This blog is more than an account of Near Death Experiences. It ponders in detail the tough questions of life. Who are you, and why are you here in this physical world? What happens when you die, and is there a judgment? However, most anything could appear here. This is not a news blog, archived posts are just as relevant as new posts.

In the silence
To be still and hear
the calling of my soul
To be touched by the light
that infuses my body
with life
Light that gives me strength
as I allow myself
to tap into a knowing of truth
In silence I can hear
the quiet whisper
of love itself
I can hear
the laughter of joy
as it encourages me
to open myself
ever so gently to touch
the heart of another
In silence I can hear
the message from my own heart
beating in time
giving the breath of life
that makes way for energy,
movement and expansion
of my truest Self
A Self that is embraced,
honored and loved
Living in faith
Surrounded by hope
Protected by the light in fact,
the essence of what is
It is in the silence of my soul that
I am able to fully connect to the divine light
That lives within,
shines through and connects us all…
Can we know that we will live after the death of our bodies. Current research indicates that we will continue to live after death. Knowing this, what will you do with the rest of your life?
The idea that conscious awareness can exist after death, generally referred to as the ‘soul’, has been inherent in Eastern and Western religions for thousands of years. In addition to spiritual accounts, innumerable subjective reports of conscious awareness seemingly separated from the subject’s brain and physical body occur in conjunction with so-called near death experiences (NDEs) in patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest (1,2). Such patients describe remarkably consistent phenomenology including a white light, being in a tunnel, serenity, deceased loved ones, life review and, in some cases, floating out of the body (out-of-body experiences – OBEs). Comparable experiences have been reported in various types of meditative and altered states, traumatic psychological events, or seemingly without cause. A Gallup poll estimated some 10 million Americans have reported NDEs/OBEs…..
