And the NDE saga continues…

By Kevin Williams

Near-death experiencers unanimously report losing their fear of death upon return. Many actually look forward to their own death, a time when they can return to the beautiful realm they experienced. The NDE changes people’s ideas of death forever. This is true even for many people who only read about the NDE. Some experiencers were not even aware they died at the time of their NDE. This demonstrates how insignificant death is really is. It reveals that death is only a very brief transition from the physical to the spiritual – like walking through a door. It has also been described by some experiencers to be similar to the process of waking up from a dream the dream being the physical world.

 

1. Introduction

  One unanimous aspect involving people who have NDEs is that they know absolutely there is life after death. They no longer believe in an afterlife. They know there is an afterlife. The idea that near-death accounts provide this knowledge has nothing to do with faith. Faith implies the possibility of doubt. Knowledge implies certainty. NDEs are based on solid knowledge and facts – not faith. If a million astronauts go to Mars and return to Earth saying that there’s Martians living there, it is then that I would know for sure that there’s Martians living on Mars. In the same way, millions of people have returned from death saying that there is life after death. Can millions of people experiencing the same thing all be wrong? Isn’t it easier to believe they are right? For this reason, the only rational conclusion is that there is life after death. Faith and skepticism then becomes irrational.

 

2. When is Death Really Death?   The term “near-death” is a misnomer because the evidence suggests that people actually journey beyond death during near-death experiences. Philosophically, to say that such experiences are “near-death” is like saying a woman is “near-pregnant.” Either a woman is pregnant or they are not. Philosophically, it would seem that a person is either dead or they aren’t.

The medical definition of “death” has been debated for centuries depending on the culture, social conditions, and the role of the medical profession. The newest definition (i.e., “brain death”) may not yet be adequate for encompassing all of death’s meanings. There is no consensus within the scientific community concerning when conscious life begins. In the same way, there is no consensus within the scientific community concerning when physical life ends. Determining the precise time of death is, in fact, medically and scientifically impossible according to cardiologist Dr. Michael Sabom who states, It used to be thought that the point of death was a single moment in time. But it is now thought that death is a process, not a single moment.

But because doctors need something to go by, they have come up with various legal and social definitions over the years for the sake of finality. Here are the terms we’re most familiar with:

 

3. The Classifications of Death

The Classifications of Death a. Heart-Lung Failure: This was the traditional definition of death until advances in medical technology made it possible for people to survive this condition. b. Clinical Death: The patient’s breathing and heartbeat stops but they might still be able to be resuscitated with CPR or other means, depending on why the vital signs ceased and under what conditions it occurred c. Lower brain death: The brain stem controlling the automatic functions of the body stops working. The length of time which the brain stem must be inactive before a person is declared legally dead varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Complicating the issue, the same person can be considered legally dead if about to become an organ donor, but legally alive if not. d. Higher Brain Death: The brain stem still functions, keeping the heart, lungs and digestive system working, but the sensing, thinking part of the brain has shut down. When such a “person” is dead, the body might still be functioning. But for all practical intents and purposes, there is no ethical reason to keep the body alive. e. Whole Brain Death: Both lower and higher brain functions have ceased. This definition was first developed by the ad hoc committee at Harvard Medical School in 1968. In 1980, hospitals were permitted to begin using it as a determination of death in patients. But even though a person might suffer from whole brain death, they can still have a heartbeat which only ends due to the failure of the lungs. If the lungs are forced to keep breathing, such people can continue to digest food, excrete waste, and even bear children. Whether or not such people are “dead” is currently up for political debate. f. Biological Death: This is when permanent cellular damage occurs to the brain due to a lack of oxygen. By definition, this process is irreversible and final. By definition only, nobody has ever returned to life from this condition. g. Metaphysical Death: This occurs when the silver cord breaks during a NDE. The silver cord is the “umbilical” which connects the physical body to the spirit body. Once this cord is broken, returning to the physical body is impossible.

Whichever definition science ultimately agrees on will influence how people are treated in hospitals, how people get organs for transplant, whether women have abortions, and when doctors perform stem-cell research – not to mention the implications within religious, philosophical and metaphysical circles.

