Experience description:
Experience:
I had a near death experience after I had been involved in a near fatal auto
accident resulting in head trauma which caused me to stop breathing
necessitating the use of a ventilator and an accompanying coma. Since coming out
of my coma, I뭭e had vivid remembrances of my Near Death Experience, the time I
was on the other side in a heavenly realm.
I remember there was a bright mist permeating everything. The light was
everywhere; it even passed through me! I can remember looking at my hand and the
light passed through it! I could see my hand was transparent, but this did not
surprise me. As I walked with this heavenly personage, His countenance shone
with such a brightness I can’t describe. I knew this heavenly personage was
Jesus, He didn’t say who He was, I just knew.
I remember walking with Him, but we weren’t walking in the physical sense. The
best way I can describe it was that we were floating a bare space above the
ground. Everything had an overall whiteness and brightness about it. You could
see the color bright green of the plants. I could see the water and a bright
glow surrounded everything. The water was so sparkling clean. I remember wanting
to bend over and take a drink from the stream that was running through this
garden we were walking through. When I tried to scoop up the water in my hands
the water ran through my hands, literally, and it wasn’t wet. Jesus stopped
walking and looked at me while I was bent over trying to drink this water. I
could feel his eyes on me. My thirst for this water, even though I wasn’t able
to put it to my lips and drink it, was gone. I can’t describe the sensation I
felt when the water was passing through my hands but I did feel something,
though. I felt this overwhelming desire to experience everything about this
garden. When this heavenly being and I talked, it wasn’t with our mouths, but I
knew that we were communicating. His countenance fairly shone, and how he felt
about me shone forth around Him. He simply exuded love and concern and caring
for me. The feeling of peace was indescribable. I was given the choice that I
could either come back to this earth and live more life or stay with Him there
in heaven. We both knew that returning to this earth would be a struggle because
I had told Him that I wanted to come back to this earth life if I could help
myself and others. He knew that I didn’t want life on this earth if life meant
being trapped in an unresponsive body unable to communicate. The look of love in
His eyes as He looked at me filled my heart with joy then, and as I write this
that feeling of joy I felt then comes back to me anew.
I don’t know how I did this, but I could see my husband there in the hospital
holding my hand and talking to my body. It was like I was in the room but I was
seeing him from a different vantage point other than through my eyes. I felt a
strong desire that I wanted to return to the earth and live more life with my
husband, if I could communicate with him and help him. The Lord understood and
heard the desires of my heart.
The next thing I remember was being trapped in my body while others cared for my
physical needs. I remember that I could tell what the nurses were thinking by
how they touched me. I knew if they thought I was going to live or not through
their touch. I knew if they thought they were caring for a basically dead person
whose spirit wasn’t there. I remember trying to scream out, "Look, I’m alive! I
am going to live!" I relaxed and trusted the person much more if I knew that
they knew I was there in my body, and that they believed I had a chance to live.
I obviously could read their thoughts.
While in this heavenly realm as a spirit, I remember communicating
telepathically. I’m frustrated when other people can’t read my thought or I
can’t read their thoughts. Speaking through my mouth is so physical, (and
difficult, I might add). The phrase this world uses, being soul mates,
(generally in romantic terms) is referring to the communication between two
souls. This may sound unbelievable to some, even mystical to those who haven’t
experienced this spirit to spirit communication. To communicate on a spiritual
level is very profound, a great blessing.
여기 확장된 버전이 있다.
경험 설명:
나는 치명적인 자동차 사고 옆에서 심각하게 부상당한 후로 임사체험을 경험했다. 이 사고로 나는 숨이 멈춰 환풍기 사용을 필요로 했고 의식불명이
동반되었다. 의식불명에서 돌아오면서 나는 천국에 있는 베일의 다른 쪽에 있었던 생생한 기억을 가지고 있다. 거기에는 모든것에 스며드는 밝은
안개가 있었다. 빛은 어느곳이나 있었다. 빛은 심지어 나를 통과해 지나가기도 했다. 나는 내 손을 바라보며 빛이 손을 통과해 지나갔던 것을
기억할 수 있따. 나는 내 손이 투명했던 것을 볼 수 있었다. 하지만 그 사실이 나를 놀래키진 않았다. 내가 이 천국의 사람과 걸을때, 그의
얼굴에서 말로 표현할 수 없는 밝기를 가진 빛을 뿜어내고 있었다. 나는 이 천국의 사람이 예수라는 것을 알고 있었다. 왜냐하면 나는 그를 아주
익숙한 친구로 인식했기 때문이다. 그는 그 사실이 필요치 않았기 때문에, 그 자신이 누구인지 밝히지 않았다. 나는 예수님과 같이 걸었던 것을
기억한다. 하지만 우리는 물리적인 감각으로 걸었던 것이 아니다. 내가 설명할 수 있는 가장 좋은 방법은 우리의 걸음은 공중에서 걷는 것이었다.
