Echoes of Eternity: Near-Death Experiences and the Soul’s ResonanceDOI: 10.4236/oalib.1112042, PP. 1-7 Subject Areas: Philosophy Keywords: Religion Near-Death Experiences, Soul, Eternity, Bible, Qur’an, Hinduism, Mind, Brain, Conscience, Islam, Hereafter, Barzakh, Imam Sadiq, Christianity, Mortality, Catholicism, Purgatory, Afterlife, Other Dimension, Metaphysics Abstract This paper explores the profound and enigmatic phenomenon of near-death experiences (NDEs) through the lenses of science, spirituality, and biblical accounts, illustrating how these experiences bridge the gap between the physical and the metaphysical. Central to this exploration is examining recurring motifs within NDEs, such as out-of-body experiences, encounters with divine beings, and transformative visions of otherworldly realms. These elements reinforce the universality of NDEs across different cultures and resonate deeply with biblical narratives, such as Paul’s celestial vision in 2 Corinthians [1] and John’s Revelation [1]. Through comparative analysis, this study highlights the transformative impacts of NDEs, which often lead to increased compassion, a reevaluation of life priorities, and profound spiritual awakenings. The narratives of individuals who have experienced NDEs, alongside scriptural echoes [2], suggest a deeper spiritual dimension that transcends materialistic interpretations of existence. This paper invites a reevaluation of traditional views on life and death, proposing that the soul’s journey may extend beyond the known physical realm, resonating through the echoes of eternity.
