Why You Are Here
I believe you are on this earth to evolve spiritually. This involves giving and receiving love. By loving your Creator, having a deep love for yourself, and then a love for others, you will discover the answer to the question, Why am I here?
You Are Destined To Go Back
Since the earth is our great school, we are destined to go back to the spiritual world after a short time.
We all come from the spirit, and are having an earthly experience. Therefore our body or outer shell of who we really are only has a certain number of days to exist. That’s the bad news. The good news is that we have been created to live forever in the spirit. This may be scary for many of us because we remember only our experiences in life while on earth. The majority of us don’t remember what our spiritual worlds were like, and that makes the fear of death, more common.
You Chose To Come Here
Yes, I believe that you chose to come to the earth. You may believe that you had no choice in the matter, but I would kindly disagree. I believe you knew that earth was the great school that would allow you to grow spiritually. Even though you decided to come to this plain and experience the good and the bad, you knew that in terms of time it would only be the equivalent of a spiritual second, and that it was very much worth the price.
What Is A Near-Death Experience
A Near-Death Experience occurs when a person temporarily leaves their physical body and returns to a spiritual state. This state can include going to heaven and returning, but other times the experience is cut off before the individual gets to see much of the spiritual world. The body dies, but the spirit lives on. The person is then revived or enters back into the body to tell about the experience they had.
And I Should Care Why?
The NDE holds valuable lessons and hints about the afterlife. You should be interested in this phenomenon because it holds the keys to why you are here and what your purpose. This knowledge can change your life; and your afterlife as well!
The Near-Death Experience
Although most NDEs vary, there are many that are very similar in their accounts. Here is a sample of what may occur when an individual has a NDE. Let’s say this person is in the hospital and has a heart attack.
The person would be aware of some discomfort, but suddenly that pain would disappear.
The individual would become aware of all the activity going on around them, where nurses and doctors may shout, “We’re losing her!”
Next a feeling of being out of the body would occur. In this case the person could see all around their body and underneath the bed for example. They would not be limited to the primitive vision we possess on earth.
They may next be aware of visitors. Perhaps a spiritual guide, or a deceased relative that has come to take them to the spiritual plain.
The person my then become aware of a noise. Some hear chimes, others hear buzzing sounds. However they feel no pain.
They next become aware of what seems to be a dark tunnel. They have indeed been “lifted” or “removed” from their body, and begin traveling through the darkest of dark tunnels. The fear should be extremely high in such a situation; however NDErs report great comfort and calm in the tunnel.
At the end of the tunnel is a light. A light that is brighter than anything known to man. Yet all of the respondents say that the light doesn’t bother their vision one bit. This light turns out to be a spiritual being: God, Jesus, or their Creator.
Their life on earth is then reviewed. Their good deeds and bad are examined yet they are not judged by others.
Many people say that they see a border in the spiritual world, and they are aware that if they cross the border, they will not be allowed to return to the earth in that lifetime. Many are told that it is not their time to die and they must return to earth, and so they do return. If the person is asked if they would like to go back the answer is always no, but they will be encouraged to come back to complete a mission that they were given before they were born.
When the person comes back there is a feeling of being jolted back into the body.
Learning From Near-Death Experiences
We can learn a great deal from NDEs. We can learn how to live this life and how to prepare for the life thereafter. By learning about love, you can change your life starting today. Begin a new direction, and get closer to your purpose on earth.
It’s Easy To Get Off Track
Fame and fortune, living for the now, and not planning for tomorrow, these are traps to avoid when living your purpose. You want to be sure that the actions you take today are ones you will be proud of in the future.
Life is a lesson. You chose to come here and live. If it is not going as you had planned, you can change that. By learning more about NDEs you can transform the world you live in, and serve others around you. Good luck on your journey!
