I really, really enjoyed this, my sister passed in 2012, I was lying on the couch! I suddenly felt the softest kiss on my cheek, a kiss but yet not like a quick touch/ kiss, melting not sure how to explain, then I heard the softest voice of my sister she diagnosed love ya sis!!! Tears flowed down my face I said out loud my sister is gone, the telephone will be ringing, within about 5 minutes it did!! I knew she came to me!! My sister , my friend , my confidant ❤❤❤ how I miss her! How blessed am I to have had that experience!!! Thank you!! Stop the hate it will never serve you !! Blessing to you all!!!

My friend's son had a sudden stroke at the age of 18 whilst at university. On this day his mum for some strange reason had decided to go home during her lunch break and feed the cats! When she entered her house, she saw her son slumped in the chair. She could tell herself that he had a stroke and was experiencing more .He came home long way from university and it wasn't a special occasion or anything like that! He was flown to the best hospital, operated instantly and put into induced come, with the top of his scull cut off and kept in the freezer as he kept having strokes, one after another, almost! Months had passed and he wasn't showing any signs of improvement at all. One day all the tests were indicating that he was brain dead, so he had a cerebral angiography and this confirmed it as well. So, it was all agreed that her son is dead, and only the machines keep him going!! Next morning, several doctors and nurses went to get with my friend and her husband and their family to the hospital chapel to pray for their son! Then they went to his room and decided to pray a bit more, whist standing around his bed. All of a sudden, a doctor had noticed my friend's son's little finger moved a little. They said it just some electrical impulses but the finger moved again and again and the hand moved a bit more!! They were all very surprised but said it still could be some impulses only. He started moving his other fingers, other hand as well . It was decided to grant him more time and intensify his care. After some weeks ( I really don't remember how long this period took, so forgive me if I'm wrong here) and then he opened his eyes and cried out loud! His mum pressed the big alarm and every single doctor slid into the room, disbelieving what they were seeing. I can't remember how much longer he was in hospital but he had to learn to talk and walk, and swallow thickened water and eat thickened dinner, till he was OK ed to swallow normal, but tiny bits of soup and mashed potatoes! But he did it!! What a journey is had been! He regained his memory completely and went back to university to study physics and later studied for another PhD. Everything was pointing out that he was dead!He heard doctor's conversations in the room and when he knew they'll kill him, he mustered his power from somewhere and was able to move the little finger, which he couldn't even fill ! He did it with his brain, because he wanted to live more than anything. The only thing reminding him of his horrible illness is a ridge on his forehead as the skull, kept in the freezer had shrunk. Now, doctors can stop this from happening very easily. His wife doesn't mind it a bit, nor his children; they have a cool dad. There's something more in us, which even the most sophisticated equipment cannot measure! Often the family as a feeling that their child can hear them and doctors must listen to them, not to the clever machines. Thank you again if you've made it to the end. 🥀

My grandfather, Granddaddy Les, had a massive heart attack and he watched his entire quadruple bypass surgery from the ceiling above looking down on it. He was a very conservative man and did not believe or even think about anything of this sort. Just a simple, country man from Corinth, MS. After much hesitation of what others may think of him, he finally admitted it to my grandmother, then he told us, his family members, and Les described the entire surgery in detail. It is the unquestionable truth for certain. He had no other way of describing any of this except by exactly what he saw from directly above the operation.

When I was in my early twenties, I’m mid fifties now, I laid down on my bed for a quick rest, not to sleep but just to refresh myself for a minute. I had a lot to do so I sat up in bed and swung my legs off to stand up, I stood and noticed the most glorious golden sunlight was coming in from the window behind me and was moved to go look out the window as I went around the end of the bed towards the window I saw that my body was in fact still laying on my bed, it startled me and upon feeling fear I was instantly back in my body. Afterward I was so disappointed in myself for being afraid, it was the most beautiful, almost loving light, I wish I could’ve just went along with it and explored the experience. Many, many other things happen that I can’t explain but I think it may be related to having died at three years old due to a big chunk of cement falling on my head, I don’t remember an NDE but it’s sort of like I’ve always had a toe on the other side of the veil so to speak. Peace.

[@paulinearis4823]

I had a very similar experience where I was walking towards my bed and saw someone laid in my place, then realised it was me. Then I was instantly back in my body without knowing how I got back in it. I record my dreams when I can remember them, and some became “reality” as much as fifteen years after I had written about them. This tells me that the past, present, and future exist at the same ”time”. I believe this because you cannot possibly “know” about something that hasn’t already occurred. Quantum physics, and what Einstein described as “spooky science”, and the ‘double slit’ experiment, is deepening our understanding.

[@elenak2015]

I had an accident and had lost lots of blood. The doctors repaired the wound and the Nurse put me on a drip. All through that experience, drifting in and out of consciousness, i felt warms and happiness. My logical brain was wondering why i don't feel scared or traumatized. I felt detached from reality and my life and wasn't bothered whether i live o die. I was just happy to float in that moment. And yes, when my son had suddenly died at 4 o clock in the morning in another country, i woke up and couldn't understand why. But somehow i also had a unexplained feeling of happiness. Obviously not being aware of the tragedy. And he did come to me in a dream few times. Clearly remember on the 40 th day after death, he was alive and sitting with me and my husband at the table, being cheerful and loving and saying again and again that he will be visiting us all the time- we were moving to another country at that time. When i do feel sad of losing him, the thought of joining him one day feels very comforting.

