Experience Description

I was three years old. I was sitting in the back seat of my dad's car and he was driving down the road. I was just sitting there, minding my own business when these hands pulled my soul out of my body. I was high in the sky and Jesus was there next to me. Suddenly I heard this very deep, pulsating vibration, it was spooky, but somehow I sensed that God was somewhere out there. I told Jesus I didn't want to stay and talk, I needed to find the source of the vibration. Jesus wouldn't let me go and explore. Instead, He was telling me things. He said that the next several years of my life would be horrible. He was preparing me for what was coming up. He gave me advice. I don't remember anything He said, except pretty much that life would be Hell.

My parents belonged to a cult and were also Mormon. I was tortured and abused beyond belief, and developed seizures. I was sitting in church with my mom, grandma and sisters and my eldest sister began kicking me. I felt intense anger and then had a seizure. My body flopped around on the chair and fell to the floor. My grandma and mother were embarrassed, thinking I was acting up. Suddenly, I found myself in a dark place and two beings of very white light, one male; one female came and held me in their arms. It was the first time in my life I had ever experienced love. They held me for a very long time. They told me that God is love, something I had no knowledge of. I feel like they were my true parents, my spiritual parents. I was so confused, what is this love, who is this God you are talking about. I didn't want to come back, they told me I had too. This experience was so special to me; it helped me throughout my life.

My uncle was a sadist and tortured me, many times to the point of death. Once, the fear and pain were so intense and I went into the most beautiful realm of shapes and colors. It was unbelievable. I know that when children are being tortured, God is there with them. He takes their souls out of their bodies and takes them into the most beautiful realms anyone could imagine. God does not abandon abused and murdered children. He gives them more love than anyone would ever believe. The child only is allowed to feel a little bit of terror and then God embraces them and takes them to absolute beauty. Children are God's masterpiece. I think He loves them the most.

Have your relationships changed specifically because of your experience? Yes Lately I feel disconnected from people. I am in a state of shock about all the abuse. Feel like walking away from the world and saying, CRAP. People treat each other like crap. Do lots of spiritual praying for children of this planet. Also, I pray for countries like Africa. I am kind of an outcast. Belief that God is love is my strength.

After the NDE:

Was the experience difficult to express in words? Yes The absolute love given to me.

Do you have any psychic, non-ordinary or other special gifts after your experience that you did not have before the experience? Yes I could feel other people's feelings. It hurt. It was too scary, so I shut down my emotions. If I had had one loving emotionally healthy person in my childhood, I would probably have been able to help people with specific emotions that created pain in them. Emotional healing is the hardest thing for humans to experience. I believe that healing emotions brings us closer to God. Most religions don't even address deep pain, emotional wounds, and how to process them. I think religion needs to do this, without labeling a person a weirdo for having emotionally painful stuff. I think people use religion as a Band-Aid for pain. I want the pain removed, I don't want Band-Aids.

Are there one or several parts of your experience that are especially meaningful or significant to you? The most meaningful was the two beings of light holding me and giving me love. That created this lifelong pursuit to learn about love.

Have you ever shared this experience with others? Yes I shared it during the past couple of years. No one thinks it's a big deal.

Did you have any knowledge of near death experience (NDE) prior to your experience? No

What did you believe about the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it happened? Experience was definitely real I began to believe that God is love, even though I never saw any in the people who raised me. I began to believe that God was not punishing, but then the abuse got so bad that I began to believe in punishment, and that God would punish me, just like the others were.

What do you believe about the reality of your experience now? Experience was definitely real On an emotional and psychological level, my life was hell. These experiences help give me hope that what I struggle with isn't in vain.

At any time in your life, has anything ever reproduced any part of the experience? No
