An NDE is a hyper-lucid experience associated with perceived consciousness apart from the body occurring at the time of actual or threatened imminent death. Overwhelmingly, those who report NDEs think of them as a "spiritual" experience (a small percentage do not). NDEs may be discussed here from a spiritual or a scientific viewpoint. Scholarly debate is allowed if it's civil. Spirituality discussion is allowed since most NDErs consider it a spiritual event, themselves.
