[[The mind can produce seemingly reality which isn’t really]]

Very true

[[But many divrse people come up with essentially the same story?]]

Yes, true also- I think it may be because of a defensive mechanism in the brain that causes the brain. To stop processing pain, trauma, disease etc and which funnels the remaining concentration into pleasant thoughts to aid in the comfort during the process of dying- perhaps a final act of grace by God to undeserving humankind. If true, this might explain the common experiences. There might be other reasons or different reasons, but just like there is a “Universal Moral Code” written on everyone’s heart, perhaps there is a “Universal Protection Process” that aids folks as they are dying-

Somehow, that just doesn't gel for me. How would such a morse code come into being? Cannot be evolution, since you are dying anyways, and will have no chance to pass this advantage on. What mechanism plants this in us?

And the myriad experiences many people report... if this was just neurons firing while you passed on, what of the commonality of experiences, such as the very-common life review? The discussions with various entities? To me, just dying neurons wouldn't author such intense activities, it seems they would just fade to black.

I note you had a horrible experience in your NDE. I would offer this: The memories of this spiritual event still are stored in biological matter, which you tell me you were poisoned and in severe fever. Could it be your memories were compromised by these factors?

This is all above my pay grade. It's all speculation. I suppose we can meet later, after we both die, and I can do a Victory Dance and rub it in your face that I was right. 😁
