What is an NDE?
A near-death experience (NDE) is typically a profound, life changing, intensely emotional experience that usually occurs during a clinical crisis and has common characteristics and aftereffects. It is not a dream, hallucination, or mental illness (Greyson, 1983). There are no predictive variables to identify who will have an NDE. They happen to people of all ages, religions, socio-economic groups, cultures, educational backgrounds, and belief systems. They occur under a variety of circumstances such as accidents, near-drownings, illnesses, combat, surgical procedures, and childbirth. Following an NDE, experiencers (NDErs) often display some common aftereffects. Research has established a set of common NDE characteristics and long-term aftereffects. Theories used to explain near-death experiences in purely physical terms have been proven inadequate by NDE researchers and others.

Very good
Beautiful message thank 6
@DaniFoffa
I'm just about 70, born in July of '56.
When I was 22, in '78, I had a profound Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE).
Blew the doors off everything I thought I knew and put me to researching Psi and Quantum Theory.
After almost a half century of digesting the STE, this is what I believe: Consciousness is all that actually exists. Everything we experience is Perception In Consciousness. Perception In Consciousness is facilitated through a bilateral symbiotic flow of information between our partitioned selves and the Consciousness Singularity of which we are partitioned bits.
Veridical NDEs are best evidence of our true nature as discarnate Consciousness experiencing Perception In Consciousness.
"Death" is merely a transition to new Perception In Consciousness.
Thank you very much
Just a point: Oneness is a lived experience, not a concept. At least not first
What about the NDEs where the persons went to a realm of hell? And saw the demons, torture, and souls there?
Beautiful message, thank you for sharing 🙏

Dani, why do you have cigarettes sticking out of your ears? Ever try speakers? Bob, you need to do more research into Edgar Casey where he describes what he calls the ''border land''. There exist those departed spirits who don't enter the Light or higher realms due to strong earthly attachments such as addictions to drugs or alcohol. Ever hear the term ''ghosts''? 🙄😔🤔
Thank you so much for sharing this powerful information 💜
Dani you look fantastic for your age! I’m the same age and have a positive I feel egoic conceit about how young I appear but indeed your appearance humbles me!
In Catholicism, basically you chose hell if you won't accept God's mercy, which he offers you even after you are dead but before you go to heaven. He WANTS you to chose him and heaven. You decline, you send yourself to hell.
We are all one but still alone. Still no evidence we live after death. Still no evidence god exist. Only evidence we have is that there will be a funeral after we die. 😂
