“A voice said to me, ‘The love you give and the love you receive are yours for all eternity; you only answer for your incompletions – all the things not said or done.’ What I had seen made sense; I saw all my incompletions. Why hadn’t someone told me? I could have done it differently.” …

“At this moment, I heard a voice behind me and turned. There, standing… were two friends of mine who had been killed in a car wreck in 1983. They had been together when they were killed (as was fitting since they were always inseparable) and the three of us were closer than brother and sister. …

“Then in a distance, I saw a figure coming towards me. He stood upright like a man, yet had some sort of electrical energy around him… I knew that he was God.” Music from this episode included: Wide as Eternity The Void Woven Light

Today we share three experiences—those of Kandy and Sheila, and also the fascinating experience of Diane, one of our listeners. And just to reassure everyone, while there will be a few more episodes with background music (they were already recorded and scheduled before I got the first feedback about the music), I will NOT be …

The background music is still in its experimental stage, so let me know if it’s distracting, annoying, or too loud. It’s more work putting it in, so if it doesn’t matter either way to listeners, I’ll probably not keep doing it. Basically, let me know if you like having the musical background. The background music …

“While in His presence, I felt that the knowledge of the universe was all mine. All, questions were answered and made complete sense. We communicated freely, not with words, but clearly and more concise than any conversation I have ever had. I had no worries of this world.” Music from this episode (by Chas Hathaway):  …

From a listener comment, we have today’s discussion on some of the lesser-discussed aspects found in near-death experience research, including Thomas’ past-life regression experience. Thomas had several experiences, and I want to personally thank him for sharing them with us. We also kick off the podcast with a short NDE by Sandy from NDERF.org

Today we get the awesome opportunity to share the experience of one of our listeners, Jim Bruton, who had a remarkable and unique near-death experience that is quite different than many of the traditional NDEs. Jim’s website is http://www.inbetweenproductions.com, where you’ll find the imagery Jim refers to in his experience.

Five-year-old Mark was being tended by his grandfather, who stepped out of the room for only a few minutes, when Mark discovered a bottle of “Smarties” on his Grandfather’s desk. Unable to resist the heart medication that looked so much like candy, Mark downed the bottle. By the time he discovered that they tasted nothing …

“When I exited the other end of the tunnel, I was standing in a grassy field that had low gently rolling hills. There were a few large oak trees and flowering bushes. I realized I was standing on a narrow sandy path and started walking along it.”

“I later accounted to my husband what had happened to me and asked him to tell me his side of the story. I told him at times I was not in my body. He believed that had he not been there calling my name they would have lost me.”

From two listeners we get two FANTASTIC questions today: One about apocalyptic futures seen in people’s near-death experiences, and one about whether we get to be with our pets again in the afterlife. Thanks to Wendy and Delon for today’s topics! Referenced in this podcast is Erika McKenzie’s NDE.

“As I was getting ready to ask him another question, I looked up and saw my nephew floating above the others. He was not on the right or left – he was just floating around. I asked him, ‘Richard what are you doing up there?’ “He answered, ‘It was not my time. I have to …

“I am a comical person by nature so everyone was laughing, and (they) said I kept them all laughing up there [in heaven]! Anyway, I asked jokingly,  ‘What’s in it for me? Will I be in awful pain?’ “He said, ‘Pain, yes. But you’ll have help with it.'”

“I could feel my spirit come out of my body and I saw my body lying there as if asleep. I was carried as if my angels, though I did not see them, far up into the heavens and at a great speed. I was taken to a place surrounded by music. It was like …

Earl was in a car accident, and John had a life-threatening asthma attack. Both died, and though their stories differ, both offer the joyful, beautiful news of the afterlife.

Today we share the experience of an accountant and a man named Paul. Both see remarkable things and return to tell the story.

“I felt like I was in a tunnel, and at the top was a light. I felt like I was flying through the tunnel at incredible speed but as I was going through I could sense all the things I had done through my life and all the people I had known and loved…”

“I immediately rose to my feet, and looked at the nurse who had helped me up. She wasn’t a nurse. She was clothed in light, extraordinarily beautiful, and loving. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, and I almost cry when I think about it.” We also share a sample from Kim …

“At some point, a being came along and took me on a tour of the universe. I had instilled in me, creation and how the galaxies were created. I got to visit places that were advanced beyond comprehension, and yet see places that are just starting out!”

I opened my eyes and standing at the end of my bed was the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen. He reached out His hand toward me and smiled and said, “Do you want to come with me now or do you want to stay?”

“After a few moments, I blacked out. The next thing I knew I was watching a kind of movie of my life. Not a whole life story as some people experience but only some great and happy childhood memories. I don’t know how long this lasted but after this I was in a tunnel and …

“There were four judges on four separate, tall benches—they were in grey robes with hoods and I couldn’t see their faces, but they were all writing. In front of them was a low courtroom bar and I immediately knew that if I crossed it, I would never be coming back.”

“We went up very fast and in the blink of and eye we were in this wonderous place of bright-colored landscapes. There were beautiful plants and grass. All of this was alive, like they were conscious plants. (That’s the only way I can describe it.) It was a place full of joy that even the …

“I’m not afraid of death or dying. I don’t even care how I die. I have a promise made to me by the Creator, the moment my mission in this existence is over, I will leave immediately and I don’t care how I go out. I just want to go home.” — William

“My presence fills the room. And now I feel my presence in every room in the hospital. Even the tiniest space in the hospital is filled with this presence that is me.
