Summary

Darkness Radio presents Apparitions at the Moment of Death with Songwriter/Poet/Author, Daniel Bourke!

Since ancient times, people from nearly every culture and corner of the world have experienced visions of loved ones that coincided with their faraway deaths. These otherworldly synchronicities, known as crisis apparitions, are not rare; in fact, they have always been a part of our collective experience, blurring the lines between our knowledge of life and our beliefs about the afterlife. In "Apparitions at the Moment of Death ,The Living Ghost in Legend, Lyric, and Lore", academic researcher Daniel Bourke explores the moment of death from a deeply illuminating perspective, giving readers unprecedented access to mystifying corners of paranormal study.

From the temples of ancient Egypt to the hospital rooms of the twenty-first century, from the works of Homer to the monks of the Middle Ages, from the saint to the shaman, Bourke examines the crisis apparition and the phenomena of the “living ghost” in legend, lyric, and lore, demonstrating their universal nature for the first time. He shares profound accounts from a wide range of sources—including history, literature, folklore, theology, and contemporary culture—to reveal how widespread these ghostly encounters are throughout the ages.

Daniel joins Darkness Radio today to talk about "crisis apparitions", a loved one coming to you or others at the exact time of their death.  He also discusses tokens, symbols, near death experiences, and historical examples as to why we probably shouldn't be so skeptical as we learn more through science.
