Per A's Experience
|
Experience description:
Actually I
would like to tell you about my entire life up to the point to my experience and
also about the time from after the experience up until now. But then it would be
a full book.
Therefore I
will only write about the experience itself.
I had for a
couple of months begun to seek God and the meaning of life. I researched daily,
several hours, on the internet about everything from evolution to theories of
creation.
At the point
of time when I had my experience I had become more and more convinced that an
intelligence laid behind everything that exists in the universe. I was, however,
afraid of God, judgment, punishment and eternal doom after death, probably
because I under my entire childhood had a father who was a member of Jehovah�s
Witnesses who have minted my view on God and religion.
This was a
late afternoon in spring, around Mars/April year 2010 and I was located at my
middle brother�s house to be a babysitter for his three year old son, as my
brother was at a friend�s house. I sat at the computer searching on Google about
Christianity and particularly Jesus, as I had been given a speck of hope that I
would not be doomed because I didn�t want to be a Jehovah�s Witness. This was
because a friend of mine at the Pentecostal church had explained to me that
Jesus had already taken the punishment for my past and future sins. I thought
this sounded fantastic, but too good to be true. Under my entire uprising I had
been given a picture of a harsh and demanding God trough my father.
I was
confused and tired of all the searching and felt genuinely up given because it
felt difficult for me to believe in a forgiving God. So I prayed a desperate
prayer there at my brother�s house as his child had fallen asleep. I prayed for
forgiveness and wisdom. I wanted to know who God really was. Nothing happened
and I once again sat down in front of the computer and looked trough some
Christian websites and forums, my head was completely empty like a zombie
because of all my brooding. After around 20 to 30 minutes I started to feel my
feets vibrating. I thought they had just fallen asleep but the vibrations slowly
moves from my feets up up trough my calves, knees, and up to my hip before
turning around and moving down to the feets again. This was repeated a handful
of times but the last times it didn�t stop at my hips but moved upwards to the
gut and chest where it stopped and that was when it all really began. From here
on it is a bit difficult to explain in words what I experienced but I�ll do my
best.
When it
reaches my chest it feels like my whole body spasms. I grab the armrests on the
chair and my eyes fall shut, I think, or maybe I just lost contact with the
world around me. It suddenly felt like an extremely powerful storm of light,
warmth, indescribable love and absolute peace fully and literally blows trough
my inner being. I become aware of a sort of shapeless light inside my chest that
just perfectly screams out love into my body making me I feel almost like I�m
going to break.
Here on after
it all becomes hard to describe as what I experienced didn�t happen in any
particular order or in a linear timeframe. I can at least describe it as good as
possible with words and metaphors, even though I perceived all that I describe
as happening all at once, independent of time. With my consciousness I fly into
my brothers bedroom where his son lies asleep in the large bed. I stroke him
across the head with an incredible love inside me that is impossible to
describe! Thereafter I float in the nothingness, an infinite, bright emptiness.
What I
experience is not visual as we perceive the world with our physical eyes, but it
is rather like I am aware of everything and �see� with my heart, which is much
clearer! What we call �sight� that we perceive with our eyes is very limited in
comparison. I become surprised over the immense peace I am feeling, totally
liberated from fear, anguish, worries, stress, brooding, physical pain and
discomfort. I just AM
I�m feeling
light as a feather. I feel a presence that I afterwards will describe as God.
This presence is indescribable and the love I feel overwhelming. If I had felt
this in my physical body, in the ordinary physical world, I would have fallen
down on the ground and cried out rivers! This presence shows me things and
communicates with feelings, not words or telepathy, but feeling is the closest
way to describe it! Perfect, ultimate communication!
I feel and
become aware of that this love/God has always been with me, every second of my
life. Felt my feelings, watched over me and loved me without limit and that it
would always be like that! I have nothing to fear! I feel that this God is one
with me and I, one with God. I become aware that I consist of God just like
everyone else. I had my entire life been subconsciously searching for God,
safety and help and I had now became aware that he had always been with me,
helped me and had been making sure I made it. This has God done trough other
people in my surroundings, spoken to me through the entire creation. God IS
everything that exists and communicates with us with the help of absolutely
everything. Trough other people, nature, internet, EVERYTHING! I just hadn�t
understood it or seen it! Now however it is so clear and logical as I during
this moment are in perfect harmony and unity with God.
I am given
visions where I �see� nature, trees, animals and I am aware of every little vein
in the trees, every muscle in the animals and I see total perfection and
intelligence in everything! In this state there is no doubt that something like
randomness does not exist. I AM God! I AM the creation and the whole universe
seems so logical and clear! How come that I didn�t realize this earlier! We are
all God and of the same spirit. We are all one! Further on I am given a vision
of Earth, the size of a basketball where it is positioned one decimeter from my
eyes.
I see like a
spiritual veil around earth that somehow prevents people from remembering what
they really are! I was now free, outside of my personal bubble and this �veil�
around Earth represents a kind of humanities own �bubble�. I see how unaware
people are about the fact that they are actually inside God. It feels in this
state so absurd that so many people doesn�t even believe in anything more than
science and matter, as they pretty much running around in Gods hand (Earth)
fighting wars, misbehaves and goes into conflict right in front of Gods face who
time after time humbly asks for everyone�s attention just to tell them all
magnificent and unconditionally loved they are and that everything is OK.
I feel the
universe as one big consciousness. Gods consciousness. The materia and the
physical world is just an illusion! In this state it feels like I have awaken
from a dream. This state is knife sharp, strong and bright compared to the
physical reality. The physical reality is like a NIGHTMARE in comparison. A
DREAM if you were to compare its level of reality.
