Joe W Experience  5/11/2013 And suddenly I had a birds eye view of the Giza Plateau. Empty and bare. Like watching a movie in fast forward I saw not only how they were built from the 1st stone to completion but the reasoning as well as the the tools. Every minute detail was *explained. This seemed to only take a second to comprehend. I felt a some disappointment. No flying saucers. No great revelation. Just a group of people doing there job. "How mundane I thought"  "I told you" my Guide said.
Remarkable STE with deep spiritual insights.

Bonnie L Experience  5/11/2013 The dull slow moving lights had to come to terms with what they feared judgment on, before moving forward faster.  But no one ever completely stops. Absolutely everyone returns to source. They stressed EVERYONE. Some sooner than others - They also told me what was going to happen when everyone returned to source, but I forget that now - I also know what source is but it it is hard to explain. It is not a god separate from us or one that created us more like we are fragments of it - everything is.
Remarkably detailed STE with spiritual insights.

David M Experience  5/5/2013  When I started to become conscious I explained to boss that I was in a Lancaster bomber crash.  I correctly described the instrument panel of a Lancaster bomber correctly.  My boss has flown as a navigator in Lancaster bombers in the Second World War.  I had never seen the inside of a Lancaster bomber.
Upon regaining consciousness from a car accident, stated he was in a Lancaster bomber crash and correctly described the instrument panel of the bomber that he had never seen.

Jessica P Experiences  5/5/13 I will have moments, where I start to feel like I'm watching a movie. Though, what I am doing is the movie. Almost an out of body experience. I am fully aware of what I am doing, however, I feel that I am watching myself do it. I feel like I can't remember what I was doing, who is around, or what I am supposed to do. Almost like my brain/memory is completely paralyzed. Even if I am doing things, such as cooking supper or driving a car. It's hard for me to recall what I was doing after the time of an 'occurrence', but I feel I was in a dream when I try and remember what I was doing. But when I am having an occurrence, I am fully aware that I am having one, but I feel like I'm in a movie. Some times I get scared during an occurrence. And after one, I almost feel depressed because I have had one. Like I missed some part of my life.
SOBEs, probably autoscopic experiences.

Bar Experience  5/5/13 I would come out and fly around room and go find mom and dad and fly around them or I would watch TV show wasn't supposed to see later to see things that hadn't happened yet  it was like watching the day happen and then picking one moment to focus on and be a part of… watched episode of twilight zone above mom and dad and then told mom about it next day and what it was about.
Multiple OBEs as a child age 3-6.

Sevilla L Experience  5/5/13 I was told I was being given a gift and I was suddenly plunged into The Sea of Eternity; the purest most powerful love beyond all imagining, it was the essence of everything. I was at once one with everything that had been and everything that would be in an instant. I was infinitely connected to everything without separation while still having an individual consciousness. This space of infinity was like being the the middle of every firework that had ever gone off all in once beautiful blaze of unspeakable brilliance. The color so fantastical, earthly eyes have never seen the colors that existed there. Energy made of pure love was winding around in a massive whirling  energy that threw me into complete ecstasy.  It was so loud that it penetrated everything - but the sound itself was pure love and ecstasy.  A circular flow of energy and lights dazzling beyond description.
OBE with powerful messages of love and reassurance.

Benzila E Experience  4/28/13  From Nigeria. As I went up I also saw our the little thatched house then the compound, the village,  the nearby villages. Then I stopped in mid air and came back with the same speed incredible speed and crashed into my body and jumped up and stood up.  I was filled with this unspeakable joy and happiness .I  tried waking up my younger brother to tell him God has visited me but he was deep asleep. so I waited till morning and then informed the preacher of my experience, he was quite and then he said fear not you shall not die .I was shocked, but then I said to him pastor ,If that was death then death is sweet.
OBE from Nigeria.

Judy L Father Experience  4/28/2013  Then just as quickly as Dad had fallen to the floor, he all of a sudden got up from the floor. Dad told me he had been in heaven, outside a garden wall talking to Jesus. He said that Jesus told him that He was sending him back and to tell everyone about Him and that He was coming very soon.
Father’s experience shared that happened when she was 10-11 years old.

Mary D Experience  4/28/2013  I could only describe as a soft but roaring voice told me "it was of God." I could not talk or move. Time stopped. As this light appeared I felt this "love." A love not of this Earth. I have never had this feeling before nor have I had it since. I was told, in my mind, that this light knew every thought that I had ever had and was capable of remembering "all" of them. I couldn't even do that. Then, from right to left, almost like the stock exchange tape reading we see on TV, I was told that "Everything I perceived to be bad that had ever happened to me including being with this man was so that I could help others." The whole time I was being given this message I was enveloped in a "love" that I have never known and is not of this earth.
Remarkable prayer experience at time of criminal attack.

Lissa C Experience 4/28/13  I especially felt the green at the last before I entered into the white vibrant light. I looked into the green and I saw grass, trees, and beautiful surroundings before I focused again on the white light. I kept moving foreword, because I was beckoned to keep on moving forward to this loving light. When I approached the light there was a very nice being right at the tip of the light who asked me " Would you like to come in?"  At first I said Yes. The being I'm going to say "He" ... although.... I don't think he was a male or a female..... "He" was  "both" ... just a "loving" being....  At first I wanted to enter like nothing more I ever wanted in my entire life...... Then, I suddenly remembered my son....
Meditation experience.  Quite NDE-like.

