Transcript: "I can remember one occasion with a little girl. Her parents had been drowned and her brother had been drowned. It's an extraordinary story . . . When she was resuscitated, she told the nurses and told us that she went into a garden while she was unconscious. She was greeted and looked after by a very kind man who took her to her mother and father, who took her to her little brother who she was worried about. He introduced her to people who were her grandparents whom she had never seen. And the mother told her where to find certain articles and papers when she returned home so she would be OK. She then came back home and found the articles. It appears that not only had she never met her grandparents, but she knew facts about her grandparents that there is no way she could have known. She was most serene, with great hope, at the funeral . . . It's that sort of experiences that change people's lives and make them happier and more secure even to the point where they no longer fear death." This story from Father Peter McGrath comes from a documentary that features early near-death experience accounts. It includes comments from Vi Horton, Paul Swain, Jan Kingsbury, Barry Otto, Dr. Raymond Moody, Father Peter McGrath, and Dr. John Vinen.

Transcript: I heard a voice say to me, “You have not fulfilled your purpose here.” I said, “What is my purpose?” And this voice says to me, “The same as every man. You were put on the Earth to take care of the Earth...” We, as men, are here to take care of the Earth. That’s one of our responsibilities. It was very personal. He said, “You’re not to strip mine the Earth. You’re not to pollute the Earth. You’re not to destroy your home.” And I was being indicted, because I was responsible. I was a litterer. I was one that didn’t care about nature or the environment at all. And this was a beautiful home that God had created for me to live in and enjoy. And [The Voice] said, “Secondly, you’re here for the animals. They look up to you. You’re the one with the spirit. You’re the one with reason, with intelligence, with the strength to change things, the ability to protect them and take care of them and do for them. They don’t have that ability. And yet you destroy species after species.” And I knew that I was responsible, partly responsible. I had hunted for sport. I had no concern for animals. I never showed any compassion. I didn’t have any compassion for animals or men. And [The Voice] said, “Thirdly, and most importantly, you’re here for each other. And you -- this imperative, YOU -- I sent to be part of the answer. You’ve just been part of the problem.” ....... This video is excerpted from a much longer video that is located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7DKVEvx2-8 .......

Excerpt: "[Jesus taught me] three things that changed my life and I think were the major reasons He told me I had to come back: "1. Can you imagine being in the room with somebody who knows every single minute detail of your life and totally accepts you and totally loves you? We have a God of love who always [wants the best for us]. "2. There are many different realms in life after death, not just two [heaven or hell]. The type of life we live here determines where we are going when we leave here. God doesn't send us to heaven or hell or purgatory or anything else. But you don't leave kindergarten here and go to the university. You've got to go through grade school, intermediate school, high school, and the type of grades you make determine which university you are going to . . . You go to whatever realm you are best suited to go to. "3. Life really is forever. We don't die. Death is nothing more than a gateway through which we go." ....... At the age of twenty, George Ritchie died in an army hospital and was pronounced dead twice by the doctor on duty. Nine minutes later he returned to life. Dr. Ritchie wrote of his near-death experience (NDE) in Return from Tomorrow, co-written with Elizabeth Sherrill, in 1978. In Return from Tomorrow, he tells of his out-of-body experience, his meeting with Jesus Christ, and his travel with Christ through different dimensions of time and space. Return from Tomorrow has been translated into nine languages. Ritchie’s story was the first contact Dr. Raymond Moody, PhD had with NDEs, during his undergraduate studies in philosophy at the University of Virginia. This led Moody to investigate over 150 cases of NDEs in his book Life After Life and two other books that followed. Moody’s first book, Life After Life, was dedicated to Ritchie: “To George Ritchie, M.D. and, through him, to the One whom he suggested.” In 2019, Raymond Moody also described Ritchie as “the finest human being I have ever known.” .......

You are in the presence of the Son of God.' I had never seen such a being. He was powerfully built even in His spiritual transfigured body, which radiated a brilliant white light. I thought, 'No wonder He could walk through a mob and no one would attack Him, if His physical body was anything like His magnificent spiritual body.' In fact, He did not look like any of the paintings I had seen of Him in the stained glass windows of the churches where I had been. This was no sweet, gentle Jesus, meek, weak, or mild. Here stood a robust male who radiated strength. "Due to the brilliant light emitting from this Being it was difficult to make out the color of His hair or eyes but I sensed, more than saw, that He had blue eyes with chestnut-brown hair parted in the middle. He was slightly taller than I, which would place His height at over six feet, two inches. Though He was dressed in a magnificent white robe, his powerful muscular frame shone through. He was ageless and yet appeared about 35 years of age. "All of the above description is not sufficient to describe the most outstanding thing about Him. Here stood a Being that knew everything I had ever done in my life, for the panorama of my life surrounded us, and yet He totally accepted and loved me. I have never felt such love or compassion. Before He entered the room, I was desperately alone and frightened and could only think about how I could return to my body so I might be able to continue my life on Earth. After being in His presence and feeling His love, I never wanted to leave Him again for any reason. Nothing I had, no one I had ever known on Earth, could make me want to leave Someone who loved and accepted me like this One." .......