[@GanymedeXD]

Was it a NDE? Means, did you die clinically? What you describe is the effect of Morphine … after an accident given for pain and calm the patient. Blood loss additionally alters perception … think it is important not to muddle up different phenomena … NDE is about coming back after having clinically died … often NDE experiences are brushed off as pharmacological effects … every time a family member died … my mother knew in advance as she was visited in her dreams … even if she did not know anything was wrong with the loved one.

[@elenak2015]

@@GanymedeXD Before, i never considered that it was NDE. I wasn't given morphine, just epidural for operation. I actually think they didn't quite realize the extent of blood loss. I was in and out of semi consciousness, somewhere on borderline. But it was surprisingly comforting, like floating on a cloud. I am aware that severe blood loss can partially starve brain and thus creating feelings of euphoria. But maybe that's what called the heightened level of consciousness, like he mentions in that interview? I don't know , but i keep returning to that experience. And the paradox of narrowly escaping death and the feeling of calm, peace and happiness. And somehow not really caring if i had lived or died.

If you've read everything about Dr. Lommel, then you've read: The Near Death Experience The Denture Man NDE G.M. Woerlee, 2005-2023 The author exhaustively analyses the famous account (mentioned in our video) and leaves the undeniable conclusion that the entire experience of patient Mr. Beekhuizen, related by anonymous nurse T.G. was manifestly physiological in nature and involved no OBE visualization phenomenon.

When my father died, that night I dreamt of him and I hadn't seen him for 26yrs prior. He was with me and everyone in my family were standing in a circle holding hands, it was frosty like your forest, and they just stood there almost motionless, just kinda swaying a little. Well, my father and I were on the outside of the circle, and we were trying to wake them. We hit, bit, and kicked but to no effect. Then I woke to an email from my sister saying dad died at 9am and I woke at 11am which was really odd for me. I had to pull myself out of the grip of sleep, like sleep made me sick. I knew that my mother was dying. My asshole brother didn't tell me for. I just looked at a death lilly that came up in my garden and just knew. I died when I was 26 from bleeding out and slipped deep in the earth and met goblins, who helped me back to my hospital gurney.

I’m early down this rabbit hole. I had a moment during meditation that is almost identical to the near death experiences described here. Im a scientist and wasn’t spiritual but what I felt was so deep and real I can’t explain it but I now know with so much certainty that consciousness is connected and infinite/timeless. Since then, I’ve listened to Alan watts and Dr Roger Penrose on consciousness along with reading stalking the wild pendulum. There seems to be a lot of people that have had similar experiences, I find it fascinating to learn about but also frustrating to see the close mindedness of ‘science’ towards this subject.

[@tonynikolaos3527]

Very pertinent dialog on the Consciousness theme, while sticking to simplicity and essence. The doctor seems to had been himself transformed from his open-minded research. And he also pointed the Essence: Love is the core as the Unifying Essence of the Oneness, whereas Consciousness gets manifested through bodies/brains into tools by which it gets particularized specific experience in limited form. It is as if Consciousness is Here- while whatever of difference starts accumulating, permutating , replicating, the already Present Consciousness gets “HABITUATED” into that form and starts reflecting its own local experience- to itself and to its context. Hence, the form interacts, colors, filters, localizes as an Experience to Consciousness that limited specific form in that set up. Yet, when the form malfunctions, aspects of greater deeper more unified older memory gets available- pointing to the fact that: Consciousness is Primal, Essential, Basic- perhaps the Only Alive factor in play. Great Work towards bringing that idea comprehensible and totally the correct attitude from this doc! Thank you! ❤

[@Pkp2306]

