American Bryce Bond was taken seriously ill and shortly after being admitted to hospital he underwent a NDE (near-death experience).
He remembered suddenly passing through a long tunnel toward a beautiful light and then...

"I hear a bark and racing toward me is a dog I once had, a black poodle called Pepe.
When I see him, I feel an emotional floodgate open. Tears fill my eyes. He jumps into my arms, licking my face.
As I hold him, he is real, more real than I had ever experienced him. I can smell him, feel him, hear his breathing and sense his great joy at being with me again.

I put my dog to the ground and step forward....

A very strong voice is heard in my consciousness. 'Not yet' it says. I scream out 'Why?' Then this inner voice says 'What have you learned and who have you helped?' I am dumbfounded
The voice seems to be without as well as within. Everything stops for a moment. I have to think of what was asked of me. I cannot answer what I have learned, but I can answer who I have helped.

I feel the presence of my dog around me as I ponder those two questions.

Then I hear barking and other dogs appear, dogs I once had. As I stand there in what seems to be an eternity. I want to embrace, and be absorbed, and merge. I want to stay. The sensation of not wanting to come back is overwhelming."

Bryce was also greeted by all of his relatives who had passed on before him. He experienced these loved ones as somewhat younger in form and face than when he had last seem them, healthier and happier.

He remembered racing backward through the same tunnel he had entered when it was time to leave and reviving in time to witness a hypodermic needle being plunged into his arm.
"I heard a voice say 'Welcome back.'
I never asked who said that, nor did I care.
I was told by the doctor that I had been 'dead' for over ten minutes..."

All this talk of religion, but it's how you live your life that is the all-important thing.
If you set out each day to do all the goodness and kindness that you can, and to do no harm to man or beast, then you are walking the highest path.
And when your time is up, if you can leave the earth a better place than you found it, then yours will have been a life well lived.