Excerpts: "I can't tell you how many times I hear 'I want the NDE without the ND [near death] part.' But there's lots of ways to remember who we are. You don't need to do the ND part. A lot of people want the flashy, spiritually transformative experience of an NDE or something that happens that changes their whole life in an instant. Well, when you have that, unless you have already done the work before you had that experience, you're going to have to do that work after that experience." "A spiritually transformative experience is not always just magic. It can be very disruptive. And very, very difficult afterwards. It may not always be, but it can be. 'Be careful what you wish for,' is what I am saying. [A flashy, spiritual experience] may not be the best way for you. You may be working your way along slowly, slowly, and you may be a lot farther along than you think you are. Just keep going. It's your path. It's your path, and your path is valuable for you. Their path is not valuable for you." ....... This video is excerpted from an interview that Natalie Sudman did with Karen Swain. The original interview, complete with many important insights, is located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFM9_A4spTw&t=170s ....... Natalie worked as an archeologist in the Great Basin states for sixteen years before accepting a position managing construction contracts in Iraq. As a female civilian employee of the Army Corps of Engineers in Basrah and Nasiriyah, Iraq, she was riding in a truck when a roadside bomb destroyed the vehicle. As a result of the severe injuries her body received from this roadside bomb, Natalie had a near-death experience where she left her body and entered the spirit world. There it was decided that her work on Earth was not done and with the help of spirit guides, they repaired the body so she could reenter it. She retained the conscious memory of what happened and during the time in the hospital, more details returned. Before this experience, Sudman was dubious about anything that smacked of the paranormal. This experience made her a believer. After being injured in Iraq, Natalie retired from government service. She is now enjoying art, writing, and continuing explorations into the non-physical. Natalie has also been a subject of studies performed by the University of Virginia’s Division of Perceptual Studies, and welcomes invitations to act as a lab rat for any scientific investigation. Describing herself as an open-minded skeptic, Natalie finds that the rigorous methodology of science appeals to her critical mind, while her artistic nature enjoys the expansive freedom of leaving behind the critical mind in frequent forays into the non-physical. She maintains that an irreverent sense of humor and a willingness to look foolish are the cornerstones of constructive exploration. Raised in Minnesota, Natlie Sudman has lived most of her adult life in eastern Oregon, Montana and South Dakota. She recently moved to southern Arizona. Natalie’s two-dimensional work is available through Davis & Cline Galleries in Ashland Oregon. Her ceramics are available online at Inyan Trace Art Studio. She occasionally blogs at Trace of Elements. .......

Transcript: "If you're pining to have a near-death experience . . . I would say don’t! This is not what you want. It may seem like a blessing, but it is often [as much] a curse, as it is a blessing. It leaves one disassociated. It leaves one depressed. I went through a long period of depression. I live a life of non-attachment, not detachment, but non-attachment. My connectivity is to the other side, not so much here." Excerpted from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8aHiwnbXY0 ....... Reverend Peter Panagore, M.Div (Yale) has had two near-death experiences, the first while ice climbing in 1980 and the second in 2015 due to a heart attack. He recounts these in his book Heaven Is Beautiful: How Dying Taught Me That Death Is Just the Beginning, an Audible Best Seller available globally in nine editions. His best-selling second book, Two Minutes for God: Quick Fixes for the Spirit, is a collection of original inspirational devotional stories, many of which he told for 15 years on a daily TV show reaching 30 million viewers annually in Maine and New Hampshire. Previously, he served as a United Church of Christ minister and pastor in Maine and Connecticut. He published 150 sermons and many prayers in Homiletics, a leading clergy journal. He now runs a global spiritual counseling service for “closet mystics” and travels nationally as a public and inspirational speaker and teacher. He has been practicing Zazen/Centering Prayer and Kundalini/Kriya Yoga for forty years. .......

Transcript: "I felt like I was not even human anymore, that I had been changed somehow into this spiritual being that walks through life and would look up at the sky and see the trees and feel this amazing, amazing love that God has. It was permeating EVERYTHING. It was in the rocks. It was in the trees and I could feel it. I walked around in this bliss cloud for two weeks just knowing God and feeling His love so profoundly. And then it started to fade and I kind of freaked out and I started to pray: 'Heavenly Father, why, why are you pulling away? Am I not being good enough? Is something wrong?' "And He said, 'Ryan, I've carried you for two weeks. Now I am walking beside you. You need to learn and reach out and learn how to bring me into you. And how to encourage the relationship we have we each other.' "And so that was the next part of my journey…" .......

