Experience Description: I was accidentally poisoned. Almost instantly, I could not breathe. Then I just knew I was dying. I ran to my brother's bedroom it was the first room I came to. I laid on the bed in serious chest pain and 'pop'! I was on the other side of the room, but my body, my shell was on the bed. I saw and felt the Light, am I dead? Then gentle laughter, 'No Nick you can't die you were never born. Is your shell going to die? Not yet.''Are you Jesus?' 'I am the great I am. I come to you the way you want to see me; there is a golden thread in all religions and practices. I am the blanket and you are a thread of it.'This is my imagination. 'Is it Nick?!'No, I was never as sure of anything as I am of this. 'You have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.'The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told there is no hell. Hell is a lack of harmony. Heaven is harmony. You can have these in or out of the shell. Several things were told to me one of which was, 'You will have a child late in life. You will call him Quentin. It will be with the third woman.'I had Quentin with my third wife when I was fifty-five years old - my first child. There is so much more, all I can say is I still have daily contact with the Light every day. I was asleep; I awoke to find the rest of the world still sleeping! It comes from within.Peace - Nicholas P.Background Information: Gender: Male Date NDE Occurred: June 1969 NDE Elements: At the time of your experience, was there an associated life-threatening event?

None, but thank you, it comes from within peace.
