What did Shaan Puri say about near-death experiences and seeing your life flash?

Shaan Puri said a podcast guest who studied near-death experiences told him people report their life flashing before them from the point of view of the other person in each scene. Puri said that turned heaven and hell into something he could believe in: if you treated people well the replay feels like heaven, and if not you feel how you made them feel.

• Puri said a Twitter poll asking if followers believe in God drew about 3,000 votes and 74% said yes, far more than he expected.
• Puri named his friend Ramon, a single father who keeps coaching other people's children, as the person who would get the best replay.