floating a bar spare above the ground of this beautiful garden we were walking
in. 정원의 모든 것이 전체적으로 하얀색이었고 밝았다. 나는 식물들의 밝은 녹색빛을 볼 수 있었다. 나는 물을 볼 수 있었고 물 주위로 밝은
빛이났고 물의 소리는 음악적인 소리였다. 이 물줄기는 노래를 했었다. 그리고 물은 눈이 부실정도로 깨끗했다. 나는 몸을 굽혀 우리가 걷고 있는
이 정원에 펼쳐진 그 시냇가에서 한모금 마시길 원했던 것을 기억한다. 내가 내 손으로 물을 뜨려고 시도했을 때, 물은 내손을 달렸다. 젖지
않았다! 예수님은 걸음을 멈추고 내가 이 물을 마시려고 숙이려할때 나를 바라보았다. 나는 나를 향한 그의 눈을 느낄 수 있었다. 이 물에 대한
나의 갈증은 내가 이것을 내 입술에 넣지 못했을 지라도 갈증은 그 순간에 사라졌다. 나는 이 물이 내 손에 흐르던 때 내가 느낀 느낌을 설명할
수가 없다. 하지만 나는 무언가를 느꼈따. 나는 이 정원의 모든 것을 경험하고픈 넘치는 열망을 느꼈다.
내가 예수님과 이야기할때 우리의 입술로 한 것이 아니었다. 하지만 우리는 의사소통을 하고 있었다는 것을 나는 알았다. 그의 얼굴은 매우 빛이
났고 how he felt about me shone forth about him. 그는 거기 서서 그냥 나를 위한 사랑과 관심과 돌봄을
발산했다. 내가 느꼈던 평화의 감정은 설명할 수 없을 정도였다! 나에게 지구로 돌아가 더 인생을 살지 아니면 그와 거기 천국에서 머물지에 대한
선택이 주어졌다. 우리 모두는 지구로 되돌아가는 것이 논쟁이 될 거라는 것을 알고 있었다. 왜냐하면 내가 그에게 만일 내가 나자신과 다른 사람을
도울 수 있다면 지구로 되돌아가고 싶다고 말했기 때문이다. 그는 만일 내 삶이 반응하지 않는 몸에 사로잡히게 되고 의사소통할 수 없게 된다면
지구에서 더 삶을 살길 원치 않는다는 것을 알고 있었다. 그의 눈에 있는 사랑의 시선이 기쁨으로 나를 채웠다. 나는 내가 느꼈던 기쁨의 감정을
기억한다. 그리고 나는 새롭게 기쁨으로 가득차있다. 나는 내가 어떻게 했는지 기억하진 않는다. 하지만 나는 내가 병원 방에서 내 손을 잡고 내게
말하는 내 남편을 바라보던 것을 기억한다. 내자신의 눈을 통한 관점으로 보지 않았따. 나는 그것이 내 몸이었다고 인식했다. 하지만 나는 몸 밖에
있었다. 위에서 내 몸을 바라보고 있었다. 내가 그 장면을 바라볼때, 나는 지구로 되돌아가 내 남편과 더 살고 싶은 강한 열망을 느꼈다. 내가
그와 대화할 수 있고 도울 수 있다면 말이다. 나는 이해했고 내 마음의 열망을 들었따. 그 다음 나는 다른 사람들이 나의 육체적인 필요를 돌보고
있을 때 내 몸에 갇히게 된 것을 기억한다. 나는 간호사들이 나를 어떻게 만질지에 대해서 무엇을 생각했는지 말할 수 있었음을 기억한다. 나는
