1. Have we lastly found the solution to the 'after death'
experience?
A brand new scientific analysis has recommended that dying rats experience an abnormal rush of
intense brain activity throughout their last moments of life. This enlarged brain operation may be in
line with (and thusly explain) Human accounts of close to or after death experiences, as reported by
many individuals around the world.
Nearly a fifth of all individuals who have survived a cardiac arrest have reported having an 'After
Death Experience' or ADE. This is quite an alarming statistic, especially as the ADE tends to have a
profound effect within the existence of the survivor. Having an ADE is seen by many as convincing
proof of an spirit world or a continuance of the individual's soul after death.
Likewise, a 'Near Death Experience' (or NDE) is considered to be parallel to the ADE, but noticeably
occurs while the patient remains to be technically alive. Many individuals who encounter NDE's
report a balanced sensation or 'From Body Experience' (OBE), as well as encounters with angels,
dead family and loved ones. Both NDE and ADE survivors recurrently describe traversing an
extended tunnel in direction of an intense light.
Negotiations of life after death appear in early scriptures, archaeological sites and many subsequent
works of viewpoint and have fascinated (and frightened) Persons, no matter of creed, ethnic group
or culture, since time immemorial.
After convalescing from surgery in 1979, Jazmyne Cidavia-DeRepentigny of Hull, Georgia, USA,
reported a stereotypical NDE account which was ultimately published in the book 'Beyond The Light'
by P.M.H Atwater in 1994. Like some people, Jazmyne recounts information of her surgery that may
be very difficult to obtain were she lying.
Jazmyne states that "I was perched over my body. I could see and listen to everything which was
being said and done. I left the area for a minute and then came back to where my body lay. I knew
why I died. It was because I could not breathe. I had a tube along my throat and the health staff
didn't have an oxygen mask on my nostril. I had also been provided excessive sedative".
She went to describe her efforts to get rid of the tube from her throat from a rather traumatic
account.

Prior to that aforementioned study, it was accepted incontrovertible fact that brain activity ceases
once the heart stops. This has now been demonstrated as being untrue, at the least as far as rats are
concerned. It's also the strongest presumption to date concerning the reasons of ADEs, OBEs and
NDEs.
One of those scientists responsible for these results, Dr. George Mashour of the University of Ann
Arbour, Michigan, USA said that the team was "surprised with the high levels of motion" in the
rodents. "In truth, at near-death many identified electric signatures of consciousness exceeded levels
found within the waking state, suggesting the brain is able of well-organized electric activity over
the initial stage of clinical death." He said.
2. The team's lead scientist, Dr. Jimo Borjigin added that "This research paper tells us that drop of
oxygen or both oxygen and glucose during cardiac arrest can stimulate neural activity that is
characteristic of mindful processing,"
However, Dr. Martin Coath in the University of Plymouth, United kingdom was somewhat critical of
the team's findings.
Dr. Coath said that, because the rats were anaesthetized, the findings better demonstrated the
unconscious brain's reaction to a life-threatening deficit of blood flow and oxygen. He also said that
the study hadn't essentially proved that any 'sensitive cognizant processing' had in reality taken
place, suggesting the wording of that conclusion was "a bit of a stretch". He commented that, while
the consequences were "genuinely interesting" they were as well "hardly surprising".
The outcomes of the study will no doubt be of great interest to numerous in the scientific
community, as well as religious groups, those interested in the mystical and those who have
experienced an ADE or NDE.