Transcript: "I felt like trillions of billions of gigabytes of information were being downloaded to me . . . Imagine a computer; imagine a laptop; a little piece of metal that is worth a hundred dollars. It’s nothing. It’s a piece of metal. You just take a wire, connect the laptop to the wire. Connect the wire to the wall. And within a split second, this little piece of metal that is worthless has access to all the information in the world using the internet. With one press of a button, any type of search you make on that little piece of metal, that computer, has access to any type of information. I felt like I’m this little entity being connected to the MAIN mother source of information. I can’t even say internet. But the MAIN source of information. It’s as if an endless amount of information is being downloaded to me simultaneously. This is what it was. I was able to see God’s wisdom and derive pleasure. There’s no words to describe that pleasure. I get lots of questions like 'What did you see? What do you mean you saw God’s wisdom? What are the secrets of the universe?' There are really no words to describe it . . . It’s understanding something that is beyond what our mind can understand. Our mind has limits. This is limitless. Something limited cannot understand something limitless. "This whole process -- the downloading of the information -- nothing stayed. I wasn’t able, I didn’t have the ability to hold it; I didn’t have the ability to sustain it. It just washed me. I didn’t have the vessel to actually hold that information. As it was going, as pleasurable as it was, there was also a tremendous feeling of the opposite of pleasure that I can’t hold it, that I can’t sustain it, that I can’t grasp it and keep it. It says in many sources that our acts in this world create a spiritual vessel that when our soul leaves the body it has the tool to actually hold that Godly life, to hold that Godly revelation, to be able to hold that Godly wisdom. I wasn’t able to hold it. I was able to see it. I was able to enjoy it. But I wasn’t able to hold it. So simultaneously it was a tremendous feeling of pleasure and at the same time this very strong feeling of the opposite of pleasure. I really don’t know how to define it. It wasn’t really sorrow. It was a feeling that I can’t keep it. Almost like taking a little kid to a toy store and letting him run there and at the end of it, telling him, 'OK, now we have to go home and you can’t keep any of the toys. You have to leave all the toys here. Now it’s time to go home.'" Watch Alon's full account here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee3UTF4pOlE ....... Before his near-death experience, Alon Anava, a Jewish man who grew up in Ra’anana, Israel, describes himself as rough, rude, mean, and not a nice person. After his near-death experience, Alon says he was transformed into someone who was nice, calm, courteous, and soft spoken. Whereas before he was a highly trained martial artist, now he attends Yeshiva studying every day, exploring the depths of Torah, refining and elevating himself on a daily basis. Alon also claims to have returned with the ability to connect to God in a way that allows him to connect with others and help them overcome their questions and concerns. During his free time, he shares his near-death experience and what he learned from it. Alon is also a photographer and web designer. .......

Excerpt: "I felt not only that I was loved unconditionally, it was like I just was love just because I existed -- no other reason. I also felt unconditional love for everyone and everything, even for people that may have hurt me during my life. All I felt for them was unconditional love and compassion and a knowing that no matter what they did, even if they hurt me really badly . . . they were still doing the best they knew how at the time. It was like I understood why they did what they did . . . that feeling of unconditional love is not even a feeling of forgiveness towards those that hurt you -- it's beyond forgiveness; it's like I understand why you did what you did, and therefore there is nothing to even forgive. Because when I understand you, to me it means you haven't even done anything wrong. To forgive someone means to say you've done something wrong and I forgive you for it. There's a judgement there. There was no judgement . . . it's almost like having walked a mile in their shoes; it's a knowing that if I was in your shoes, I would have done the same, so there's nothing to forgive. That's the kind of feeling of unconditional love. In that realm this was all I could feel for everyone, and that was what I felt surrounded with. I encountered my father who had passed away 10 years before, and my best friend Soni, who had passed away two years prior to that, and I was also surrounded by other beings who I didn't recognize. But all I felt from them was this unconditional love, as though they were there purely to help me, to guide me, help me through this transition." ....... This video excerpt comes from a September 2012 interview that Anita Moorjani did with Lilou Mace. The original video is located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWf8V1PXN-k ....... On Saturday, March 23, 2013, near-death experiencer and New York Times bestselling author Anita Moorjani spoke at the Creative Life Center in Sedona, Arizona. This special event was co-sponsored by NewHeavenNewEarth (NHNE) and The Mustard Seed Venture. Anita Moorjani was born in Singapore of Indian parents. At the age of two, Anita moved to Hong Kong where she grew up speaking English, Cantonese and Sindhi, an Indian dialect. In April of 2002, Anita was diagnosed with cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma). After four years of struggling with cancer, Anita's body, riddled with tumors the size of lemons, began to fail. In February of 2006, she slipped into a coma. Doctors gave her hours to live. As her body lay dying, Anita entered another dimension. In this otherworldly place, Anita experienced profound peace and love. She also learned many things about life, and the laws of life, including how she had caused her own cancer. Then she was given a choice: stay on the other side, or return to Earth. After being reassured that her body would heal itself if she returned, Anita chose to return and share with others what she learned. To the amazement of her doctors, Anita woke up from her coma and within weeks her body was fully healed. Anita's life is now filled with the depths and insights she gained while in the other realm. World renowned author Dr. Wayne Dyer discovered Anita's story and encouraged her to write a book. Anita's book, "Dying to be Me," hit the New York Times Bestsellers List only two weeks after its release in March, 2012. Because of the power of her story, Anita regularly addresses sell-out crowds all over the world. .......

