Descrierea experienței
Age 2: Was hit on forehead by large piece of furniture (radio, four feet tall, with large glass dial). I had pulled it down on myself trying to climb it. I went out of body, saw myself, my mother, and the emergency man in dark uniform and cap working on me. Saw brilliant light, intense gorgeous colors, and indescribable music. Went back into body.
Age eight: During the night while ill with scarlet fever, 'died' and went out of body and first floated over myself in the room - then went up through the roof and over the house. Began having alternating bright, lovely, expansive vision then dark, closed-in uncomfortable vision. Preferred the light vision. These two alternated and I can still recall the exact sensation and feeling I had at the time while seeing them. Was puzzled but then awoke next morning, well.
Age 15: Went to dentist (after not being to one for many years). Was given an injection, the dentist walked out of room, my heart immediately went boom! Against my chest and I was out body, looking down on myself. It was lovely up there. I saw a huge, expanding horizon and lots of bright light. They brought me back, and when I came back, I looked around at the magazines which had been in my lap prior to my experience, but while I was up there, I saw they were all over the floor. After I came back, I saw that they were indeed all over the floor. Was told I was sensitive to the epinephrine propellant stuff used in Novocain.
During my twenties I began having many spontaneous out of body trips, journeys. Some OBEs I stayed in the general vicinity of my bedroom while sleeping, some where I went to other parts of the world, and one where I went out into space in a straight line until I was told by someone bigger than myself in no uncertain terms that I must 'Go Back! It's not your time yet.' I was never afraid, but always adventurous. In some of the experiences, I had a friend or guide, who seemed to me to be an older male who was a sort of teacher. One of the things he was teaching me was that we would contact people while they were sleeping who were shortly going to die, to prepare them. We would draw them out of their bodies and have friendly conferences, and they seemed to know us. They would not consciously remember this, but they benefited from it nonetheless - and I also to understood that this happens to everyone.
Sometimes it would happen in my sleep, but a couple of times I had a feeling in my chest that would draw me home and I would lie down and instantly go out. Once I had to leave work because of this, and I am glad I did, because this was a very important trip I had to make.
The experiences stopped during my late thirties, but to this day one will happen spontaneously, as a surprise present, which is nice.
I also had an angelic encounter in the 1980's, which healed me from a year-long strep illness.
That's about it.

Există una sau mai multe părți ale experienței dumneavoastră care sunt deosebit de semnificative sau importante pentru dumneavoastră? Vă rugăm să explicați.
The fact that there is more beyond ourselves than we can ever imagine. I had a pretty horrible childhood, and the experiences helped me survive and made me very intuitive, spiritual, and made me read voraciously from the age of four, everything I could get my hands on, hoping (to myself, as I hadn't told anybody) that I might someday come across something similar to my experiences.
Also, having seen my 'dead' body from a distance more than once and knowing it's not a frightening thing - that 'dying' is nothing to be afraid of.
Ați împărtășit vreodată această experiență cu alții?
Yes Decades before I shared it. I shared the childhood experiences with my mother, who verified the details of the house I lived in at age two, and the thing about the emergency man in the dark uniform with matching dark hat.
Aveați cunoștințe despre experiența morții aproape (EMI) înainte de experiența dumneavoastră?
No I thought I was the only person this had ever happened to, because nobody ever spoke about it. I didn't even really know exactly what had happed to me (as a child, anyway.)
Ce credeai despre realitatea experienței tale la scurt timp (zile sau săptămâni) după ce s-a întâmplat?
Experience was definitely real It was more real than life on earth is real. It was the REAL reality. This (life on earth) is just a shadow or reflection of reality. And the brightest sunlight is dim in comparison.
Ce crezi acum despre realitatea experienței tale?
Experience was definitely real Same as above. Never changed my view of it.
În vreun moment al vieții dumneavoastră, ceva a reprodus vreodată vreo parte a experienței?
No
