Are you joking?

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Those who invented the word NDE could not find a better word to describe people who die and then come back to life.

But that wasn't what they were describing, since dead people do not come back to life. Not ever. Dead is dead. The first NDEs were so-called because that what the instruments showed - people were near death. I find hard to believe your claim that no one could come up with a better term. 'Post-Death Experience' fairly leaps to mind.

That is not true.
There are books.......

...........that talk about all these experiences and they clearly say that as soon as the brain is off the consciousness take over.

I confess to not having read Ms Atwater's book. I've read a synopsis of it, however, and it seems to be a collection of anecdotes. Anecdotes are not evidence. On the other hand, I have read some of Moody's work regarding NDEs and OBEs and I find it remarkably unconvincing.

This is also in line with my yoga philosophy.

With all due respect, I don't give a rat's char-broiled arse about your yoga philosophy, except to this extent: If you believe that yoga exercises are good for you, you're probably right. But when you adopt yoga (or anything else) as a philosophy, you're that much more apt to seek out things that agree with what you already believe, without doing all that messy critical thinking that's supposed to take place.

Once again you fall in the corral of dogma. Who told you that that memory is clearly a brain function?
Physical science?

*chuckle* When damage to the brain (from injury, disease, or something else) results in impaired memory, it isn't in the least dogmatic to decide that memory is a brain function. Couple this with the established fact that specific areas of the brain affect and control memory and we're left with the position that to DENY that memory is a brain function is intellectually perverse.

Ah, this science that pretend to exit his limit and penetrate in a different dimension.

On the contrary, science accepts built-in limits. It's woo-woos like yourself who want to chuck science, decide you don't need it, and insist that any fuzzy-headed notion that makes you feel good deserves to be legitimately placed on an equal footing with the work of men and women who are actually figuring out how the universe works.

Have a good day Boru.

Haven't had a bad day yet, mate.
