More and more often recently, accounts of after death experiences are being documented. People who are said to have died as a result of injuries or disease and come back to life have told of their experience. They claim to have seen flashes of light and visions during the time that they were clinically dead.
It is fascinating to note that most of these people tell very similar stories. Remember, at the time of the events they are dead as far as everybody around them is concerned – they have no pulse and are not breathing.
More often than not, people claim to first see visions of lights, followed by pictures of loved ones and family members, all of whom flash before their very eyes. They claim that it’s peaceful, and they characterize it by the vision of a tunnel.
The fact that so many people share the same exact experience has led many to believe that there must be some truth behind all of these claims. After all, how could so many documented chronicles all be so similar?
But the medical community tends to be disdainful of this theory. They explain the vision of a tunnel as a lack of blood in the retina. Also, the brain is dealing with a crisis and this might explain the flashing images before the eyes.
There is no doubt, however, in the minds of those people who have been through an after death experience, that it was as real as anything else in their lives.
This is one of life’s mysteries that won’t be solved in the near future, if ever. Perhaps we are not supposed to understand it, or at least not until it happens to us when our time comes?
Either way, this is a very interesting phenomenon that doctors continue to explore, as it may shed some light on the functions of the brain. Makes you wonder what’s really going on after we die, doesn’t it? I guess we’ll never really know until that day comes for ourselves.
