The "PDE" The Pseudo Death Experience - - - - "The more prepared you are for death, it is said, the more beautifully, you can finish your life." - The Pseudo Death Experience (PDE) is part of a"well-dying" trend making headway in the Far East. It helps us look at life, and our immanent demise, from the perspective of a corpse, in a coffin.- - - - Exploring the Interment Vessel, the Casket, the Coffin, the Box is what this book is about. - Outside the Box, is where we all live, outside the box, looking at it, always knowing one day, we will be in it, inside the box. A PDE is for adventurous people, those who would like to go past the fear, and investigate its mystery. Thereby, take a glimpse, a little peek, inside, inside the box, and explore what being inside the box might be like, and how it relates, to everyone and everything we do outside the box. - I know our demise, is something most of us, like to run from and hide, acknowledging it not; however, that tends to tie our life in various knots, when we try to avoid our relationship with the box. - Many of us avoid discussing death, looking deeply into it, or preparing for it. However, we must remember: though it is not a favorite topic, it will be our final event, in life; there's no escaping it. Death will find us all one day, and release us, from our shell, our physical form, and that release date, for most, is unknown. - The question is: when, and where, will our demise arise, and will we be ready, prepared, surprised, or possibly shocked, when death finally arrives, looks us in the eye, and says, Hi? Time to tell everybody goodbye, friend, and foe, and everyone you know. goodbye - With our PDEs a real coffin is optional.
