Re: understanding death
I would never knock any "faith" or relgion but too many people tend to find fear in death from religion. It's unfortunate really. Perhaps it is the "powers that be" who want "control" who caused that with their "additions" to such texts?
I personally, know of only one person who took something negative from a NDE. As I'm sure you've noticed, for most, it's life changing for the better. They gain appreciation, and love.. I don't believe in coincidence, so this seems to be true regardless of my own experiences.
My first true "teacher" used to say (she always used Biblical terms): "the only sin is to worry (or fear)". To me this transulated into "I have nothing to fear".. This has become true to my reality. Even in my darkest moments I have never been afraid, and I figure that comes from a positive understanding of life and death.
I am glad it helped you zaina..
In light, of love