I was at home one evening watching a movie in my lounge when all of a sudden my head exploded. When I say exploded, I mean internally. It was an explosion inside my head. My body completely froze and my there was a pounding inside my head that is hard to explain but it was like a steam cooker that was trying to burst out of its lid because of the pressure build-up inside. Whilst I was sitting there frozen wondering what had just happened my body started to evacuate all liquid from inside me. It was coming out of my mouth and out of the other end as well and I couldn’t do anything about it, I couldn’t move. During this I was still trying to figure out what had happened and my brain was working overtime to try and come to terms with it. I concluded I must be dying as they say the body evacuates everything at the point of death. I wasn’t scared at all but was thinking this is a very ‘inglorious’ way to go. Siting there in my own vomit and faeces. I was waiting for my soul/mind to leave my body and I was expecting this to happen at any point and I would be gone from this world. After a while I was still staring at the walls of my lounge and hadn’t gone anywhere. I decided to see if I could move at all and I fought really hard to try and make a finger move. Eventually I got one finger moving up and down and slowly worked away at the others. Eventually I managed to move forward and fall on to the floor and then crawled, very slowly, to my bed which wasn’t far away as it was a studio flat. I did this because I thought sleep would be the best thing to do and hopefully I would be okay when I woke up. I can remember lying there having an internal dialogue with myself that was a crazy pastiche of all my thought colliding and being jumbled and it was out of my control. Later I worked out I was lying there for about 4 hours. Eventually the smell of myself got to me and I decided I wasn’t going to lie there covered in gunk anymore. I am a very clean person by nature. I somehow managed to get up and get a shower. It was all very slow and like being in a dream. I eventually decided that something very serious had happened and I managed to call emergency services and asked for an ambulance who took me to hospital where it was diagnosed I had had an aneurysm burst in the back of my head. I will not bore you with my six week stay in hospital, which is another story in itself, but they put some coiling in the vein that had exploded to stop it leaking. They didn’t cut me open at all but did this by pushing the coiling up through a vein near my groin. The miracles of modern surgery. The surgeon told me that it was a incredible that I was alive or hadn’t had a paralysing stroke as it was quite a large bubble in my vein that had burst and would have killed eight out of 10 people and paralysed the other two. When I was released from hospital, in a relatively normal state, there was a very high frequency in my head, which is still there to this day, 24/7. If I was to take this frequency out of my head it would shatter all the glass in the nearby vicinity but it does not bother me at all. The Doctor thought it was tinea but there is nothing wrong with my ears and there is no pain associated with it. I have always been a very spiritual person and I had always talked to God and had a firm belief that I was a Spirit in a body. I started to ‘see’ things that others couldn’t, especially in the clouds which were full of faces and even full-blown persons. They didn’t speak to me as such but were very intent on watching me for some reason. There is much to tell here but it will leave it for now. I was staying with my mother during my recovery stage who lived alone and was in her 80’s. She wanted to keep an eye on me as I was still her little boy, I was 59 y.o. at the time. I had gotten into the habit of getting up in the early hours of the morning and sitting on the porch watching the stars. One morning I went out onto the porch and there was a large silver ball of light floating just above the house. Once again I froze because what I was seeing wasn’t possible. I stood looking at it for a long time. It was the same silvery white light as the stars in the heavens. I suddenly had a compulsion to wake up my mother so she could witness this miracle. Although not wanting to leave the 'star' I went and woke up my mother and told her she had to come outside and see what was happening. She got up and when she walked out onto the porch the star was still there. She was as amazed as I was. She asked me what it was and I said: ‘I think it’s a Star’. She was as amazed as I was. She suddenly asked me to take a photograph so she could show her friends. I wasn’t sure if this was the right thing to do but went and got my camera anyway. When I looked through the lens the Star wasn’t there but when I looked with my eyes it was still there. I turned to tell my Mother I couldn’t photograph it and she was standing there with her eyes shut tight. It was as if she was receiving some communication from the Star. I asked her if she was alright and she opened her eyes and said she was going back to bed. I was dumbfounded as I couldn’t believe she was walking away from a miracle. She would never tell me what had happened to her and refused to talk about it. Three months later she died very suddenly from a blood clot to the brain. I was heartbroken but it had been very quick and I thanked God for small mercies. Through my own research and experiences I now know that the aneurysm had reactivated my Pineal Crystal, wrongly called a gland. It is the unactivated part of the Human and the key to seeing behind the veil of existence. I still see what others would call ‘miracles’ on a daily basis and live in a very different world to everyone else I know. I do not talk about my experiences or the Star as people cannot deal with it and think I am mad or brain damaged by the aneurysm. I have never felt better in actual fact. The one thing that I do know, without doubt, is this world is not a planet, stars are not suns, and we are living in a Realm of Mindscape that is far beyond any Reality known to Mankind that I was aware of beforehand. I live alone now in my campervan and stay in touch with Nature as much as possible, moving from place to place and living by the sea as much as possible. I am writing a book about my experiences called: ‘Stars Are Not Suns’ which I hope to leave to the world when I am no longer here.

People know, at least those who are intersted - that reality is not what it seems to be. Donald Hoffman, John Archibald Wheeler, Edwardo Kastrup, James Glattfelder, Seth Lloyd or even approaching people like Tom Campbell and his youtube video: "Anu Physics Experiment and the Implications for Everyone". Plenty others, too many to mention here. Then you have a classic approach such as Peter Fenwick (his famous "the art of dying" research), or Ian Stevenson books, or even even Tom Shroder book (kind of easy to digest description of the research done by Ian Stevenson), where there is some confirmation of what Pim van Lommel is saying.

I had two out-of-body experiences in 2009, both times because of states of deep and profound spiritual bliss, the first time because of acceptance and revolutionary forgiveness, and the second time because of unconditional love and universal connectedness. The only difference between these two experiences and NDE's is that I was not clinically dead, although I felt my spirit get sucked out of my solar plexus. When I returned the first time, I knew beyond the shadow of a doubt three things, #1 - the Truth I had always sought in several different traditions, religious texts, gurus and teacher, etc. I had finally found and it was totally beyond doctrine and dogma. #2 - Everyone goes to this dimension when they make their transition ("die") #3 - There is no divine judgment or eternal damnation, only uncoditional love. The law of cause and effect will be effect when your Higher Self reincarnates once again, but while you are on the other side, it's pure unadulterated bliss, ecstacy, paradise.

I had a Atheist friend who was in a accident, and declared dead. He has a experience where he saw his deceased grandmother, and he said he was looking down at his own body during this experience. He was also able to explain what others said in detail, and where they were standing after he was declared dead. He didn't believe in anything spiritual before the experience whatsoever, he thought it was all fairytales. After the experience he became a believer in God. His life also changed drastically after the incident. He became a much better human being.

Very famous Indian mathematician, Srinivasa Ramanujan, said that all these amazing formulae all come to his head from God or a Goddess! He was just writing them down as instructed by the voice he heard and went to share them with people in the city as ordered by this higher power. He often had to work the formulae backwards, as he didn't now the symbols and their meanings. He encountered a scholar who was shocked at his brilliance and took him to the best mathematician in the area, to learn under his wing. He too was completely perplexed when he saw what Srinivasa was able to do. It came to him, just like it did to my son and we didn't know what to do .

Very good interview, even though he kept interrupting her and tried to control the interview. After watching dozens and dozens and dozens of videos and documentaries on NDE's, I must say that the things experienced out of body, that solidifies the reality, for me, is when the experiencers talk about detailed conversations their loved ones were having way down the hall, that were later verified. I remember one experience, this woman said, as she was leaving the hospital, in her out-of-body experience, that she saw a shoe on the roof, which was later verified, and it should also be noted, that women stayed in a room on the other side of the hospital, so no way she saw it from her window. Experiences like these, and so many more, leave me speechless and 100% sure of the velocity of said experiences.

12:53 That's why we did the longitudinal study about the transformation. And we saw that the main transformation is - no fear of death anymore. And the new insight was important in life. This is empathy, compassion, and love - first, towards yourself, acceptance of your own negative aspects. Acceptance or empathy, compassion towards others, and towards nature because they are connected with everybody else still. That's why they call it also the experience of oneness. 58:55 What is the most important insight you could share with people from your life, from your research, from your own learnings? I think the most important thing to realize is that everything it's about love: love towards yourself, love towards others, love towards the planet, love towards animals... Because we are connected. We're always connected here in this life. And we are connected when we die as well. We are always connected in a non-local conscious realm we are always connected as well. So the way you live changes everything. Should try to change the way you live. And it is also by changing your consciousness. It's about love. Interconnectedness. Empathy. Compassion. Nature.

Similar happened to me. I woke up in a panic the moment my grandmother passed away. I needed to know the time right away. I found out later in the day that my grandma had passed away at the time. I knew something was off that day. I could feel it but ignored it and didn't think anything of it. Until I was told the time of her passing. This was just the beginning for me. There was many more experiences to come. I never believed in anything beyond science but this experience and many others changed me. I learned LOVE and ONE which I now know is the Holy Spirit. I never grew up around religion and never read the Bible. I had no knowledge to go off of when this happened. I learned within years after it happening how it is connected.

Yes, you described elegantly what I also believe. I think of the brain as a filtering antenna for consciousness. It makes human life possible by filtering out the unnecessary information. It manages the corpus, and produces a local "identity" in order to have material experiences.

Brain acts as a receiver and a transmitter, nothing else...consciousness you could say is the medium to give awareness of that moment....western people don't understand these things...because they were taught differently.

In Budhism, there is an explanation to this. It is written in advanced Buddhist teachings called Abhidarama section. According to this theory, consciousness is associated with heart and blood circulation, not necessarily brain. It goes in Pali (buddha's language) like this (written in Sinhalese): දුරං ගමං එකචරන් -අසරිරන් ගුහාසයන් යෙ චිත්තං සංඥමෙස්සංති - මොක්කන්ති මාරබන්ධනා) .

