Maria M's Experience

Experience description:
My
mother died unexpectedly when I was 18 years old. For 2 years (prior to NDE) I
was so sad, so depressed that I wanted to die so badly but I couldn't take my
life. My body was living but my spirit my soul was dead. One day the need to die
was so profound that I went to my bedroom and prayed for god to take me. I
didn't want to live without my mother. I wanted to be with her so badly that I
begged god to just take me away from all the pain and despair. While laying on
my bed begging to die I felt my heart slowing down and I drifted off. Then
darkness. It was dark yet not completely dark. There was some light but it
appeared to be very far away. I started to notice that I was in a tunnel. It
was shimmering with light almost golden textures but not like anything I've seen
before. The light was far from me in the distance.
I'm
looking down but I can't see my feet. I see some water not like a river or a
stream but rather water running on a surface after a heavy downpour of rain. I
also saw some kind of golden rocks as well. I see the rocks and at that point I
noticed I'm not alone. Others are traveling with me but I don't know who they
are yet I feel like I know them. I can't see their faces or bodies just
silhouettes. Some fall or struggle due to rocks but I don't stop. I just know
they don't make it to the bright light. The light is so bright now. I'd say
it's the brightness whiteness I've ever seen. I felt no pain, no grief, no
sorrow. I felt so light so free so bright and pure love is the best way to
describe it in words. It's pure it's everything it's our beginning. I see all
the light at the end now and two beings of light on opposite sides of an
entrance. Guardians. Light figures as white as light but I can see a figures
somehow. I hear my voice say I want to come in I want to be here. I hear you
can not come. My voice responds why I've been good I don't want to go back
please. I hear it's not your time you have more to do.
At
that moment I'm laying in my bed and all the pain and sorrow I was feeling was
gone. A weight was lifted my spirit returned and I was reborn wanting to live.
My faith restored and knowledge of the light that awaits me.
Was
the kind of experience difficult to express in words?
No
At

No
At
what time during the experience were you at your highest level of consciousness
and alertness?
The whole experience I was very alert and conscious. But so much more at
entrance to the light
How

compare to your normal every day consciousness and alertness?

different from your normal every day consciousness and alertness, please
explain:
The whole experience I was very alert and conscious. But so much more at
entrance to the light
Did
your vision differ in any way from your normal, everyday vision (in any aspect,
such as clarity, field of vision, colors, brightness, depth perception degree of
solidness/transparency of objects, etc.)?
Yes Yes. Hopefully my description of my experience will shed some light.
The light alone is brighter that any sun or star. The guardian light beings are
light yet I could separate them from the light all around the entrance. I still
remember the golden shimmer of the tunnel, the clear silky water the flowed, the
others that stumbled from rocks
Did
your hearing differ in any way from your normal, everyday hearing (in any
aspect, such as clarity, ability to recognize source of sound, pitch, loudness,
etc.)?
Yes Sounds felt within me
Did
you experience a separation of your consciousness from your body?
Yes
What emotions did you feel during the experience?
Scared of the dark at first, as the light entered the fear stopped. I
never wondered where am I ?so I was determined to go on even thought others fell
I didnt stop to help. I had to go on without them.
Did
you pass into or through a tunnel or enclosure?
Yes After darkness my journey through the tunnel began
Did
you see a light?
Yes
Did
you meet or see any other beings?
Yes I saw others in the tunnel as silhouettes and I felt like I knew them
but didn't know why. I did not communicate with them. At the end I saw the light
beings and we communicated

you experience a review of past events in your life?
No

you observe or hear anything regarding people or events during your experience
that could be verified later?
No
Did
you see or visit any beautiful or otherwise distinctive locations, levels or
dimensions?
No
Did
you have any sense of altered space or time?
Yes Tunnel was wide and long. The light seemed so far away yet not. The
space itself had earth type elements (water/rock) yet very different at the same
time
Did
you have a sense of knowing special knowledge, universal order and/or purpose?
Yes This experience left me with one conclusion we are special. We