I am given
visions of preachers and churches and feel that it has nothing to do with God at
all! These clothe, symbols and buildings are really completely unimportant. This
goes for all religions. God has no religion! I understand that there are a
little piece of God in all religions but that religions are �contaminated� by
human thoughts and feelings. There are no devil or similar. It would be absurd
to believe that this God I was now experiencing would allow something like a
devil. It is a human invention I realize. Neither are there any punishment or
judgment in the afterlife, only wonderful love and light if we just allow
ourselves to it. I get to see who God is: simple and unconditional love.
God is not
complicated and feelings like anger, jealousy, envy, reprimands, punishment,
demands, rules, suspiciousness and �as you make your bed, so will you sleep� is
not a part of Gods being. I get to see that life is only about loving everything
and everyone, from atoms to blue whales, without any demanding or fear! That is
the simple but wonderful purpose and nature with life and God! Just to be and
love, not least yourself, unconditionally! But people in the physical world are
having it hard to accept this and not least, realize that they themselves are
worth all the love in the world. People make their lives complicated and hard
trough diversions and fear! God is always with us, every second of our lives,
fully dedicated and we are never alone! God is within us all and experience and
feel everything that we feel in our lives. God is a state, Love! Every time we
commit an act of love against another being that is God working trough us
towards� God!
All this I
experienced at the same time.
I was then
back in my computer chair, stunned.
I wanted to
lay down on with my forehead to the floor out of awe for what I had just
experienced and felt, but refrained from doing so since I didn�t want to risk
that my nephew had woken up, stepped in to the room and found me on the floor as
that might have scared him.
I don�t know
why I got to experience this since I was not in any way near death or in a
coma-like state. Neither was I under the influence of any substance what so ever
and I am not suffering from any mental diseases that can play tricks to your
brain. Moreover this was so incredibly much more real than what we experience in
our everyday lives. Within 2 years after the experience my chronic and
incurable sickness I had carried for a few years faded away.
Love to all
of you!
There are no
words that give this experience justice. No words have the power to describe
what I experienced and I can only describe it in a limited and metaphorical way.
The state I was in can not be imagined or experienced with our physical
brain/senses. I would never have been able to imagine anything near this before
the experience. To explain it is like explaining what a color look like to
someone who has been blind since birth.
I can�t
describe when as I didn�t experience any time but I could say that it was from
when I lost the perception of my surroundings and my physical body.
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
What I
experienced was that I �saw� everything from the inside. As if I was a part of
everything. I was aware of everything rather than saw everything. I had visions
of trees and animals where I could see and feel everything that was inside these
and how they were constructed. It was really sharp! Colors, contours, everything
was knife sharp and bright and it was as if I had been given a new very powerful
sense. It was not visual. I more like felt and was aware of everything inside me
and what we see with our eyes in our physical bodies is very limited in
comparison.
I felt
completely free, peaceful, infinitely loved. I had no fears what so ever. I
couldn�t even imagine the pain, fear, stress etc. that we feel daily in our
bodies. It was an incredible love and peace I was feeling all the way in to my
most inner being. I was as if disconnected to my body and its feelings, but
never saw my body from the outside. Therefore I don�t know if I actually did
leave the body but I had a vision where I moved up to my nephew, who I was
babysitting, and stroked him over the head with an incredible love inside me. I
have no memory of seeing my hand while doing this. I also had a vision where I
found myself above the building where my brother lives.
Rather than
seeing a light I felt and was aware of an amazing light that traveled through my
inner being. A spiritual light.
I didn�t see
any being visually, neither could I distinguish shapes of any �light being� or
similar. Rather, I felt a presence that rushed through my inner being and this
presence communicated with me through feeling. Not words, not even words by
telepathy. It was through feelings that said more than words. I, at the time,
thought of it as Jesus or God but felt afterwards that God is EVERYONE. No names
were �expressed� that identified the presence. It felt more like it was the
entire universe that communicated with me, but I choose to say God. God let me
feel that he loved me beyond description and that he had always been with me,
every second of my life. He let me know that he had always spoken to me through
other people in my surroundings, through the internet, he can communicate with
us through absolutely anything in the creation because he IS everything, he is
one with us and we humans are one with him.
It was like
he took my hand and said: �I am here, I really do exist, I love you so
incredibly much. I have always been with you and will always be with you.
Remember that from now on.�
Did you see
or visit any beautiful or otherwise distinctive locations, levels or dimensions? Uncertain
I had
�visions� about nature, animals etc. where I could see every little vein inside
all plants and animals, but I can�t tell if I was in another dimension. However
it felt like I saw the physical universe from another dimension that allowed me
to see that the universe was God and spiritual. Like a big consciousness rather
than matter. Materia is like an illusion. I floated in to another dimension that
had nothing to do with this universe, or more like, I felt like I actually was
the universe and everything seemed so logical!