 

4. Perhaps the Best Case of a Person Surviving Death

Pam Reynolds met all the criteria for surviving whole brain death. While in this state, she experienced an extraordinary NDE. Because her death was not final, it cannot be said that she survived “biological” death. However, her case provides an excellent example of how there is nothing “near” about the so-called “near-death” experience.Pam’s extraordinary NDE occurred while undergoing a rare surgical procedure to remove a brain aneurysm. The procedure required her to be:

a. Put unconscious using an anesthetic. b. Her body temperature lowered to 60 degrees. c. Her heart and breathing stopped. d. Her brain waves allowed to flatten e. The blood drained from her head.

While in this condition, she floated out of her body and watched the doctors operate on her lifeless body. Later, she was able to describe the surgical instruments, the conversation, and the procedures performed during her surgery.

 

5. NDEs are not Exactly Identical but Common Elements can be Found

Some skeptics claim NDEs are not real real afterlife experiences because they are not identical. On the other hand, other skeptics claim NDEs are not real afterlife experiences because they are “hard-wired” in the brain which explains the similarities. Which is true? In my opinion, neither. Here is why:

a. No Experience on Earth is Exactly Identical:Think of the near-death experience as you would any Earth experience. Everyone’s perspective is unique from everyone else. Yet, there are similarities to Earthly experiences. People go to work, go to school, live in homes, have sex, eat, sleep, practice religion, travel, visit family and friends, etc. Despite these similarities, no two Earth experiences are identical. b. No Near-Death Experience is Exactly Identical:Some people travel back in time, meet a worshipped religious figure, travel the universe, view their past lives, meet future children, etc. Everyone has a unique perspective. Yet, common aspects can be found in NDEs. (Kevin Williams)

 

6. Common Aspects Found in NDEs

Within a number of NDEs a pattern becomes evident. This pattern can be found in children’s NDEs as well. The pattern (and any single experience) includes one or more of these things:

a. Feeling that the “self” has left the body and is hovering overhead. Sometimes a “silver cord” is seen connected to the body. Sometimes the person may later be able to describe who was where and what happened, sometimes in detail. Some people who were born blind can see while out of their body. b. Moving through a dark space or tunnel and having a sense of timelessness. Sometimes the Earth can be seen from outer space. c. Experiencing intensely powerful emotions, ranging from bliss to terror. Sometimes heavenly music is heard. d. Encountering a light. It is usually described as golden, or white, and as being magnetic and loving; occasionally it is perceived as a reflection of the fires of hell. e. Receiving some variant of the message, “It is not yet your time” from a heavenly being by means of mental telepathy. f. Meeting others; may be deceased loved ones, recognized from life or not; sacred beings; pets; guides; angels; orbs; unidentified entities and/or “Beings of Light“; sometimes symbols from one’s own or other religious traditions. g. A life review, seeing and re-experiencing major and trivial events of one’s life, sometimes from the perspective of the other people involved, and coming to some conclusion about the adequacy of that life and what changes are needed. h. Having a sense of understanding everything, of knowing how the universe works. i. Reaching a boundary – a cliff, fence, water, some kind of barrier that may not be crossed if one is to return to life. j. In some cases, entering a city or library or receiving station. k. Rarely, receiving previously unknown information about one’s life – i.e., adoption or hidden parentage, deceased siblings. Some bring back scientific discoveries. Some bring back knowledge concerning the future. Some bring back knowledge of past lives. Some bring back information concerning astrology. l. Decision to return may be voluntary or involuntary. If voluntary, it usually associated with unfinished responsibilities. m. Returning to life and to the body. Afterward, an increase in spirituality may be found. Often, dramatic changes within the person are discovered. n. Some interesting facts concerning NDEs are: A group of people can die together and share the same NDE. Some NDEs have occurred when the brain is verified to be dead. NDEs have been occurring for thousands of years. They happen to people of all backgrounds (see below). o. Most near-death experiences are pleasant, but others are deeply frightening. For additional information about frightening near-death experiences, contact IANDS (International Association for Near-Death Studies) for a special publication.

