I just finished reading a book called, A Life After Death Experience written by a lady named Elizabeth Jean Levy. I have never read anything like this before.
This author died in a hospital emergency room from double pneumonia after repeated attempts to save her life. Eventually her body was moved to the hospital morgue and covered with a sheet.
In her book she describes in great detail exactly what happened to her following her demise. She talks about her journey through the tunnel to the light and there she was met by a radiant celestial being who was so exquisitely beautiful, it took her breath away.
She goes on to say how she became part of the radiance which surrounded her and the feeling of ecstasy she had never know before. The angelic-like being informed this author that she was to return and write a book with the information that was going to be given to her; that superstition, fear and dogma would be erased as the result of the explanations in this book; that science, philosophy and religion are all one and the same and we are all a part of that one-ness.
She explains emotional self liberation, removing feelings of inferiority, telepathy, exorcisms, angels, all the methods of healing, transcendentalism, transfiguration and the rapture here and now.
Each subject is described in great detail and how to accomplish it.
The author writes simply in everyday language but profound in thought. She explains it is not a book on religion but a "thought provoking attitude adjustment" on life and death eliminating fear of the "unknown."
The book can be purchased at Amazon.com. There is also a web site if you want to read more on it. A LifeAfterDeathExperienceBook.com.
If you never read another book in your life, you can't miss reading this one. Emerson

I have read a number of these books and they are very compelling. However I really wonder if the scientific explanation of the brain releasing tons of endorphins or some similar chemical is not the explanation. In any case, its comforting to know one might be eased out of this vail of tears.

I've read a number of these books also. You may be correct about the endorphins. They certainly play an important part of our brain chemistry.
The accounts I have read from the individuals who have undergone the life after death experience or a near death experience all describe the same tunnel; that there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
This book is very compelling because this woman describes being greeted by a celestial being; that she was being given information to take back and put in book form.
What really grabbed my curiosity about this particular book is that this woman had experienced an angelic being appearing before her, her husband and two other adult members in the home, although the celestial being was calling only this woman by name and tell her there was a call for her.
Now four people who witnessed this apparition aren't all crazy at the same time. This appearance happened many months before she actually underwent the life after death experience in a hospital emergency room.
