In the Carman’s first book, pictured here, they discuss pre-birth and near-death experiences in detail.
Elizabeth and Neil Carman, Ph.D. lectured on the Reverse-NDE or Pre Birth Experiences (PBE) at the annual conference of the International Association of Near-Death Experiencers in 2001 in Seattle.
They discovered 3 major parallels between Near-Death Experiences and Pre-Birth Experiences:
- We all are Pre-Birth Experiencers who have traveled down the tunnel of light featured on the cover of Cosmic Cradle
- The Near-Death Experience (NDE) is a reverse prebirth experience
- At death, we simply travel, so to speak, back up through the frequency shift to higher, faster vibrational energies which seems like a tunnel.
36 NDE stories are found in their first book, Cosmic Cradle: Souls Waiting in the Wings for Birth:
