Why are NDEs touted as these logic-defying experiences?
From my understanding, you near death, the brain releases a certain chemical(s) which causes alterations in perception/cognition. What exactly is the mystery here?
NDEs are simply altered states of consciousness. No different from taking hallucinogens. People here tend to mystify them and speak of NDEs as if they give insight into some afterlife or some hidden world(s) of consciousness. If I am severely mistaken, please let me know.
