The “tunnel of light” by which the dying persons reportedly travel to the afterlife, the cherubs and other heavenly creatures who welcome them on the other side are mere hallucinations.
“About 60 percent of all people who were taken to an intensive care unit spent some time in a state of “near death,” says Oleg Vasiliev, doctor of highest category, staff member of the Institute of Resuscitation Studies of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences. “After being brought back to life, they told stories about the bright light they were taken to as if by a fast elevator, the faces of their deceased loved ones they saw in the ‘afterlife’, some even said that they had been welcomed by Jesus Christ. However, the latest studies show that all those visions stem from the physiological processes that occur in the damaged brain of a patient. "