"Oh Beautiful Human" In 1982, after suffering from terminal brain cancer, Mellen-Thomas Benedict "died." His body was monitored for an hour and a half after he died and showed no vital signs. Miraculously he returned to his body with a complete remission of the disease. While on the other side Mellen journeyed through several realms of consciousness and beyond the light at the end of the tunnel. He was shown during his NDE, in holographic detail, Earth’s past and a beautiful vision of mankind’s future for the next 400 years. He experienced the cosmology of our soul’s connection to Mother Earth (Gaia), our role in the Universe, and was gifted with access to Universal Intelligence. NDE author/researcher Dr. Kenneth Ring says that Benedict's NDE "is one of the most remarkable I have encountered in extensive research on near-death experiences." Mellen-Thomas writes: "In 1982 I died from terminal cancer. The condition I had was inoperable, and any kind of chemotherapy they could give me would just have made me more of a vegetable. I was given six to eight months to live. I had been an information freak in the 1970’s, and I had become increasingly despondent over the nuclear crisis, the ecology crisis, and so forth. So, since I did not have a spiritual basis, I began to believe that nature had made a mistake, and that we were probably a cancerous organism on the planet. I saw no way that we could get out from all the problems we had created for ourselves and the planet. I perceived all humans as cancer, and that is what I got. That is what killed me. Be careful what your world view is. It can feed back on you, especially if it is a negative world view. I had a seriously negative one. That is what led me into my death..." In this video, Mellen-Thomas talks about the discovery that caused his brain cancer to be miraculously healed. This video is excerpted from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VQiVQ4fa_4 Excerpt: "The Next question I asked was why would You create humanity? Why would humanity be created when they are such dark and evil beings? "And at that moment, The Light turned into a mandala, like a big, round stained glass window that was alive and I was breathed into the center of it. In that center it was like I could look into every human soul, including my own. And I could see no evil, at all. No darkness in any human that has ever lived. And that may shock you. It shocked me. But I was there in the nexus, the mandala of human souls. There was something in us all and in all of nature and all of Gaia that's incorruptible, no matter what you've ever done -- it's incorruptible. And that is that Source in you that is perfect, that is there already. And in that moment, I heard The Light say, 'Oh Beautiful Human.' It was a blessing. And in that moment, I fell in love with humanity again. And I think that's when my cancer was cured." Learn more about Mellen-Thomas Benedict: http://ndestories.org/mellen-thomas-benedict/ .......

Transcript: "He looked down at me and he said, 'you're not supposed to be here. It's not time for you to be here.' "I remember looking up at him and saying, 'but I want to be here' . . . With all my heart, I wanted to be there. I wanted to go Home. I was happy. "He took a pause and . . . you could see him thinking about something and deciding whether to say something. And with that . . . there was a picture placed in my head of a memory of my original agreement of why I had come to Earth to begin with. It was like I remembered, and I went, 'Oh, right. Right…' "One of the things that bothers me so tremendously about the metaphysical movement, in lieu of my experience and in lieu of what I was shown . . . if there is any message I can give, it's not about meditating and leaving your body and taking your Light Being out of this Earth. Indeed, not. It is about bringing The Light into this Earth. Stay here. Be an anchor. Let The Light come in through you into this world. Don't abandon this world. We need you. We need you here. We need you to be present. And we need you to be open, with an open heart . . . Everybody must be open. To bring this new age in, it is about opening your heart and letting it sing through you. It is coming! And it is a matter of all of us. Just open your heart and let It come in. Don't leave. Don't meditate and think this place is a bad place and we're going to get out of here. This is a wonderful place. And it's going to get even more wonderful. You are here to anchor The Light so It can come into this dimension and be here. ........ Anne Horn’s near-death experience occurred as a result of being strangled by her husband, who in a fit of rage, brought her to the point of death. She describes leaving her body, encountering an uncle she never met in this life on the other side, reviewing her life, being shown a vision of how “a new age of Heaven on Earth” would unfold, and being reminded that she had agreed to come to Earth to help manifest this vision. Anne also describes many things that happened to her after her near-death experience, including dealing with aftereffects such as being able to read people’s thoughts, blowing up light bulbs, affecting watches and cash registers, being aware of things happening in other dimensions, being able to communicate with some animals telepathically, and sometimes ending up in places that she didn’t intend to go in order to help someone in need. .......

