I was traveling in China with my family. I got sick and it felt like a bad case of the flu. I had a high fever for several days and the medications stopped working. When we arrived in Tibet, I asked my mother to take me to a hospital, because I was so ill that I was seriously afraid of dying. Something that had never happened to me before in my life.

At the hospital in Tibet, the doctors didn't speak English, so I couldn't find out what illness I had and what exactly was wrong with me. They gave me several injections and an oxygen mask. When I got a little better, I was transferred to the hotel and continued with the oxygen.

I wanted to return with my family to Germany, where they lived, since I had moved to Spain a few years before. It was not an easy task to find flights and we decided to continue with the trip, since we only had a few days left in Beijing.

Back in Beijing, at night I had a strange dream in which it seemed as if there was a funeral in heaven for a Chinese emperor. The people attending the funeral seemed like family to me, even though I couldn't recognize anyone in particular. The figure of the dead emperor was on a kind of ladder. Suddenly I saw that his soul was leaving the body, however no one else in the audience seemed to realize that. When his soul left the body, I inexplicably recognized the soul. I don't know who he was in that life, but I had known his soul for centuries.

The next moment my soul left my body. I felt it very clearly. First my body began to tremble and my soul shot out high into another dimension. There was a blue sky of a very intense color that surrounded me. Let's say I understood that it was a kind of hall, before they open the door to the ultimate heaven.

The soul of the unknown man (Chinese emperor) asked me seriously, a little angrily, what was I doing there. I shouldn't be there, nor was it my time. I had to return immediately, before it was too late. However I did not want to go back to my body. I felt indescribable pleasure, a light and painless feeling. I communicated with that man without words, since we both had no bodies. It was a telepathic communication. The man, seeing that I refused to return to my earthly life, began to convince me. He said that even though right now I sometimes felt lonely and abandoned, I really wasn't. There was always someone who loves us. He said that they would love and need me a lot in the future. I was going to have two children and only I could be their mother. They were waiting to reincarnate as my children and if I stayed there in heaven, I would change the course of everything. Since I always wanted to have family, I felt a certain sorrow at the idea of depriving my future children of their mother, even if it sounds a little absurd.

He told me that each of us had a mission. Mine was to create that family and it was going to bring me a lot of happiness. He also said that we cannot interrupt our mission ahead of time (via suicide), as it could have consequences for everyone around us.

Suddenly, I understood that human beings do not understand anything in their earthly bodies, which prevent them from seeing the beyond. I also understood that it is not anyone's fault, since our physiological structure is like that and it is tremendously imperfect. There are many more forms of existence, but souls have to be prepared to reincarnate in those forms. Only when a soul has a considerable life trajectory and consequent learning, can it rise to the other level and live lives in more developed bodies. I understood everything suddenly, the laws of physics, the way the whole world works, everything made sense and everything was connected. I thought that was wonderful, it was our true home and I will be so happy when I can return to that beautiful place. I felt immense love for the whole of nature and the souls of this world, because we are all woven from the same material, that light and so pure energy.

It was time to make up my mind and I felt ready to go back and live my life in the best possible way. The man caught my soul and - as if it was a baseball - he threw me at high speed back and I felt like I was falling. I returned to my body and felt great pain, I sat up abruptly in my bed and started to breathe, very agitated. The moment my soul came back into my body, I felt like my skin had to accommodate that energy, which was painful and uncomfortable. I felt the full weight of my body; I am not overweight, I am a slim woman, but it was as if I suddenly realized that this earthly existence is such a burden. I got a little disgusted, since my body seemed to be a bag of bones, meat and blood and I did not understand how it could harbor something as beautiful and pure as my soul.

I was very thoughtful during the following days. I was nostalgic for that beautiful place. I was sad to be on earth. I began to understand some passages in the bible. We are made of the same energy as God. We are all one. I understood that humans created religions to have a certain structure and system, since the earthly world has always been eager for forms and does not understand abstract terms. After that experience I did not want to belong to a specific religion, since we are all one and the same. I now reject dogma more than ever. At the same time I understand that humans need a system and an order to be able to practice their religion, so I respect all religions as long as they are peaceful.

