Experience Description

I had a car accident and was pronounced 'dead'.

I remember feeling comfortable. I also remember the fact that I was 'coming back' and that I had certain obligations towards myself. I had to clean up my act, so to speak. I was experimenting with alcohol and cigarettes. I knew that I had to stop taking these substances into my body as it affected the connection that I had with the universe.

I had always been 'aware' of things that most people weren't. When I was a child an older lady would 'come and get me' and show me things. I saw 'televisions with pictures that could be controlled by an operator' -- I know these to be computers now. I met with 'beings' that looked a lot like the drawings that I have seen of 'aliens'. I have had an uncanny sense of the 'departed' and can sum up a person within minutes of meeting with them. I can sense their pain and fear levels. I can unravel their minds for them, in a short conversation. These skills became 'more' after my experience.

The future, so to speak, was shown to me. I saw faces of people that would be instrumental in my life, but that I had not met yet. My life now, seems to be some sort of slow motion replay of the events of that afternoon in 1983.

The worst was the weeks afterwards when my body recovered from the shock. My body took a shaking up to be honest, and it took it a while to recover.

Only recently, say in the last eight to ten years, have people began to understand the universal oneness connection that we all share.

At any time in your life, has anything ever reproduced any part of the experience? Yes Meditation.
