Topic: Orpheus Myth

The discussion explores the overlap between NDEs and other "high strangeness" phenomena, such as fairy folklore and alien abductions. A specific cross-cultural parallel is noted where a deity vomits a quartz crystal and shoves it into a shaman's chest, a motif found in both Native American and Australian traditions. Additionally, the "Trojan Feast" concept—the taboo against eating food in the spirit realm to avoid being trapped—is identified as a universal theme appearing in Greek myths and indigenous accounts.
