88. Ricardo Grandfather NDE 3/25/1999. Secondhand NDE 10064. From Portugal In that place there was a group of people who seemed to be waiting for him. They were all in white, and they all had a rosebud painted on the chest area of their garments. It was a realistic depiction of a rosebud, with two leaves on either side of the stem. One of those people came sliding up to my grandfather, holding in his hand one of those rosebuds.

87. Evelyn NDE 12/29/2001. NDE 487. From Denmark The bright light had slowly transformed into a figure dressed in a white robe. Everybody became silent as the figure came towards me. The face of the figure was very bright, smiling and calm. I could even feel its warmth.

86. PJ NDE 12/16/2001. NDE 480. What strikes me as so real about this experience, even after all these years, is the comfort and peace of it, as well as the vivid colors and sharp details of a landscape that I ordinarily would take for granted.

The only way I can describe it is a violet/white/blue fluorescent type color--but it was almost like a pool of color or presence (not a tunnel, really) that was radiating so tremendously. I WANTED to take it in...to go to it...

81. Jerome NDE 10/27/2001. NDE 428. The confirmation of personal continuity of identity was, by far, the most spectacular part of the experience.

NDE from cardiac arrest. Interesting out-of-body perceptions.

NDE from lady in Iran at age 17.

57. Lisa B NDE 10/1/2000. NDE 273. I became aware that there were 2 (possibly 3) "beings with me, one on either side. They were communicating with me - directly, telepathically, just putting their input directly into my consciousness, no words and much less "time". I knew I was somehow removed from these usual "laws" or ways of processing experience. While I did not sense a life review on specific terms, I was shown, by understanding- not pictures or movies, many significant things in my life. The good and the bad. All focused on my contributions- how I handled myself. I remember the almost palpable absence of all fear. I was made to understand that this fear is what underlies many of our poor choices. That there is nothing to fear. I felt compassion toward myself like I never could imagine possible. A type of love that I never knew. Empathy, sympathy for all I'd experienced and a new determination to let myself live as I could and should and must. I knew I had a clear purpose and was shown this purpose so I could understand how needed I was.
Fascinating life review! Experiencer is a Veterinarian.

50. Karen B NDE 187 5/7/2000. NDE 187. Next thing I remember I was in a dark tunnel with a light at the end. I was compelled to go to the light. When I came into the light, there was a being of light. It was the most peaceful feeling I have ever felt. More peaceful than I can put into words. The being told me I was HOME but I needed to go back because he had some work for me to do. He said I would not understand the meaning of the work until I went back. He showed me what it was like to have a peaceful world and that we can attain that peaceful world if we have faith and help one another. He said I would come back here and help with this work. In time, I would remember who I really am and what my purpose is on earth. After my work was complete I would come back home. I agreed to come back and help. It has not been easy to come back to this world and all its pain and suffering. In fact, it was a very painful experience to come back. It was like a cruising feeling or of an awareness of feeling the material plane.
