NDE (aka Near Death Experience)
NDE refers to a broad range of experiences reported by many individuals between the time they have been pronounced clinically dead and when they are somehow resuscitated . The sensations often include detachment from the body, feelings of levitation, extreme fear, total serenity, security or warmth, the experience of absolute dissolution and the presence of a light. According to a Gallup poll, a minimum of 8 million Americans claim to have had a NDE and felt it was a paranormal experience and a glimpse into the afterlife.