I have clinically died 3 times and have had countless NDE's with having 2 x horrific disseases. The Spirit Realm is VERY REAL! In fact it is FAR more 'real' than this 3D realm! There is no judgment, no eternal hell and only UNCONDITIONAL LOVE with our Spirit Family on crossing over. Transition back into Spirit (death) is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL experience ever and if you only knew where your loved ones have gone to you would not be sad... You would be 'envious!' ✨️ 💫 🌈 No words suffice and the Spirit Realm is indeed eneffible because we do not have any concepts available to compare it to here on earth. Many only go as far as the Upper Astral (the earth like 'heavenly realms)' thinking there can be nithing beyond... I have gone as far as the Monad (the Master Oversoul) which was utterly non-physical and we were in a vast matrix of light. This was not physical light. It was metaphysical light and the light itself was pulsating with bursts of multidimensional expressions. We communicated simultaneously, psychically/telepathically and in that form we knew we were 'SOURCE' and we knew that we had never been anything else (and could never be anything else if we tried). My own NDE's were in congruence with your guests descriptions. It is all about 'love' and in this density of conscious experience we are learning to overcome and transend fear/separation mindset and to move into universal love and unity. In the Spirit Realm I was 'far more alive' and far more lucidly aware, far more knowledgabke and possessed a far more expanded state of consciousness than here and now embodied in 3D 'reality' typing this comment as a human being. But we are not humans seeking a spiritual expeience... We are SPIRIT having a brief and fleeting 'human experience'. This is activated on point of birth by having your Soul squished down in vibration, be 'plugged into a human avatar body vier the Central Nervous System and a swift memory wipe in your early years. Next thing you know you think you are just a human meet suit and need to seek a God outside of yourself (which is a start). If you want to 'find' the DIVINE then search within 'yourself.' ✨️ If you want to 'see' the DIVINE then see it in the eyes of another human being, in the reflection in the mirror and in all that you see around you.✨️ If you want to 'know' the DIVINE then go into silent meditation 🧘‍♀️ and build it up to 1.5 to 2 hours. Eventually you will "know thy self" (and then you will know GOD)✨️ If you want to 'become' the DIVINE, out of body, in as close to a NDE as you can get, (without dying), then 5MEO-DMT will get you as close as is possible (but it still falls short)! YOU DO NOT REALISE THE EXTREME LIMITATIONS THAT THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM IMPOSES ON YOUR SPIRIT's ABILITY TO PERCIEVE AS WELL AS EXPRESS CONSCIOUSNESS UNTIL YOU LEAVE THE BODY ENTIRELY AND RE-EMERGE BACK INTO YOUR NATIVE SPIRIT STATE! 🤯 I did not want to return to this disseased body but they have a way of convincing you on the other side and begrugingly returned each time with the aid of my 3 Spirit Guides on the pther side. It HURTS SO MUCH coming back into the body! Such a shock to the system and then you need to learn to "be human again" after being HOME for what can feel like months to years ✨️🏡 ✨️ I was shown so much and have made many videos 'attempting' to explain all I was permitted to bring back with me (I was not permitted to bring back some information for reasons that made sense at the time but now are foggy). I was shown that we are eternally existing Spirit Entities just "playing at being human." I was shown that Spirit Individuations such as you and I are co-creating "God's" with the DIVINE SOURCE and that each Spirit Individuation is a 'projection of SOURCE Energy' in form, in density exploring the 3D realm of:- "Experiencing all that you are 'not'." I was shown earth is the most diffcult realm of all due to the extreme catalyst of suffering, learning human emotions, short lifespan giving a sense of urgency and the energetic low vibrational veil which gives us 'amnesia' so we forget who and what we are, we forget all past lives and are born into these dense clumsy avatar bodies. Q) What is the Multiverse and what is its purpose? I asked! Eagerly!! A) It's a kind of Multidimensional Simulation within the UNIVERSAL MIND ( being a non-physical Psychic Gestalt of Inteligent Infinity, Infinite Inteligent Energy) projected out into multiple reality bubbles throughout the universe. It is a Mega-complex of fully Interactive Fractal Based 12D Hollographics in a kind of HIGHLY ADVANCED Virtual Reality system far beyond human words or frames of reference. It is INFINITE! It had no beginning, neither did you, though our universe goes through countles cyclical 'beginnings and endings of each iteration,' followed by more beginnings. The Hindu Cosmic Cycles (Yugas) are fairly accurate and the universe recreates itself cyclically like clockwork. There are an infinite number and variety of probable/possible stacked 'now moments' in waveform potential in "The Field." The humanly embodied Soul then has free will to choose from different timelines. You switch timelines all the time with simple choices that you make day to day unconsciously. It is mastering conscious timeline switching that transforms your imediate realty of your informed field. Consciousness creates 'matter' and matter is just merely an expression of consciousness in form, in density. This 3rd Density Realm is the realm of experiencing:- "overcoming in the face of suffering, overcoming your human emotions and learning human limitations only to eventually realise your limitlesness as an infinite Spirit Being. We were all asked if:- "we wanted to experience the absolute extremes in the unexplored lower vibtational realms" and were warned this was 'extremely tough' and that nothing could prepare us for this but that through this experience we regain appreciation, gratitude, humility and humbleness. We are in 'The Game of Physical Life' and are "God's in training" if you like... This is just my own personal firsthand experience however and others may have had a very different experience than I? I hope this helps in some way! 🙏

My introduction to this firstly was the series of books by the English writer Tuesday Lob Sang Rampa. In the late 60's an Englishman who wanted out of life - fell from climbing a tree, and was possessed with permission by a re incarnated Tibetan monk who had a mission on Earth. He wrote many books one important one called "You Forever". Many could not believe what he was saying, but read today would soon give rise to the position that he might have been legitimate. He gave instruction in metaphysical things including reading Auras and out of body travel. Today his legacy might be correlated to near death experiences, and Kirlian photography. Not long after, due to advances like defibrillation and CPR, a trail blazer was DR Elizabeth Kubler Ross, who studied near death as a trail blazer. During her time recording these she was dealt much flak from critics. Then came a doco called ' Beyond and Back' that hit the cinemas during the mid 70's. This was produced by Sunn shick movies. A real eye opener.

