There are more and more documented cases of after death experiences. Because of serious injury or illness, people have been pronounced dead by the medical profession and then been revived later. These same people have also told of their experiences during the time they were considered to be no longer alive.
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.
There are many documented accounts that say exactly the same thing. For this reason, a lot of people are convinced this is what must have really happened.
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.
Those who have been through this kind of experience, however, have no problem believing it all to have been quite real.
It seems that this is to remain a mystery as it can't be proved either way. Unless science and spirituality manage to somehow come together in the future, we might only know the truth when we meet our own end,
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.
