Experience Description

I experienced death attacking me several times in a form of a tidal wave while I was resting in the beach. The wave could hit the beach several times but once it was about to cover my head it subsided. Then came the biggest wave I had ever seen. Now it was covering me with some mysterious creatures floating on top laughing. Once it was about to cover and sweep me away an amazing bright light appeared and I heard a voice, 'Your life has changed together with your destiny.' From there I saw my uncle who was dead and an angel, they were extraordinary happy. One of them said to me 'You stay in that world.' Then they hugged one another and disappeared. From there I saw myself dancing with the angels in the skies. I could see my dead body behind taken to the morgue, postmortem being done, funeral arrangement, my burial until that evening when I regained my consciousness and discovered that I was not dead.

It took over two weeks.