[@darrenwalker3986]

I died in hospital "care" in 2006. I was passing gall stones but they did not triage me. Instead, they dosed me with Midazolam and left me naked in a chilled room to die. I died of shock in a matter of minutes from the extreme pain. Perhaps they tried to kill me to harvest organs. When i died i found myself in a very dark place. I stood there for about 20 minutes. Eventually, i heard a loud bang. Then a second, and then a third. On the third i decide to investigate. As i walked towards where the sound came from, suddenly i was back in my body feeling the pain, and saw the doctor standing over me with the paddles in his hands. I experienced many other things in subsequent deaths, on the same day. I haven't watched the video, yet, to compare my experience. I watched it, and I totally agree with everything. We are not persons with a spirit, we are spirit with a person.

I've had memories of past lives that people have No Business having in this life. I've carried 2 particular memories which even my family know about. And I've had an out of body experience when i almost died well I tried to convince myself that it was some kind of dream. But it was and i was sent back but i didn't want to. I remember the problem's I left the worries and everything and i was beyond all human bonding. I instinctively knew that my experience has come home to the source as I love will, we are Eternal Beings, we must endure forever so we must experience else as A Conciousness we can only then be in stasis for as CHOICE is allowed to accompany you in this LIFE because CHOICE is prevalent to The Journey Regarding HUMANITY. It hasn't much further to go, but we have the whole Universe God Has just started. So Don't Be Afraid. Too many of us have had these experiences only now we can share them online. Mary

Everyone you have ever met and every experience you have ever had is included in your consciousness nothing is ever lost. The amount of what we can perceive depends on how expanded our consciousness is. Lately i cured my daughter with distance healing laying hands on her where she had pain you can do that all the time with all your loved ones in the seen and unseen. My mother who passed away was rejoicing when she saw me here having a child. I remembered that this was also a wish from her when she was physically present. Everything in the physical is an illusion. The art of living is to see through this illusion connecting with the real world. Past and future is an illusion. There is no time there is only now. Therefore compassion and empathy are so important to release the pain of so many souls that are stuck in the physical realm. Memory is a product of the mind. In essence we are all all knowing, complete and whole. The unseen spiritual realm is immense much more real and powerful when it comes to healing. Thank you for this presentation. It confirms a lot for me. Therefore honesty is so important in order to enter these other dimensions. Honesty with yourself and others.

Very interesting talk indeed worth watching. I had an NDE (Near Death Experience), 4 years ago in between two surgeries due to complications. It was never confirmed by doctors that I was actually in cardiac arrest as I was not on any monitors, however I am very sure it happened as I popped out of my body and was floating above my body seeing the doctors checking out the complication after my first surgery causing immense pain and made it impossible for me to breathe. I went into a tunnel and talked (telepathicly) with a being/energy that was not visible for me who told me everything was going to be alright. At that moment I was able to switch back seeing the doctors work on me but I decided to go back in the tunnel and I told this being/energy that I wanted to go "home", a flickering light about 600 feet away in the tunnel... But I guess I wasn't allowed to go there yet as a huge hand the size of my chest came out of the light in the tunnel and pushed me back from the tunnel into my body. I then remember I was wheeled into the operating room and I was put to sleep for the second surgery. I have held this to me for 3 years and only since a year I started speaking about this with family and friends and have extensively researched these experiences. Since that time I have become very spiritual and am no longer afraid of death. Actually I am secretly missing that place so much, wanting to go back as it was absolute bliss and peace. It is comforting to know that I will die some day and hopefully witness this again. If you're a person that is afraid of death, don't be, it will be absolute bliss, peace and all problems will immediately go away and it won't be the "end" of "you". Much love to all ❤

[@skyworkerBLN]

fantastic interview! This what Dr. P. just mentioned about consciousness and love - I do it exactly like he said and I just figured out, that happened intuitiv! Also the bad things which can happen to everyone in life, came out are not bad as it looks from one perspective-fear. life, consciousness, love... I think we all have it in us. sometimes we need more time to get through a dificult time, ....the point is, even if we not go through bad moments, it doesn't matter - time is still passing and the next moment is already programmed, you can't just stop existenz.... This I think are the last 2% of "fear" which Dr. P. has to accept. We all have to. I am curious - when we have consciousness, = we are consciousness? But what exactly are we truely? A beeing in another dimension? I always thought we are connected to everything and anyone.I figured out after a very heavy trip on acid (i took to much but I didnt knew it/I wook 3 full leaves!!!), we are all ONE. Not as we are all in the same boat, no its more of - we are all the same beeing and in a bigger scale (really big scale!) we are more the ONE and taking space and time. The hyper universes (= the universe over the universe) are the existenz, in a way that all questions a heard and all questions are with answers. I cant explain it more clearly, but everything is connected - and yes the most powerful energy we know is love. And in a bigger scale is a kind of together'ness. After death we just ended "a" life of unlimited lifes. The question is why? And when I had this really heavy trip I got the resond of a voice "the queston is who is asking" ---still dont know what that mean. Since this trip I stopped having this attitude "higher, better, faster, more, more more money -thing" - I am more in the moment, less in past & tomorrow (what is exactly the same). Result= I feel more, I feel everything, even the bad moments which comes across are not that bad any more, cause nothing can be destroyed or lost - cause we are all already conncected and will ever be. We are the matrix of consciousness stay curious!