Dee D Experience  4/28/13 I noticed a scene far below, so I knew I was high above in the night sky.  I saw what I thought was my prostate form lying on the ground and a person in great distress over me.  I was filled with a feeling of compassion and wanted to go to that person and tell him not to worry- I was in a blissful state.  As I got distracted trying to move myself, I noticed lights below - a convoy of vehicles and as I noticed the lights, I was pulled towards them, much like a light beam. I arrived as the convoy parked next to a building and a van opened and 2 men brought out a gurney with what I thought was my body.  I could hear their voices and thought, "Great, I am going to learn what is happening. 
Remarkable OBE with precognitive awareness of son’s death that night.

Frances S Experience  4/20/2013 From Canada.  I was very ill I had inflammation around my heart and my muscles were very week, the doctor thought I had Coxsackie virus,, I am not sure of that spelling,  I had been having unusual experiences, I thought I heard people in the house and someone cooking in the kitchen when no one was there. I was alone in the guest bedroom because I didn't want to disturb my husband with the restlessness that I was experiencing, I wasn't sleeping well. I felt myself slipping away when I saw a black tunnel, I thought I was going to die, when I heard a voice in my head say "the darkest hour is before the dawn."  I knew at that moment I was going to recover, obviously I didn't die and I started to feel I would get over this dark time I was going through. It took a long time but I did recover, I had to take myself out of a negative life style and get away from my husband who was being very negative with me… I felt that the information given to me was coming from a place of knowing that wanted to comfort me because I was afraid I was going to die.
STE at time she thought she would die.

Christopher M Mother's Experience  4/20/13  My Mother was taking care of a 96 year old man that was my Grandma's neighbor. He had been in the convalescent home and had come out to live in his house again. He needed help with his taxes and other things. My mom took on the job to watch him close to 24 hours a day. One night my mom was watching him and all the sudden he started to breath heavy and my mom knew he was dying, so my mom held his hand and told him it's all right to go everyone's going to be ok. So within about 10 minutes he died. When he died my mom saw a bright green light leave his body float above him and then disappear. She believes it was his spirit leaving his body at death… at the beginning my mother was a little scared to be with Harold when he died but she said after it happened she was overwhelmed and that death is a beautiful thing and that there's nothing to fear.
Son describes mother’s shared death experience when she was with neighbor who died.

Susan R Experience 4/14/13  After playing in the river for whatever time I did, a strong white light came onto me and I was transported to "heaven" or what I DO KNOW is HOME. There was a cloaked spirit leading me through the most wondrous (again, no earthly words to describe) crystal palace with angels I did not see but heard, singing and I knew it was the music of the spheres. This knowledge came to me along with the knowledge that we make all of our decisions ALL of the time, free will .  I had chosen my childhood horrors and needed to heal and change for my children, not leave them.  As this and so much more knowledge was imploding me, it was the same as a veil being lifted,   my memories of this place and this knowledge was coming back.
Remarkable SOBE which was very NDE-like while contemplating suicide.

Armando Experience  4/14/2013 From Brazil. They glowed with the same intensity that I glowed, but I felt there was a hierarchy, not a submission type hierarchy, but a hierarchy of purification or similar. There was also a light that glowed stronger than all and I could feel it was God. He was a little farther away than the entities around me, and approaching slowly and gradually.  Once I got there the first thing I felt is that love was everywhere. Love was everything. A feeling of happiness that words fail to describe. There is no way to explain the intensity of these feelings because there are no parameters for comparison.  Time no longer existed, I'm not saying that time had stopped or was going faster than normal, time just did not exist anymore.
STE from Brazil in English language.

Cary S Experience 4/14/13 I floated around my apartment about 2-3 ft. from the floor. I looked around my apartment for a few minutes and suddenly I could hear a car pass by on the street outside (through my physical ear). When I heard that car, this spirit body (or whatever you want to call it) dashed quickly through the wall of my apartment and outside. I saw a small four door white car drive by. Then I looked at the sky. It was the brightest, most beautiful blue I had ever seen. I looked at the grass. It was the same, but bright green. It was so bright and glowing. It was like I had stepped into a painting… I noticed the next day that one of my neighbors had a four door white car. I had never noticed them having that car before.
OBE associated with meditation.

Sharon B Experience 4/7/13 I went to pick up my boyfriend for a picnic. I took one puff of pot and sat in his living room waiting for him to get ready to go outside. All of a sudden I realized I was looking down on my body. I felt I was floating above my body, still connected to it but in a place of incredible peace and love. The love was totally overwhelming and changed my life forever. It felt as if I was out for @ 20 minutes but it turned out to be just a few, maybe 5 minutes or so only… The overwhelming feeling of LOVE which still permeates my daily life.
SOBE which was very life changing.

Monte Y Experience 4/7/13   Everything was slightly up from us but not far away or close it was total peace , love, exciting and calm at the same time.. no fear of any kind.  I felt like a kid who had just arrived at the most wonderful amusement park in the cosmos...we were not standing on ground (dirt) BUT WE WERE IN KIND OF A ROW STANDING ON SOMETHING I was on the extreme right of the others . I had on a white gown with my feet and hands exposed.  So did the others . I noticed they all had there jaws hanging open (shock) and I felt mine and it was open in awe also, I laughed. I thought we must all have just died at the same time on earth it seemed perfectly logical since people die every second.
SOBE while singing in a group.

Olavi H Experience  4/7/2013  From Sweden.  Instantly I felt as if I was floating around in the cave. It was not as if had left my body. Instead, it felt as if my body had been dissolved. There was no longer any separation between me and the rest of the world. I felt incredibly peaceful and happy.… The next day I went with my friends to see Gangadass Babaji. On the way to his ashram, I looked for the yogi and his cave, but I could not find him. I could only see wilderness, rocks and mountain tops… One could say that I was miraculously saved by divine grace, or by an angel.
Mystical experience.  Was saved by several people in a cave in the Himalaya mountains, but the cave an people were not found the next day.