Transcript: "True learning happens in the body. This is a big deal to me personally, because so much of my life was about wanting to escape the body and wanting that for other people. I also grew up hearing that when you die you get to take off that glove; you get to be free and so I thought that here [in this world] is the more negative, that there [on the other side of life] is the more positive. The understanding in this place -- as hard as it is to see and understand -- is that true learning happens within the body, because when we are in experience, in this form, there is something that evolves within us at the level of the soul that makes the body an important part of the whole. It isn’t that one is good, and one is bad. The two work together in an important way. That was very healing for me personally, to come to a better understanding." .......

Transcript: "I want to talk to you today about why we came to this Earth. These are things I learned in Heaven. So number one, why did we come here? What is our purpose? Did we come here to be tested and tried and try to prove how righteous we are to God; keep a list of commandments or things like this? Is that why we came here? No. That is not why we came here. "We came here for one thing. And that was to learn about ourselves. That's it. We came to find out who you are and how you respond to different things. "So for example one of the main things we came here for was to learn joy. We didn't know what joy was before. When we were up in heaven, we knew one thing. We knew love. That's what God was. And we learned different concepts and we learned how to do different things, but we didn't know joy and we wanted to know joy. God told us: the only way to know joy is to know sorrow. So we had to come down to this physical realm that He made, so we could learn about sorrow, so we could have joy. "So we're not down here to prove anything to God. We're not down here to earn His love. We're not down here to do certain things to make ourselves righteous in His eyes. All those things are great, all those things are awesome, but that's not why we came down here. "We came down here to experience opposition. We came down here to feel the opposite. "For example, we would never know what a great health felt like if you'd never been sick. You would never know what a wonderful day in Hawaii would be if you didn't live in a winter environment. You'd go to Hawaii in the middle of the winter and you’re going, 'Yeah, this is awesome!' And the guy on the beach that's local is like, 'What's the big deal, man? It's this way every day.' "So it's the opposition that defines us. It's the space between things that creates form. All of these things need each other. We need opposition to even know who we are. "For example, when the Lord showed me my spirit, before I came to this Earth, I saw this amazing, glorious, just breathtakingly beautiful, amazing warrior. The armament, and the clothing, and the raiment that I had on was so amazing and I was just breathtaking to behold. So I come down here and I end up being in this little, sick, weak body that spends the first seven years of its life in an oxygen tent, clinging on to life. I was skinny and even when I got married. My wife actually weighed more than I did . . . So I learned what it was like to be weak. I learned what it was like to have shame. I learned what it was like to have all these things. This opposition made me into who I am today. "Even the mistakes I've made. Even all the bad things I've done in my life. All the sins. All the terrible things. They helped form me into who I am today." ....... Ryan Rampton's YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaLwysUcBATwr3jwYufOwOw/videos .......

Excerpt: "I was immediately taken up into a wondrous loving presence of light and sound; indescribably wondrous, indescribably loving, beautiful, serene. It was just washing through my being. It was like being a drop of sea water in the ocean. Being part of the ocean, but not being the ocean. Simultaneously, all kinds of things were happening. I had a complete Life Review of my past, present, and future. I was being flooded with this light and sound of all kinds of spiritual principals. I saw the purpose and the function of every religion on the planet. I saw the spiritual purpose and orderliness of war and peace. All of the negativity that we have, has a purpose. I knew what was true of me was true of every other individual also -- that each of us is just indispensable to The Creator. Each of us is like an atom in the body of God." .......

Transcript: "[I asked my guide] 'What’s the true religion?' I immediately was inside his mind. I could see myself from his place, but also from his higher level of wisdom and experience . . . And from his place, it was as if a little kid came up and asked, 'Which kind of cheese is the moon made of? Jack, Cheddar, or Swiss?' He was really sweet about it . . . he kind of smiled at me, and it was just sweet. He wasn’t making fun of me or saying you’re such a silly little toddler. He just smiled, and I remember his head slightly bowing and this love emanating from him. To experience myself from his view, it blew everything -- my whole foundation, everything I had come from -- it just pulled it out from under me, because now I’m thinking, 'Oh, wow, the moon is not even made of cheese!' Not that I thought that, but it was like it’s not even about religion." ....... Since she was 17 years old, Amy Call suffered from chronic pain associated with fibromyalgia.

