Dr. Mark Fox has carried out extensive research into the related subjects of spirituality and religious experience. His books include studies of Near-Death Experiences and of overwhelming ‘encounters’ with love and light. Tonight Mark will discuss the findings from his analysis of over 700 accounts of such unusual light encounters reported to the Religious Experience Research Centre at the University of Wales. Such lights are typically encountered at times of crisis or at the passing of a loved one, and are often taken by the experients as evidence of life beyond death.
