[@RoselynIrum]

Your situation is similar to mine. I lost my dad, two years later my mum. I also lost my husband within a space of a year and I was overwhelmed by sorrow. I felt that my world was coming to an end. It was through God's grace that I went online in search of stories to find some sort of comfort as I felt that nothing that I hear or see will provide that comfort and peace that I am searching for. I came across so many NDE stories and those stories truly provided peace, knowing that my loved ones have just passed from this life into the next. I am so blessed to hear Dr. Mary's NDE experience and the work she is doing now, telling the world about her experience.

[@cindytippit2328]

I had a NDE. I had taken a prescription I was allergic to. I was near a coma and I saw my mother (she died in 1992) and my little sister (she died at birth) and a shining person that glowed - I knew it was Jesus or God-like. I said if you want me to go back you will have to send me back because I want to stay. I heard a voice that said you still have to be a mother (my daughter was 15). I knew I had to stay on earth to take care of her. My mom looked young and beautiful. I know she is waiting for me along with my real dad I never knew and my soulmate Walter (he passed in 2016). I am 73 and I am looking forward to being with them. I have no fear of death at all.

[@k0smon]

[@markcavicchiolo3190]

@Bored Af Really? well there have been quite a few credible NDEs from people who have been atheists, and never have had religious afflilation. Google Howard Storm and check that one out. Marino Restrepo is another very credible one. There have also been accounts of people blind from birth who give vivid descriptions of trees, mountains and other natural features. I think these sorts of reports are highly compelling.

"Death is nothing more than the doorway to home." I've been a registered nurse for many years and have seen many people die and as I age (I'm 54) I've been thinking more and more about my own mortality. This seems like the correct way to see death. Life is such a mystery. This just can't be all there is to it. It would make no sense.

Genesis 1: 26-27 26 4 Then God said: "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.

What he is teaching is thus from Ecclesiastes 12..... 6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. 7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. ...................

Been having a hard time copping with the death of a loved one, who passed on-the 19th of May 2022. I've always had the conventional understanding that death is the end of life, but now I really understand that it is simply the transformation from one physical being to another spiritual being. Thank you

@PearlPerlita Venegas At the top they state that "We've flagged this talk...... because it appears to fall outside TED Curatorial guidelines" Again, my point is: Who isn't going to die? So why is this being flagged? Dr, Neal offers amazing insights that would be helpful to so many out there and yet, by being flagged it will not be seen by the many who would be comforted by her story.

[@GaryRRamsey]

@PearlPerlita Venegas I find it bizarre as well! I have a feeling it is either because she mentions "Jesus Christ" or "Spiritual" but I am not sure. Perhaps they do not agree the near-death experiences. Whatever it is, I agree with you: Nothing matters but love!

[@bettydoughtery3920]

Although, only 4 years old, I too passed. I can remember vividly my mother running through a field, screaming as she ran. As she carried me, I was to the side of her watching her, and wondering why I couldn't hear the screams, and why I was rising, yet could view my body, wondering; what happened to my hat? Where was it. It was found on the ground, under an apple tree. While playing next to that old apple tree, it's bough hollowed out, I climbed up and into it. Suspended from the tree were the rope makings, from an old swing. My mother , alerted by my sister , found me hanging by my neck, hat on the ground, without a pulse that she could detect. The neighbor, a retired Army nurse called for an ambulance and administered compressions to my back. That was a long time ago. I am now 70 plus, and realize that infinity is somewhere and something good people need not fear, not perfect people, just those who live their lives without harmful intent. from an abandoned clothes line

[@danitewatchman6538]

Many refer to Mary Neal's experience as a Near Death Experience... However Mary Neal was in fact dead.... So the more correct term would be a Death experience or in a more factual term resurrected. Her experience gives great insight and calms the fears for those who are concerned about death.... All humans die... there is not one flesh human living among us who was a flesh human from the beginning... Dr Neal's personal insight answers a great many questions we have about this life, and the one after... Many stories similar to hers can be read in biblical texts (John 11)....... This is difficult for many because they lack the understanding of 1 Corinthians 15, as taught by the Apostle Paul...... because many have been taught the doctrine of the philosopha.... especially the Epicurean version..... Mary's story is true and well documented...

[@lynnfinger8442]

I talk about my NDE because there is no word for a Death experience. I was dead, and came back.

