A near-death experience (NDE) is an extreme personal experience associated with death or impending death. The great majority of these experiences are positive and may encompass detachment from the body, feelings of levitation, total serenity, security, warmth, joy, review of major life events, the presence of light, and seeing dead relatives. When negative, such experiences may include sensations of anguish, distress, a void, devastation, and seeing frightening scenes.

I also associate the presence of the Angel of Death, as in the Islamic tradition, as a near-death event. The archangel Azrael, metaphorically, separates souls from their bodies using a scythe or sword. Many Judeo-Christian believers know the Angel of Death as the Grim Reaper, which was inspired by the high number of deaths attributed to the Black Death plagues in 14th-century Europe and Asia.

I have combined both death-related phenomena into this presentation since each offers a reflection of our future, and how it may affect our remaining life.
