What is happening to people who have near death experiences and such?
Quoting: Peepaws The brain translates the experience to the best of its capacity. Near Death Experiences are real but what people see is never accurate.
Are they not going to the other side, or at least having contact with some kind of information source?
Quoting: Peepaws They're not going to the deeper realms, if you do go to "the other side" there is no coming back, they're on the edge where time and space mean less and the connection to everything is stronger and therefore feeds them knowlesge.
Do you know what is happening in these circumstances??
Quoting: Peepaws Yes, your brain perceives the deeper reality but being unable to cope with what it actually sees it feeds you with an appriximation.
I.e your mind sees your own essence reflecting as a being of ultimate good and coming to you with guidance but is unable to comprehend that an element of yourself is essentially the god so it procudes a religious figure or a family member image surrounding it proper emotions and symbolic meanings.
What actually is there is yourself in the purest form coming to you in the moment of great need, because time and space don't exist on a certain level it is entirely possible and common in fact for a segment of yourself to come to you while perceived as a separate entitity while in reality being a section of your own self, your brain however is incapable of processing all of this therefore it creates a dissociated image and imbues it with symbolic meaning associated with glory and sanctity.
