Recreating Near-Death Experiences: A Cognitive Approach (open access)

Recreating Near-Death Experiences: A Cognitive Approach

Abstract: I describe a guided meditation that, when used by near-death experiencers (NDErs), recreates fragments of their NDEs. The meditation is based on Michael Persinger's neurological theory regarding the "God Experiences," and its success supports that theory. The present study included too few subjects to support quantitative analysis, and must be regarded as a pilot study.