Jo F Experience 4/7/13 I extended my whole arm out and felt nothing I remember thing "Oh my God", "Oh my God" I just went with it. I did not turn instead I looked at the reflection to the sides of me at the bedroom behind me and it was soooo far away everything was happening in like slow motion I made no fast or sudden moves of any kind I continued a little further and just seen darkness not that I couldn't see I could but there was nothing immediately in front for or as long as I could see it was almost like a void I really wanted to go further..
SOBE with interesting venture into a mirror.

Gina R Experience  3/31/2013  One night while I was "sleeping" a being of light came to me. I saw the entire room light up and I knew something was different. A light being approached me and picked me up off the bed and hugged me. The feeling was indescribable; unconditional love and information was exchanged without speaking. The being told me to "take care of my family and everything will be alright". After what seemed like a long period of time, the being moved back across the room. I could still see the light, and I asked if "it" was still here. The being replayed," I will always be with you, just take care of your family".
Entity encounter at time of need with a profound message of hope.  Also a mystical blissful experience.

Brad N Experience  12/21/11 & 3/26/13 Roughly 5km up the Highway on a bend I noticed some cars on the side of the road, but didn't think much of it.  As we got a little further around I got a thought which was "turn your head", I looked back past the (B) Pillar to my right  down a deep embankment to see a car crashed into a a large tree and a lot of People around  the incident, I told the wife that I have to turn around while the wife was arguing with me that there was nothing there. I got out of the car and  went to the edge of the cliff, were I saw the accident. Interesting intuitive experience.  Before I came back to Earth this time, I have a memory of being in a building that looked like it was made out of white marble. The building was huge and I remember that when I was in side this massive foyer-looking room, that I was taken to a marble book stand/podium where there was a large very thick heavy book sitting on top of the stand. This Book was the feature of the whole room.  Two  Guides, which I know to be Angels, took me up close to the Book and explained about the book to me.  They said that this book contains all the written wisdom of ALL LIFE. I noticed that the books pages turned with out any hands touching it. It was like the book itself was alive. Pre-existence memories.

Phuong T Experience 3/23/13 I had previously had several suicide attempts before this one, but this time I had a specific memory in which resulted in the last time I would attempted to commit suicide to date. I took like a handful of sleeping pills after I put my children to sleep. My youngest was only 5 months old at the time. I started hearing my daughter voice crying and tried to wake up to hold her. My hand went through her body, suddenly I saw a bright light and pray toward the light that please help me my daughter need me right now I will never attempt to kill myself again if you help me.
Probable OBE vs Possible NDE due to suicide attempt.

Simon G Experience 3/23/13  Instantly the scenery changed and I was in a cave that opened up to what seemed to be miles above a huge pit of glowing fire and tortured souls. The feeling of absolute misery filled me. I asked her if this was hell. No, she replied. There is no preformed hell waiting for anyone. People who thought they should go to hell for their deeds would if they believed it. The same applied for those who believed they would go to heaven.  She then began to explain the paradox of what I was seeing. Even though there was no heaven or hell awaiting anyone, we could create our own through our beliefs and expectations.
OBE Into beautiful realm, and was shown hellish realm.

Hunter R Experience 3/23/13 Then, a velvet/burgundy sheet-like plane could be seen to my side, and it began to make sine wave like patterns.  Once again it was vast and everywhere I looked I saw it. The sheet-like plane was within my own body, and was giving me a sensation of warmness, and complete bliss. In that moment I realized what true bliss felt like, and how truly connected I was with the universe. After awhile in this state of bliss, I could start to faintly hear my heart beat, as if it was calling me back to my body, so I began to feel a sensation of floating down, back into this reality, and eventually into my body. I could literally feel myself reentering my body, I felt like a feather falling from the sky.
Meditation experience with interesting content and insights.

Shirin S Experience  3/23/2013 A second later, while I was waiting for him to say something, a familiar-seeming presence whom I couldn't place, intruded into my mind, and gave both of us a highly amused, and very searching glance.  The man in the white robes immediately turned around and started running back, looking equally joyful, and I found myself caught backwards down that tunnel faster than I had come, and whooshed back in my body. We all collapsed backwards on our heels, and the friend who had been praying in tongues; had said she wanted tongues. and had thought prophecy was the greatest gift said, "What happened? That was amazing!  What did I say?"  The only person who had understood the language was the third person, the one whom we had prayed over first, and who hadn't been there when we were talking about gifts before hand. She didn't remember all of it, but she said that the other person had said "My people will speak in tongues not their own...Thou, child, will have the gift of healing." 
Remarkable prayer experience that latter led to incredible understanding and forgiveness.  Contributor is a physician.

Crystal M Experiences 3/1813 So the first event was in Peru at an ayahuasca retreat, we were on dieta which means no salt sugar or oil and very plain foods, usually white. I didn't take ayahuasca and I was just meditating and I nearly touched the ceiling while floating I was scarred and tensed up and came back to my body. There was a deep sucking sound while floating up. I felt numb and cold when I got down. I did a breathing exercise to initiate that state. Breathe into each body part and feel it sink 3 rounds of this to float away.   Second experience, on ayahuasca and dieta night time. Vomiting. Shut eyes and see kaleidoscope world with dancing Buddhas thousands moving, some stepping in a circular dance… In the same OBE I have sex with my ex bf he acts towards me as I had acted towards him near the end of the relationship.
Several OBEs.  One associated with consuming ayahuasca.