[@danitewatchman6538]

@@lynnfinger8442 I think Near Death Experience is a term used by people who who have been swayed by Philosopha doctrine......... It's a dodge used to resist speaking about the existence of their soul, its basically Epicurean thought (See Paul Acts 17), where he engaged the philosopha both Epicurean and Stoic. The factual existence of a Soul to a believer of Philosopha based Epicurean doctrine, would be a game changer. .... it would be a paradigm shift................ The actual Christian term is resurrection of as a Noun the Resurrected or A Resurrected ........ Since the medical arena (as most collegiate) push philosopha doctrine upon its attendees, as the only fact, the majority of those exiting such arenas have been brain washed into thinking all answers lie in the use of Applied Dialectics, Metaphysics, and Epistemology..... Which is why they fail to understand one who has been Resurrected and attempt to pass such action off as Near Death....... as opposed to factual Death and factual Resurrection...... If you died and were sent back .... its for a specific reason ..... regardless of what the opinion of the philosopha might be.... ....................................... Its very difficult to break the glass ceiling constructed over the past 6 decades by the philosopha, any one who attempts is laughed to scorn or demonized as we witnessed with Judge Kavanaugh recently..... Those where Hegel based philosopha who moved against Judge Kavanaugh to character assassinate him through what we now know were outright fabrications....... We all observed the use of Applied Dialectics and ideological subversion used by the Hegelian philosopha (Socialists, Communists, Progressives) during that circus..... They would do no less to the Resurrected should they proclaim publicly that they had died in the flesh and been resurrected...... What humans should hold as the highest regard "Resurrected" is held with the greatest disdain by purveyors of philosopha based doctrine (Aristotle's or Hegel or Hegel's Students version)...... .................................................... Anyone who cannot observe Earth as an anomaly among the planets is simply blind to fact. Earth has no statistical significance as being random when compared to the population of planets, its specific and an anomaly among those planets....... The construct of earth is specific to successful human existence, having needed come first or no human would currently exist.......Further, the human existence is temporary, never having any evidence of being permanent. All of these common observations paint a picture, which speaks squarely against applied dialectics assumptions of the struggle of antithesis against thesis and the philosopha based ideal of Evolving....... The evidence speaks directly to the necessity of careful planning and execution, everything having purpose in the existence of the human.... Remember, souls are required to volunteer for this human journey, its not forced upon them........ And as our sibling Mary has stated, actions have consequences which can be 25 to 30 times removed, which is far beyond our comprehension ........ ................................................. You were resurrected for a reason, if you are doing the will of our Father, he has your back (your six in military terms) what philosopha purveyor could ever successfully stand against our Father? Do you see Mary speaking at The Ted? Most of the people in that room believe some form of philosopha doctrine..... And Mary comes to that arena to speak about Resurrection..... and life after death..... She gives them hope that there is something more than what the philosopha provide .... especially the Epicureans..... The idea of life after death is a game changer, a Paradigm Shift, for most of the people at The Ted who are listening to her..... Mary is not NDE.... she is Resurrected..... I think its way cool that our Father provided her to us as a witness....

Sometimes I feel like I want to die to be able to explore an other world besides the physical one in which we live in. In Buddhism, I heard that living is equal to suffering, that is why meditation helps us to feel more connected to our true spirit. I see death as calm and peaceful as when I am meditating. The home and summer camp example was great. It is because we know that we will be back home that we better enjoy the summer camp. Perfect 👌

Buddhism is great the only thing is that it is missing Jesus Christ. Use your meditation techniques in front of the Blessed Sacrament and you will be uplifted. If you do not think so than do what you are doing.

Sister Maria, I was, at different points of my life, an atheist, a Buddhist, a Hindu, an agnostic and an atheist. I am tertiary educated with a degree in humanities and one in law, was well read and believed that all of are here to have a life, die and be integrated with the soil whether we are buried or cremated. I met CHRIST and I was forever changed and I found meaning in my life. I no longer drifted. I received many miracles including the perfect children born against medical advice, deliverance from cancer with no medical intervention whatsoever and lastly and most dramatic of all the deliverance from strokes of both my husband I - again without any medical intervention whatsoever - just silent prayers . Mine was in June 2018 and that of my husband in February 2019. GOD IS great 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Sister, read the New Testament and meet CHRIST, our saviour and your life will never be the same again .

I was already humble enough but my eyes wasn't open enough. No matter how we die or lose someone that we love, if you are religious and believe in God going through lose is a reminder of what happened at the beginning of life. We just wasn't supposed to know death at least live a short life and at least have accidents that would shorten your life.
