See what you make of this. About ten years ago, I had a quadruple heart by-pass operation which involved being "dead" for several hours, maintained by a heart-lung machine, while the "plumbers" re-arranged the piping.
I came out of that with a different personality according to family. I left my profession in industry, signed up as a mature student in university, and began my spiritual life wandering the moors, teaching part-time in the university to make ends meet.
The twist is that this operation happened on my birthday - so I have been "born" twice on the same day. Different soul ? - you tell me.
