The vast majority of atheists or people who think they are atheists, when asked why they don’t believe in God, say that it is because they cannot see Him – yet if the question is put to them whether they believe in love, will say yes, and mean it. We believe in love yet how many of us have seen it? Can it be held in one’s hands? Can it be weighed? What colour is it? What shape is it? Can it be smelt? Or heard? “No”, to all these questions. So how come that almost every man, woman and child alive believes in love, or atleast knows what we’re talking about when we mention the word “love”? Not only that, but few people would wish to contemplate living without love – without loving or being loved by someone. So, if it is possible to believe in unseen love, why is it impossible to believe in God even if we cannot see Him? The

the beginning of creations (sarga), the Self (Atma) who has four distinct "vibhootis" , is Chaturatma.
Right now I don't know what these four "vibhootis" are. By the way are Shankha, Chakra, Gadaa & Padma called vibhootis? One meaning of vibhootis is decorations, so these may fit the meaning, especially when referring to Vishnu. But most probably Sri Shankaracharya had an esoteric meaning in mind related to Atman. Nirguna Atman, when seen from the Maya of created world can at best be described by a Saguna version where it has three attributes of Sat-Chit-Ananda. But this doesn't fit into four 'vibhootis'.

One of the near-death experience truths is that each person integrates their near-death experience into their own pre-existing belief system." This important truth must be kept in the back of one's mind when reading these different reports.
The following Hindu near-death experiences come from Pasricha's and Stevenson's research as well as other sources on near-death experiences in India.
Vasudev Pandey
Vasudev Pandey was interviewed in 1975 and again in 1976. He was born in 1921 and had nearly died in his home of what he described as "paratyphoid disease" when he was about 10 years old. Vasudev had been considered dead and his body had actually been taken to the cremation ground.
