Answering Questions on Life After Death 💭
Common life after death questions include – What happens? Where do we go? Do we see loved ones? The videos below show the research that different people have done into answering these questions, starting with a video from The Infographics Show named ‘Science Experiment Proves Afterlife is Real’ that summarizes on many of these questions.
This article links with our Near Death Experiences article and past life memories article (especially those from children who had no way of knowing the information provided, which also includes interesting work from some mediums/psychics). Note that NDEs have become more frequent since developments in technology giving the ability to revive people from cardiac arrests and other critical conditions. In summary, people share similar experiences. These experiences include leaving the body, but still perceiving everything and going into another reality where you meet passed loved ones, ‘angels’ and ‘god’.
It is also worth reflecting on the Double Slit Experiment that links to the Holographic Universe theory. This experiment shows that the act of consciousness observing matter affects the way that matter behaves. As such, leading physicists in the World Science Festival, as well as Elon Musk and former NASA physicist Tom Campbell believe that consciousness is the infinite source and reality is a simulation.
“You don’t die, as a consciousness you never die,” Deepak Chopra.
“You can’t divide or multiply consciousness. It’s formless, infinite, spaceless, timeless, irreducible, fundamental, unimaginable, but the source of imagination. It cannot be conceptualized, but is the source of conception. It cannot be perceived, but is the source of perception.” Erwin Rudolf Josef Alexander Schrödinger, one of the pioneers of quantum mechanics.
“We are asleep. Our Life is a dream. But we wake up sometimes, just enough to know that we are dreaming,” Ludwig Wittgenstein.
When looking into the life after death YouTube videos, stories, documentaries and podcasts below, they all tend have the same message that you are infinite awareness having a human experience; you’re a soul that has embodied your body which filters everything else out so that you only perceive this level of reality for this experience. These include life after death insights from professors, researchers, Dolores Cannon, Peter Fenwick, David Icke, Anita Moorjani, Sadhguru, and Tom Campbell.

Lessons from Near Death Experiences 🧠
NDEs have become more frequent since developments in technology giving the ability to revive people from cardiac arrests and other critical conditions. In summary, people share similar experiences. These include:
- Experiencing ‘bed visits’ by passed loved ones when ill in hospital
- Floating out of the body in an Out-Of-Body Experience (OBE)
- Whilst in an OBE, recalling details that happened in the hospital (the same room and other rooms) when they were meant to be dead
- Seeing a bright white light/a tunnel of light/a tunnel with light at the end
- Flying through space past stars and orbs
- Being with others that died at the same time of the incident that caused the NDE
- Having a life review, but they are the only judge of their life (not a judgmental figure or God) and experience how they made others feel, sometimes said to be learning with compassion
- Being greeted with great love and excitement from passed loved ones (that look in their prime, often in their 30’s), the same way we are when we are born into this world, in a ‘heavenly realm’ that looks similar to Earth, but more vivid (e.g. a wider spectrum/shades of colours) and no physical restrictions (e.g. nothing ages or dies, things that can’t be done here can be done there etc.)
- Being reunited with pets
- Meeting people that they have never seen before, but seeing them in family photos later in life, after the NDE
- Seeing people that they thought were still alive, but finding out after NDE that they were dead
- Given messages to say to loved ones – a great example of this is an NDE where someone was told to tell another person who was still alive ‘sorry for ruining the car’, which she knew nothing about, but the other person knew exactly what was meant by this and the person in the NDE did ruin the car in a crash that killed them
- A profound sense of peace and unconditional, infinite love
- Feeling connected to all and everyone, including God
- A knowing of all including that life is to be lived to gain experiences, fulfil purpose, and to be enjoyed (some have explained this as ‘we are manifesting god wanting to play’)
- Learning valuable lessons to give meaning, purpose, and to live life to the full
Many believe NDE’s are direct proof and evidence of the afterlife. Here’s a top comment from the TED Talks video in the previous section:
Do we see Passed Loved Ones again? 😇
Here’s a quote regarding the question, ‘Do we see loved ones again?’:
‘Imagine you’re in primary school and you have a friend who is a couple of years older that’s leaving to go to secondary school. You’ll miss them for the years that they’re gone, but know you’ll be with them again in the future.’
Also, Bill Letson‘s NDE video below touches on this and has accumulating a high number of views. He mentions a number of things including feeling back where he belonged and that, “All passed loved ones are fine, they are just a bit further down the path than you in the afterlife dimension.” He also discusses life purpose, saying that we are all here for a reason; to live life to the fullest and learn/grow as a soul. He says “Make those on the other side proud of what you do here”.
An interesting counter-take of this is shared by David Icke. He says that the initial afterlife perceived could still be part of this same simulation we experience in life and that we are being manipulated to go to ‘the light’ to encourage reincarnation, but we should ascend this reality to a higher dimension. He also believes that any loved ones that we initially perceive are just projections taken from the Akashic Records (a record stored in another dimension of all human events, thoughts, words, emotions, and intent ever to have occurred) to encourage us to go towards the light and reincarnation. He touches on this in the video below.
This links with the Native American beliefs to not walk straight into the “dazzling bright light”, but to orientate yourself and wait for the right, “warmer light”. Across several Native American traditions, the general theme is, “The soul must not rush toward the first bright phenomenon it sees.” The first “light” may represent confusion, the shock of leaving the body, trickster forces, the land of the dead who are not at peace, the realm of ghosts, or simply the initial disorientation of the spirit leaving the physical world. Instead, the newly departed must wait for true guides (ancestors, spirits, helpers), orient toward the correct direction or trail, choose the proper kind of light (gentle, warm, ancestral) over a blinding or chaotic one. This is conceptually very close to Tibetan, Egyptian, and even some Gnostic afterlife teachings about deceptive or confusing lights. Also, in the Buddhist Saṃsāra reincarnation wheel, it is said one has to ‘be enlightened’ to detach from it.
In addition, in the ‘Emerald Tablets‘, Thoth describes that in the regions reached after death, there exist “shadows” or “dark brothers” who travel only in straight, linear paths. He warns that these beings seek to bind or trap the unprepared soul (this potentially links to David Icke’s findings to not walk towards the initial bright light observed after death, as he believes it is a reincarnation trap). He then instructs that by moving in a curved or circular path, one can break free of their line of influence, since the dark beings cannot follow motion that is not straight. He adds that curved motion aligns with the geometry of higher realms, while straight-line movement is characteristic of lower astral entities. He doesn’t say that loved ones aren’t waiting for us, but that initial visuals could be manipulations and not true.