I realized
that God is absolutely everything. God is everyone and works through us all. He
is life and existence in general. Nothing exists that is separated from God. I
realized that God is only love, totally uncomplicated and completely
unconditionally. God loves absolutely everything that exists and feelings such
as wrath, judgment, demands, punishment, jealousness and envy is not in Gods
being at all. I also realized that there is no evil opposite to god such as
�Satan� or the devil. I became aware that life on earth is about LOVING
everything and everyone in the creation including yourself. Nothing else! That
is the only so simple but so wonderful truth, but this is so hard for us humans
to understand when we are in our bodies. We humans make everything so
complicated and we are not able to feel ourselves worthy who God really is. The
human believes this is �too good to be true� and therefor has to take
complicated and difficult detours in life which makes it harder than what it
needs to be. I learned that our religions has a tiny bit of God in them, but
are contaminated by human thoughts and feelings which makes people misunderstand
God and can if things goes bad become afraid. There is no �right� way to God and
no religion has a monopoly on God. I afterwards received knowledge about how
humans may misunderstand God. For example, when Jesus said �Love thy neighbor
and God� many people interprets that as a demand or a condition for God�s love
rather than as a promise. Because actually, when you have witnessed God then you
can�t do anything but love �him� and your neighbor, as you have seen how
wonderful god really is.
After the
experience I am able to �bring up� divine love for absolutely anyone, even the
most hated person. I have greater understanding for other people and because of
that even greater forgiveness. I don�t view everything as black and white. I am
able to induce love for myself that feels like warm shivers in my whole physical
body. I can also speak some form of tounge where I also feel this love and these
shivers in my body, with a feeling of peace afterwards.
Have you
shared this experience with others? Yes
I told about
this experience the same evening for a christian friend that couldn�t really
explain what i had experienced. He believed me and thought it sounded amazing. I
told it a few days later to 2 of my 3 brothers and my mother. Everyone of them
had since earlier had a more or less profound belief that there is some sort of
�God� or higher power. They believed in what I said but had it difficult to
really comperhend it. At some points they wondered if I maybe had been
hallucinating. Since then they seem to have been able to process what I told
them and respect it. I have since then been given some sort of position as a
spiritual oracle and advisor for some people in my family, even though it feels
a little silly to say it that way, haha. I also told my father about my
experience the day after it happened. He is a Jehovas Witness and seemed
interested in what had happened, but warned me for that �Satan can show himself
in the shape of light and mislead people that way. But I knew that it wasn�t
that way and that no such thing at Satan existed!
He didn�t ask
me any more about it, but at a later time I often questioned his and Jehovas
witnesses, in my opinion, loveless belief, (as it took some time for me to dare
letting go of Christianity) and it ended up in hot debate every time until I
realized that there is no reason to argue about it. I think that everyone should
believe what they want if it makes them happy, even if it does NOT make them
happy. I feel today that the best thing is to live your life in unconditional
love towards everyone, regardless of belief or background and thereby make a
nice example out of your life. It is hard for a human to realize just how
unconditionally loving God really is, if you have not experienced what I and
thousands of others have experienced in this highly �supernatural� way.
I had read a
little about it on the internet, but soon became afraid of them as I also could
read at Christian forums about this phenomena where they warned for �Satan in
the shape of light� I kept myself away from it because of the eventual
consequences and fear of God but still I felt a draw and an interest to the
phenomena as God seemed so wonderful out from what I had read about NDEs
What meant the most to
me and that changed my view on life, is when I was given the knowledge that I am
so incredibly loved just for
whom
I am and that I never need to fear God.
Of everything
that is to be feared in this world God is not one of those things. I felt so
relieved and uplifted because of this and the knowledge that I am never really
alone. I had felt alone and misunderstood my entire life before this experience.
I have grown a great
bit spiritually during the two years that have passed and I realize more and
more that everything really works the way I understood it in the experience.
Also
the fact that I can relate so well to other peoples similar experiences,
confirms even more that what I experienced really happened, even though it still
today feels like a very strange and swirling experience.
I have changed a lot as
a person and my priorities and
interests in
life have also changed. My destructive living disappeared quickly and I no
longer feel an interest of staying in contact with some of my old friends as I
no longer feel that I have anything in common with them. Friends has left and
new ones has arrived!
Have your
religious beliefs/practices changed specifically as a result of your
experience? Yes
I am no longer
religious.
I am
spiritual, liberal and have a personal relationship to God and the spiritual. I
feel inside me what Is right for me. There are some good parts in all religions
but I am not attached to any of them. I am more interested in what other people
who have had NDEs experienced.
At the moment I am
happy with what I have written.
I will surely
come up with more later that I want to share because I feel that I grow in a
raging speed spiritually and learn more about life
I think you
have done a great job!
EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:
Egentligen skulle jag vilja
ber�tta om hela mitt liv fram till min upplevelse och �ven om tiden efter
upplevelsen fram till detta nu, d� allt h�nger ihop. Men d� f�r jag nog skriva
en hel bok!
S�
d�rf�r skriver jag nu enbart om sj�lva upplevelsen.
Jag hade i n�gra m�nader b�rjat s�ka Gud och mening med livet. Jag forskade
dagligen, flera timmar, p� internet om allt fr�n evolution till skapelseteorier.
Men vid denna tidpunkt d� jag hade min upplevelse s� hade jag blivit mer och mer
�vertygad om att en intelligens l�g bakom allt som existerar i universum. Jag
var dock r�dd f�r Gud, f�rd�mande, straff och evig underg�ng efter d�den.
F�rmodligen
mycket p.g.a att jag under hela min uppv�xt haft en pappa som �r med i Jehovas
vittnen som har pr�glat min syn p� Gud och religion.
