Experience Description

When I was 13 years old, I was playing with a bike on a street. I was trying to do a wheelie with the bike, but lost control of the bike, hit the curb and came crashing into the ground.

My mom was talking to a neighbor, 7 meters away from me.

After the fall, I saw and felt the following:

- A passenger bus passed by me and I remember everyone who was there looking at me and me lying there.

- I walked as best as I could to my mom to apologize to her. But, I had no air in my lungs.

- When I finished asking my mother for forgiveness, I fainted. Someone instantly, or I don't remember the time very well, appeared behind me and carried me.He was squeezing my chest and moving me like a puppet. Thanks to him, I was able to take a breath and wake up.

In a few words, the above is what physically happened to me that day, but during that whole period I experienced things that have never been possible to experience again:

- All the time I saw myself from all angles. In the truck that passed by, I saw all the passengers watching me. I saw myself through each one of them. I saw above the truck, from the sky, from my mother's eyes, and from the eyes of the lady who was talking to my mother. I saw myself from all imaginable points. I saw myself and I saw everything at the same time.

- I think I was unconscious for about 3 to 5 minutes maximum. In that whole process I felt the absence of time. In reality, it could have been 5 minutes or an eternity.

- I saw a light that gave me something similar to 'tranquility' but in an incredible way. The whole time I felt and thought that it was my end in this world and I was more than happy. I never felt fear or anguish; even though my mother was watching everything.

- Even though I saw everything from every point, and I even still have the faces of the bus passengers recorded, the only face that I could never see or 'recognize' is that of the guy who 'saved' me. I only remember that he had a white shirt. Although he never hid his face, it was impossible for me to see him in the face.

- The feelings generated and everything I experienced at that moment was never something I knew before and I have not felt anything like it again.

Since that day I wish to die every day. I have changed my religious beliefs since I was 13. Everything that was instilled in me is very small compared to what I experienced that day. God is much more than we could imagine.

All of the above is a summary of what happened to me in that short period of time.

Did your experience include features consistent with your earthly beliefs? Content that was entirely not consistent with the beliefs you had at the time of your experience. The way everything happened at the same time (physical life and the other, I don't know what to call it). The experience is impossible to express to make me understand how 'amazing' it was.

Did you have a change in your values and beliefs because of your experience? Yes Before that, I was very attached to the church, I thought about being a priest and as soon as I had the experience I didn't know what to believe anymore because everything I experienced made me see 'our God' (I mean the god that any earthly religion describes to us) as very small.
