Near-death experiences (NDEs), profound subjective experiences occurring during a close brush with death and containing transcendental or mystical elements, have been reported to reduce suicidal ideation, despite their "romanticization" of death. Among 61 consecutive hospital admissions for attempted suicide, 16 patients (26.2%) reported NDEs precipitated by the attempt. NDEs were not...
The Behavior Analyst 1986 J L Williams
As in the case of other scientific conceptual schemas, features of radical behaviorism can be compared to descriptions of the world that have evolved within Eastern philosophic traditions.

Much work on mystical experience has taken for granted a certain view about the relation between experience and its interpretation. This ‘traditional view’ has received perhaps its most explicit statement in Stace's Mysticism and Philosophy. It is a view which is attractive to proponents of the doctrine of unanimity, the doctrine (roughly put) that at the phenomenological level all mystical...

Philosophen haben im Lauf der Jahrtausende viel spekuliert uber die Beschaffenheit der Wirklichkeit, und die Naturwissenschaften haben versucht, Naturgesetze, also einheitliche Prinzipien, hinter der Mannigfaltigkeit der empirischen Phanomene zu entdekken. In jungerer Zeit schienen dabei die Erkenntnisse der Naturwissenschaften denen der Philosophen und Theologen unversohnlich...