Thank you for your fascinating response, I figured it out on my own too, through many intense experiences, loves and losses in my life. I loved what you wrote, when you questioned why, and you heard the response "the question is who is asking?" Intuitively I felt the answer is "To BE! To Become! To become the conscious soul,who can ask, appreciate and love." THAT is the answer to, Why. WOW, what an amazing interview..

What amazed the doctors was first that they manage to restart my heart after this time, the color of my skin was black blue and second that when I wake up after three days my brain didn't have any trace of damage, and according to them there is no explanation whatsoever to the fact that the brain survive all that time without oxygen, they told me don't know how to explain it, was a miracle, that's what they said.

[@lindaadams2315]

[@nsiabaservices9624]

I found myself on a road with endless light and unending. As I walked, I saw an old man in a white robe who asked what I wanted on the road. My simple answer was, I’ve come to join you and his response was I don’t merit joining them yet and that I need to go back and finish the labour given to me. What labour it is, is still unknown to me to date. I remember telling him, I have made it clear I won’t be weeding that dry land and if they want to me to complete the task, they should give me a land rich in food and animals I can feed on. He said, I said I can’t pick and choose but they will give me such a land as a bonus. He then handed me a paper that had the following written on it; If you ever decide to pull the balls of a dog(your enemy). Hold them well and firm or you get bitten. Don’t be shy or selective on what you do for a living. Unnecessary pride shuts open doors and even the dirtiest or less dignified jobs still put food on the table and pay bills. Be thankful when someone offers you even a cent because someone could kill for such a smaller amount. Growing good network and ties helps in self development and opportunities. Well calculated risks are always worth taken. Avoid anything gambling because it always takes more than what it will ever bring to you. I then found myself being pushed through an inferno on a stretcher with wheels and I gained consciousness. The surgeon asked what I was experiencing and I told him I am not ready to talk.

[@tedkirk7755]

I had two out-of-body experiences in 2009, both times because of states of deep and profound spiritual bliss, the first time because of acceptance and revolutionary forgiveness, and the second time because of unconditional love and universal connectedness. The only difference between these two experiences and NDE's is that I was not clinically dead, although I felt my spirit get sucked out of my solar plexus. When I returned the first time, I knew beyond the shadow of a doubt three things, #1 - the Truth I had always sought in several different traditions, religious texts, gurus and teachers, etc. I had finally found, and it was totally beyond doctrine and dogma. #2 - Everyone goes to this dimension when they make their transition ("die"), absolutely everyone. #3 - There is no divine judgment or eternal damnation, only uncoditional love. The law of cause and effect will be effect when your Higher Self reincarnates once again and all unsettled karmic debt must be paid, but while you are on the other side, it's pure unadulterated bliss, ecstacy, paradise.

[@sungarlic]

You are correct. The god as religion wants us to believe is love and light. Its much more than that in truth. The creator is Everything. Thats why you should accept yourself with all your darkness because you are creator yourself and god only loves you. God doesnt judge. Judgememt implies that You, gods creation, are imperfect. I am trying to see evil people as god experimenting with dark experiences. If there was no darkness we wouldnt appreciate light etc. The balanse is achieved when evil people have to carry all bad karma in next reincarnations. While we who suffer get to grow stronger and faster mentally and reach conclusion that Its not the conditions that matter but its the perception

There was a blue tint in the room. But was was the most impressive, it was the fact that he knew everything there was to know! He instantly knew the answers to his equations he was solving for a long time and he knew just everything there was to know! He knew about other planets, galaxies etc and he thought to himself: " how could I not have known this, silly me, that's so obvious!" Lots of other things had happened and then he noticed himself, sitting up in the bed!! He got very scared and lied down back on the top of his body. I don't know if he fell asleep instantly.

I have a question for you all... I have heard many people who have had NDEs say that this life is all about love. What are your thoughts on distancing yourself from people, especially family members or those very close to you, who have severely wronged you... How do you separate from them but still love them? I had to separate myself from a family member who is very narcissistic and lies and manipulates others. It was very painful to learn the truth and right now I still feel angry. Is it possible to truly love someone but cut them off b/c they are toxic? I have always been a peace keeper, so this situation has been very hard. I want to be a person full of love, but I also don't think its healthy to stay around toxic people. Does anyone have any thoughts on this matter?

[@auntiethetical]

I do not think I have ever had a complete NDE, however, when I was a child, seven or eight years old, I was briefly in a situation where I believed I was about to die. Every experience in my entire life flashed before me in the blink of an eye, complete with my thoughts and feelings, and those of anyone else involved. After being told repeatedly not to be silly, that couldn’t happen, I forgot the experience. When I remembered it as a young adult it was as fresh and clear as it had been at the time. Granted, I had only lived a short time when this occurred, but still it struck me as an impossibility. When I learned more about NDEs I was able to state that they are not a product of processes in a dying brain. My brain was in no danger of dying when this happened; I only thought it was. The physical brain is NOT the source of consciousness and the sooner materialist science accepts that, the sooner we will be able to discover what truly is.

