The Peace of God to all that belong to the Light
Dear readers,
Today it is a turning point in science, one of the fundamental questions that have been asked along all the existence of humanity is what happened with our mind when we die, well finally science is able to explain it.
The Brain remains still alive for some minutes after all the other vital functions ceased and gradually there is a process of disconnection of neurons that take place. Technically if there is a way to resuscitate the person during that lapse the brain does not suffer damages.
Please check:
Star Trek foresaw what happens with our mind when we die correctly in 1980
The Intriguing point is that there was somebody able to explain in details all this stuff in 1988, through some way the scripters of Star Trek the new generation in one of the episodes had a case of a death aboard and the physician in charge was able to explain this same process as right now it is confirmed actually happens.
How 30 years ago they know with absolute certainty that this was going to be the correct scientific explanation is matter of speculations??
Considering the fact that our specie has claimed along thousands of years of civilization as well as different religious traditions that we are a separate creation from the rest of the Animal kingdom, even formally until XIX century humans were not considered to be animals at all, and that was a formidable obstacle to overcome for scientists like Charles Darwin, it is remarkable the finding of a science fiction series that correctly forecasted what science was going to find.
Following a run-in with Armus, an evil black sludge-monster thing, Lieutenant Tasha Yar is severely injured. Back in the starship's sickbay, the crew watch over Yar as she slowly dies. Just like the new scientific research explains, Commander Beverly Crusher notes that there is still hope to revitalize Lieutenant Yar, even though there is technically no brain activity.
"Neurons are beginning to depolarize," another crew member adds, just like it's explained in the scientific research.
The episode of the TV science fiction series Star trek - New generation, where this was predicted is "skin of evil" part 2.
"Skin of Evil" is the 23rd episode of the first season of the American science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation, and originally aired on April 25, 1988, in broadcast syndication. The story premise was written by Joseph Stefano, and the screenplay was re-written by Hannah Louise Shearer. The episode was directed by Joseph L. Scanlan.

The thread is open to discuss the interesting facts of powerful intuition in writers of science fiction to predict futuristic technologies and finding in Science as well as automatic writing skills in parapsychology.
Thanks for your attention,

Like many "predictions" of science fiction, it's an extrapolation not intuition.

Exactly, since in your case (if I understood what you said on the issue correctly) you had no direct input of data, your brain will simply not provide any memories of the event after your body is reanimated (or brought back to life if you will). I think that your input on this topic will greatly enhance the scientific conversation.
It said 1940s, not 1940, and I'm quite sure 1947 is in the 1940s.

It was not received for analysis for publication before June 25tth of 1947, In the American Journal of Physiology, but actual date of publication is not disclosed, at least not in the same place is available the full text of the paper.
So there is no way to show it was written in 1940 as it was originally claimed in those speculations you have mentioned. I am going to continue investigating how long the reviewers had that paper in analysis and when actually was published.

CARL SAGAN on How Hindu Culture is basis for modern Cosmic theories
Carl Sagan does not say Hindu Culture is basis for modern cosmic theories, he says they coincide no doubt by accident.
"It is the only religion in which the timescales correspond, no doubt by accident, to those of modern scientific cosmology"
"If we live in such an oscillating universe, then the big bang is not the creation of the cosmos, but merely the end of the previous cycle"
Albert Einstein: “I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong.”

“I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
