Speaker 2: I open an eye and the bayonet comes down one
Speaker 2: inch from this sheet.
Speaker 1: I just remember everything getting dark. I was like, oh

Speaker 1: go that long. It isn't just about near death experiences.
Speaker 1: It's about what comes after. And now you got to

Speaker 1: in your heart. At the same time.
Speaker 2: Everything reduces to its minimum expression, which is the search
Speaker 2: of meaning.

Speaker 1: step out of my grave and into my life. This
Speaker 1: life I'm living now, I have a spiritual function, a
Speaker 1: spiritual purpose.
Speaker 2: Having gotten through all of these near death experiences.
