The NDE reports are certainly interesting to hear about, but they do not necessarily pertain to a karmic being who has "roasted the seeds". We can always, hope, though. :) Today, I was thinking about the last verse in Chapter 6 of the Gita: "And of all yogis, I hold him most fully united who worships Me with faith, his inmost Self absorbed in Me." It had me questioning if there is something unique about each individual yogi's "inmost Self", that maybe the inmost Self is not something that is beyond individuality, and that maybe that uniqueness does not end with the yogi's dropping of the body, but stays around as long as there is a "Me" (i.e. the personal God) around. "Love will swallow you, eat you up completely, until there is no `you,' only love." - Amma

He restarted and told of his "interim" travels and, later in his career "died" from a different cause and wrote about it. With this and all the NDE reports, it looks like you shouldn't worry. Will see if I can get the book title. N. Saved by the Light: http://www.amazon.com/Saved-Light-Dannion-Brinkley/dp/0061008893