[@varab6287]

My brother died. He was living with us and he hit his head on his night table and had a hematoma and died. After he was cremated which was shortly after his death I had a dream where he said Am I really dead? And I said yes honey you are really dead. So that was not really a normal dream in my opinion. It seemed like he didn't know he was really dead which people who have had NDEs have mentioned. That they didn't know they were really dead. Then I had a dream that I was in a room with my father who was sitting on the floor. The floor was a shiny wooden floor and he was sitting on the floor against the wall looking kind of depressed. But above him there was a big window and through that window came a light. And it wasn't your ordinary light It was a light that was everything love wisdom all encompassing, all embracing.

I have studied most forms of science, actually graduated from med school with a 4.0, and worked in applied neuroscience reversing brain damage in combat veterans with neuroplasticity. I have read the Vedas, most other major religions texts and philosophical writings, and all of the Five Great Philosophical texts of Buddhism. I have seen nothing on this side of life, or in my last, that tells me it isn’t Buddhism that is the best description for the ultimate nature of reality. You are not form, you can not be. The atoms that make up your body were made in a star billions of years ago, and to think that they have carried some imprints of your consciousness, along with everything else they have been a part of from since then, including the constant in and out of life forms that sustain your physical form, but you don’t assert you “began” when these atoms were formed. They themselves were formed from other pre existing sub atomic structures and particles that existed since the big bang, and as energetic consciousness before then. You are animating a group of particles that you have become attached to as you, by nothing other than ignorance. It’s self grasping, and nothing else and you can not find self if you look for it because it doesn’t inherently exist independently at all. All phenomena arise in dependence of all other phenomena. Everything is interconnected, and ultimately it is only consciousness. Even particle physicists agree with this. I’m sorry, but if you follow any kind of philosophy that follows logic or reason, especially science as it relates to non duality, trying to disprove this becomes incredibly difficult. If you are going to posit that you have an ending, then you must posit that you have a beginning and that is ultimately logically absurd. You have always existed, you are not form, definitely not your body, mine feels like a prison, and aI understand Shantideva now when he says that a human form is nothing more than a shit filled meat sack. You are only consciousness, and this is only a reflection of your mind. It ends eventually, but you absolutely have always and will also exist. You don’t remember, but I do. You also are not aware of your own self during sleep, and arise from that state every night, assuming that you do sleep nightly. This is like that. Your consciousness has far subtler levels that have become muted. Stating you end or have a beginning opens you up to all kinds of logical absurdities, it’s time itself that is an illusion. The only thing that exists is now. You just need to wake up and realize that. unfortunately until then, Samsara is endless horror. This human life is almost as good as it gets, unless you want to be reborn as a god, and burn up all the good karma in your mental continuum, and then the rebirths get incredibly painful and difficult. And long. but you wouldn’t believe me about that anyway. still, read a text on debate an logic, find one fallacy in The Four Noble Truths that you can assert and defend without any logical absurdities, and I’ll call you my teacher and follow you. But you won’t. No one else ever has, and I have watched multiple western scholars with PHDs in multiple scientific studies and fields try, and fail to do so, and all of them agree with this assessment as well. I’m not happy about this being the trigger about our existence, but once you realize it is, it makes far more sense to do something about it. I’m getting the F out of here and going to India. The sooner I’m in monk’s robes actually working on this situation the better. I want to wake up, because for whatever reason I have started to and I really don’t want to continue to fall farther into ignorance and suffering. I do remember. even day, every minute.

That is why there's a smell when you cut grass, a chemical reaction to being cut, hardly different than if you'd melted iron or frozen some water.

@infinitedeath1384 you, I, and the grass you see all came from the same star. So there's no REAL difference there. Sure, there are contrasts here and with there being different forms of consciousness, but it's all the same thing. Its like an enormous strand of dna with you and everything around you. There is no definitive difference between you and nature. Essentially, when the pot boils down, you are nature.

@@ruggs0_037 Well I don't believe we came from a star. We came from God.

Mijn geboorte was denk ik een NDE of een out of body experience, dat kan ook. Als kind altijd aanwezigheid gevoeld en herinnering gehad aan lichtwezens. Ik kan ernaar verlangen weer in ze op te gaan. Ik ben fan van Pim.

An lsd experience caused me to leave my body for about ten hours. It was a green dragon. I was in space looking at the earth. Football size. I thought ' wow, I'm really here!' My vision was exactly like it is in the body. Not 360° as mentioned. I thought ' I'm not cold, frightened, hungry, I just am. Other amazing things happened, I asked a question and got an immediate answer, but I had no control over where I went or anything else. I was powerless in that respect.To cut a long story short, I re entered my body and it was only when I was half way in that my body then felt my consciousness coming down into my body. ( It didn't all go into the head and stop there, no it went further down into the body also. I opened my eyes said wow, then discovered that I my body had been sitting in the same position as when I'd sat down ten hours before. One leg on the thigh of the other. Ten hours sitting in the same position! No pain or discomfort at all, like I'd just sat down. I was going to sit down on the sofa cross legged but only had time to put one leg up.

I absolutely love Dr. Pim Van Lommel, and indeed, the interview was a bit too short :) but amazing!
