I looked this up and according to his mother the issue was depression. Doesn't seem like the entities were involved.
Yeah,that makes sense.He did talk about his meetings with "agents" during trips though,and he became obsessed with seeking answers.
I've only just skimmed notes on his work, but it seems like there's acknowledgement that he's perhaps traveling through "inner space" rather than some alternate dimension.
Those two might be representations of the same place,the subconscious?
I'm not going to outright discount the alternate realities angle, but it seems to me that a lot of drugs and shamanic healing involving visions offers you a user interface with which to interact with your own subconscious.
I do think,as I mentioned above,that it makes more sense that you travel through your own subconscious.
Back to the ghosts now
I am halfway through now,and this guy is throwing so much anecdotal "evidence" that you end up dizzy.
A new twist(for me at least) is that these entities are deliberately fucking with you.They lie and provide you with false information
about their previous lives as a earthbound.To me this sounds like excuses for all the times these cases are proven to be factually
wrong.
You mentioned that you wrote a paper on this subject right? what is your take on that?
