What are Near Death Experiences (NDEs)? 😇

 

Near Death Experiences (NDEs) are profound personal experiences associated with dying and coming back to life, which researchers describe as having similar characteristics, including seeing bright lights, having Out-Of-Body Experiences (OBEs), and even undergoing ‘life reviews’. They are triggered during singular life-threatening episodes. There are some mind-blowing accounts of NDEs which this post discusses. This also links with our posts on life after death (that discusses common questions such as What happens? Where do we go? Do we see loved ones?) and past life memories (especially those from children who had no way of knowing the information provided), as well as interesting work from some mediums/psychics.

Near Death Experience Stories and Examples ✨

 

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.
• Still feeling like themselves (same awareness, memories, and personality/they did not dissolve into infinite consciousness), but experienced reality free from the filters of the brain and body.
• 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.
• Being 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.
• Feeling a profound sense of peace and unconditional, infinite love.
• Feeling connected to all and everyone, including God.
• Learning that signs from god/the universe/spirit guides are the first initial intuitive thought/gut feeling, anything after that is your brain overthinking.
• Remembering pre-birth experiences of choosing this life (from choosing this planet, to your parents, to how you will look, to how bright you will be) for the experiences that would be gained, tailored to your soul’s growth/their soul’s current level of development/maturity (e.g. some may be better off not living as an extremely bright person as that would bring extreme arrogance, or not too good looking as they would be too easily distracted by the attention of others which doesn’t tick what they need).
• A knowing 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.
• Learning that he meaning of life/our life purpose is to grow as a soul and become more godly; build positive traits love, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, integrity, and service to others are essential for spiritual growth and lead to greater happiness beyond this life/ascend to higher realms.

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.

An interesting counter-take of this is shared by David Icke. He says that the initial afterlife visions 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 doesn’t say that loved ones aren’t waiting for us, but that initial visuals could be manipulations and not true. He touches on this in the 10th 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.

Another theory that links to this is that of John Lear. He suggests that when your soul leaves the body there’s a structure on the moon that sends your soul back to earth to be reincarnated like a reincarnation trap, rather than choosing to reincarnate for more soul growth and life experiences.

 

Near Death Experience Books and Videos 🎥

 

There are many renowned NDE books, including Eben Alexander’s near death experience book ‘Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife‘ and Raymond Moody’s ‘Life After Life: A Groundbreaking Exploration of Near-Death Experiences and the Transformative Insights into the Afterlife, Backed by Scientific Study and Personal Testimonies‘. 

For videos on NDEs, see the near death experiences shared on YouTube below. These include the research, documentaries, experiences of cardiac surgeons, neurosurgeons, nurses and accounts from those that have experienced NDEs themselves (including near death experiences of heaven, seeing past loved ones, angels and God).

The 5th video down of neurosurgeon Eben Alexander (a self proclaimed sceptic until his illness) is profound in that the disease he had shut off all parts of the brain (including the neocortex which is responsible for sensation, action, cognition, and consciousness). Another profound part of his experience is the girl he met. He had never met her before, but later in life he connected with his real parents and there was a picture of the girl in the house. They explained that that was his sister who passed away.

Bill Letson‘s NDE video (the 6th video below) is also a popular watch, accumulating a high number of views. He mentions a number of things including, “Flying through space past orbs,  feeling everything a human wants to feel, with no negatives feelings such as anger, like a cosmic orgasm!”. Also, 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 part of Bill Letson’s NDE is when he says he was met by beings that look just like the “small hooded warthog men that look just like the characters from the 1989 movie ‘Communion’”. Described as, ugly hooded aliens, specifically smaller, blue-faced creatures often described as “munchkin-like,” who accompany the taller, classic “Grey” aliens during abduction scenes in the film. They were asking “well how was it?” and laughed at the fact he didn’t remember them. A woman reached out to Letson saying she was taken by these many times as a kid. This also links to ‘blue dwarf aliens’ being said to be seen to take people, including a story of a pregnant woman who they came to see saying they didn’t come for her, but the baby boy (she didn’t know the gender at the time). They also asked her why she looked so scared and she said “because you’re ugly,” and they said “you’ll end up looking like us one day!”. There could be a connection between how Letson was made to feel like one of them and how they said we end up looking like them to the woman. This also links the elites leaving clues to hidden truths in plain sight via mediums like Hollywood movies. More can be read on this via our posts that mention Hollywood here. Here is an image of the “small hooded warthog men”:

