This book gives an impression of what near-death experiences (NDEs) are like by giving many hundreds of quotes from more than 100 experiencers from all over the world. Put your “traditional” ideas aside, and read the quotes. Sense how they feel for you. Let go of whatever ways you have been programmed by your upbringing or by religion, and open your mind to receive whatever wisdom you find in these testimonies of people who have experienced the first moments of physical death.
“This book contains powerful and transformative testimonies from people of different religious and cultural backgrounds who experienced NDEs and their aftereffects. From experiencers’ profound insights, your perspective on Heaven and the afterlife will be forever changed. A must read.” ANITA MOORJANI, New York Times best-selling author of Dying to Be Me, What If This Is Heaven? and Sensitive Is the New Strong
“What we may learn from this important book is that it is all about love and compassion toward yourself and others, and that everything and everybody is always connected. This wonderful book has the potential to break many taboos about our current ideas about life and death, and we can reap the benefits of the NDE without having to nearly die. Highly recommended!” PIM VAN LOMMEL, MD, cardiologist, NDE researcher, author of Consciousness Beyond Life
“Selected quotes from the actual reports of over 100 NDE accounts, thoughtfully categorized under a broad spectrum of major headings by an investigator with decades of rigorous experience studying the entire field, make this book a treasure trove of information for those seeking deeper understanding of this fascinating aspect of human experience. A most worthwhile read!” EBEN ALEXANDER, MD, former Harvard neurosurgeon, author of Proof of Heaven, The Map of Heaven, and Living in a Mindful Universe

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.
