Background
A 54 year old ex-mechanic who had recovered from an episode of profound shock in 1972 pictured this light to be ‘the absence of darkness’.
A description of the experience
Recollections of death – Dr Michael Sabon
My description of the light was – well, it was not a light but the absence of darkness, total and complete …. Well you think of light as a big light shining on things making shadows and so forth. This light was really the absence of darkness. We’re not used to that concept because we always get a shadow from a light unless the light is all around us.
But this light was so total and complete that you didn’t look at the light, you were in the light. See what I’m saying?