The 8th video of Simon Brown on We Don’t Die Radio touches on a number of NDEs and a lot of profound OBEs. This includes a hospital patient that was pronounced dead and when brought with resuscitation, explained in detail a pair of trainers on the roof of the hospital that were completely out of sight, including markings on them where they were worn away and how they were placed. A nurse went up to check and found them as described.

In video 9, Jeff Olsen tells of his NDE that was caused by a car crash. In the crash were also his wife and two kids. His wife and one of his children passed away from the car crash and he was with them in his NDE, but he chose to come back to father the child that was still alive.

Video 11 is an interview with Professor Dean Brinson, who died at the hospital and was transported by his spiritual mentor to the Afterlife. He discovered the astral and causal levels of Heaven, his past lives, and the truth about the other side. He was taught about karma and how one can move through these levels. Professor Brinson is also an advocator in diet (he doesn’t eat meat) and how all energy is connected. He has been eating plant-based for decades.

NDEs are compared with other outer-body experiences such as those in DMT experiences. In the video below, Holden Lee says he smoked DMT and met the same entity from his Near Death Experience (NDE), suggesting that this is another realm that isn’t just experienced through DMT (more can be read on this here).

For another perspective, in the video below a doctor discusses what he has observed people seeing as they pass away:

 

Pre-Birth Memories from Near Death Experiences 💭

 

A profound Near Death Experience (NDE) that brought back pre-birth memories is that of Aaron Green. Aaron describes an NDE he had shortly before his sixth birthday after suddenly being unable to breathe. As his body collapsed, his consciousness left his body, and he observed events from outside his body. He experienced a rapid, detailed life review in which he not only relived his own emotions, but also felt the emotional impact of his actions on others, especially his parents.

While out of his body, he gained intuitive knowledge through direct understanding rather than spoken communication. He realized he was not his physical body, but a soul (an orb of consciousness) and remembered existing before birth. He recalled originating in a “sea of light” with many other souls, where he chose selflessness by giving up a gift, which led to being selected for further spiritual development. He encountered a powerful creator being (which he calls God, that appeared like a very bright sun and had beings/spirit guides within itself), who explained that souls must freely choose virtues like love, compassion, and honesty through lived experience, rather than being forced into them, because free will is essential. This links to the meaning of life/life purpose explained in the alleged capture of an extraterrestrial being when asked questions about life (more can be read in this post).

Aaron remembered choosing to incarnate on Earth from many possible planets, feeling strongly that Earth was where he wanted to learn. He also recalled having lived many past lives and working with spiritual guides to plan his current one. Together, they selected his parents, gender, appearance, intelligence, and life challenges to best support his spiritual growth. He initially liked the idea of being a ginger girl, as it was a rarer on Earth to be ginger and he thought it was “a cool look”, but the experiences and growth he needed wasn’t available in this state (he needed to choose different parents and looks). Some hardships, including injuries, were understood as consequences of actions in past lives, not as punishment, but as opportunities to learn from them (why you shouldn’t do them and their effects) and resolve karmic debt.
He was shown that between lives, souls inhabit realms that reflect their inner nature. Loving souls experience pleasant realms, while hateful souls experience unpleasant ones. He remembered having close spiritual friends and a joyful realm he would return to after this life.

Eventually, a being of light told him he must return to his body, and he instantly recovered physically. Later, his guides asked him to agree to forget the experience so he could live his life as intended, promising the memories would return later. Years afterward, reading about Eben Alexander’s near death experience triggered the return of his memories.

The central message Aaron takes from the experience is the meaning of life/our life purpose is to grow as a soul and become more godly; build positive traits love, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, integrity, and service to others are essential for spiritual growth and lead to greater happiness beyond this life (then we can ascend to higher realms/before having these soul growth experiences, we are not ready to access higher realms). Life also has great experiences for us to enjoy, but soul growth is the key objective.