만일 그들이 그들의 처방에 의해 내가 살게되거나 혹은 죽게되거나 된다고 생각했는지에 대해 알고 있다. 나는 그들이 돌보고 있는 사람은 기본적으로
영혼이 거기있지 않은 죽은 사람이라고 생각했던 것을 알고 있다. 나는 비명을 지르려고 노력했었다. "보세요! 나는 살아있어요! 나는 여기
있어요! 나는 살거에요!" 나는 안정되었고 그들이 돌보고 있는 것은 살아있는 사람이라고 알고 있다는 것을 나는 알게되었고 그 사람을 더욱
믿었다. 나는 분명히 그들의 생각을 읽을 수 있었다. 내 영적인 몸에 있는 동안 나는 텔레파시로 의사소통했던 것을 기억한다. 이것은 천국
정원에서 내가 예수님과 대화했던 방식이다. 매우 쉬웠다. 어떤 노력도 들지 않았다. 그냥 생각들을 생각하게 되고 그들은 대화하고 있었다. 나의
물리적인 입으로 말하는 것은 어렵고 피곤하고 때로는 오해한다. 그리고 당신이 말하려고 하는 것의 잘못된 의미를 받아들이기도 한다.
영혼 친구들이 세상이 사용하는 단어를 말하는 것은 두 영혼간에 대화하는 것을 의미한다. 영적인 수준으로 대화하는 것은 매우 뛰어난 경험이다.
나는 나의 임사체험 이후로 이 영적인 능력을 받았다고 믿는다. 그리고 이 능력은 내가 그것을 사용할때 내 인생을 크게 축복해왔다. 나는 다른
사람과 영적인 수준에서 대화하는 것에 대해 매우 큰 필요를 느낀다. 그리고 이 방식으로 내가 대화할 수 있는 유일한 길 중 하나는 적는 것이다.
나는 영적인 수준으로 대화하기 위해서는 정신적으로 나 자신을 준비해야한다. 당신은 이 일을 하기에 시간이 필요하다. 당신의 집에서 아무 방해없이
글을 적어야한다. 우리는 우리가 생각하는 그대로이다. 나는 방해하는 하찮은 생각들을 발견한다. 나는 아주 가끔 TV를 본다. 그 프로가 나에게
좋은 생각을 자극할때에만 본다. 나는 지금 다른 음악을 듣고 있다. 그리고 하늘의 것에 끌린다. 나의 임사체험은 나를 변하게 했다. 나는 정의를
열망하고 악을 혐오한다. 나는 사실상 내 사고에 매우 감사한다. 사고가 나의 신체적인 능력을 불리하고 만들어 놨을 지라도 말이다. 하지만 동시에
나의 영적인 능력이 크게 꽃을 피웠다. 내가 의식불명상태에서 깨어난 뒤로부터 나는 평화로운 희망의 태도를 가져왔다. 나는 내가 아직 살아있는
이유를 믿는다. 내가 지구에서 살기위해 돌아온 이유 중 하나는 내가 영적인 세계는 사실이고 아름답다는 것을 증거해야하기 때문이다. 그리고
예수님은 그가 그렇다고 말한 분이다. 우리의 형제다. 그리고 우리는 영적인 새계에서 친근한 형제로 알고 있다. 이 지식, 이 믿음은 내 삶의
모든 부분에 영향을 끼친다. 그리고 다른 사람과 이것을 얘기하고자하는 열망이 있다. 나는 이것을 듣게될 모든 사람에게 말하기 위해서 내가 돌아와
살고 있다고 믿는다.
질문 #27에 대한 느낌. 나는 이렇게 대답하기를 원한다. 하지만 그 질문은 내가 Copy, Paste하는 것을 못하게 해서 이곳에 적는다.