That experience changed my way of seeing things. I am much less demanding of myself and other people, since I understand that many times I do not know how to do better. We are all “locked up” in that body and we lack the 360º vision and therefore the understanding of this life. Now I have my first child and I am immensely happy. In fact, I have the feeling that this child was made for me and was sent to me from heaven.

Now I am not afraid of death. I am also aware that I am going to live a very long life.

At the time of your experience was there an associated life-threatening event?   Uncertain. I had just had an illness during my trip in China. I was already recovering. I had the experience while sleeping.

Was the experience difficult to express in words? Yes     Words do not fit the experience as lived. The feeling experienced is so extraordinary that it cannot be described with words.

At what time during the experience were you at your highest level of consciousness and alertness?      When my soul left my body.

How did your highest level of consciousness and alertness during the experience compare to your normal everyday consciousness and alertness?      More consciousness and alertness than normal.   I was aware of everything. I feft that this was indeed life. I've never been as conscious as I was at the time.

Please compare your vision during the experience to your everyday vision that you had immediately prior to the time of the experience.   360º vision. There were none of the usual limits for anything.

Please compare your hearing during the experience to your everyday hearing that you had immediately prior to the time of the experience.   Since communication was telepathic, I didn't hear anything in particular.

Did you see or hear any earthly events that were occurring during a time that your consciousness / awareness was apart from your physical / earthly body?   No

What emotions did you feel during the experience?   Absolute and unconditional love, peace and happiness.

Did you pass into or through a tunnel?   No

Did you see an unearthly light?   No

Did you seem to encounter a mystical being or presence, or hear an unidentifiable voice?   I encountered a definite being, or a voice clearly of mystical or unearthly origin. The deceased man whom I did not know in life.

Did you encounter or become aware of any beings who previously lived on earth who are described by name in religions (for example: Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, etc.)?   Yes   A man whom I did not know who had just passed away. I knew his soul, but not him personally in life.

Did you encounter or become aware of any deceased (or alive) beings?   Yes   A man whom I did not know who had just passed away. I knew his soul, but not him personally in life.

Did you become aware of past events in your life during your experience? No

Did you seem to enter some other, unearthly world? A clearly mystical or unearthly realm.

An intense blue sky. But even though it was not yet every soul, it was a sort of "receiver".

Did time seem to speed up or slow down? Everything seemed to be happening at once; or time stopped or lost all meaning. Time does not exist in that other dimension. Time is an earthly invention.

Did you suddenly seem to understand everything? Everything about the universe. I understood how our entire existence and everything around us functions.

Did you reach a boundary or limiting physical structure? Uncertain
I perceived that it was not heaven itself, there was a world above that one, but that it was only open to souls who definitively leave this world.

Did you come to a border or point of no return? I came to a definite conscious decision to return to life. The other soul convinced me that I had to go back for the well-being of my future family. Since I always wanted to have children, I returned for their own good.

Did scenes from the future come to you? Scenes from my personal future.
I became aware of my two future children.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness suggesting that there either is (or is not) continued existence after earthly life (“life after death”)? Yes Our true home is that life after death. What happens on earth is only a temporary existence, which serves to learn and perfect the soul.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness that God or a supreme being either does (or does not) exist? Yes God is made of the same energy as our own souls. We are all one.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness that you either did (or did not) exist prior to this lifetime? Yes I understood that all the souls go through a very long learning process and that we all live multiple lives. In fact, the number of lives is enormous.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness that a mystical universal connection or unity/oneness either does (or does not) exist?   Yes   Everything is linked. There is always a plan for everything and everyone. Nothing happens randomly. However, we have free will and our lives depend on the decisions we make. We are all made of the same energy.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness regarding earthly life’s meaning or purpose?   Yes   It is used for learning. As if it were a school and each life is a level superior to the previous one.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness regarding earthly life’s difficulties, challenges, or hardships?  Yes. On the one hand we go through many hardships due to our bad decisions. On the other hand, we do not know how to do better, since our body does not allow us to see beyond. Tragic events of force majeure also serve for learning such as catastrophes, deaths of loved ones, etc.

During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness regarding love? Yes. Love is our strength and our everything. We cannot function without love. True love has no limits, it is unconditional and it is only oriented towards our souls and nature. It does not know gender or human relationships, but is superior to all known love on earth.

