![]() ![]() Terminal lucidity, also known as rallying or the rally, is an unexpected return of mental clarity and memory, or suddenly regained consciousness that occurs in the time shortly before death in patients suffering from severe psychiatric or neurological disorders. Other studies involve a phenomenon called “ terminal lucidity” which also show that brain activity increases before death. ![]() The intact silver cord and the point of no return shows that permanent, irreversible bodily death never occurs in NDEs and that a biological component to NDEs does exist. The near-death experiencer frequently “snaps” back into their body with a jolt. At this point, the silver cord has stretched close to its breaking point and returning to their physical body occurs very quickly like stretching a rubber band and letting go of one end. This point of no return is represented in NDEs by a barrier of some kind such as a river, a fence or wall, a door, a line, or simply a deceased loved one(s) or the Being of Light. Near-death experiencers frequently reach a “point of no return” which cannot be crossed unless permanent, irreversible bodily death occurs. It is believed that the NDE does not involve the silver cord becoming severed otherwise, there would be no NDE and irreversible bodily death would occur. Many near-death and out-of-body experiencers have described seeing this “umbilical-like” cord connecting their spirit body to their physical body which religious traditions refer to as the “ silver cord.” Just as a baby’s umbilical cord must be severed for the baby to experience life, the silver cord must be severed for the spirit body to experience permanent spiritual life. Near-death studies reveal that an “ umbilical-like cord” connects the spirit body to the physical body which is disconnected at the time of irreversible death. That there is a biological component cannot be denied. These dying brain studies suggest the existence of a biological component to NDEs. Her case is considered to be one of the strongest cases of veridical evidence in NDE research because of her ability to describe the unique surgical instruments, the surgical procedures used on her, and her ability to describe in detail these events while she was brain dead. Her remarkably detailed veridical (i.e., verified) out-of-body observations during her surgery were later verified to be true. During the time that Reynolds was in brain death standstill, she experienced an NDE. ![]() After removing the aneurysm, she was restored to life. The operation is known as “ deep hypothermic circulatory arrest” (DHCA) or “standstill” which required that Reynolds’s body temperature be lowered to 60 degrees, her heartbeat and breathing stopped, her brain waves flattened, and the blood drained from her head. In 1991, Reynolds underwent a rare operation to remove a giant basilar artery aneurysm in her brain. The NDE of Pam Reynolds (1956–2010) is a case in point. While these dying brain studies show consciousness increasing BEFORE brain death, near-death studies provide descriptions of consciousness increasing and continuing AFTER brain death – but before permanent irreversible bodily death. Bruce Greyson et al (2022) have commented in a recent paper on this subject here: Recent Report of Electroencephalogram of a Dying Human Brain. This study also corresponds with a 2013 study involving the brains of dying rats which discovered a surge of the rats’ brain activity before death. This latest dying brain scan study also affirms that a surge of brain activity occurs after the heart stops beating and before brain death. This suggests that people may actually see their life “flash before their eyes” when they die affirming NDEs concerning the so-called life review. During the 30 seconds before and after the man’s heart stopped, his brain waves were remarkably similar to those seen during dreaming, memory recall, and meditation. Concussions.The discovery that life may flash before your eyes at death was made accidentally when a man died during a routine brain scan. “He’s dizzy when he stands up”: an introduction to initial orthostatic hypotension.