8. NDE Researchers’ Comment on the Near-Death Experience

“One of the near-death experience truths is that each person integrates their near-death experience into their own pre-existing belief system.” (Jody Long)

“There are so many different descriptions of NDEs because there are so many different perceptions, perspectives, beliefs, biases, backgrounds, and afterlife realms to fit them.” (Kevin Williams)

“Childhood NDEs are similar to adult NDEs.” (P.M.H. Atwater)

People born blind have NDEs which are similar to sighted people. However, people born blind see for the first time in their lives during their NDEs. But they do not retain their sight when they return to their bodies. (Dr. Kenneth Ring)

“Our life on Earth can be thought of as one channel on a radio. At death, it is as if someone spins the dial on the radio to a different channel. The previous channel is still there, but we are now experiencing a different channel. That is all death is – a change to another channel. We go to that particular channel where our speed of vibration fits a particular channel on the radio dial.” (P.M.H. Atwater)

“There exists a point of no return during the NDE and once this barrier is crossed, returning to our body is impossible.” (Dr. Kenneth Ring)

“All physical and mental handicaps are corrected immediately after death.” (Dr. Kenneth Ring)

Something about Near-Death Experience and life:

By Kevin Williams

The hard reality we face is that the ultimate goal in life is death. Death seems like a cruel absurdity that happens to us after enjoying the time of our lives. As it is with death, life is also a great mystery. The mystery of life offers many questions. Who are we? Where did we come from? Have we lived before? Why are we here? Where are we going? Does life continue after death? Is there a God? These are profound questions that demand an answer. Fortunately, there are answers to these questions and they come from near-death experiencers. In this article you will learn many insights from them including: Life is what people worship as God. All life is a manifestation of God. For us to benefit from life, we must rediscover our oneness with God here in the physical realm. There are many realms to life and this physical realm is only one of them. Life is a mission from God we chose to fulfill. Life is a great World-School where we come to learn the many lessons of love. Everything in life runs according to a perfect and divine plan. Life is an enormous cycle of improvements where we progress at our own rate to reach the light.

 

1. Life is a School of Higher Education

  “The reason we are here in this physical world is for soul growth. This physical world is the ideal place for this. Spiritual growth in the spirit realms is more difficult. The reason is that the influence of our physical bodies gives us the opportunity for a full range of love (a child’s love, marital love, and parental love) which is ideally available here. Love that is misused or misdirected is best corrected in the here. In this physical world, there is the full range of physical and spiritual senses with which to act and communicate.” (Nora Spurgin)

  “Our behavior on Earth provides a teaching ground for those in the spirit world.” (Betty Bethards)

  “Life in this world exists for us to test our ideals and learn from them. Learning our lessons here in the physical world is the fastest way to learn.” (David Oakford)

  “As long as we have life here, we are learning, our spirits are growing, and we are coming closer to the divine, even by the things we suffer. We may not always know what to do in our lives, we may be troubled and in pain, but be assured, as long as we are here, we are growing.” (Betty Eadie)

  “Life in this world is the ultimate experience for our souls. It is ultimate because our souls evolve faster here than anywhere else. The lessons we need to learn are difficult to learn without having a physical form.” (David Oakford)

  “Trouble is nature’s way of teaching lessons that won’t be learned otherwise. If we learn from the troubles of others, we can avoid most of our own.” (Arthur Yensen)

  “Life in this world is a place for us to overcome certain weaknesses by applying ourselves to see that those weaknesses are truly overcome. Here we can learn for certain whether we have really changed.” (Edgar Cayce)

  “Life is a boot camp and school for our soul’s spiritual education, and as such, it’s tough.” (Karen Brannon)

  “This world is only a temporary place for our schooling. Our true permanent home is the spiritual universe.” (Betty Eadie)

  “This world is only one realm of learning; there are many.” (Sandra Rogers)

 

2. Life is a Test After Which We Grade Ourselves

  “When we die, we will realize that we have been living behind a veil our whole lives. The veil will be lifted and the floodlights will shine on us. Everything in life is really veiled spirit. We are literally on display our whole lives. Every thought, word, and deed has been recorded since birth and will be fully exposed. Everything we have ever done in secret will be brought out into the light for review in front of God and all the heavenly hosts. Our entire life is one huge test and we will be graded on everything.” (Daniel Rosenblit)