During your experience, did you encounter any other specific information / awareness that you have not shared in other questions that is relevant to living our earthly lives?   No

Did you have a sense of knowing special knowledge or purpose?   Yes   My personal purpose in this life is to create a family and I did it. Before, I was very oriented towards professional achievements and also distrusted all men in relation to love. My way of seeing things changed afterwards.

What occurred during your experience included:   Content that was both consistent and not consistent with the beliefs you had at the time of your experience. I believed in life after death, but I never imagined it was so wonderful.

How accurately do you remember the experience in comparison to other life events that occurred around the time of the experience?   I remember the experience more accurately than other life events that occurred around the time of the experience. I remember the whole experience with great precision and clarity.

Discuss any changes that might have occurred in your life after your experience:   I am more optimistic. I forgive more easily. I have more empathy and I’m more emotional than before.

My experience directly resulted in:   Moderate changes in my life

Did you have any changes in your values or beliefs after the experience that occurred as a result of the experience?   No

Do you have any psychic, non-ordinary or other special gifts after your experience that you did not have before the experience?   No

Are there one or several parts of your experience that are especially meaningful or significant to you?     For me it has been very important to know that I am never alone. There is always someone who loves you, although we don't see or understand it, but we are never alone. The feeling of loneliness has disappeared.

Have you ever shared this experience with others? Yes One year later I shared it with a friend. She was a little scared and didn't want to talk about it anymore. I understood that it was better not to talk about that experience, because people are not prepared to understand it.

Did you have any knowledge of near death experience (NDE) prior to your experience? Yes. I always found the topic interesting. However, I only knew about the tunnel and the light. I did not experience any of that.

What did you believe about the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it happened:   Experience was definitely real.   It was very real and meaningful to me. I was grateful to have experienced it.

What do you believe about the reality of your experience at the current time:   Experience was definitely real. I still remember the experience with complete clarity and I do not doubt at all its veracity.

Have your relationships changed specifically as a result of your experience?   Yes. I am more compassionate and I don't get angry that easily with people.
Have your religious beliefs/spiritual practices changed specifically as a result of your experience?   Yes   I no longer care about a set religion. I just want us all to be in peace and love, as we are all one.

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

Is there anything else that you would like to add about your experience?   We have to give meaning to our life. Knowing that everything has a meaning and not despair in the face of adversity, since they are tests that we must overcome.

Did the questions asked and information that you provided accurately and comprehensively describe your experience? Yes

Estaba de viaje en China con mi familia. Enfermé y se sentía como si fuera una gripe fuerte. Tuve fiebre alta durante varios días y los medicamentos dejaron de funcionar. Cuando llegamos a Tíbet, pedí a mi madre que me llevasen al hospital, porque me encontraba tan mal que tenía un serio miedo de la muerte. Algo que nunca me pasó antes en mi vida.

En el hospital en Tíbet los médicos no hablaban inglés, así que no pude descubrir qué enfermedad tenía y qué me pasaba exactamente. Me pusieron varias inyecciones y mascarilla de oxígeno. Cuando me mejoré un poco, fue trasladada al hotel y seguía allí con el oxígeno.

Quería volver con mi familia a Alemania, es donde vivían ellos, ya que yo hace unos años me había mudado a España. No fue una tarea fácil encontrar vuelos y decidimos seguir con el viaje, ya que solo nos quedaban algunos días en Pekín.

Ya en Pekín, por la noche tuve un sueño raro que parecía como si hubiese un funeral en el cielo para un emperador chino. La gente que asistía al funeral me parecía familia, aunque no pudiese reconocer a nadie en concreto. La figura del emperador muerto estaba en una especie de escalera. De repente vi que su alma dejaba el cuerpo, sin embargo nadie más de los asistentes parecía enterarse de eso. Cuando su alma dejaba el cuerpo, reconocí el alma de forma inexplicable. No sé quién fue en esa vida, pero conocía a su alma desde siglos.

El acto seguido mi alma dejó el cuerpo. Lo sentí de forma muy clara. Primero mi cuerpo empezó a temblar y mi alma salió por arriba disparada hacia otra dimensión. Era un cielo azul de un color muy intenso que me rodeaba. Digamos comprendí que era una especie del recibidor, antes de que te abran la puerta al cielo definitivo.