That our lives that feel so very long are infinitesimal when placed in the Whole picture… which for that matter, cannot even be framed. I was shown how every single individual through their own free will chooses paths that MATHEMATICALLY take them to the circumstances of their next existence or life. That NOTHING at all sits in accident or chaos. That every single aspect of our lives are ruled by NATURAL Laws that we placed ourSELVES in! That in a sense, we create our own worlds. I was shown how one can never assume either, that if someone lives a life of suffering that this is because of ‘evil’ deeds. Many may CHOOSE a life of suffering because of what it Awakens in them.. or to help another, etc.. We can NEVER EVER assume that we can be accurate in guessing why each Being lives the life they live. I cannot describe the relief… the refreshing, peaceful balm this Knowledge was for me. To finally gather this Truth that I’d yearned for all of my life… That all IS Good! That there IS sense and beauty all around. That no one is just ‘free-falling’ as it had seemed before! That God doesn’t just get to toy with us as He pleases with random ideas of tests, including rewards and punishments that just depend upon His current mood or mindset. While in this experience, out in the vast expanse of stars and planets, moons, and Knowledge, I Knew complete Trust for what felt like the first time. This was bliss for me.

Transcript: U.S. Senator Mark Kirk: What happened — I went downtown and was at Northwestern Memorial in the ICU, underwent three brain surgeries where the issue was brain swelling which would create such a pressure on the lower brain stem and could be fatal. My doctors said without the procedure I would have been dead within three days. I do remember waking up in the ICU not exactly knowing where I was. Probably it was a pharmacological event. I think there was a lot of that in my system. Reporter: I read in the Daily Herald today about angels. Did you feel as if there were angels there? U.S. Senator Mark Kirk: I did. I felt like there were three angels in the room. And interestingly, they had New York accents, probably because the last movie I’d seen was on Channel 11, was the original Oceans 11, the brat pack movie… They were there in the ICU. They probably have a regular gig there because of the issues. Reporter: Right. Right. And yet you said, “No, not yet…” U.S. Senator Mark Kirk: Yeah, and they said, “Mark, you want to come with us. You know you can come with us if you want.” Complete New York accent. The way they introduced themselves, they said, “Mark, uh, we’re angels; we’re angels down here.” And established that simpatico thing. “You want to come with us?” I said, “No, I’ll hold off.” .......

Howard Storm was born October 26, 1946, in Flushing, New York. He is a former art professor and chairman of the art department at the Northern Kentucky University. Before his near-death experience, Storm reports that he was not a pleasant man. He was an angry atheist that was hostile to every form of religion, as well as those who practiced it. He considered all spiritual belief systems to be fantasies created by deluded people. He knew with certainty that the material world was all that existed. He would often use rage to control the people around him and didn’t find joy in anything. On June 1, 1985, at the age of 38, Storm suffered a perforation of the stomach, which led to his death and a profound near-death experience. When he returned to this world, he was a changed man. He is best known as the author of “My Descent Into Death” which details his near-death experience. Storm’s NDE is regarded as one of the most complete accounts of distressing near-death experiences ever recorded. It includes dramatic encounters with evil spirits, a trip to hell, a rescue by Jesus, and extensive conversations with Jesus and a group of angels. Storm’s NDE has been cited frequently in near-death studies literature. His book was originally published in 2000. Storm has told his story to numerous audiences and appeared on NBC’s Today Show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, 48 Hours, Discovery Channel and Coast to Coast AM. Storm was so deeply affected by his near-death experience that he resigned from Northern Kentucky University and became a United Church of Christ minister.

Excerpt: "God held me . . . I don't remember if my whole body was in His arms or what . . . no recognition of that. I knew it was God because He was an omnipotent being. Not like a person . . . much less limited in form. I did not see God but felt Him through my skin. He spoke through all of my senses. He called me by name and told me I could not stay. I protested. I told Him all of my services on Earth -- working 24/7, not much money for my work, a good wife, a good mother. I did not want to leave this place. Then God asked me . . . He said, 'Let me ask you one question. Have you ever loved another person the way you have been loved here?' "The love I had received in there was so overpowering . . . I had never felt anything like it, so I answered God honestly. I said, 'No . . . it is impossible . . . I am just a human, you are God.' "He gave me the illusion of a sweet protective chuckle. He then said, 'Mary, you can do better.'" .......

