Episode 21: Titan (and others) discuss dying, Near Death Experiences and their purpose and meaning.

This week I am a day early as I just could not keep the spirits at bay about this subject!!! I ask Titan to explain Near Death Experience (NDE) , and what does it signify. Popping in to talk about the experience of dying are a young man who died in a car crash, and a pilot in the Second World War who noticed something strange when his comrades were killed in action. Finally, an epic piece of music called "Resurrection " by Gustav Mahler that I recently heard in the movie "Maestro." It is a piece of music that can almost create a sense of what it must be like dying and being transported from death to the next Dimensions of existence. The magnetic pull of such an experience is hard to resist, and only the strongest ones who fight that as it is not their time, and pull away from returning to their familiar energy Consciousness - will stay in their bodies and be able say what it was really like to "die." “Rise again, yes, rise again thou wilt!” Then God in all His glory comes into sight. A wondrous light strikes us to the heart. All is quiet and blissful. Lo and behold: there is no judgment, no sinners, no just men, no great and no small; there is no punishment and no reward. A feeling of overwhelming love fills us with blissful knowledge and illuminates our existence.   ( Gustav Mahler Symphony no. 2 "Resurrection" )Oh pain! You all-pervader! I have escaped from you! Oh death! You all-conqueror! Now you are defeated! With wings that I earned, In ardent pursuit of love, I will float away To the light that no eye has reached! I will die to live! Conductor Leonard Bernstein.Sheila Armstrong, soprano Janet Baker, mezzo-soprano Edinburgh Festival Chorus London Symphony Orchestra (C) ALL their respective owners.  Used as Fair Use and for critical purposes to explain how this piece of music can almost create an NDE to the listener as he is transported from life to death and Resurrection and the next Dimensions of existence.  Please watch the original recording live in Ely Cathedral here, and marvel at the energy and enthusiasm Leonard Bernstein shows conducting the piece.https://youtu.be/wgtSa6XYWdE?si=-nFAYF7N_gEm0m7_Please feel free to contact me or ask me questions, or give me feedback;[email protected]