Detta var en sen eftermiddag p� v�ren, i Mars/April �r 2010 och jag befann mig
hemma hos min mellanbror f�r att vara barnvakt �t hans, d� tre�rige son, d� min
bror var hemma hos en v�n. Jag satt vid datorn och googlade om kristendom och
framf�r allt Jesus, d� jag f�tt en gnutta hopp om att inte vara f�rd�md p.g.a
att jag inte ville vara ett Jehovas vittne, d� en v�n fr�n Pingstkyrkan
f�rklarade f�r mig att Jesus redan har tagit straffet f�r mina beg�ngna och
framtida synder. Detta l�t fantastiskt tyckte jag, men f�r bra f�r att vara sant,
d� jag under hela min uppv�xt f�tt en bild av en str�ng och kr�vande Gud via min
pappa. S� jag var f�rvirrad och tr�tt p� allt s�kande och k�nde mig genuint
uppgiven d� jag k�nde att det var s� sv�rt att tro p� en f�rl�tande Gud. S� jag
bad en desperat b�n d�r hemma hos min bror d� hans son hade somnat. Jag bad om
f�rst�else och visshet! Jag ville veta vem Gud egentligen var! Inget h�nde och
jag satte mig �terigen framf�r datorn och stirrade igenom n�gra kristna hemsidor
och forum, alldeles tom i huvudet som en zombie p.g.a allt grubblande. Efter ca
20-30 minuter s� k�nner jag att det b�rjar vibrera i f�tterna. jag t�nker att
dom har v�l somnat. Men vibrationerna letar sig l�ngsamt upp fr�n f�tterna,
genom vaderna, kn�na, l�ren och upp i h�ften f�r att sedan v�nda om och l�ngsamt
leta sig ner igen till f�tterna. Detta upprepade sig en handfull g�nger, men den
sista g�ngen s� stannade det inte vid h�fterna utan fortsatte upp i magen och
br�stet d�r det stannade och det var d� det verkligen b�rjade p� allvar!
H�rifr�n �r det lite sv�rt att beskriva i ord vad jag upplevde, men jag ska g�ra
mitt b�sta.
N�r det n�r br�stet s� �r det som att jag krampar till i hela kroppen och
greppar tag h�rt i armst�den p� datorstolen och mina �gon st�ngs. Tror jag.
Eller s� tappade helt enkelt bara kontakten med det som h�nde runt omkring mig.
Det k�nns pl�tsligt som att en oerh�rt kraftig storm av ljus, v�rme, obeskrivlig
k�rlek och vidunderlig frid fullkomligt och bokstavligt bl�ser genom mitt
innersta v�sen och jag blir medveten om ett slags forml�st ljus som befinner sig
i mitt br�st och fullkomligt vr�lar ut k�rlek i min mage s� jag n�stan tror jag
ska spricka! H�refter blir det sv�rbeskrivligt d� det jag nu kommer beskriva
inte h�nde i n�gon speciell ordning i en linj�r tid, men jag kan �tminstone
beskriva det s� gott det g�r med ord och metaforer, �ven om jag upplevde allt
jag beskriver som att det h�nde p� en och samma g�ng, ej beroende av tid! Med
mitt medvetande �flyger� jag in till min brors sovrum d�r hans son l�g och sov i
den stora dubbels�ngen. Jag stryker honom �ver huvudet med en enorm k�rlek inom
mig som inte g�r att beskriva! d�refter sv�var jag i intet, ett o�ndligt och
ljust tomrum. Det jag upplever �r inte visuellt som vi upplever v�rlden med v�ra
fysiska �gon, utan det �r snarare som att jag �r medveten om allt och �ser� med
mitt hj�rta, vilket �r betydligt skarpare! Det vi kallar f�r �syn� som vi
upplever med v�ra �gon �r v�ldigt begr�nsat i j�mf�relse. Jag blir f�rv�nad �ver
den otroliga frid jag k�nner. Totalt befriad fr�n r�dsla, �ngest, oro, stress,
grubbleri och fysisk sm�rta och kroppsligt obehag. Jag bara �R! Jag k�nner mig
l�tt som en fj�der. Jag k�nner en n�rvaro som jag i efterhand beskriver som Gud.
Denna n�rvaro �r obeskrivlig och k�rleken jag k�nner �r �verv�ldigande och om
jag skulle uppleva den i min fysiska kropp, i denna fysiska v�rld i vardagen s�
skulle jag antagligen falla ihop platt p� marken och gr�ta floder! Denna n�rvaro
visar mig saker och ting och kommunicerar med k�nslor. Inte med ord eller
telepati, utan k�nslor �r det n�rmsta jag kan beskriva det! Perfekt, ultimat
kommunikation! Jag k�nner och blir medveten om att denna k�rlek/Gud alltid har
varit med mig, varenda sekund av mitt liv. K�nt mina k�nslor, vakat �ver mig och
�lskat mig vidunderligt och att det alltid skulle vara s�! Jag har inget att
frukta! Jag k�nner att denna Gud �r ett med mig och jag, ett med Gud. Jag blir
medveten om att jag best�r utav Gud precis om alla andra. Jag hade hela mitt liv
undermedvetet s�kt efter Gud, trygghet och hj�lp och jag blir nu medveten om att
han alltid hade varit med mig, hj�lpt mig och sett till att jag klarat mig.
