I've been thinking a lot about God lately. I died briefly in an ambulance on Jan.30 , or so It seemed. During my perceived and imminent death I recited Buddhist prayers that were difficult for me to conjure and repeat in my mind ( mantra). I've been been Buddhist for 25 years or more. Lost track.
At this moment in the ambulance I decided to reach out to God and ask " are you there"? At that very moment I lifted my arm for the first time in 2 hours as I had a massive stroke and was paralyzed on my right side and unable to speak as well.
My paralysis lifted. I did perceive new life within me at this moment as well. Coincidence?