Susan M Experience  3/14/13  There was nothing left untouched by her love for me. Every worry, fear, even thought vanished.  Her eyes were so very kind and gentle.  She was very close to me and reached over and touched my face with her hand, brushing my hair back, just as I had done many times to my own children when they were sick.  I physically felt her touch my forehead and the sides of my face even though it was a slight, tender touch.  Her message was very short.  She told me that she was there to heal me and not to be afraid; that I was not alone and I would not get anything wrong.
Loving entity encounter at time of illness.  Profound encounter.

Hannah P Experience 3/14/13 From Australia.  Automatically I directed my focus towards each person sitting on their chair, and large balls of fire blew out of my stomach like cannon balls and covered each person in light. This happened for all the people present, after which I draw my consciousness back into myself.  Even no words were spoken; there seemed to be some form of communication between me and the Light Being. We were still standing joined at the hands, when all of a sudden I knew it was time to depart. We moved slowly away from each other, and I became aware of the tunnel behind me. I stepped into it...somehow entered my lifeless body and made my way up the passageway into the cave.
Very detailed meditation experience.

Raymond W Experience 3/14/13  From Ireland.  It grew stronger and I found myself enveloped in and floating in a proverbial sea of Love. At one point I thought “was in total bliss and the thought came “I could stay her for eternity, and I really meant it. Here I was in a void the space with absolutely nothing and I needed nothing else for eternity, enveloped in the most blissful completely fulfilled state one could ever imagine. I understood that this was the basis and source and goal of creation and there was nothing else. This for all intents and purposes was the creator, vast beyond measure, timeless and totally complete, absolutely ‘everything else just faded into insignificance.
Profound meditation experience with remarkable similarity to many NDE accounts.

Lanie Experience 3/14/13  I slowly began floating upward and was completely mid air looking down at myself in my bed.  Every detail in my room and on myself was completely accurate.  From my pj's, to the position I fell asleep in, the placement of my tablet beside my pillow prior to falling asleep - everything!  The only difference I found in my room was the location of my bedroom door.  Once reality hit that I was experiencing an out of body experience, I was overcome by fear.  I began to hear music in the distance and started to panic.  It was a song I had never heard before but the genre was definately classical.  I started to look around and noticed that everything had darkened.  I did not feel that there was anything in particular causing a threat to me but I couldn't control feeling very uneasy.
OBE dream with encounter with frightening entity.

Lisa D's Mother's Experience  3/14/2013  Then mom let Lee Ann know that her son was there, and that he was okay, and that she’d be there soon taking care of  him.  Lee Ann had lost her son at the age of two.  Mom never knew Lee Ann’s son, but she had seen a little boy crying in the hallway, then he’d come around in the hallway just outside her room and had been peeping around the doors at mom for about 4-5 days before this divine revelation.  Once mom had told us it was a little boy, then later when we asked again she said he’s good.  Another time she said, “He’s an angel.”  We now knew it was Lee Ann little boy helping mom make her transition from earth to heaven. 
Deathbed vision of mother who was dying of pancreas cancer.

Lesley A Experiences 3/14/13  From the UK.  At that point the pain began to quickly recede and I felt a strange tingly sensation and my immediate thought was 'I'm dying, I know exactly what's happening.' I didn't feel scared but felt really sad that I couldn't say goodbye to my sister and parents. Suddenly I felt myself shift and drop down and forwards out of my body. I found myself floating in a dark tunnel, moving towards a bright light. Suddenly a voice came from no where but I knew it was authority. It said ""Go back, you are not ready to die yet, Lesley."" As soon as I heard those words I felt as though I was being sucked backwards. I felt an uncomfortable jolt, opened my eyes and was back in bed.
SOBE at age 15.

Nancy S Experience 3/2/13 I knelt down and felt great love, compassion, charity, beauty and glory. All the group and myself were praising the lord and singing or saying praise god in the highest and forever more. it has been the greatest experience of my life to be there in this holy place and be forever praising the lord. I will never fear death again, as I now know where my home in heaven will be. In that holy place (asleep in heaven) all earthly time and concerns had disappeared and I wanted to stay there forever. all my earthly problems, concerns and worries evaporated and for the first time in my life felt utter peace and contentment.
SOBE at time of depression.  NDE-like.

Eduardo B Experience  3/2/2013 Suddenly those words were embedded in every level of my existence, my energy was now infused with the certainty of happiness, health, wisdom and love.  Next thing I remember is entering a vortex being pulled back by those lights and gaining consciousness back inside my body, thou I still couldn't move or even open my eyes. The nurses were washing my hair and I came back as they dropped my head unto the pillow. The pain and all the sensations of this world came back. My body hurt, I was in much pain, couldn't breath, couldn't move. I felt heavy and shocked.... but I knew that I was going to get well very quick and powerful enough to transform my body and my life. A certainty that lives within me now everyday of my new life.
STE associated with illness.

Shaye A Experience  3/2/13 I recognized her as the disembodied spirit of someone recently passed (unwilling or unable to move on) that was desperately in search of a vehicle (body) to "get back to life" in. I quickly registered that I was in danger...when she pounced! Like an animal, in a FLASH she was at my bedside, violently attacking and wrestling my spiritual body - for possession of my physical one! I lost the ability to visibly see her, but had a steady grip on her, squeezing her upper arm to forcibly hold her back, and I could feel her flesh beneath my touch: eerily real, distinctly human, and seemingly very much alive. We fought and wrestled (soul to soul) for several long, fearful moments, until she either tired or surrendered, or was forced to give up. Just as quickly as it started, it was over. I was immediately wide awake, albeit shaken, feeling quite indignant - violated, even!
Unusual dream involving attack by entity to possess his body.

