There was a fascinating study in Belgium that analyzed 154 people that have NDEs. Interestingly enough “ 64 percent believe that they encountered spirits or people.”( Martin) “The most common sequence, experienced by 22 percent of people, was out-of-body experience, followed by experiencing a tunnel, seeing a bright light, and finally a feeling of peace”( Martin). A different study in 1988 showed that “30% reported moving through a tunnel, had an observation of a celestial landscape, or had a meeting with deceased relatives. About 25% of the patients with an NDE had an an out-of-body experience, had communication with ‘the light’ or observed colors, 13% experienced a life review, and 8% experienced a border”( Roberts). Many people that have had NDEs have experienced seeing other spirits or themselves venturing out of their own body. Reincarnation is generally understood to mean a condition in when you reincarnate your spirit or your soul is removed from your body and moved into a new body possibly years later. Dr. Newton the author of “Destiny of souls” explains that there are multiple steps when you die, to do. Dr. Newton goes on to say that when the patients saw the tunnels it was their spirit traveling out of the body to the “gateway to the spirit world” to wait till they become reincarnated again and reunite with other spirits they may have been close to in another life.

There could be an influx of energy from other planets, realms, universes – a kind of cosmic migration. Or 3. "Human" consciousness could manifest as a greater number of people than it did before.”(Halliwell). This means that a soul could go into another animal, it doesn’t always have to go to a human being. And same is true for other animals, plants, etc. , when they die their spirit may go to a human. The number of spirits outnumbers the amount of living things so when a new child or thing is created there will always be a spirit to go into it. “Souls don't have a 1:1 ratio from one life to the next. Maybe life is an ever changing mixture where souls are like dough. You die, are mushed back into the mix and made into new people, but it's all one big ball (of energy) and that "dough" can be divided up into variable number of people” (Thom) Twins are a good example of that possibly happening. You could have one spirit split between two people before birth. Twins tend to be quite similar to each other even if they aren't identical twins. There can be many different possibilities of where the spirit has come
