Mellen-Thomas Benedict's near-death experience
A friend sent this to me recently today is the first chance I had to read it. I found it very interesting and well worth reading and considering.
Mellen-Thomas Benedict's is an artist who survived a near-death experience in 1982. He was dead for over an hour and a half after dying of cancer. At
the time of his death, he rose up out of his body and went into the light. Curious about the universe, he was taken far into the remote depths of
existence, and even beyond, into the energetic void of nothingness behind the Big Bang. During his experience, he was able to learn a great deal of
information concerning reincarnation. Because of his near-death experience, he was able to bring back scientific discoveries. Mr. Benedict has been
closely involved in the mechanics of cellular communication and research dealing with the relationship of light to life called Quantum Biology. This
research is providing dramatic new perspectives on how biological systems work. Mr. Benedict has found that living cells can respond very quickly to
light stimulation resulting in, among other things, high speed healing. He is a researcher, inventor and lecturer who holds six U.S. patents.

First off, a search of US patents issued from 1976 to present shows that no one named Mellen-Thomas Benedict, Mellen Benedict, or thomas Benedict
holds any patents at all.
www.uspto.gov...
It seems doubtful that his patents would have been issued pre-1976 because the story indicates that his "experience" happened in 1982.
On a more personal note, he's selling a book that espouses, "light healing", which I've never seen any scientific evidence of, and seems to be one
of the New Age movements growth industries right now. Anyone that asks you to believe his or her story, and then tries to sell you a book about it
always raises a red flag for me.
Other than that, it's an interesting story.

People who right books do so also because they believe in the relevance of the material.
It seems a point to be taken into consideration with respect to his experience, is in-fact currently receiving a lot of attention.
Neither link is related to the new age