  “Life is a test. If you pass the test you’ll look back upon them as good experiences.” (Peace Pilgrim)

  “None of us will fully fathom the great truths of life until we finally unite with eternity at death. But occasionally we get glimpses of the answer here in the world and that alone can be enough.” (Dr. George Rodonaia)

  “The highest spiritual values of life can come from the study of death.” (Elisabeth Kubler-Ross)

4. Life was Planned by Us Before Our Birth

  “The universe runs according to a perfect plan. All the so-called injustices we see in life really has no meaning. The perfect plan is working itself out in its perfection.” (Jayne Smith)

  “Life in this world is like a rigged roulette wheel in a casino. As much as we try, we can never be able to fully satisfy our selfish desires. It’s virtually impossible.” (Daniel Rosenblit)

  “Nothing in life or death is an accident.” (Lynnclaire Dennis)

  “There are no accidents in the universe. Everything that happens in life has a purpose.” (George Anderson)

  “From the vantage point of the spirit world, there is no problem or disharmony on Earth that will not be corrected.” (Margaret Tweddell)

 

5. Life is About Giving and Helping Others

  “Life is about people, not pursuits.” (Laurelynn Martin)

  “The most important thing in life is love.” (Dr. Raymond Moody)

  “Anyone who has had such an experience of God, who has felt such a profound sense of connection with reality, knows that there is only one truly significant work to do in life, and that is love; to love nature, to love people, to love animals, to love creation itself, just because it is.” (Dr. George Rodonaia)

  “A life of piety without a life of love (which occurs only in this world) is not a spiritual life. Rather, it is a life of love, a life of behaving honestly and fairly in every task, from a more inward source that leads to a heavenly life. Such a life is not hard.” (Emanuel Swedenborg)

  “We are to leave the world a little better than we found it.” (David Oakford)

  “If we learn to give what we have, we will receive more. This is a spiritual law. We will be given all that we are prepared to receive.” (Betty Eadie)

  “The gift of life God gives us comes with a catch: We are to give the gift back.” (P.M.H. Atwater)

 

6. Life is About Receiving From God

  “Half the gain in coming into Earth life is merely showing up.” (Edgar Cayce)

  “One little girl summed up what she learned from her NDE as: ‘Life is for living and the light is for later.'” (Dr. Melvin Morse’s research)

  “The point is to live the questions now, and perhaps without knowing it, someday we will live into the answers. Live the questions and the universe will open up its eyes to you.” (Dr. George Rodonaia)

  “All the suffering in our lives is actually for our good. Out of the most tragic of circumstances springs human growth.” (Angie Fenimore)

  “God never gives us more challenges in life than we can handle. Rather than jeopardize our spiritual progression or cause more suffering than can be endured, God will bring us home where we can continue progressing.” (RaNelle Wallace)

  “Life’s supposed to be hard. We can’t skip over the hard parts. We must earn what we receive.” (Angie Fenimore)

  “Our ability to accept truth, to live by it, governs our progress in the spirit, and it determines the degree of light we possess.” (RaNelle Wallace)

 

7. Life is For Living

  “Our missions mainly have to do with love, but the purpose of life is also to experience joy, gain spiritual understanding and self-awareness, play with the joyful abandon of a child, absorb ourselves in the delight of each moment, let go of obligation and duty, and live for the pure joy of being.” (Jan Price)

  “We are sent here to live life fully, to live it abundantly, to find joy in our own creations … to use our free will to expand and magnify our lives.” (Betty Eadie)

  “Life is a joyful game to be played and everything works out perfectly. Sooner, if played joyfully with love. Later, if not.” (Dee Rohe)

  “We mustn’t wait to find our heaven in the clouds. We must find it here because it exists here and will be whatever we make it and whatever we are willing to accept of it.” (Tina)

 

8. Life is About Preparing For Death

  “How we lived our lives in this world determines which afterlife realm we have earned and travel to after death.” (Betty Bethards)

  “If we develop along the lines of unselfish love while in this world, we make it better for us when we die. It’s what we are that counts!” (Arthur Yensen)

