EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:
I sustained a major brain injury, broken back and rib cage, this was
a bicycle/moving van accident, I came to in the ambulance, and some later time
in the emergency room I passed out, what actually happened was my lungs
collapsed and I stopped breathing.
After awakening in the
hospital, three days later, I was groggy, not knowing where I was or what
happened. After a while I started to pieced together what happened. I could
remember bicycling, waking up in the ambulance, then going blank.
What I remembered next
was moving down a "hallway" but not really a hallway and going by "scenes with
remembrance" and thinking I remember that, and I should go in there, but I
didn't. There were many of these "scenes", one after another, but I did not go
into them, as I was coerced to keep going.
I came to the end of
this "hallway" it opened up to an infinitely large space. In this space, there
were an infinite amount of from what I could describe would be souls
communicating with each other simultaneously. I was in awe at the magnitude of
thoughts being communicated between these souls. I could focus in on one area
and pick out the "conversation". What I really mean was that thoughts wee being
directly spread between these souls, no words were spoken. Also I did not see
anything, no light or darkness. I could just sense these communications and I
was overwhelmed, not by fear but by joy. Then I was forced, how I don't know, to
turn back, and traveled back down the "hallway" past the same scenes I came in
with. I remember that I really wanted to go into this one scene to greet them,
but I was forced on and the hallway faded out and that was the end.
And I don't remember who those entities were.