Transcript: "I remember after my experience I had the simplest situation where two cable guys showed up at my house . . . What I discovered was the Divine having a sense of humor. Things are funny. The two cable guys show up at the house and they were wearing their uniforms for work and they were there to hook up the cable for the TV. My husband had made an appointment and he had to go to work right after my NDE. [He] was very busy taking care of the family, and so I was at home in this state with kids just trying to figure out how to function. And the cable guys show up and when I opened the door, I saw them how the Divine sees them and I couldn’t stop laughing. I was trying not to be rude but to me they looked like -- if you imagine little kids going into the closet and trying clothes on and trying to look really serious and showing up at the door and be like 'We’re the cable guys.' I can’t describe it. I was like 'Oh, OK.' I brought them in, and they were just really serious about their job like, 'We’re here to hook up the TV.' To me it was just so funny because I was so disconnected from things like watching TV, and watching football, or sitcoms . . . I just didn’t realize that this appointment was coming and while they were hooking it up, they were asking me really simple questions like 'OK, so what channel do you want? Do you want ESPN? Do you want the cartoon channel?' Everything they were asking me was busting me up. "I got to where I felt like I was being rude, because they have an important job. There’s nothing that isn’t important. Everything that people do is part of their own vital experience, and it’s all beautiful really. It’s just that it felt totally different to me. I had to actually -- I told them I’m really sorry; I think I’m sick or something. And one of the guys said, 'Did you take some NyQuil?' And I was wiping the tears and blowing my nose, and I finally said, 'You know what, you guys can hook up anything you want, because I need to leave the room.' And so, I had to leave, because I knew at some point it was going to look like I was being rude... "I saw people from then on the way we see toddlers when they’re playing. I see that despite how we age here -- we get older and we take ourselves seriously and we think, you know, I have this important thing I’m doing -- but the Divine is like: 'Lighten up. It’s OK, you can lighten up.' And I tend to be so serious from what I came from. I worry so much. I thought things were so serious, and I wanted to please God, and I prayed so much, and now through the Divine I was seeing that it’s totally OK to just have fun and laugh. I was laughing so much, I was wheezing..." ....... Since she was 17 years old, Amy Call suffered from chronic pain associated with fibromyalgia.

Transcript: "I was always really fortunate. I came from a wonderful home, had a wonderful childhood. My parents loved me desperately. And their love compared to this woman -- you can't even compare it. When she came, she stood next to me and she extended her hand outward and said, 'look there.' And when I turned my head . . . I watched every second of my life from the moment I was born until the moment I died. And it wasn't just seeing it. I lived it again exactly the way I felt it the first time but with a new sense of intellectual understanding about how I could have done it different, what might have been better. And other things that I cared little about, that I didn't think made an impression on anybody's life at all were very significant. Probably the most important was when I worked at a convalescent hospital in high school after school and I used to give a lady graham crackers and milk before I'd leave the shift. I had no idea how much I had changed her life, how grateful, how appreciative she was. I thought it was so insignificant at that time in the 11th grade, but it wasn't. It was like every spirit looking down and saying, 'Thank you for doing this. This woman had nobody. No one loved her.' " Related Excerpt: "Then, my angel showed me a second vision, a scene I'd forgotten. I now saw myself at 17, when I'd worked at a convalescent hospital after school. I had grown fond of a toothless old woman who was no longer able to speak clearly, and who never had visitors. She liked to suck on graham crackers before going to bed, but no one wanted to serve her because when she had finished, she would drool as she kissed the entire length of the arm of the person feeding her. While others avoided her, I willingly fed her the cookies she adored, seeing how happy this made her. "When that scene was replayed for me, I felt as if every loving spirit in God's kingdom was thanking me in unison. I was amazed that such an act could have meant so much to God -- and to me. I felt humbled and very honored." .......

Transcript: "The life review continued all the way down to third grade where there was a moment that I had totally forgotten -- I'm 27 at this point and this was in third grade . . . It was an instant during a break in school. I was teasing a smaller girl . . . I'm now seeing this event play out in front of me and I'm seeing her standing against the wall and I'm going like 'na nan nan nan na na' -- teasing her and calling her names . . . And she's standing against the wall crying . . . And now I'm on the receiving end, meaning I'm her! And I'm feeling . . . the pain of my hurtful actions on her; I'm feeling how it feels for her to receive my actions that are very hurtful. And not only am I feeling her sorrow and her pain, but I am also sensing and understanding how my actions are impacting her future life. I'm now seeing, sensing, and feeling that she will become much more shy and introverted for the rest of her life because of my actions. But not only do I sense and feel that, I also feel the pain and sorrow in her parents because she's now going to turn out as a more shy and inward person. So I'm really feeling the full consequences -- not just that my actions are changing the life of this little girl, but I am also feeling . . . how my actions caused ripples far away, not just in her life, but in her parents’ lives, in her whole family, also in everyone around her. So I really get a full spectrum of the full consequences -- all the links in the chain -- to . . . spending a few minutes in a schoolyard teasing a girl." .......