===================
나는 내가 만일 내 개인적인 재활 과정을 더 상세히 말한다면, 뇌를 부상당한 사람을 재활시키는 것을 돌보는 사람들에게 도움이 될 것이라
생각된다. 좀더 개인적인 배경 지식을 먼저 말한다. 나는 정식 간호원이다. 사실상 사고 났던 그날 나는 16살난 내 아들을 2번째 운전 시험을
위해 DMV에 데려다주던 길이었다. 그는 그 전 시험에 떨어진 후였다. 그가 그의 첫번째 운전면허증을 받을 수 있기 위함이었다. 나는 그가
우리가 사진 오래된 무스탕으로 바꿀려고 하던 DMV에서 집으로 운전하도록 했다. 그리고 그는 고등학교에 가려고 했었꼬 나는 그들 집에서 나를
기다리던 몇몇 환자를 보려고 했었다. 나는 이곳 Las Vegas의 가정 건강 센타에서 일했다. 그날 내 삶의 방향을 영원히 바꾸게 되었다.
집으로 운전하는 도중 내 아들은 4차선에 멈출 것을 생각했다. 그는 멈췄고 마을의 우리쪽 방면에서 자갈 밭에서 나온 자갈을 잔뜩 실은 트럭
앞에서 차를 몰고 나갔다. 내 아들, Clint는 트럭 앞에서 차를 멈춰야한다고 생각했다. 그 트럭이 멈출 필요가 없다고 생각하지 않았다.그
교차로는 단지 2차로 멈춤이었다. 그 트럭은 내 사고 후에 변경된 자갈 트럭 노선 위에 있었다. 몇번의 다른 사고도 정확히 같은 교차로에서
발생했다. 어쩄든 트럭은 내 새로운 체비 프리즘의(3주된) 운전석을 치었다. 내 아들 Clint는 안전띠를 하고 있지 않았고 나도 안했었다.
경찰은 우리가 만일 안전띠를 하고 있었다면 아들은 짓눌려 죽었을 거고 나는 상처없이 걸어나왔을 거라고 말했다.
그 트럭은 우리를 멈추기까지 80피트를 끌고 갔다. 나는 우리가 차 밖으로 나가야한다고 생각했다. 내 기억은 사고가 발생한 후로 완전히
깜깜해졌따. 그날 내가 가지고 있던 마지막 기억은 호스피스 간호사들을 위해 내 직장 상사랑 얘기하던 것이었다. 핸드폰으로 Clint가 내 차로
운전 시험을 보는 도중 그를 DMV에서 기다렸던 참이었다.(나는 또 호스피스를 위한 그들의 집에서와 가정 건강 간호 센터에서 몇 몇 환자들을
보았다.) 보시다시피 나는 바쁘고 생산적인 여자였다.
The truck dragged us 80 feet before it stopped, and I think we had to be cut out
of the car. My memory is totally blanked out of the accident occurring. The last
memory I have of that day was talking to my boss for Hospice nurses on my cell
phone at the DMV waiting for Clint while he took his driving test with my car. (
I also saw patients in their homes for hospice as well as for In Home health
nursing.) As you can see I was one busy , productive lady then! Clint was
knocked unconscious, suffered a pneumothorax, some cracked ribs and a broken
collar bone on his left side. he remembers coming to in the ambulance. I was
much more seriously injured, I had to be resuscitated, either at the scene, or
in route to the trauma center, where I underwent emergency surgery for a
hemothorax (bloodclot) on my brain, and abdominal exploratory surgery. My
husband was notified at work of my accident and he called my two places I worked
at that they'd have to get someone else see those patients and he informed them
of my auto accident. Nurses from both agencies showed up at the hospital and
reviewed my records and status and knew how seriously I had been injured, and
that my death was expected imminently. The Chaplain for Hospice, held a prayer
service for me at a Lutheran church and invited other nurses as well. I know
they came because a book was given to me later where the people who attended
this prayer service had signed in and wrote notes of encouragement to me. All
the members of my ward congregation were asked to fast and pray for me all on
the same day. My parents, in Utah, who were temple workers, a temple for the
Mormon church, had my name written on the prayer list of names prayed for by
those attending the temple that day for all the temples in the western United
States that day. Prayer is a tangible force, a power for good here on this
earth! Many people ask me what was the 1st thing I thought or felt when I came
out of my coma, about 3 weeks after the accident. What I felt, was the
incredible feeling of power by being thought of by many and them praying for my
recovery to God. I could feel his love and compassion for me, and I believe this
communication led to my incredible experience with Christ in that heavenly
garden. I now no longer hope that there is heaven and that Christ's life
experience and atonement are real, Now I know! Just like I know that I gave
birth to all 5 of my children and tangibly held them in my arms. My testimony of
Christ burns within me, now when I think of him, I have a visual memory of him
looking at me there in that heavenly garden. The love and concern in his eyes
for me is overwhelming if I think about it too long I feel emotionally
overwrought. Since my accident all my emotions have been on the surface, many
would think I'm emotionally immature, like a kid. I am an innocent, emotionally,
I say what I think, I'm very honest, but I've never said anything cruel or
hurtful to anyone, just my observations surprise people, and quite often they
don't quite know how to take me. My husband is very protective of me, but he is
often happily surprised how I say & do things now. He quite often says now I've
