Do you believe it really is a spiritual experience, or is it just chemistry?

There are literally tens of thousands of reported cases from people who apparently believe what they are experiencing is real. Even clinical studies don't suggest that it is merely due to brain chemistry-it needs proper investigation but it can't be dismissed as supernatural mumbo jumbo.

I believe in NDE, because it has happened to me. It was a very Spiritual experience for me. Mostly because I wanted to stay, and was told I had to go back. I woke up sobbing, after being in a coma for 6 days. It is an experience I will NEVER forget, because I know what happens when you die. What a wonderful spiritual experience I had.

I completely, without doubt, believe it is a spiritual experience and has nothing to do with chemistry.

I don't think there is "god" as we think of it. Maybe, though, every bit of matter, has a very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very small amount of consiousness. This is really less. But when some group of atoms work together in order, it multiplies. We are nothing but trillions of atoms working together with such presion and coordination that consciousness develops. Whe we "die", this conscionness dissappears as the atoms stop working together in order. Maybe this consciousness dissappearing is what we experience in NDEs.
It is chemistry and spirituality both, but we can't answer how it works.
How did you like my theory? I developed it on my own. Do you think I don't know what I am talking or is it good?

I think it's more of a dream like experience, since we have an idea what we are going to see we see it before me die. And since the bible says were "Sleeping" that gives me more of a reason to believe that. I dont think people go to heaven/hell right away but have "Dreams" till its time for them to wake up

I would go with idea that the experiences are induced by the release of DMT
