A hallucination is a false perception of objects or events involving your senses: sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. Hallucinations seem real, but they're not.

This is what the proverbial "out-of-body" experiences that you are talking about are as well.

If I and the many people who have been on their death beds had a false perception why are there many books explaining it?

One could also ask how come there are hundreds and hundreds of thousands of books in hundreds of different languages around the world purporting to be able to interpret the meaning of dreams.

You call it an hallucination because you don't understand it.

As I said previously, I call it an hallucination because I DO understand it.

You haven't experienced one and probably are ignorant of the wisdom in the occult section of the library.

"The wisdom" in the occult section?

If so why when I went to the library could I read exactly about what you call an hallucination?

Because people write all sorts of books. If there's a market for something, regardless of what it is, there will be books about it.

There are no books about people's personal hallucinations.

Are there not? Or do you mean there are no books about dreams and hallucinations in "the occult section"?

I don't think either of us is "acting as an expert" in this conversation. What expertise will I gain from reading books about the occult?

Now there are no books explaining my experience of cactus eating plants because it was an hallucination.

Yes, there are. They are in the medical section of libraries and bookshops. I am sorry to hear about your experience of vomiting because of substance abuse.

It is an experience many people claim to have had. There is yet to be any evidence of this, which is surprising considering its apparent commonality. At best you find a few curious anecdotes, but nothing more than that.