Richard W Experience  2/25/2013 I could see a throne and on it sat one that I know was God (by the way I never saw his face). He never spoke a word to me but he would point to his left and to his right and the area where he pointed would light up like a movie screen. As the area would illuminate images would scroll by at a speed that was too fast to see with one's natural eye (but I now know that every image was imprinted in my mind). As I was standing there in disbelief it seemed as if God knew my thoughts. This is when he spoke to me and let me know, "so that you will know it's me, your friend ________ that cannot have anymore children will have a baby girl”. In 1976 my friend and her husband gave birth to a baby girl.
STE with remarkable encounter with God.  Given information to verify reality of experience.

Connie V Experience  2/25/2013 Suddenly I heard the following: do not fear I am with you. It was a strong voice within me, I can not explain, it appeared as mail voice but I am not sure. At the same moment I heard this voice, the whole parking area became illuminated with light, not a light that I can explain, but from hundreds of cars I saw my car in an instant. In the past I had to look for my car for a while, but not this time. A total peace overcame me, I can not explain, all the fear was gone, I felt comfort and peace within me.
STE during moment of fear that was reassuring.

Suzanne C Experience  2/25/2013 I was instantly consumed with the feeling of love, peace, joy, and just being overwhelmed with goodness.  The ascent in the palm seemed to last for about 15 to 20 seconds, all the while hearing the whooshing sound going up, and my time being there, overwhelmed with joy seemed to be about the same.… I will say, I think this happened because the Lord wanted to give me peace about my coming death from my COPD, as well as, my husbands coming death.  He has had advanced prostate cancer for three years and hormone refractory now for nine months.  I think the Lord showed me and gave me a sense of peace to not be afraid when these things happen.
STE during dream.

Lorraine R Experiences 2/16/13  I even have what I call "trigger" sensations while in the hypnogogic state, I recognized the sensations and am usually able to leave my body at will.  Interestingly though, several years ago around 2002/2003 I went through a phase of a span of about 2 to 3 years of having intense OBEs multiple times a week, and sometimes multiple times per night.  But over the years and currently they have become less frequent (or my awareness of them have decreased).  It's almost like I "been there, did that" kind of thing, almost as if I needed to have those experiences at that time in my life.  I accept and embrace the OBE experience for what it is, very real to me and a life/belief changing experience.
Multiple OBEs dreams over decades since the age of 5.

Allison G Experience  2/16/2013  During the weekend, we were not allowed to speak.  We wrote, but did not share and were guided in the writing exercises to consider our present life, then to write about past events and then to write about a specific time in our past. We then picked a spiritual figure from the past time, imagined going down deep in a well and finally meeting that spiritual figure at an underground stream.  At that time I transitioned into an alternate state of consciousness in which I understood complete love and acceptance, a sense of oneness, no such thing as time, no judgement.  Everything and everyone was interconnected.  When I came back to awareness, tears were streaming down my face because of the power of love.  It was intense and beautiful.
Mystical experience during a planned journal writing weekend.

Veronica G Experience 2/16/13  Me and my sister both exclaimed how it was actually fun! It was enjoyable because we felt so weightless yet just floating around and swooping and swaying, all while staying on my back position. Never did I ever have any anxiety, fear, or sadness. After some moments I remembering thinking "I have no physical body, so how is it that I can see??" and "Ok, I am now going to try to control where I want to go" because up to that point, I didn't have control. So I set my mind to it. And when I wanted to move right, I concentrated and I did. And it became easier. I remember seeing the light switch by the door and putting my mind to float towards it, and I did. I wanted to go past the threshold, but I could not.
SOBE at age 17.  Sister apparently had same experience.

Jeanne R Experience 2/16/13  This consciousness seemed to have long been a part of 'me' because (I somehow knew or sensed) she was familiar with me; my impression was that she had long resided either within me or adjacent to me.  Her attitude toward me was not overtly compassionate, nor was it hostile or indifferent.  I heard her saying, as she contemplated me across the room, that "she is really a mess" or "she is really in a mess." This thought did not disturb this other consciousness; she seemed to take it in stride, without alarm, conveying to 'me' that things were not really so dire.
Remarkable SOBE involving seeing her body from the OBE perspective of two different consciousnesses.  Shared 50 years after experience. 

Saul R Experience  2/16/13  From Australia.  Three days prior I had been in hospital where my pulse rate dropped to 30-36 beat per min. I was discharged without treatment.  I was asleep and about 2.30am I felt a massive hit in my chest. It woke me up with a fright and I sat up in bed startled. At the end of my bed stood what only can be described as a ghostly figure shrouded in bright light. I can only describe the figure now as what I have seen of statues of the Virgin Mary. However I cannot say for sure if it was her apparition. The experience lasted for about two minutes.  I felt at peace and lay down and went back to sleep. The next day I was admitted to hospital and from there I was taken by Air ambulance 400 mile to Melbourne where I had a "Stent" inserted immediately.
Entity encounter associated with apparent severe coronary artery disease.

Antoine L Experience  2/16/2013 For some time, the being let me bathe in its light. I felt like the power and warmth of this love was infinite. Like it could do miracles. After a moment, the angel started talking in a feminine voice. The voice was very loud, but also very sweet and motherly.  It was short. I think I forgot some parts of what she said, but a sentence sticks out, that I remember distinctly : "Don't worry. God is working right now, in ways that go far beyond your understanding. Everything will be fine."… the angel made me feel that love had power beyond anything I could ever imagine.
STE in dream with powerful message of reassurance.

Sean Experience  2/16/13  I remember sitting up in my bed and looking back over towards the wall at the head of my bed just to the right and I saw a shimmering golden light orb hovering about 5 feet about the floor, I remember just sitting there looking at it and having a feeling that it was looking back at me. It was about the size of a basket ball and the golden light was streaming inward from the outer edge towards the center of the orb. It was very odd I had the feeling of making eye contact with it and then suddenly it it just disappeared, the outer edges of the orb just grew smaller towards the center until it was go. I remember feeling really good, so at peace and relaxed.
Orb encounter in bedroom.