lost the cautiousness I used to have in conversations with others, he says my
naivet?is refreshing. I now pray each day for and follow the promptings of the
spirit of whom I should talk to & about what, my soul tells me who I should
speak with and whom is distracted by other things, who wouldn't listen to what I
had to say and if they have good motives. I was in a Convalescent Care Center
for about a month, that's where I came out of my coma. Then I went to a
Rehabilitation Hospital for 2 days. They had told my husband that I'd receive
physical therapy and speech therapy & occupational therapy everyday and that
these therapies would aid in my recovery but my parents had come from Utah to
see me and assist in my care, because my husband had to go to work each weekday.
So what we all came up with was that I would go home and my parents would stay
for as long as I needed their help, and that I would receive the therapies I
needed from In House Home Health, from my friends. Basically all my
rehabilitative therapies have been done in my home. From walking around my
house. exercising, walking around the block with my physical therapist from
throwing & catching a foam ball with my affected side, to carrying a weight in
my left hand while exercising. The exercises got even more complicated when the
occupational therapist starting making visits. I had lots of memory exercises
and hand eye coordination stuff to do, and in between their visits I was doing
rehabilitative stuff for myself just by doing things caring for our home,
instead of being tied in a bed peeing on myself because no one answered my call
button to untie me and take me to the bathroom. Everyone rallied around me, my
Dad would massage my sore spastic muscles each morning after I got out of a
Jacuzzi tub we have in our master bathroom, and then we'd go for a walk
together, this is during the same period of time the therapists were coming to
the house. My nephew is a Chiropractor, but he lives in Laughlin, but his
partner lives and practices here in Vegas, and so for about 3 months, I went to
his partner 3 times a week, finally graduating down to once a week. My parents
stayed for 1 month, then I was able to care for myself at home. The ladies in my
church all signed up at a Relief Society meeting for different days of the week
to go walking with me. I now have many interested friends, involved in my life,
because they had volunteered then to go walking with me. In fact, even now, when
I do too much repetitive motions with my Left hand, like typing, I get painful
muscle knots around my left shoulder blade, and my left hand starts to cramp.
Here is a sample of one of my poems. ======================== Waiting Waiting
for answers to my prayers is a movement of my heart, I am consciously abandoning
thoughts of what I thought God would say to me, and being still & waiting. I
give myself time this morning to hear God's quiet voice. I give up my
expectation of what I think he'll do, and give him a chance to do what is best
for me. In watching the sunrise and awaiting God's voice I see in the dark
morning sky a faint predawn light. A rosy glow is spreading from the horizon to
the edges of clouds. Orange gold beams of light are spreading out fan like to
touch the top branches of trees, to travel downward to bushes, to the cold, dark
earth. The darkness has fled, illuminating me, I feel the rosy glow of his love,
the warmth of his spirit with me, as I await answers to my prayer I prayed in
the predawn dimness. I am preparing myself to hear his voice as I watch the
sunrise. As I see the beams of sunlight breaking forth from the clouds, my soul
finds joy! My spiritual aptitude is growing, as I watch in thankful silence
seeing the day dawn breaking as I wait, listening for God's voice this morning.
What a beautiful way to begin a day!, Waiting. . . . This is my first poem I
wrote after coming out of my NDE to share with others. I gave this to all the
ladies at my church who had volunteered to go walking with me because I needed
assistance during my initial rehabilitation. This poem was given out on Mother's
Day 1998, I had come home from the hospital in Nov. 1997.
