			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One day when I was 6 years old, I woke up from my afternoon nap and cried sadly. I went to my dad in the kitchen and told him, &#8220;Dad, I don&#8217;t want to die!&#8221;</p>
<p>My dad smiled and said, &#8220;Don&#8217;t worry son. We won&#8217;t die so soon.&#8221;</p>
<p>When I grew up, I would have this unpleasant thought once a while. &#8220;When I die, I would disappear completely from this universe.  I mean I would really disappear. No more me. No more senses. No more feeling. Nothing. The world still moves on&#8230; without me. I exist no more.&#8221;</p>
<p><span id="more-1146"></span>Every time I thought of this, my chest sunk. My heart bottomed. I was scared and hopeless. It is just the matter of time when that day arrives.</p>
<p>When I began to think of &#8220;What happens after I die?&#8221; I would struggle to avoid thinking into it. I dare not face it. But often, I couldn&#8217;t avoid it and continued to think deeper. And that made my heart sunk one more time.</p>
<p>Avoidance. This was how I faced this scary thought of dying.</p>
<p><strong>How about reincarnation?</strong></p>
<p>Of course I&#8217;ve heard of reincarnation. There was a story on how a Tibetan monk leader knew where he would reincarnate to when he was dying. After he died, his followers went to search for him who had reincarnated. Indeed there was a house as described by him before dying. After the followers found the small kid, they would test him first to make sure he is their reincarnated leader.</p>
<p>The followers showed several brushes to the kid and asked him which one was his. The kid would then pick up exactly the same brush he used in his previous life. The followers continued the test with his other belongings. And the kid always picked up the correct thing belonged to him. With this confirmation, the followers would accept the kid as their leader again.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve also watch a TV documentary showing someone who was hypnotized and mentioned about his past life. He died as a sailor when his ship sank. Indeed, further checking confirmed the name of the mentioned sunken ship and sailor.</p>
<p>But with all these evidences, my fear of death still had not faded. I would still feel the sunken heart every time I thought of death. &#8220;Everyone wants to go to Heaven. But no one wants to die.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Finally&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Now, I am happy to say my fear of death has disappeared completely. No matter how I think of disappearing from Earth upon death, I don&#8217;t feel the sunken heart anymore. Why?</p>
<p>Because I&#8217;ve experienced death many times! And I did this with &#8220;<a href="http://jamespang.com/dlc/">Deep Level Communication</a>&#8220;.</p>
<p>In my first 2.5-hour session, I saw my past life as an ancient African leader. I had several followers. And I talked in front of them while standing on a big stone.</p>
<p>&#8220;Forward the time to the day you die in that life period,&#8221; the communicator instructed.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was lying on a stone,&#8221; I said slowly after pausing for a few seconds.</p>
<p>&#8220;How old were you?&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;70 plus,&#8221; I answered.</p>
<p>&#8220;Anyone besides you?&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;My wife,&#8221; I said. &#8220;She was crying&#8230; And she cried just like the way my current wife cries.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Anyone else besides you?&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hmmm&#8230; my young son,&#8221; I said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Is your son related to anyone in your present life?&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;My younger brother,&#8221; I answered.</p>
<p>&#8220;What happened the moment you die,&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;I floated upward and saw myself, my crying wife and my son from top,&#8221; I said.</p>
<p>&#8220;How do you feel,&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>I paused for a moment and answered, &#8220;Nothing&#8230; I feel nothing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Now, go back again to the moment after you died. How to you feel?&#8221; the communicator asked.</p>
<p>I paused a few seconds and replied, &#8220;Nothing&#8230; Although I saw my wife was crying and was very sad, I felt peaceful.&#8221;</p>
<p>The communication session went on for a while. And after I finished my session, the young communicator said, &#8220;Death is nothing to be feared of.&#8221;</p>
<p>And I didn&#8217;t tell him anything about my fear of death!</p>
<p><strong>Died, died and died&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>My younger brother had a hard time starting his career. He often quarrels with my parents. And that made my parents, especially my dad, very upset.</p>
<p>So for my last 2.5-hour session, I started by mentioning about the relationship problem between my brother and my parents. By moving into earlier and other similar incident, I recalled various childhood incidents where I injured myself and bleed.</p>
<p>As I kept moving the time frame to earlier incident, I saw my past life as a snake crawling on the grass. I saw the leg of a traveler who was walking in front of me. Then, I glided forward and bite his leg. But later, I was stabbed to death by several travelers using wooden sticks.</p>
<p>Then I saw myself as fish, rabbit, mantis, crab and various birds. And I was stepped, eaten, knocked, stabbed, chopped and shot to death, again and again.</p>
<p>At last, the communicator asked, &#8220;You saw yourself died again and again. How is this related to your brother?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Huh?&#8221; I thought. &#8220;My brother? I was having an &#8216;exciting&#8217; time seeing myself dying again and again. I almost forgot I mentioned about my brother&#8217;s problem earlier.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Errr&#8230;&#8221; I said. &#8220;After suffering, there will be a new beginning. All these are just the experiences for us. Maybe my brother is having his hard time now. After getting through it, he will have a good beginning again.&#8221;</p>
<p>With this, my final session ended. And I said jokingly, &#8220;Aiyaa&#8230; I died horribly!&#8221;</p>