Patrick G Experience  2/9/2013 The soul, or our consciousness, is in all things and *is* all things. I wasn't seeing, so much as *being* what it was that I wanted to perceive. If I wanted to look at a pine tree, I wasn't actually ""seeing"" the pine tree, I *was* or *became* the pine tree from whatever perspective I chose to ""see"" it. I could see it as a tree or at the molecular level. Since *I* was also the tree, there was no limitation as concerns my ability to ""perceive"" or ""know"" the tree. In fact, this is a better way of putting it. The soul (or the nub of consciousness that we become once we leave our bodies) doesn't ""see"" things -- we ""know"" things. If we want to see a pine tree, we ""know"" it. We don't see it. Concepts like ""near"" or ""far"" are meaningless to the ""soul"" because we are one with all things and all things are one with us. We see things distant with the same perfect clarity as the things that are nearby because there is no such thing as near or far.
Profound STE while “asleep” at age 11.

Jane F Experience  2/9/2013  I am a sphere, a bubble, maybe 6 feet across, and my outer shell is made of light.  That is my only body.  There’s nothing in the bubble, just my awareness.  It is completely quiet and tranquil.  I have arisen from what I perceive to be an almost invisible spring of pure Being, Is-ness, who knows only, wholly, purely to BE.  I am its child, and I feel complete trust and appreciation for its gift of freedom to forever BE anything I want.   There is a multitude of spheres extending for a great distance.  I know that we are all unlimited and eternal.  I see human events displayed like movies on the blue light surfaces of the other spheres.  I can see some of my own events in my shell.  We have been all kinds of people, loved and hated each other, nurtured and killed each other.  I see everyone interacting in everyone else’s spheres, simultaneously.  This is all seen in complete silence. The Is-ness has no judgment on what we do.  As Beings, we will always BE.  The Is-ness will always BE.  There is no particular emotion in this scene, just observing. 
Several STEs.

Bart A Experiences 2/9/13 In the Spring of 1960, I saw my body in my bed as I rose above my bed and then out the Window and I kept rising up and up watching my home and neighborhood and the land where I lived in getting smaller until I actually rose above the Earth looking at Earth, then I found myself entering a very very beautiful landscape of rolling hills, lots of Greenery of plants, trees, and colorful flowering plants, rivers, waterfalls, lakes, it was very very awesomely beautiful, but then I pondered why I did not see any living creatures at all, anywhere. I felt very lonesome. Next I was back in my body, and I pondered about what I saw, I loved what I saw, but it seemed so lonely. Is this place, and I wondered if this beautiful place was prepared for future living beings.
OBEs dreams that are very detailed.

Luke Experience  2/9/2013  A scientific revelation respecting infinite existence.  Even though we are all born at different chronological interval.  In relation to a clock NASA has proven that as a cesium atomic clock more closely approaches lights' speed on a non-terrestrial space vehicle the time between the vehicles clock and an earth based clock changes (Though not by much) at 100% of lights' velocity there would be Zero change in the vehicles' clock and any onboard passengers would not have aged at all.  E=MC2.  Light (E)= The square of: Our body Mass (M) Times the speed of light (C).  This Brings forth answers to two documented phenomena during Near death.  Experiences.  First there is a small but measurable loss of weight (Mass) upon death which is probably the immediate conversion of a small amount of mass to a large amount of Energy often perceived as Light.  Second this slight mass but large energy equivalent loss (or gain from revival) from the deceased, call them life forces if you wish. may appear to occur at different chronological times but since time stands still at the speed of light all these Energy beams or life forces if you prefer arrive at the same time which is why NDE survivors are able to see the life forces from past chronological Periods This is quite easy to demonstrate on a live person not requiring a NDE.
Revelation about infinite existence at the time of bone marrow ablation in treatment of acute myelogenous leukemia.  Presented as is without comment.

Steve A Experiences  2/3/2013  I looked at myself driving and my dog was sleeping in the back.  I could turn my head but the rest of my body was paralyzed and I couldn't speak.  When I looked out my windshield it was like I was watching my life in reverse pausing on moments throughout my life. Everything was quiet...like a scene in a movie where someone is underwater.  Next it was like I was going around the world and being shown some really sad things...the state of 3rd world countries, the destruction of the Amazon, the floating masses of garbage that are floating around the world and some are bigger than the state of Texas.  At the end of all this I was shown something...a tab that you see on pop and beer cans - different from the existing one that is currently being used on the cans.  The voice came back and said the rest is up to you and that's when it ended. 
SOBE while driving with stunning look at the destruction ongoing in the world and a charge to make the world a better place.  Remarkable translation of experience into life action.

Christina R Experience 2/3/13 I had panoramic vision. It's difficult to explain but somehow I was able to see from all around my head as if my eyes were behind my head too. There was no sense of time either. I don't know how long I was out of my body.  I felt so happy that I went out the window and started to fly over the town. It wasn't night, it was daytime and the things in the town didn't seem exactly the same. I remember thinking that things looked a bit different, as if there were different trees in our garden. I flew over the houses, the buildings, and saw familiar people outside their houses. Then I thought "why not go to the beach?" as soon as the thought came to my mind I was instantly there.   Then I thought, well now I want to go out into space and I went up like a rocket but all of a sudden I felt very cold, it frightened me and I awoke in bed.
OBE dream with panoramic vision.

