naw... it more Universal consciousness rather than Global (Earth centered)
i'm animist...meaning every stick, stone, glass of water has a consciousness... life forms goes without saying
a gnat has as much inalienable rights to its existance as a human that needs a brain to connect with its senses (5 mundane senses, more than 1 of the
ESP variety)
As to the video on page 1:
that brain Doctor is busy-busy-busy!
Dr Robert Spetzler, in Phoenix, back in May '97 also did my brain stem Aneurism that had actually ruptured/ was leaking before he even took my
case.
In the operating room/ICU,
(not sure as i was in the midst of a 15 day Coma) i also journeyed to the place of Light, spoke with some authoritive figures in the place... was
asked if i wished to 'stay' in that place (including that serene state of bliss)
and i said 'no thank you' as i knew that taking the easy-road was not acceptable.. I knew it was preferable to return to the world-of-the-living,
and experience my quota of trial, stress & trouble & struggle (in the Buddhist tradition)...while i had the chance.
[[ after all, my last episode of consciousness in the form of man, was back when the iceage was going and i was a group shaman in a 'clan of the
cave-bear setting'...then a indeterminate period of time when imy consciousness could have been locked into the face of an asteroid or
something.]]
There's also another video, of a female Doctor who had a stroke and was conscious all during the episode... She has since went on to generate a
cottage industry, & speak at positive energy workshops... recounting the same physological imparements i had, but hers has a very spiritual/mystical
bent to them--- i'm more pragmatic, earthy about it all.
Phoenix is awesome... there are three of us brain damaged, NDEs, that have intersected with Dr Spetzler...at different times