Detta har denna Gud gjort genom andra m�nniskor i min omgivning, talat till mig
genom hela skapelsen! Gud �R allt som existerar och kommunicerar med oss med
hj�lp av precis vad som helst. Genom andra m�nniskor, genom naturen, genom
internet, ALLT! Jag hade bara inte f�rst�tt eller sett det! Men nu �r det s�
tydligt och logiskt d� jag i detta tillst�nd �r i perfekt harmoni och enhet med
Gud. Jag f�r visioner d�r jag f�r �se� natur, tr�d, djur och jag �r medveten om
varenda lite �der i tr�den, varenda muskelf�ste i djuren och jag ser total
perfektion och intelligens i allt! I detta tillst�nd r�der det ingen tvekan om
att n�got som slumpen inte existerar. Jag �R Gud! Jag �R skapelsen och hela
universum verkar s� logiskt och klart! Att jag inte f�rst�tt allt detta
tidigare! Vi �r alla Gud och av samma ande. Vi h�r ihop! Vidare f�r jag en
vision av jorden, stor som en basketboll d� den befinner sig en decimeter fr�n
�gonen. Jag ser som en andlig hinna runt hela jorden som p� n�got s�tt hindrar
m�nniskor fr�n att komma ih�g vad dom faktiskt �r! Jag var nu fri, ute ur min
personliga bubbla och denna �hinna� runt jorden representerar en slags
m�nsklighetens kollektiva �bubbla�. Jag ser hur omedvetna m�nniskor �r om att
dom faktiskt befinner sig I Gud. Det k�nns i detta tillst�nd s� absurt att m�nga
av dom inte ens tror p� n�got mer �n vetenskap och materia, d� dom i princip
springer runt i Guds hand (jorden) och krigar och beter sig och br�kar framf�r
n�san p� Gud som g�ng p� g�ng �dmjukt ber alla om uppm�rksamhet f�r att bara f�
tala om f�r dom hur magnifika och villkorsl�st �lskade dom �r och att allt �r
OK. Jag f�r k�nslan av universum som ett stort medvetande. Guds medvetande.
Materien och den fysiska v�rlden �r bara en illusion! I detta tillst�nd k�nns
det som att jag vaknat upp ur en dr�m. Detta tillst�nd �r knivskarpt, starkt och
ljust i j�mf�relse med den fysiska verkligheten. Den fysiska verkligheten �r som
en MARDR�M i j�mf�relse. En DR�M om man ska j�mf�ra verklighetsgrad! Jag f�r
visioner av pr�ster och kyrkor k�nner att det inte har n�got med Gud att g�ra
alls! Dessa kl�der, symboler och byggnader �r egentligen helt oviktiga. Det
g�ller alla religioner. Gud har ingen religion! Jag f�rst�r att det finns en
gnutta Gud i alla religioner men att religioner �r �nedsmutsade� av m�nskliga
tankar och k�nslor. Inte heller finns det n�gon Dj�vul eller liknande. Det vore
absurt att tro att denna Gud jag nu upplevde skulle till�ta n�got s�dant som en
Dj�vul! Det �r ett m�nskligt p�fund inser jag. Inte heller finns det straff
eller dom i livet efter detta. Bara underbar k�rlek och ljus om vi bara till�ter
oss det! Jag f�r se vem Gud �r och det �r simpel och villkorsl�s k�rlek. Gud �r
inte komplicerad och k�nslor som vrede, svartsjuka, missunnsamhet,
tillr�ttavisning, straff, krav, regler, misst�nksamhet, och �som man b�ddar f�r
man ligga� tillh�r inte Guds v�sen. Jag f�r se att livet enbart g�r ut p� att
�lska allt och alla, fr�n atomer till bl�valar, helt utan villkor och r�dsla!
Det �r den simpla men underbara meningen och naturen med livet och Gud! Att bara
vara och att �lska. Inte minst sig sj�lv! Villkorsl�st! Men m�nniskor i den
fysiska verkligheten har sv�rt att acceptera detta och inte minst, inse att dom
�r v�rda all k�rlek i v�rlden. M�nniskor g�r d�rf�r livet kr�ngligt och sv�rt
med omv�gar och r�dsla! Gud �r alltid med oss, varenda sekund av v�ra liv,
fullkomligt engagerad och vi �r aldrig ensamma! Gud finns inom oss alla och
upplever och k�nner allt det vi k�nner i v�ra liv. Gud �r ett tillst�nd! K�rlek!
Varenda g�ng vi utf�r en k�rlekshandling mot en annan m�nniska s� �r det Gud som
verkar genom oss mot.. Gud!
Allt detta upplevde jag samtidigt.
Jag var sedan tillbaka i datorstolen f�rstummad.
Jag ville l�gga mig ner p� golvet med pannan mot golvet av v�rdnad f�r det jag
precis hade upplevt och k�nt, men avstod fr�n det d� jag inte ville riskera att
min brorson hade vaknat och d�refter kanske kommit in i rummet jag befann mig i
och funnit mig p� golvet, d� det kanske hade skr�mt honom.
Jag vet inte varf�r jag fick uppleva detta eftersom jag inte p� n�got s�tt var
n�ra d�den eller i n�got koma-liknande tillst�nd. Inte heller var jag p�verkad
av n�gon som helst substans och jag lider inte av n�gra psykiska sjukdomar som
kan spela spratt med hj�rnan. Dessutom var detta s� otroligt mycket verkligare
�n det vi upplever p� jorden i v�r vardag. Inom 2 �r efter upplevelsen f�rsvann
�ven sakta men s�kert min obotliga och kroniska sjukdom jag burit p� i n�gra �r.
K�rlek till er!

can�t describe when as I didn�t experience any time but I could say that it was
from when I lost the perception of my surroundings and my physical body.
