Years ago after getting sober I had a minor job in a hospital and became friendly with a few doctors. One day I asked about near death experiences. About the stories of seeing loved ones across a river or floating above the room and seeing your body.
I was told as the body breaks down a morphine type chemical is released which can cause hallucinations. The shaman or holy man was born out of a need to explain this and religion followed.
So what happens when you die I asked?
The doctor said nothing except to live in the memories of others.
Deflating to say the least... but I still say my prayers (when I remember) before going to sleep.