Michelle B Experiences  2/3/2013  The unconditional LOVE I felt was overwhelming and I knew that I was only being permitted to feel a glimpse of how truly profound it was. There is nothing to compare it to, to convey how wonderful it was.  If the scale was 1-100. I was only experiencing a 1 on that scale and it was so profound that my physical body could not handle it.  I felt like if the light, which I knew to be God, let me feel more that I would just explode. I felt like I was being held back in a way, that I could only come so close.  I was then shown, God, the light, energy never spoke but impressed upon my spirit things like unconditional love and total acceptance.  I was told without words to look beyond.  I saw eternity.
Two profound STEs that occurred while she was in prison.

Stevie Experience  2/3/13  During the difficult times after awaking, I was always surrounded by nurses, one in particular, a tall, thin, dark haired man named Ian. Ian was a very kind man, and strangely enough, did his job very well without doing much at all. He came in my room often and always greeted me with a handshake. He'd ask me what I needed, and I would tell him. He'd then ask if I had any preference in who would execute the task, and always, that person would come. I grew very fond of Ian in not a few days, he felt like a very close friend. But, one day, Ian didn't come. And the days that followed, the same thing. I began to worry, and at this time, I felt myself again, no more affects of the heavy sedation. I asked another nurse, "Where's Ian?" She seemed puzzled. "Who is Ian?" I heard that from every nurse I asked. I then tried to describe him, what he looked and sounded like. The confusion only grew. There was no nurse, on that floor or otherwise, that fit the description.
Mysterious entity encounter after brain surgery at age 16.

David F Experience  2/3/2013  During a walk through the park, this presumed memory, flooded in in mere seconds.  Through a walled "tunnel", to the "waiting place".  In this place there was NOTHING in ANY direction.  No heat, no light, no joy, and it could last forever.  Fear started welling up inside me.  Then I remembered, Jesus promised he would be there, if we just believed, and I did, and....suddenly I was in the light, in another place.  A review of my life (second by second, and from my, and OTHERS' point of view) preceded seeing, and "speaking" with Jesus occurred.  If the trip "there" took...15 seconds, the trip "back" took...three?
Remarkably transcendent STE at age 17.

Cindy F Experiences 1/29/13  When he (Jesus) came back, he asked me if I was ready to go, and I consented. He told me that he was going to take me back to Earth. Either we linked arms or he took my hand, and he flew me back to Earth. He seemed to have been short and thin, maybe with short, dark hair and perhaps he had wings. Come to think of it, when he had been instructing me earlier he may have been holding one of those pointer sticks that teachers sometimes hold when pointing out things that are written on the board; but again, I really can't say for sure what he looked like. Anyway, the Earth looked like a blue sphere, and I could see the gaseous, hazy glow of the atmosphere. The Earth appeared larger and larger as we steadily flew closer and closer, and once we hit the atmosphere, I returned to my physical body in the mind-awake/body-asleep state of consciousness.  
Amazing couple of OBE experiences!

Umer A Experience 1/27/13  From Pakistan.  A I realized I am out of my body and I can roam freely this experience was kind of new to me as I can see clearly myself sleeping in blanket and I can roam in room and see things like Clock which is at point that I cant see until I get out of bed and turn around. similarly I can clearly people talking who were out of the room.
Multiple SOBE dreams with associated sleep paralysis. 

LK Experience 1/27/13  It was as if I was in two different realities at once, like I could see myself at the same time as I was myself. I had the indescribable experience of not having any sense of the passage of time, such as if I was completely removed from the "norms" of this reality. I was in a place where everything was happening at once, and at the same time, nothing at all. Time, as we experience it and know it, did not exist.  This state continued for about a minute, and I have never experienced it again, nor spoken of it.  I have never been able to make complete sense of what I felt, but the closest description I can use is "time ceased to exist" and I was in a different place, but in the same place all at once.
SOBE at dinner table while eating at age 13.

Terri Experience 1/27/13  Then the being left me and I began to fly, it was as if I was able to adapt to anything I wanted to do. When I hit the water, Gills formed along my jawline and I was able to breathe under water and swim like I belonged there and all at once I was able to soar in the air and the fins that I had under water became wings in the air. I flew over a planet that had no trees or grass but was mostly water and had a bluish tone to the atmosphere. I flew like a bird to a cave that was mine and all of the vines and water knew exactly what I needed there. They produced what my body needed.
Meditation with interesting experience.

Sandy Experience  1/19/2013 By this time my lungs were burning and I felt total panic! With this I took a big gulp of water and that is when I heard the most wonderful music! Peace surrounded me and the panic resolved. I was so excited because I thought the people who owned the pool had hired an orchestra to play at the pool side. This probably happened over seconds but seemed more like minutes as I listened to the music. It flooded my soul with it's beauty and I have never heard anything as beautiful again in my lifetime. After some time a voice spoke to me. I now know that it was through telepathy. It was a loving, wonderful kind voice and it said, "You cannot swim on top of the water but you know how to swim underneath. Why don't you swim up where you can touch?" I rejoiced in this moment because I realized the voice was correct. So, I swam to the shallow end and was finally able to reach the surface of the water and crawled up steps out of the pool.
STE at age 8.  Was in pool and unable to swim.

Jessica M Experience  1/19/13  She told me she had received permission to see me, but that we would probably not see each other again until I die.  She told me that she had come to warn me to be very, very careful on the following day.  She warned me that I would be in danger, and I would need to be very "in tune" and aware of my surroundings. She didn't explain what would happen, only that I would need to pay attention and be very careful. Then she left… I heard a loud sound, a train horn.  I looked out the driver's side window to see the lights of a train coming toward us very quickly.  I realized then that we were on railroad tracks.  I quickly reversed the car off the tracks, narrowly avoiding the train, and we watched as the train sped past.  In that moment I realized this must have been what my aunt was trying to warn me about.
Premonition/ADC dream that helped her avoid being hit by a train the next day.