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.)? Uncertain I

Did
you have any sense of altered space or time? Yes
I didn�t feel any time at all, instead, everything just �was�. Everything just
IS! Neither did I feel bound to a point in space-time but felt as I was one with

How
did you view the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it
happened: Experience
was definitely real The
experience felt profoundly more real and sharper than this reality we are in
when on this physical earth in our physical bodies. It was like waking up from a
dream! A few days afterwards I even felt a bit depressed and lost as I felt
alone in having received this knowledge, amongst all the people around me. Alone
amongst so many �sleeping� people! The only thing I wanted was to get �home to
god� and the love where I felt I belonged but this faded after a while and I
found my way back to the everyday world. 3 months later I got a daughter and
life continued in full speed. Today I have read about a lot of other similar
experiences and I recognize so much in them, which confirms the reality of my
experience even more.

Was the kind of experience difficult to express in words?
Yes
Det finns inga ord som ger upplevelse r�ttvisa. Inga ord har styrkan att
beskriva det jag upplevde och jag kan bara beskriva det begr�nsat och
metaforiskt. Det tillst�nd jag befann mig i kan ej f�rest�llas eller upplevas
med v�ra fysiska sinnen/hj�rna som vi anv�nder i denna fysiska verklighet. Jag
hade aldrig kunnat f�rest�lla mig n�got liknande innan denna upplevelse. Att
f�rklara den �r som att f�rklara hur en f�rg ser ut f�r en m�nniska som varit
blind sedan f�dseln.
At the time of this experience, was there an associated life threatening event?
No
At what time during the experience were you at your highest level of
consciousness and alertness?
Jag kan inte beskriva n�r d� jag inte upplevde n�gon tid. Men jag f�r v�l lov
att s�ga det var from d� jag tappade uppfattningen av min omgivning och av min
fysiska kropp.
How did your highest level of consciousness and alertness during the experience
compare to your normal every day consciousness and alertness?
More consciousness and alertness than normal
If your highest level of consciousness and alertness during the experience was
different from your normal every day consciousness and alertness, please
explain:

fysiska kropp.
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
Det jag upplevde var att �s�g� allt inifr�n. Som att jag var en del av allt. Jag
var medveten om allt snarare �n att jag s�g allt. Jag hade visioner av tr�d och
djur d�r jag kunde se och k�nna allt som fanns inuti dessa och hur dom var
uppbyggda. Det var verkligen knivskarpt! F�rger, konturer, allt var knivskarpt
och ljust och det var som om jag f�tt ett nytt v�ldigt kraftfullt sinne. Det var
inte visuellt. Jag snarare k�nde och var medveten om allt inom mig och det vi
ser med v�ra �gon i v�ra fysiska kroppar �r v�ldigt begr�nsat i j�mf�relse.
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.)?
Uncertain
Jag upplevde inga ljud alls. Det vore bara �verfl�digt d� jag var medveten om
allt. En medvetenhet som inte beh�ver ljud.
Did you experience a separation of your consciousness from your body?
Uncertain
What emotions did you feel during the experience?
Jag k�nde mig totalt fri, fridfull, o�ndligt �lskad. Jag hade inga r�dslor alls.
Jag kunde inte ens f�rest�lla mig den sm�rta, r�dsla, stress osv. som vi k�nner
dagligen i v�ra kroppar. Det var en vidunderlig frid och k�rlek jag k�nde �nda
in i mitt absolut innersta. Jag var som bortkopplad fr�n min kropp och dess
k�nslor, men s�g aldrig min kropp utifr�n. D�rf�r vet jag inte om jag faktiskt
l�mnade kroppen. Men fick en vision d�r jag r�rde mig in till min brors son som
jag var barnvakt �t, och str�k honom p� huvudet med en vidunderlig k�rlek inom
mig. Jag har inget minne av att jag s�g min hand d� jag gjorde detta. Jag hade
�ven visioner d�r jag befann mig ovanf�r h�ghuset d�r min bror bor.
Did you pass into or through a tunnel or enclosure?
No
Did you see a light?
Yes
Snarare �n att jag s�g ett
ljus s� k�nde jag och var medveten om ett fantastiskt ljus som tr�ngde igenom
mitt innersta. Ett andligt ljus.
Did you meet or see any other beings?
Yes
Jag s�g ingen varelse rent visuellt, jag kunde inte heller urskilja konturer av
n�gon �ljusvarelse� eller liknande. Jag k�nde snarare en n�rvaro som stormade
genom mitt innersta och denna n�rvaro kommunicerade till mig genom k�nslor. Inte
ord eller ens ord via telepati. Det var genom k�nslor som sade mer �n ord. Jag
upplevde det d� som Jesus eller Gud. Men k�nde efter�t att Gud �r ALLA. Inga
namn �uttalades� som identifierade n�rvaron. Det k�ndes snarare som om det var
universum som kommunicerade med mig, men jag v�ljer att s�ga Gud. Gud l�t mig
k�nna att han �lskade mig obeskrivligt mkt och att han alltid har varit med mig,
varenda sekund av mitt liv. Han l�t mig k�nna att han alltid talat till mig via
andra m�nniskor i min omgivning, genom internet, ja han kan kommunicera genom
precis allt som finns i skapelsen eftersom att han �R allt och han �r ett med
oss och vi m�nniskor �r ett med honom. Han finns i oss alla. Det var som att han
tog min hand och sade: �H�r �r jag, jag finns verkligen och jag �lskar dig s�
otroligt och jag har alltid varit med dig och kommer alltid vara med dig. Kom
ih�g det fr�n och med nu�.
Did you experience a review of past events in your life?
