Induced Coma
is increasingly common in medical procedures.
Patients lapsing back to real time claim it’s a sweet space.
Coma-land.
Parallel world, noiseless, zero technology.
You can hang there for a long time like Jesus without nails.
But isn’t this coma-land of yours just a degraded version of Nirvana?
Absolutely.
