The concept of life after death has long been a subject of intrigue and debate, though it remains unproven by science, despite a Netflix series that suggests otherwise.

Some individuals subscribe to the belief in reincarnation, where karma — the way one lives in this life — determines what happens in the next life after death.

However, the very fact of your existence is nearly impossible. Mathematically speaking, the odds are as if you handed out 2 million dice, each with a trillion sides, rolled them, and had them all land on 439,505,270,846. This improbability is so extraordinary that mathematicians were driven to create an equation to quantify it!

In stark contrast, death is utterly ordinary. It’s the one certainty in life; death is as natural and inevitable as anything else in existence.

Given that death is unavoidable, some people turn to the idea of rebirth as a form of escape. For others, the thought of another chance at life after everything they have done wrong brings comfort.

Many religions teach of heaven and hell, where we either find eternal peace or suffer endless torment. Regardless of what the truth may be, there are those who have shared chilling stories about their experiences of the afterlife.

One such account is found in Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife by Eben Alexander. This book offers a fascinating perspective, giving readers a glimpse beyond the ordinary understanding of life and death.

There are numerous reports of people who claim to have felt the bliss of the afterlife or experienced visions from their past lives.

A case from Ohio is particularly striking. Brian Miller, a 41-year-old truck driver, began to feel chest pain while opening a container. He immediately called 911 and explained his situation to the operator. He was quickly rushed to the hospital, where doctors found that he was suffering from a heart attack caused by a completely blocked main artery.

Though the doctors managed to clear the blockage, Miller went into ventricular fibrillation after he regained consciousness.

In this condition, the heart stops pumping blood, and as ICU nurse Emily Bishop confirmed, "he had no heart rate, no blood pressure, no pulse." Even after performing “strong, fast CPR” and administering electric shocks to Miller’s chest nearly four times, the doctors couldn’t revive him.

However, to their astonishment, he suddenly came back to life 45 minutes after the heart attack.

Miller later described experiencing an "edenic" state of bliss in what he described as a celestial realm. He recalled, "the only thing I remember is starting to see the light and walking toward it."

He found himself walking down a path surrounded by flowers and white light, where he encountered his deceased stepmother, who appeared radiant and joyful. She took hold of his arm and told him, “It’s not your time. You don’t need to be here. We have to take you back. You have things to do.”

According to Bishop, Miller’s pulse returned "out of nowhere," which she found remarkable, considering his brain had been deprived of oxygen for such a long time. Miller firmly believes, "There is an afterlife, and people need to believe in it, big time."
