, They are ancient as Plato & contemporary as T.V. talk show. Kenneth Ring look differently between survivors of illness, accident & suicide. Suicide survivors have peaceful experience at 1st but later none entering light. Illness victim less likely to feel the initial peace but more likely to enter the light Age, Social class, race & martial status have little influence on NDE explicit & implicit religiousness also had little experience Bruce Greyson - Age gender did not influence N.D.E. but type of death influence. NDE relate to the suddenness of death. Nancy Evans Bush & Bruce Greyson report on distressing NDE identity 3 types. 1. Prototypical NDE with tunnel & bright light experienced as t errifying 2. Sense of nonexistence, eternal void or absurdity 3. Classical hellish, imagery, or tormenting demons & agonizing pain. 4. Their experience of phenomena may be fearful & hellish &: phenomena itself is crucial to understanding. Suggestion who had 'N.D.E. 1) Medical staff should assume that unconscious dying patients may be able to hear what is being said around the bed Be careful what you say. Reason person who is unconscious is not fully unconscious; his brain is working & he may be in state in between waking & sleeping state if he is not instate of deep sleep he can hear what is going on in the surrounding. Respectful touching of outlining the patients body help reorient them back to their bodies. As senses are not fully dead senses have become weak on death bed so if senses are given jerk may get accelerate & health may reorient. 3. Listen for clues of N.D.E. Don't press your own beliefs about N.D.E. onto patients but respectfully listen to them. 2. 49 Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