Flora J Experience. 1/19/13  I was just drifting off to sleep when I felt I was being lifted out of my body that was at rest on the bed.  I was then elevated up, up, up into a void until I was conscious of a bright light.  I was then encapsulated in this light and a profound feeling of total love filled my every sense.  I did not remain in that state for long and was soon falling back to my bed.  I was so filled with this love I called out - "I love you".   My partner awoke - pleased with this announcement - but the revelation was not for him.  The experience was something that has remained with me all these years and something I will never forget.
OBE dream with NDE-like content.

Child Experience 1/19/13 I then decided that I would try to make myself float on my own.  I sat on the floor cross-legged, closed my eyes and started to meditate, until I could no longer feel my body mass. From complete darkness there was a dot of light, then all of a sudden the whole area was filled with a room of bright light.  I still had my eyes closed.  All of a sudden I felt as though I was floating in this room.  It was the most liberating feeling ever to be free floating about.  I was aware that there was someone else in the room, but didn't know who.  I was also aware that I had a physical body that I was separate from, but also connected to.  My senses were telling me to hurry and return to my body before it was too late, otherwise I might not be able to get back to it. 
Meditation experience at the age of 5.

Eva Experience 1/14/13 From Canada Anyway, then they moved back to my room, where I saw myself lying on my bed and listened to them talking about me, "you see that girl over there, blah blah blah" they kept talking about me for a while, and somehow transported themselves and me into a fake place, where everyone honor females or whatever. Here was the random part. Those two voices disappeared and a calm, machine-like female voices start to talk about this stuffed pig toy that can act like a rocket. I took a ride with it and saw the entire view of that town. People there apparently were huge about the color purple. Lots of things were in purple, and many even painted their rooftops purple. Then up in the sky, I saw two Husky dogs in someone's balcony. And that was it. My vision was cut black, and before I know it, I saw the three connected circles again. They were still in place where they were the last time I saw them. And they started to rotate back. As soon as all the circles got back where they were in the first place, my eyes popped open. It was then I figured out that I just had an out-of-body experience. I constantly dream about weird stuff and remember a great amount of them. I also had experiences with lucid dreams, and I can tell that it was different.

Carmen Y Experience  1/14/2013  At decade 1970 (I am 68 years old) while a summer "siesta", very relaxed, suddenly I found myself in a interstar space. Dark blue colored. No tunnel, on the contrary wideness without limits. Consciousness of my knew form of being: "I AM JOYFULL AND PLENTYNESS, NOTHING IS MISSING TO ME" 
STE shared in English and Spanish.

Terri M Experience 1/14/13  I felt light, and I noticed I didn't feel the need to take a breath. I took one, but I didn't need it. So I decided not to take another. The next thing I remember is an indescribable feeling of peace, and the sensation of floating. It was the most pleasurable feeling I have ever had, so I opened my eyes, fully conscious of my surroundings. Nothing was out of place in my room. I had the shades drawn but they allowed enough light in to see clearly. I could hear cars going by on the road, my dog outside the door pawing to come in. And that's when I looked down on myself, and realized I was "up here" and "down there" at the same time. I wasn't sure what "I" was--I had no sense of a form, but I sure knew what I was looking down on. My physical body was sitting cross-legged on the bed, motionless. I heard the dog bark and the next thing I knew I was looking out of my own two eyes from my sitting position on the bed. I was trembling and felt fearful. I have never been able to meditate since. The experience left me sure of two things: It was NOT a hallucination, and if this is what death is like, it will not be painful… It was joy and peace and love all mixed together, but those words seem a hollow abstraction next to the direct experience.
OBE during meditation.

Nicole W Experience 1/14/13  Shortly after the pregnancy test, my husband and I were involved in a minor car accident. The roads were icy that day and the driver behind us rear-ended us. There was very minimal damage to the cars, and nobody got hurt. However, I immediately started worrying about the baby… I dreamed there was a "man of light" standing at the top of a staircase. He was very nice and friendly, and waved me up the stairs. I walked up the staircase. He wore corduroy pants, his name was Mark, and he had green eyes and freckles. Clean, white shirt. And a lovely light/glow all around him. I asked, "Are you an angel?", and he said "well, something like that -- I have a message for you". He told me that God didn't want me to worry about the baby. He said the child would be delivered full-term, safe and sound.
Prophetic dream with accurate information about her unborn child.

Jeffrey W Experience 1/14/13 From the UK  My physical body was lying on the living room floor curled up and I was in immense pain, then I was up to the ceiling looking down at myself rolling about on the floor holding my stomach, curled up crying with pain, but I, up in the ceiling I felt no pain, I was just watching myself on the floor. at the time I told my mother (who is still alive) that I could see the other children from my school outside the house leaving bunches of flowers against the walls.
SOBE at age 12-13 associated with pain from a ruptured appendix.

Dawn M Experience  1/14/13  I was in the school bus in front of my secondary school waiting for it to pull out to take us home.  In general, I was a very stressed kid due to major family dysfunction and abuse. I was also very shy, was attending a huge school, and was obsessed with getting A's.  I noticed how extremely nervous I felt. Just then I became aware of a presence behind my right shoulder and I received the message, "Everything will be alright." I also received a feeling of incredible peace and joy.  I was soaking this in when I became aware that the presence was leaving. It's hard to say how I knew this because I never saw the presence. I thought I may never have this chance again, so I asked, "Even after death?," and was told, "Yes, everything will be alright." I am less certain about one thing, which is that I think somehow I had this knowledge that everything is interconnected and fits together.
Entity encounter with important information for her in dealing with her anxiety.  Happened in early to mid teen years.
