NDE - Near Death Experience - is it real?

There are many reports of people who were clinically dead for a short time, who came back to life to tell that they separated from their bodies. Those people report such things as seeing themselves and the doctors working on their bodies, or traveling somewhere, meeting their dead relatives, having their lives judged, meeting God or angels, and all sorts of fascinating things. Some people who had that experience managed to provide an accurate description of what the doctors did, and I even read of one account when a person was able to describe a shoe that was sitting on a window ledge outside of the operating room.

I am basically a very scientific minded person, you know, nuts and bolts type. Obviously, my curiosity is aroused by reading about NDE experiences. My soul simply screams, "Please, let those things be real!" My mind wants proof, wants to analyze it, to understand it, and, hopefully, figure out how that could be true.

A person's brain is responsible for storing information and memories, as well as thinking, as we know it. So how can one think, if the body, including the brain, is clinically dead? Moreover, if a person's brain was somehow not quite dead, imagining the experience, how is it possible that the person could 'see' and 'hear' something happening without any obvious means to see and hear? Especially if that something was outside the room? Like a shoe on a window ledge outside?

What is it that transcends the regular senses, as we know them, like sight and hearing, and how can those senses operate without the actual working sensory organs?

There is interesting research studying simple organisms, I mean simple - like mold or fungus, or bugs, or plants - the organisms that have no brain, no eyes and no ears. Apparently those critters are able to learn, to find food, and pass on the information. A very primitive slime mold only one cell thick can find its way through a maze to get to food, and to know the time when something is supposed to happen and to anticipate it.

I have a theory, which you might be interested in reading on my page: Universal Mind. My theory is, in a nutshell, that there is a Universal Mind existing in a parallel dimension, connected to everything in our dimension via particles, atoms and molecules, or even something beyond those. You might ask - why another dimension? Why couldn't this Mind be here, everywhere, in this dimension? Could it be the mind of God? The reason I suggest a parallel dimension is simply because a mind of such a complexity would need some working mechanisms, and if it existed in this dimension, there would be some signs or indications of its existence. There is the Dark Matter. Looks like empty space, but it isn't - it appears to have mass. But where is it hiding? What is it made of? The best scientific minds can only speculate, and, as far as I know, they don't know anything. So we can speculate all we want, and we don't need to be rocket scientists to do that. Speculation is free for all.

The only way to explain how the information can be stored and processed without any visible means (to us), is to speculate that there is a place, like a parallel dimension, that hides the workings of that magnitude and complexity, and has a way to connect to every bit of substance that exists on our plane (in our dimension).

Millions of people have believed for thousands of years that there is a God, and that there is a Heaven. They used to think they were located up there, in heaven. But now, that we can use telescopes to see to the far reaches of the Universe, and we can fly to space, we can see no place, at least not anywhere nearby, where God could reside. All the astronomers can see is a lot of empty space going on forever and ever, permeated by stars. A lot of people lost their faith in God, because the scientists couldn't find any possible place for God to live. That's where the theories of parallel dimensions come in. Wouldn't it make sense?
