A Taiwanese foundation sponsoring a center that studies near-death experiences has urged those who have had such experiences to tell their stories openly and encourage people to "love this life and have respect for the next life."
The Chou
Ta-kuan Cultural and Educational Foundation, which established the center in
July 2002 to study the impact of near-death experiences, made the appeal during
a gathering in Kaohsiung on Sunday of people who have seen death.
Many people
who have near-death experiences are reluctant to talk about them with others
because they are afraid of being laughed at, according to the foundation, but
the group's founder, Chou Chin-hua, said his organization was willing to serve
as a platform for them to speak out.
He
encouraged people to open their minds, love this life and have respect for the
next life.
Lin
Keng-hsin, a psychiatrist who serves as the research center's chief adviser,
said he found that most of the people he has studied for more than a decade had
very positive aftereffects after nearly dying.
Many of
them began to love life and nature passionately, and suddenly adopted simple
diets, respected the environment, took to helping people, advocated
environmental protection and put a higher priority on their spiritual sides,
Lin said.
Some people
even developed special sensory powers after having had been pronounced
clinically dead or having had been very close to death, said Lin, who published
a report in 2000 chronicling the ordeals of 37 people titled "Do You
Believe In Near-Death Experiences?"
All of
these people on the brink of death experienced dramatic changes in how they
viewed life, and "they all turned into good people," Lin said.
At the
gathering, foundation CEO Chao Cui-hui said there have been several times when
she was so sick she felt she was going to die. At those moments, she had
out-of-body experiences that freed her from her fear of death and left her more
willing to help people in need.
Tung Yi-pu,
a single mother of four, said she has had three near-death experiences, which
led her to stop complaining about life and start dedicating herself to
promoting the public good.
She
recalled that on the brink of death, she was drawn into a whirlpool of bright
light, in which she heard voices chanting prayers. "It's wonderful and
peaceful," she said.

“… When a Human almost dies, they get close to the veil, very close. They are ever so close to the creator's energy and just barely touched by it. When their heart was stopping and their breathing was almost gone, before they were brought back to life with science, they got to touch the hand of God for just an instant. What they saw was magnificent! The energy before them was filled with love and light, filled with family, filled with beauty. There was no strife there. There was no punishment there or even the hint of it. And when they came back from that experience, listen to what they told you. It changed their lives, didn't it? Listen to each one talk about it, for they continued to say, "There is nothing to fear and death is something you experience as a normal transition." Blessed is the Human Being who experiences both death and birth and has the wisdom to report, "Oh, it's uncomfortable, but I'll get through it, because I've done it before." The person who has experienced a near-death experience is no longer afraid to die! What does that tell you? They have seen what is there and they embrace it! …”