THANK YOU, FRIEND
I'm in a deep fog,
in a beautiful garden,
walking and talking to the Lord.
I told Jesus
I wanted to stay on this earth,
to finish my earthly probation.
I told him I believed I was strong
enough to face the adversities
and temptations that awaited me,
with his help. Jesus promised me
that I'd never be alone,
his spirit would always be with me,
strengthening me,
giving me courage..
Jesus told me he'd send help
from his servants who listen to him.
Jesus told me
that he had compassion for me,
that he loved me,
that he knew I'd come back to him,
and that he'd give me the help to do so.
Buoyed up by his promises,
and believing him,
I came back to this world.
I came out of my coma,
against all odds,
and I began to fight!
Jesus kept his promises.
I've had his spirit with me,
and all the help I need
from his servants who listen,
You! Thank you
for being the Lord's servant,
for keeping yourself open to his spirit.
I know the promises I made to the Lord,
and his promises to me will happen,
with his help. You are the Lord's strength,
his help, and he is yours.
What a beautiful friendship!
Thank you, Friend !

elder brother. I knew I was a child of God and I recognized Jesus as my elder
brother and we non-verbally remembered our past together in heaven.
Did you experience a review of past events in your life? I'm saying yes now when
before I said No, cause back then the memories of my life review was too close
to my heart to speak about. Yes, I did have a life review, Jesus and I viewed it
together, he in my thoughts and I in his. It was an amazing experience!!.
Remembering, indeed, reliving pivotal life experiences , both good and bad. And
reading, feeling Christ's sorrow or joy per my actions then as we viewed pivotal
life experiences. When 1st broaching the subject I found when I'd discuss my
life review I'd reveal intimate information about my past life I was not
comfortable sharing. Now I'm more assured, confident about sharing personal
'stuff' with strangers, even though my life review would occasionally reflect
bad on me and on significant others I was interacting with at the time that I
now feel a need to protect from outside scrutiny. During my NDE I was promised
I'd have his spirit with me the rest of my life as needed. Initially, I didn't
believe in day to day life this would come true. But it has! As a result,
nowadays, I'm less reticent to speak about my past life, my spirituality, as
I've found his spirit is always there to guide me over previously rough shoals,
ie; [sharing my life review with tactful circumspection. Now I feel I can be
circumspect in my online responses, so I say "Yes," (confidently) "I had a life
review," Now, I know with an assurity, he's protecting me from the unscrupulous.
I know I'm still naive, an innocent, and hopefully always will be. But I feel
assured His Spirit will guide me by prompting me whom to talk to and about what.

dimensions? Yes
Describe: a heavenly garden, with a singing stream running through it

was floating above my hospital bed looking at my body in the bed and my husband
talking to my body
Did you have a sense of knowing special knowledge, universal order and/or
purpose? Uncertain

Has the experience affected your relationships? Daily life? Religious practices
etc.? Career choices? I am known as the resident poet of my congregation, and
I've become a better Sunday School teacher of kids and adults, and I'm called
upon often to speak or teach. Which is surprising to me because I'm easily
misunderstood because I have slurred speech and double vision as a result of my
head injury. Of course, in church I taught 8 yrs olds before my NDE and I still
do. But now I'm a phenomenal teacher ,if I do say so myself, even with my
slurred speech. This is because I work harder and spend A LOT of time preparing
for teaching in church, etc. Which means; "I strive to be the Lord's instrument
in all that I do, by being open to promptings from heaven" " I feel since my NDE
I have had a special conduit for help from above"
Have you shared this experience with others? Yes
What emotions did you experience following your experience? I feel an
overwhelming feeling a love and compassion from Jesus and if I remember too much
in one fell swoop I'm emotionally overcome
What was the best and worst part of your experience? Looking into Jesus' face
and reading his thoughts about me as we together viewed the life I'd lived. the
worst part was; reading the negative thoughts of the nurses who cared for me
when I was comatose about my chances of survival.
Is there anything else you would like to add concerning the experience? yes,
I'll send you another E-mail that explains where I am now
Has your life changed specifically as a result of your experience? Yes