<p>Well, the amazing thing is that my brother indeed improved his attitude towards my parents. His business is getting better too. All these positive changes happened in just a few weeks.</p>
<p>My mother told me while smiling, &#8220;Your brother has indeed changed! That day he asked me whether I want to buy some food for meal. He wanted to buy for me. Previously he would only go out and buy his own meal without asking us anything.&#8221;</p>
<p>Wow! I never thought that what happened to me in the past can affect my brother.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you believe in only what you can see or hear? Do you believe in only what you can touch? And do you believe in only what your conscious brain can accept as truth?</p>
<p>I see most people don&#8217;t believe in anything they cannot see, hear or touch. They just close their brain or laugh at others for being absurd. They feel safe with what they know and are familiar with.</p>
<p>Take these for examples:</p>
<p><span id="more-428"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Do you believe in ghost or spiritual being?</li>
<li>Do you believe in reincarnation or life after death?</li>
<li>Do you believe your parents, siblings and lover have past life relationship with you?</li>
<li>Do you believe in aliens?</li>
<li>Do you believe some aliens are trying to take over Earth from human?</li>
<li>Do you believe another planet is ready for us when Earth is destroyed?</li>
</ul>
<p>I know it&#8217;s hard to believe it all. Me too. But I won&#8217;t reject these thoughts either. I will always open for the possibilities because what we perceive is rather limited.</p>
<p><strong>Can you see it?<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Imagine you have a blind friend called Alex who doesn&#8217;t have eyes since birth. Try explaining to him what you see. You may say, &#8220;Alex, do you know we can see the color red, blue and yellow? It&#8217;s really a beautiful world out there.&#8221;</p>
<p>Alex may answer, &#8220;What color? What is beautiful? I see nothing at all. Are you lying to me?&#8221;</p>
<p>In fact, even if you have normal eyesight, you still cannot see infrared, ultraviolet and whole lots of electromagnetic spectrum that we know exist. Therefore, even if you cannot see something, it doesn&#8217;t mean it doesn&#8217;t exist.</p>
<p><strong>Can you hear it?</strong></p>
<p>Now imagine you have another friend called John who doesn&#8217;t have ears since birth. Try showing him what you hear. You may use all sorts of hand language. But at the end, John still couldn&#8217;t understand what is sound.</p>
<p>In fact, even if you have normal hearing, you still cannot hear sound with frequency below 20Hz and above 20,000Hz. That&#8217;s why you cannot hear elephant communicating when they use lower frequency sound up to 5 miles away. Therefore, even if you cannot hear something, it doesn&#8217;t mean it doesn&#8217;t exist.</p>
<p><strong>The actual reality</strong></p>
<p>Are there other realities we don&#8217;t know of? I guess there are many.</p>
<p>Ant lives in a 2D world. For ant, the world is flat no matter where they go. Imagine telling an ant our world of 3D. This can be quite hard. We human live in a 3D world. Can we imagine living in a 4D world? Pretty hard, isn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>Tell a fish what it is like living on land. Tell a cat what it is like living in water. And tell a human what it is like living in&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Tip of iceberg</strong></p>
<p>I believe our reality is only a tip of the iceberg. Our senses are very limited. And there are many other realities out there we can hardly imagine.</p>
<p>So next time you hear something that sounds absurd, do not jump into your conscious judgment too soon. Never use the word &#8220;Impossible&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just when I am feeling joyous for my new born baby, I received a call from my ex-classmate this morning. I thought he wanted to wish me Happy Chinese New Year. But no, he did not. Instead, he delivered a shocking news &#8211; my another ex-classmate&#8217;s wife just died.</p>
<p>&#8220;HUH!!??&#8221; was my response. It was a road accident in highway. My ex-classmate whose wife died, had a few stitches on his head. And he forgot what happened.</p>
<p>His wife was in her early 30s. Young and pretty with bright future ahead, she suddenly left this world. How would her husband feel? How would her parents feel? And how would her parents-in-law feel?</p>
<p>Please accept my condolences&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Death is an experience all of us must go through. Some people fear it and some didn&#8217;t even dare to think about it. What happens after we die? Where will we go? Do we disappear just like that?</p>
<p>Near Death Experience, or NDE is an experience of a person who temporarily died but later become alive again. This experience is very important to doctors or scientists who are interested to learn more about death.</p>
<p><span id="more-44"></span></p>
<p>Various Near Death Experiences have been collected all over the world, across different cultures and religions. And it all turn out to be quite the similar experience.</p>
<p>Most reported seeing bright light and feeling love and peace. Then, all their life experiences were flashed back starting from birth to that moment of death. It was like seeing their life stories in fast forward.</p>
<p><strong>Jack&#8217;s NDE</strong></p>
<p>For example, Jack saw he and his friend bullied a small kid in school. They surrounded the kid, kicked him, drew on his face and took away his pant. That poor kid cried and struggled.</p>
<p>At this moment, Jack clearly felt exactly what that poor kid felt &#8211; fear, humiliation and sadness. Then he saw his own face. He was laughing and having fun bullying the kid. He realized how ugly he looked. How could he do such a terrible thing? Jack was upset for himself.</p>
<p>Then Jack saw himself helping an old woman crossing the street when he was older. He saw that woman&#8217;s smiling face. He could clearly feel her happiness and gratefullness. At that moment, Jack was very happy.</p>
<p>And Jack continued to feel all his life experiences until the end. For Jack, death was not a scary experience. It was seeing all the bad things he had done that scared him. It was feeling the hurt and sadness of other people that scared him.</p>
<p>And this made him wanting to return back to Earth &#8211; to start all over again.</p>