No
Did 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?
Uncertain
Jag hade �visioner� med natur, djur osv. d�r jag kunde se varenda liten �der
inuti alla v�xter och djur. Jag hade �visioner� d�r jag s�g jorden och
m�nskligheten, men kan inte svara p� om jag var i en annan dimension. Men det
k�ndes som att jag s�g det fysiska universum utifr�n en annan dimension som l�t
mig se att universum var Gud och andligt. Som ett stort medvetande snarare �n
materia. Materia �r som en illusion. Men jag gled aldrig in helt och h�llet i en
annan dimension som inte hade med detta universum att g�ra. jag k�nde snarare
som att jag faktiskt var universum och allt verkade s� logiskt!
Did you have any sense of altered space or time?
Yes
Jag k�nde inte av n�gon tid alls utan allt bara �var�. Allt bara �R! Jag k�nde
mig inte heller bunden till en punkt i rumtid, utan k�nde mig som att jag var
ett med allt och var medveten om precis det jag ville vara medveten om. En
droppe som �terf�renats med ett stort hav och blivit en del av dess helhet.
Did you have a sense of knowing special knowledge, universal order and/or
purpose?
Yes
Jag fick veta att Gud �r precis allt. Gud �r oss alla och verkar genom oss alla.
Han �r livet och existens i allm�nhet. Inget existerar �tskiljt fr�n Gud. Jag
fick veta att Gud enbart �r k�rlek, totalt okomplicerad och totalt utan villkor.
Gud �lskar precis allt som existerar och k�nslor som vrede, d�mande, krav,
straff, svartsjuka, tillr�ttavisning, misst�nksamhet, missunnsamhet,om och men,
finns inte i Guds v�sen alls! Jag f�rstod ox� att det inte finns n�gon ond
motpol till Gud, s�som �Satan� eller dj�vulen. Jag fick veta att livet p� jorden
g�r ut p� att �LSKA allt och alla i skapelsen inklusive sig sj�lv. Inget annat!
Det �r den enda simpla men s� underbara meningen med livet, men som �r s� sv�rt
att f�rst� f�r oss m�nniskor d� vi �r i v�ra kroppar. Vi m�nniskor g�r allt s�
komplicerat och vi kan inte k�nna oss v�rdiga den Gud faktiskt �r. M�nniskan
tror att det �r �f�r bra f�r att vara sant� och m�ste d�rf�r ta knepiga och
sv�ra omv�gar i livet vilket g�r det betydligt sv�rare �n det beh�ver vara. Jag
l�rde mig att v�ra religioner har en gnutta Gud i sig, men �r nedsmutsade av
m�nskliga tankar och k�nslor vilket g�r att m�nniskan missf�rst�r Gud och kan
bli r�dd i v�rsta fall. Det finns ingen �r�tt� v�g till Gud och ingen religion
har monopol p� Gud. Jag fick efter�t kunskap och exempel om hur m�nnskan kan
missuppfatta Gud. T.ex d�r Jesus s�ger att �du skall �lska din Gud och din
n�ste� s� tar m�nga m�nniskor det som ett krav eller villkor f�r Guds k�rlek d�
det snarare �r ett l�fte. N�mligen, d� du har sett Gud s� kan du inte g�ra annat
�n att �lska �honom� och din n�ste, d� man har f�tt uppleva hur underbar Gud
verkligen �r.
Did you reach a boundary or limiting physical structure?
No
Did you become aware of future events?
No
Did you have any psychic, paranormal or other special gifts following the
experience you did not have prior to the experience?
Yes
Jag kan efter upplevelsen �plocka fram� Gudomlig k�rlek f�r precis vem som
helst. �ven den mest avskydde m�nniskan. Jag har st�rre f�rst�else f�r andra
m�nniskor och d�rav �ven mer f�rl�tande. Jag ser inte allt svart p� vitt. Jag
kan framkalla k�rlek till mig sj�lv som k�nns som varma rysningar i hela min
kropp som k�nns helande b�de f�r sj�len och f�r min fysiska kropp. Jag kan �ven
tala n�gon form av tungom�l d�r jag �ven k�nner denna k�rlek och dessa rysningar
i kroppen, med en k�nsla av frid efter�t.
Have you shared this experience with others?
Yes
Jag ber�ttade om denna upplevelse f�rst och fr�mst samma dag p� kv�llen f�r en
kristen v�n som inte riktigt kunde f�rklara vad jag hade upplevt. Han trodde p�
mig och tyckte att det l�t fantastiskt. Jag ber�ttade det n�gra dagar senare f�r
2 utav mina 3 br�der samt min mamma. Alla hade sen tidigare n�gon mer eller
mindre stark tro p� att det finns n�n slags �Gud� eller h�gre krafter. Dom
trodde p� det jag sade men har sv�rt att ta in det. Vid vissa tillf�llen undrade
dom om jag kanske hade haft hallucinationer. Sedan dess s� verkar dom ha kunnat
sm�lta det jag ber�ttat och respekterar det. Jag har sedan dess f�tt n�gon slags
liten roll som andligt orakel och r�dgivare f�r vissa i familjen, �ven om jag
tycker det k�nns lite fjantigt att uttrycka det s� haha. Jag ber�ttade �ven om
upplevelsen f�r min pappa dagen efter upplevelsen. Han �r ju ett Jehovas vittne
och verkade intresserad av det som h�nt och tyckte det l�t fantastiskt, men
varnade mig f�r att �Satan kan visa sig i ljusets skepnad� och vilseleda
m�nniskor p� det h�r viset. Men jag visste att det inte var p� det viset, Jag
var ju �vertygad om att n�gon Satan inte ens existerar! Han fr�gade inte mer om
det, men en tid efter�t ifr�gasatte jag ofta hans och Jehovas vittnens, enligt
mig, k�rleksl�sa tro (d� det tog lite tid f�r mig att v�ga sl�ppa taget om
kristendomen) och heta diskussioner uppstod varje g�ng tills jag ins�g att det
inte �r n�gon id� att br�ka om det. Jag l�rde mig snabbt att deras tro inte �r
mitt problem och att man inte ska sl�sa energi p� s�nt. Jag anser att alla f�r
tro p� vad dom vill om det g�r dom lyckliga. �ven om det INTE g�r dom lyckliga.