Transcript: "I think this is one of the most remarkable aspects of the near-death experience and one that is not really given the amount of attention that it should. Many people know about The Light, they know about the out-of-body experience. The thing that really is, I think, important about the near-death experience in regard to the life review phenomena is that it isn't just a life review. It's a reliving of your life . . . When people describe the full experience, it's every single act you have done, every single thought you have thought, every single word you have spoken -- suddenly all of this is back with you. You are running through it again and you see and you experience the effects of these acts, these thoughts, and these words on other people. Let me just give you one brief example to illustrate this. "I have a friend who when growing up was kind of a roughneck; he had a hot temper; he was always getting into scrapes. One day he was driving his truck through the suburb in the town where he lived and he almost hit a pedestrian. And he got very aggravated with the pedestrian and he was a very big physical guy -- still is -- and a fight ensued. He punched this guy out and left him unconscious on the pavement, got back into his truck, and roared off. "15 years later my friend has a near-death experience . . . and during the near-death experience, he has a life review. In his life review, this particular scene of the fight takes place again . . . And he said that, as many people do, he experienced this from a dual aspect. There was a part of him that was almost as if he were high up in a building looking out a window and seeing the fight below. But at the same time he was observing the fight like a spectator, he saw himself in the fight. Except this time, he found himself in the role of the other person. And he felt all 32 blows that he had rained on this person 15 years ago now being inflicted upon himself. He felt his teeth cracking. He felt the blood in his teeth. He felt everything that this other person must have felt at that particular time. There was a complete role reversal; an empathic life review experience. "This is the sort of thing that many people report. And when they report these kinds of experiences, they realize that in our life, we are the very people that we hurt; we are the very people that we help to feel good. We experience these actions as though done to ourselves in the life review. So when people start talking about The Golden Rule in the context of the near-death experience, The Golden Rule is not just a precept for moral conduct -- it's the way it works! And you experience this during the life review. You learn that lesson in a very forceable way as a result of going through this kind of experience. And that's why, when people have NDEs, they change as much as they do! If you can even imagine what it must be like to go through your entire life and see everything you've ever done, without judgment, but from a kind of almost omniscient point of view with regard to the effects of those actions, and you see what your actions do to other people, it's a heavy kind of lesson. It's something that stays with you, and informs your conduct for the time after your near-death experience. "So it does give us a lot to think about, and that's why I say in my book Lessons from The Light, the near-death experience isn't given just to those who have the experience, it's given to all of us to learn from, because all of us can profit from the lessons near-death experiencers learn in the course of a life review or other aspects of their experience. We can grow from these lessons. We can apply these lessons into our daily lives." Complete interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7VKk5xlBRE .......

Transcript: "Everything was so miraculous. Every moment. Every breath that's happening. Every connection we make personally is just the most beautiful, miraculous thing. If we could see what was really going on behind all of this and how much is involved in each one of us and how beautiful it really is -- the bigger picture -- we would really just be in awe all the time. I can see why maybe we need not to be in this state all the time, because I couldn't even function. I was going from laughing to crying and things like that. People could have legitimately said 'She needs to be locked up,' and I would probably have understood." ....... Since she was 17 years old, Amy Call suffered from chronic pain associated with fibromyalgia. In 2003, after suffering an allergic reaction to a medication that her doctor had prescribed, Amy felt her body go numb. Her nasal passages swelled up and she couldn’t breathe, or call out for help. A couple minutes later, the struggle was over. Amy felt herself be sucked out of the top of her head and her profound, insightful, and deeply inspiring near-death experience began. ....... Amy Call's near-death experience is one of the most fabulous NDEs ever recorded. You can listen to her full account by going here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qX803D_cofI To learn more about Amy Call, go here: https://ndestories.org/amy-call/ Amy writes: “I came to understand that most of us have lived much, MUCH longer than we could even fathom. That our lives that feel so very long are infinitesimal when placed in the Whole picture… which for that matter, cannot even be framed. I was shown how every single individual through their own free will chooses paths that MATHEMATICALLY take them to the circumstances of their next existence or life. That NOTHING at all sits in accident or chaos. That every single aspect of our lives are ruled by NATURAL Laws that we placed ourSELVES in! That in a sense, we create our own worlds. I was shown how one can never assume either, that if someone lives a life of suffering that this is because of ‘evil’ deeds. Many may CHOOSE a life of suffering because of what it Awakens in them.. or to help another, etc.. We can NEVER EVER assume that we can be accurate in guessing why each Being lives the life they live. I cannot describe the relief… the refreshing, peaceful balm this Knowledge was for me. To finally gather this Truth that I’d yearned for all of my life… That all IS Good! That there IS sense and beauty all around. That no one is just ‘free-falling’ as it had seemed before! That God doesn’t just get to toy with us as He pleases with random ideas of tests, including rewards and punishments that just depend upon His current mood or mindset. While in this experience, out in the vast expanse of stars and planets, moons, and Knowledge, I Knew complete Trust for what felt like the first time. This was bliss for me. I had lived in fear and distrust and panic for 30 consecutive years…” .......
