I have a theory that salvia might go farer, and be a genuine DEAD
experience. You have the choice to stay there, and they send a copy
of you on earth. This does not contradict comp, because the copy,
despite being fully conscious all the time, get your memory back
slowly, so that the copy feels becoming "you", but "you" can see
your "original self" staying there. This is frequent in the salvia
reports (the copy effect, or the max effect as I call it in the
entheogen.net forum)
.With comp the NDE is predictable, and the logic G and G* can be
described as the logic of the near inconsistency state, which is the
normal logic of the self-referentially correct machine (there are
cul-de-sac accessible from any state). In a sense, life is a near
death experience all along. What is still amazing, and might
contradict comp, is that we can live NDE or DE and come back with
some realist memories of the event. .."
Who told you about "a real???" NDE? Live people imagine various
fables.
Hi John, sorry, I was probably unclear, by a real NDE I mean when
someone concretely approach death. My favorite collection is given by
the plane crash investigations. I call that sometime third person NDE,
and they are or not related to what is called NDE and which concerns
usually the first person report (the light, the tunnel, ...).
So, when you are in a plane, and the plane fall 5000 miles, you do a
near death experience, with or without the usual first person NDE
account.
In some context, by a "non real" NDE, I can also mean a NDE brought
by the use of a drug (like DMT or salvia), as opposed as the
experience brought by going concretely near death, like when falling
from a mountain, or surviving a plane crash.
Congrats to your 'theory' about Salvia, - still within your
imagination.
All theories are within our imagination. But the one brought by salvia
can be shown to be also in the imagination of all universal machine.
But it belongs to G* - G, and is not communicable as such.
Fable, I could say, about the "COPY", the "SENDING B A C K to
Earth, etc. etc.
That's a report of experience. It is like a dream report. Nobody
should take the content as something believed or even believable.
All
these are good for discussions on the Everything list - no merit in
my opinion.
I tried to get 'entheogen.net': Google did not find it.

My username there is salvialover24.
Nobody "CAME BACK" from a real NDE or DE especially not with REALIST
Memories. Fantasies - maybe.
Sorry, Bruno, I don't want to spoil your game or good feeling. Just
chat.
No problem. I will come back on this some day, perhaps, but the NDE is
rather easy to explain in the comp theory/belief.
I don't insist on that, as the notion of NDE is a bit hard for many to
keep being rational on, but this is just one more symptom of the
Aristotelian widespread superstition in "Matter", "primary
physicalness", etc.
With salvia, on me and on others, I have also got a better
understanding of the paradoxical nature of any theology. It is morbid
subject matter. But we need to use it a little bit to grasp where the
physical reality comes from, when we assume computationalism.

When a (human or other) complexity dissolves (= death) nobody comes
back to tell the stories. This comes from a 'participant' and long
time partner in OUIJA-board sessions of honest friends. I still
cannot explain those miraculous experiences (saved my life once)
coming allegedly from 'dead' benefactors I knew before they died.
I do not support the reference to the BIG journals (had ~100
publications, some in such, then was editor of a 'smaller' one) -
it is 'click-stuff' and refereed by well selected (opinionated)
scientists mostly.
I agree. "impact factor" and "big name" leads to self-sustained
argument per authority.
However the reference to the Nobel prize lost its credibility e.g.
with certain (peace)Prize assignment going to a war-monger
politician.
I agree very much. Despite I was inclined to believe that Obama
might make some progressive change, I find absurd to give a price
before seeing him doing anything.
I will ask for the Nobel prize in medicine and I will promised to
the work after :)
Since then Obama has signed the NDAA bill, which is a mysterious
frightening fact, and since he is in power, he has killed many
civilians by using the drones in an unprecedented manner, may be
there should be something like a withdrawal of price (that happened
to me, BTW!).
Even in sciences it occurred that hypothetical and fantasy-based
ideas were awarded the Prize
Indeed. But that's OK. Big genius are the one saying big stupidities.
(e.g. circumstances of the Big Bang etc.). Not to mention the
questionable lit.
What does an agnostic like myself believe? that we don't know 'it'.
Some non-toxic and non-addictive drugs provokes NDE or alike.

The crash investigation reports gives interesting reports on third
person person NDE. You can see the beneficial effect on some people.
Good to stay agnostic. The fun consists in trying theories and
testing them, not in taking any of them as a truth, ever.

I have not read it nor do I intend to; let me know when something
like that shows up in Science or Nature or Physical Review letters.