Jag k�nner idag att det b�sta �r att leva sitt liv i villkorsl�s k�rlek mot
alla, oavsett tro och bakgrund, och d�rmed g�ra ett fint exempel av sitt liv.
Det �r sv�rt f�r m�nniskan att inse hur villkorsl�st k�rleksfull Gud verkligen
�r, om man inte sj�lv f�tt uppleva det som jag och tusentals andra m�nniskor
upplevt p� detta h�gst ��vernaturliga� s�tt.
Did you have any knowledge of near death experience (NDE) prior to your
experience?
Yes
Jag hade l�st lite om det p� internet, men snabbt blivit skr�md av dom d� jag
samtidigt kunde l�sa p� kristna forum om detta fenomen d�r man varnade just f�r
�Satan i ljusets skepnad�. Jag h�ll mig undan fr�n det, pga eventuella
konsekvenser och av r�dsla f�r Gud. Men jag k�nde fortfarande en dragning och
intresse f�r fenomenet d� Gud verkade s� underbar utifr�n vad jag hade l�st om
NDUs
How did you view the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it
happened:
Experience was definitely real
Upplevelsen k�ndes betydligt verkligare och skarpare �n denna
verklighet vi befinner oss i p� denna fysiska jord i v�ra fysiska kroppar. Som
att vakna upp ur en dr�m! N�gra dagar efter�t var jag t.o.m lite deprimerad och
vilsen d� jag k�nde mig ensam om att f�tt ta emot denna nya omskakande vetskap,
bland alla m�nniskor jag k�nde. Ensam bland massa �sovande� m�nniskor! Jag ville
bara tillbaka �hem till Gud� och k�rleken d�r jag k�nde att jag h�rde hemma. Men
det sl�ppte efter ett tag och jag hittade tillbaka till vardagen, och ca 3 m�n
senare fick jag en dotter och livet fortsatte i full fart. Idag har jag l�st
massor om m�nga andra liknande upplevelser och k�nner igen mig s� mkt i dom,
vilket bekr�ftar dess verklighet ytterligare f�r mig!
Were there one or several parts of the experience especially meaningful or
significant to you?
Det som betydde mest f�r mig och som har �ndrat min syn p� livet, �r
d� jag fick veta att jag �r s� otroligt �lskad precis f�r den jag �r och att jag
aldrig beh�ver k�nna mig r�dd f�r Gud. Av allt som finns att frukta i v�rlden s�
tillh�r inte Gud detta allt. Jag k�nde mig s� otroligt l�ttad och upprymd �ver
detta och av vetskapen om att jag aldrig egentligen �r ensam! Jag hade k�nt mig
ensam och of�rst�dd genom hela mitt liv fram till denna upplevelse.
How do you currently view the reality of your experience:
Experience was definitely real
Jag har vuxit rej�lt andligen under dom tv� �r som passerat och
f�rst�r mer och mer att allt verkligen fungerar som jag f�rstod i upplevelsen.
Sen det faktum att jag k�nner igen mig s� v�l i andra m�nniskors liknande
upplevelser, bekr�ftar ytterligare att det jag upplevde verkligen h�nde. �ven om
det fortfarande idag k�nns som en v�ldigt m�rklig och omskakande upplevelse!
Have your relationships changed specifically as a result of your experience?
Yes
Jag har f�r�ndrats mkt som
m�nniska och f�tt andra prioriteringar och intressen i livet. mitt destruktiva
leverne avtog snabbt och jag k�nner inte l�ngre intresse av att umg�s med en
vissa gamla v�nner d� jag idag inte k�nner att jag har n�got gemensamt med dom
l�ngre. v�nner har f�rsvunnit och nya har dykt upp!
Have your religious beliefs/practices changed specifically as a result of your
experience?
Yes
Jag �r inte l�ngre religi�s. Jag �r andlig och liberal och har en personlig
relation till Gud och det andliga. Jag k�nner inom mig vad som �r r�tt f�r mig.
Det finns vissa �gobitar� i alla religioner men jag �r inte f�st vid n�gon av
dom. Jag �r mer intresserad av vad andra �NDUare� ber�ttar om sina upplevelser.
Following the experience, have you had any other events in your life,
medications or substances which reproduced any part of the experience?
No
Did the questions asked and information you provided so far accurately and
comprehensively describe your experience?
Yes
Just nu �r jag n�jd med det jag har sagt. Sen kommer det s�kert dyka upp mer jag
vill dela med mig av eftersom jag k�nner att jag v�xer i rasande takt rent
andligt och l�r mig mer och mer av livet!
Are there any other questions we could ask to help you communicate your
experience?
Jag tycker att ni har gjort ett bra jobb!
