However, the implication of those results are subjected to heightened scrutiny because they challenge the assumptions of dominant materialist paradigms. In response to that scrutiny, researchers in those areas are extremely scrupulous about controls. Some studies have as many a quadruple blinds. That does not mean that the conscious survival of death is proven.

The only significant thing is that people have similar reports, seeing bright lights, having life reviews, feeling an ample amount of love (in positive NDES) and meeting spirits. There are some negative experiences too, but the majority are similar. Like you said, the explanation could be that it is biological
