Our physical existence, which relies on the five inner elements, flesh, bodily fluids, bodily heat, breathing, and bodily complexion, corresponds to the five outer elements, the earth, water, fire, wind and ether. At the time of death, the five inner elements gradually dissolve into one another and in order not to be afraid at this time you should know what stage the dissolving is in. This dissolving is called in Tibetan Thimrim. Each of these dissolving stages has the enlightened aspect represented by each of the five Female Buddhas. The female Buddha Sangye Chenma is the pure transcending element of the nature of the earth and in bodily systems, the flesh. The female Buddha Mamaki is the pure transcending element of the nature of water and in bodily systems, the body fluids. The female Buddha Go Karmo is the pure transcending element of the nature of fire and in bodily systems, the body heat. The female Buddhas Damtsik Drolma and Yingchogma are the pure transcending elements of the air and ether, respectively, and in bodily systems, breath and body complexion.
If during your lifetime you have experienced the development and completion stages in meditative concentration on the deities, then in the Bardo, by realizing mind itself is emptiness, you can recognize the dissolving stages and have the opportunity to be released from suffering and attain enlightenment.

Is it possible that you 'connected' with some other force or spirit? Sure, but in such a case I doubt that the subject matter would have been so personal to you. Was it (you may not even realize it)? I get the impression that it was for some reason.

Excellent. I'm curious as to how the girls looked, and as to whether they were the only people who stood out.

How many past lives did you remember?
Perhaps the little girls were a construct of your subconscious mind used to relate your past lives to you. Each girl a representative of a different past life?
Also were you a believer in reincarnation before this happened?
