“Penetrating so many secrets, we cease to believe in the unknowable. But there it sits, nevertheless, calmly licking its chops.”
H L Mencken
In the last two weeks, 2 separate people from quite different communities both sent me the link to Mellen-Thomas Benedict’s account of his near death experience. In these challenging times, this is something which deserves as much publicity as it can get for the vision it offers of what lies beyond the consciousness of our present lives on Earth. It was wonderful to be reminded of it again.

Mellen-Thomas Benedict’s Near Death Experience
“In 1982 I died from terminal cancer. The condition I had was inoperable, and any kind of chemotherapy they could give me would just have made me more of a vegetable. I was given six to eight months to live. I had been an information freak in the1970’s, and I had become increasingly despondent over the nuclear crisis, the ecology crisis, and so forth. So, since I did not have a spiritual basis, I began to believe that nature had made a mistake, and that we were probably a cancerous organism on the planet. I saw no way that we could get out from all the problems we had created for ourselves and the planet. I perceived all humans as cancer, and that is what I got. That is what killed me. Be careful what your world view is. It can feed back on you, especially if it is a negative world view. I had a seriously negative one. That is what led me into my death. I tried all sorts of alternative healing methods, but nothing helped.”
