Sadhguru (Jaggi Vasudev) claims that you can be saved from samsara during the 40 last seconds of your life. Presumably you have to die in Kashi (alias Varanasi or Benares) at the banks of the Ganges river in India.
During the last 40 second of an individual´s life, he experiences his entire life - and several previous lifetimes - in rapid succession. This leads to an enormous suffering. If you can somehow become "aware" during these 40 seconds, you will reach liberation, even if you lived your entire life in ignorance.
This process is known as Bhairavi Yatana, and was instituted by Shiva (whose most ferocious form is called Bhairava).
Can´t vouch for the truth of these claims, LOL, but note the interesting similarities with modern ideas of near-death experiences (NDEs), and more ancient ideas about purgatory and the like.
Could this *at the very least* be a genuine psychological experience? And if so, what does it mean?
Ingen lår ju kunna återvända för att berätta det.
