Yes of course. It MUST be anything except what it seems to be! Nearly all of the knee-jerk scientific speculations, including DMT release, have been ruled out. Nor do any scientific explanations account for various ESP related phenomena that commonly accompany NDE events.

My girlfriends father was in the hospital at some point in his 20's and he apparently died for something like 72 minutes.

I want to talk to him more about the experience to get more detail but from what I have heard, the was no god per se but he did have visions of his as-yet unborn children and other things that made him want to "come back".

This is an incredibly intelligent man. I have no explanation for this event but in my mind, I believe it had to be a deep coma or something similar.

Nevertheless, I can certainly understand how it could be perceived as a supernatural event.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