El alma del hombre desconocido (emperador chino) me preguntó serio, un poco enfadado, qué hacía yo allí. No debería estar allí, ni era mi momento. Tenía que volver de forma inmediata, hasta que no se haga demasiado tarde. Sin embargo yo no quería volver a mi cuerpo. Sentía un placer indescriptible, una sensación liviana y sin dolor alguno. Comunicaba con el hombre sin palabras, ya que ambos no teníamos cuerpos. Era una comunicación telepática. El hombre al ver que yo me negaba volver a mi vida terrenal, empezó a convencerme. Dijo que aunque ahora mismo a veces me sintiera sola y abandonada, en realidad no era así. Siempre hay alguien que nos quiere. Dijo que me iban a querer y necesitar mucho en el futuro. Iba a tener dos hijos y solo yo podía ser su madre. Estaban esperando reencarnarse en mis hijos y si me quedaba allí en el cielo, cambiaba el rumbo de todo. Dado que siempre quise tener familia, sentí una cierta pena si

Me dijo que cada uno de nosotros tenía una misión. La mía era crear esa familia y que me iba a traer mucha felicidad. También dijo que no podemos interrumpir nuestra misión antes del tiempo (el suicidio), ya que podía tener unas consecuencias para todos que nos rodean.

De repente, comprendí que los humanos no entendemos nada en nuestros cuerpos terrenales, nos impiden ver el más allá. También comprendí que no es culpa de nadie, ya que nuestra estructura fisiológica es así y es tremendamente imperfecta. Hay muchas más formas de existencia, pero los almas tienen que estar preparados para reencarnarse en esas formas. Solo cuando un alma tiene una trayectoria de vidas considerable y de consiguiente aprendizaje, puede subir al otro nivel y vivir vidas en cuerpos más desarrollados. Entendía todo de repente, las leyes de física, el funcionamiento del mundo entero, todo tenía sentido y estaba relacionado entre si. Pensé que aquello era maravilloso, era nuestra verdadera casa y seré tan feliz cuando pueda volver a ese lugar tan bonito. Sentí el amor inmenso hacia toda la naturaleza y los almas de este mundo, porque todos estamos tejidos de la misma materia, esa luz y energía tan pura.

Llegó el momento de decidirme y me sentí preparada para volver y vivir mi vida de la mejor manera posible. El hombre cogió mi alma y como si fuera una pelota de béisbol, me lanzó a gran velocidad de vuelta y sentí como si me cayese. Volví a mi cuerpo y sentí un gran dolor, me senté abruptamente en mi cama y empecé a respirar muy agitada. En el momento cuando mi alma entró de vuelta en mi cuerpo, sentí como si estuvieran cociendo mi piel a esa energía, lo cual fue doloroso e incómodo. Sentí todo el peso de mi cuerpo, no tengo sobrepeso, soy una mujer delgada, pero como si de repente me diese cuenta de esa existencia terrenal tan pesada. Me entró un poco de asco, ya que mi cuerpo parecía ser un saco de huesos, carne y sangre y no entendía como podía albergar algo tan hermoso y puro como mi alma.

Los días siguientes pasé muy pensativa. Me entró nostalgia de ese lugar tan hermoso. Sentía tristeza por estar en la tierra. Empecé a comprender algunos pasajes de la biblia. Nosotros estamos hechos de la misma energía que dios. Somos todos uno. Comprendí que los humanos crearon religiones para tener una cierta estructura y sistema, ya que el mundo terrenal siempre precisa de formas y no entiende términos abstractos. Después de esa experiencia no quise pertenecer a una determinada religión, ya que somos todos uno e iguales. Rechazo el dogma más que nuca ahora. A la vez comprendo que los humanos necesitan un sistema y orden para poder practicar su religión, así que respeto todas las religiones mientras sean pacíficas.

Esa experiencia cambió mi forma de ver las cosas. Soy mucho menos exigente conmigo misma y con otras personas, ya que entiendo que muchas veces no saber hacerlo mejor. Estamos todos “encerrados” en ese cuerpo y nos falta la visión de 360º y por tanto la comprensión de esta vida. Ahora tengo a mi primer hijo y soy inmensamente feliz. De hecho, tengo la sensación que ese niño ha sido hecho para mi y me fue enviado desde el cielo.

Ahora no tengo miedo a la muerte. Asimismo soy consciente que voy a vivir una vida muy larga.