  “Our lives in this world is a preparation for a fuller, freer and richer spirit world. It can be compared to life in the womb being a preparation for a fuller, freer and richer existence in the physical world.” (Nora Spurgin)

  “Day by day we are building for eternity. Every gentle word, every generous thought, every unselfish deed will become a pillar of eternal beauty in the life to come. (Rebecca Springer)

  “Our lives matter and is significant in determining how far we can go into the light.” (Grace Bubulka)

  “The general rule of thumb is this: hellish life, hellish afterlife – heavenly life, heavenly afterlife. Death will not change a hellish life into a heavenly afterlife, nor does it change a heavenly life into a hellish afterlife.” (Dr. Melvin Morse)

  “If we educate ourselves as much as possible about the spirit world, it makes our transition there even better. Even if we gain the smallest impression that there is life after death, we are able to obtain enlightenment and understanding. (Nora Spurgin)

  “We are preparing for death throughout our whole lives.” (Edgar Cayce)

  “Life in this world corresponds to our external nature handling external resources. Life in the spirit world corresponds to our internal nature handling spiritual resources.” (Nora Spurgin)

  “It is best to kick our bad habits while in the world. It is easier while in physical form to break those shackles than it is to undo them on the other side, where no temptations are put in our way. There is no reward for behaving correctly while in spirit, because there is nothing to tempt us otherwise. The hard school is in the physical one, and it is here that we must meet and overcome the temptations.” (Ruth Montgomery)

  “Our quality of life in the spirit world is directly affected our heart and activities in the physical world.” (Nora Spurgin)

 

9. Life is a Cycle by Which We Progress

  “Life is an endless cycle of improvements and humans are not perfect yet.” (Dr. Frank Oski)

  “Any habit-forming pleasure, and they are endless, traps us into the cycle of rebirth over and over, until our appetites are finally put aside while we are in the flesh.” (Ruth Montgomery)

  “Everyone who passes through this world must learn their final lessons in this world, where our free will is called into play in a fashion different from existence in other realms of reality.” (Edgar Cayce)

  “We progress at our own rate to reach the light. If we do things that take us away from the light, then we are perpetuating our time here.” (Amber Wells)

 

10. Life is God

  “Life is love is God. If you add anymore to this definition then you are not making it any better.” (Chuck Griswold)

  “In each atom, in each corpuscle, is life. Life is what you worship as God … and earth is only an atom in the universe of worlds.” (Edgar Cayce)

  “To know that life is God, is to know how very special life is. We must be very careful how we treat things in life because how we treat things in life is how we treat God. Do we destroy life or do we respect it? Do we nurture life or do we abuse it? Do we value life or do we take it for granted?” (Elsie Seachrist)

  “Life tries out different shapes and then returns to where it came.” (John Star)

  “Creation is about absolutely Pure Consciousness coming into the experience of life.” (Mellen-Thomas Benedict)

  “Life is light itself.” (Dr. John Jay Harper)

  God is life. (1 John 5:20)

 

11. Life is About Us

  “The solar system we live in is our larger, local body. We are much bigger than we imagine. The world is this great created being and we are the part of it that knows that it is.” (Mellen-Thomas Benedict)

  “The Earth, the sun, the moon, the darkness, the light, the planets, and all forms of life plants, rocks, animals, people are interconnected.” (Josiane Antonette)

  “The universe is God’s dream. Humans are already legendary throughout the cosmos of consciousness. One of the things that we are legendary for is dreaming. We are legendary dreamers. In fact, the whole cosmos has been looking for the meaning of life, the meaning of it all. And it was the little dreamer who came up with the best answer ever. We dreamed it up.” (Mellen-Thomas Benedict)

  “Our physical bodies have been alive forever. They come from an unending stream of life, going back to the Big Bang and beyond.” (Mellen-Thomas Benedict)

  “In conclusion, life (existence) is many things: a river, a test, a challenge, a pilgrimage, a journey, a mission, a world of fun, a school, a transition, a preparation, a shelter, and a lesson, just to name a few. But life, in all its entirety, really is all of it. Life is God.” (Kevin Williams)

 

“In each atom, in each corpuscle, is life. Life is what you worship as God … and Earth is only an atom in the universe of worlds“ – Edgar Cayce
