I know. Myself, I always figured that was PROBABLY what it was, and if anything was to come afterwards, you probably wouldn’t be coming back to talk about it. Of course, that was before I experienced what I did. It was nothing like what I had read, there was no tunnel with a bright light, but rather, instantly, I became aware that I was in a room along with someone else. On the opposite side of the room, the door was open and yes, it was just pure light coming through. I have never had a dream where I asked myself if I was dreaming, so that part really stunned me, even when I was asking myself that question. When my options had been made clear to me (I think by the person in the room), and I made my decision, boom, I was back and opening my eyes. Going over this in my head (as I have done ALOT) from the spiritual AND scientific aspects, all I can say is this was certainly no exercise in loss of O2 or anything else for that matter, other than my conciseness was transported to somewhere that we do not normally have access to. Very, VERY weird, but I am certainly glad I was given the opportunity to experience what I did.
Good for you Scooby. Sounds like a wonderful experience.
