While meditation I have experienced formless nameless timeless purely awareness. I was home with unconditional love compassion. Being truly aware as I'm exactly as I'm. The eternity . And this home of eternity is here right now in the present moment. We have never left home. We have never seperated from the timeless eternity. Thankyou so much for sharing your experience. ❤
I would love to “believe” in this God that is all loving and that there is a purpose to everything. At times I have. I was so blessed that my early childhood was like that. My father died unexpectedly when I was 16 and that bubble burst. I still see that beauty, God?, in the flowers in my garden. But who would create a world where 1000 Russian soldiers are sent to be dead or maimed each day for years by a senseless man. This shatters my belief and I cannot connect all the pieces.
I don't understand. I'm LDS and my religion believes we get one life and it's an opportunity for our spirits to learn and grow and have free agency to decide what we will do with what we have and not to be forced to choose God but to choose him and love for ourselves. And we don't come back over and over. We are married and our families are our families forever. And I don't want it any other way. My family is my forever family. Infact I met my daughter before she came, before I almost died from hemorrhaging with her baby brother. I didn't know she was mine. I asked her where her parents were and she spoke to my mind and said you know. My body filled with so much love… She touched my hand, I jolted awake. I just have so many experiences that are like this.
You walked into a hospital with acidosis and jaundice and no one picks up a probable gall bladder issue? How do you know you weren't simply hallucinating? Stagnant bile within an obstructed duct serves as a culture medium for bacteria ascending from the duodenum. This leads to a purulent infection of the biliary tree. Fever, jaundice, and RUQ pain. Septic shock. Sounds like what you were suffering from.
You got very lucky. Whatever was blocking the duct must have worked itself free.
BTW, hell of a way to learn about the dangers of a keto diet.
I am so sorry to say this – but My Heart Bleeds for you when the only person to greet you was You. And it makes perfect sense given your past EGO and Personality. How wonderful the gift of the answers so that you may teach. So even then, your given preparedness because as a CEO you possess the leadership and Natural Cognitive ability to relay the teachings. Next time you pass, hopefully I'll be there to greet you with the rest of us. And lots of friendly animals – OBVIOUSLY.
Had beyond thousands of spiritual expiriances As well as hell, as beyond devine. Also the beyond extreme, induced by psychofarmaseuticals. But I was warned. And had choises. And was led. Studied thousands of Nde,s. But also the duality and contradictions. But so within myself. Also expirianced a thousand Obe,s (out of body) during extreme sleepparalisis. Was sucked out of my boddy. Dark lightorbs violating my essence, my soul. And beyond much more. Questioned the true creator. But also know, for many things I,m responsible myself. Was tempted and suisidal for longer than 25 years. Barely survived Lost all I had. Still don,t know where it will end.
My “happy pill” is recalling feel of the sun on my face. Yet unrelenting physical pain shattering my spirit, loving what I can thru it, recognizing I chose this & why, surrendering… none of it makes the pain less crushing. ??? I’m dumbfounded by the severity of human pain our souls are expected to survive. I cannot imagine ever being whole again even in the arms of love himself. – I mean no disrespect, offense
My dad passed June 3rd and I’m struggling I just to know he is at peace. I selfishly want him to come to me and show me signs and it’s not happening 😢. I just need something a little something to know he’s okay and is with me . I’m struggling with my spirituality. I don’t know my purpose. I just keep watching these videos to give me some Hope for something. I’m not OK.
I've listened to and read hundreds of these experiences. I had one myself some decade in the past. And I contend none of them are 'near death' experiences. They are death experiences. Some folks die for a time and return, we do not skim, or tangentially glance off, remaining alive the entire time. Our bodies fail and die and then… awareness returns. They are death experiences.
Ever since I lost my little brother to a tragic death yrs ago I began to search for answers. Never could find anything that was very helpful. Then my beautiful mother passed & I was more determined to seek out information about where she was, was she with her son (my little brother) could see me? So I found a video about someone who had a NDE, I watched it , wanted more, watched another one ,& more I found the better I felt. How can 100s of people go wrong? Well they can't & they don't. I'll say tho this one here, Anthony is awesome and I look forward to learning much more from him. God is so good . Yes he is!!!! 🙏❤🙏❤
His story sounds so believable, but what happens to people that do terrible things to other people and cause suffering for those people and those people end up murdered what happens to the people that do those terrible things to other people? He doesn’t touch on that subject. It’s like everyone is forgiving for every sin that they created in their life, but what happens to those people that murder people and cause terrible suffering in their life what happens to them and what happens to the people that do all those bad things what they’re suddenly forgiven and that’s it I find that part of it a little unbelievable but most of what he says sounds believable, but I haven’t heard him say anything in regards to those who do bodily harm to other people murdering them, causing suffering to those people that are being murdered. I find it a little bit hard that they can automatically be forgiven.
I could not agree with you more on so much! It really is not about the church. So many people, including myself at one time, put everything into that. Very sad, but people have a total right to do that.
I have stopped listening at minute eight with the realization that this gentleman experienced a deception. There’s only one Jesus and he is Lord of Lords and king of Kings. Any near death experience that does not acknowledge that Jesus is Lord is a deception.
Thank you for the testimony and choosing to return and help others. I love the information you provided, of such an immense feeling of love, of our choices, of all you shared. God blessed you with this wonderful experience, and your blessings us with knowledge. I’ve always believed, in-fact knew God is real and have felt his presence since I was a child. 🙏❤️
I struggle with this story and have to be honest I don't believe it. There's no emotion when he talks about the feeling of love. I've watched many NDE testimonies and they just feel believable as they struggle to formulate the words and become very emotional when they recount the experience. This guy just talks right the way through showing no emotion like it's been rehearsed. This is just my view and I most likely am wrong but something feels disingenuous about it
I experienced something very similar in a medically supervised Ibogaine session, though I was so astonished and curious I spent hours trying to analyze what I saw before finally surrendering, which is when my life review started without any warning. Coming back felt like having my mindstream reincarnated into my own body after spending that "long blink" beyond time and space where everything is benevolent, childlike, and a unified totality which is also infinitely dividing and playing with itself before descending into the time and space universe which is like the dream of this other side of existence. Coming back felt like lucid dreaming in the waking world and for weeks we felt an extremely strong sense of kinship with everything, even the elemental forces of nature, as non-duality abiding in the heart of duality. 🌈
Jonathan's experience seems to match the experiences of many people we know from history including Siddhartha, Yeshua, and the Public Universal Friend (and far more people with no public recognition) who have been blessed with the gnosis of the living void and tried to put it into language that could be understood by other people even though words and concepts are inherently limiting and insufficient.
After listening twice, I still need to go back to the last 20 minutes as this is the essence of his talk. I am hoping people will be able to reflect and learn from his message of love for humanity. 💖
I feel love and oneness with all. The time it began feeling this way has never changed was 2005. It was the day of realization, like an electric shock, an NDE. You can never forget why you're here, once you've seen it.
You're here to experience, to love, to commune with the All and listen for what's next.

Who knows it was dream maybe because there was no doctor or medical authority observing him

I can't get enough of his knowledge…..❤
Namaste to you all🫶🏼

I am moved to tears. Thank you for this validation of my own experience.

I had the same experience by meditating

Jesus you met was and is The COSMIC CHRIST .
I don’t understand how these NDEs do not mention the Church, the Bible , and mystical theology …-?
Thank you for sharing. Your story is beautiful.
At 40:50 seek out love or seek out what? It cuts off. Does he say competition and it sounds like comp?
Thank you so much for this video; I also have psychic visions which is just incredible………bless you!
Pancakes,,,loved that !
