Growing up in San Jose, I dreamed of becoming an athlete, supported by my father who encouraged me in everything I did. But after my grandmother’s death and my parents’ divorce, I lost that support and began struggling with deep emotional pain, turning to food and later bulimia to cope. My desire for acceptance and perfection led me into destructive relationships, drug use, and eventually methamphetamine, as I chased an unattainable image of beauty and worth. This path brought me to a breaking point, where I felt lost, empty, and ready to give up. In 1997, after a near-death experience caused by my eating disorder and drug use, I experienced a profound sense of love, clarity, and purpose. I was given a second chance and came to understand that true healing comes from self-acceptance, love, and living with purpose. From that moment, I committed to rebuilding my life, using my experiences to grow, help others, and inspire people to recognise their own inner strength and potential.

Angela awoke one morning unable to breathe and was taken to hospital, where she lay struggling for air before suddenly feeling free, weightless, and completely unafraid. She sensed two loving guides who lifted her from her body and showed her a vast vision of creation, where she understood that everything is connected and that every action matters. She then learned that death is not a change of self but a change of place—that we carry no material things with us and remain who we are. When she returned to her body, the pain and breathlessness resumed, but her fear of death was gone, replaced with deep assurance that life has meaning and that what comes after is good.

Kelly describes a near-death experience in which she suddenly found it easy to breathe and felt herself ascending through a warm, reddish tunnel toward a brilliant light. She sensed that she had died but felt calm after being reassured that her children would be safe. During the experience, she was shown a vision of the universe where everything was connected, like a vast network, and she understood the deep importance of all life. As she moved closer to the light, she experienced beautiful music, colours, and overwhelming feelings of unconditional love from beings who communicated with her telepathically. Just before reaching the source of the light, they gently told her it was not her time and that she had to return. When she woke back in her body, the knowledge she had gained quickly faded, but the memory of the experience and the sense of the unity of all life remained with her.

Cara was a reckless teenager who overdosed on cocaine and alcohol in a remote area. Her friends witnessed violent seizures and believed she had died when her heartbeat stopped. Days later, Cara began recalling a vivid out-of-body experience in which she watched her own death, burial, and the passage of time beyond her physical body. She then experienced a profound state of pure energy and interconnected consciousness, where identity and time no longer existed. A voice told her she was not meant to die yet, and she suddenly returned to her body, feeling renewed. She now lives a healthy, drug-free life.

Steve describes having a near‑death experience in 1998 where he felt he crossed into another realm beyond physical life. He travelled through darkness and a tunnel into a place of overwhelming light, love, and higher energy beings who communicated without words. He witnessed a life review, reliving his actions and feeling the emotional impact he had on others, both positive and negative. Steve says he reached a peaceful “ocean of no return” but was told he could not stay because his life’s purpose was unfinished, especially regarding his son. He believes souls choose to incarnate to grow through imperfect earthly experiences and must release negative energy before returning “home.” After being sent back into his body, he struggled emotionally but gradually reframed life as a learning journey centred on love and forgiveness. Steve now teaches that life is about experiences and memories, and that forgiveness frees the soul from burdens that complicate the journey beyond death

Mary, a nurse and mother of six, had a profound near-death experience during a car accident in July 1994 when time seemed to stop just before her vehicle was hit by a semi-truck. In those few seconds, she felt enveloped in overwhelming love, sensed God’s presence, and experienced a vivid life review in which she felt both the joy and pain her actions had caused others—without judgment, only love and understanding. She was shown that life’s purpose is learning to love others and oneself through small acts of kindness, and she was given a choice to stay on Earth or leave. Choosing to return, Mary survived the crash with only minor injuries and was deeply transformed, losing her fear of death and living thereafter with a strong sense of purpose, compassion, and certainty that God is unconditional love.

Andy was a joyful high-school student who nearly drowned during a lake picnic just days before graduation. As he sank helplessly, he heard a calm inner voice telling him to let go. The moment he stopped struggling, he felt himself leave his body and travel through a dark tunnel toward a brilliant, loving Light. All pain and fear vanished, replaced by warmth, peace, and overwhelming love. Andy experienced a life review without judgment and felt completely known and accepted. The Light spoke his name and told him he was loved, but then instructed him to return. He awoke back in his body on the beach, deeply saddened by the loss of the Light. Although he told others he remembered nothing, the experience remained vivid for the rest of his life and later inspired spontaneous poetry that Andy felt was flowing through him from the Light.

When Brian was ten, he slipped from a small dam into a fast-moving river. Caught in an undertow, he lost all sense of direction and believed his life was ending.In the darkness, his life appeared in brief flashes—his mother’s face, his siblings, moments of love. He was drawn through a tunnel of light, filled with peace and belonging. At a boundary, he sensed he could not cross and return.A guardian presence told him his time was not yet finished. Brian was pulled back into his body, heard a voice telling him to stand, and was lifted from the water.He survived, forever changed, carrying a quiet certainty that his life was given back to him for a reason.

I saw that humanity’s blindness was part of a divine plan—so that when the veil lifts, joy will flood the world. Awakening isn’t tied to time but to changes in human consciousness. Each person who heals and opens their heart helps loosen the veil for everyone, until it finally falls. I saw lights around the earth—people already touching the Divine. Their joy helps raise the whole world. Jesus taught me that true faith is a shift of consciousness, not obedience. He freed me from old obligations and guided me directly into God’s love. Then I was welcomed by Heavenly Father, who showed me my life’s struggles were gifts and that a new purpose was beginning. Finally, Heavenly Mother embraced me with perfect, complete love—the deepest wholeness I have ever known.

Shalom recounts that after a serious car accident shortly after graduating high school, he was pronounced dead and experienced profound peace, love, and a journey through a tunnel of light, where he was told it was not yet his time. He later endured years of struggle, loss, and illness, leading to a second near-death experience during surgery, where he encountered guardian beings, a life review, and a loving presence he recognised as Jesus, whom he was invited to call “Big Brother.” He was told he must return to fulfil his mission: to help healers heal, to serve without ego or greed, and to unite people of all faiths through love, forgiveness, patience, and inner awakening. Raised Jewish, educated across traditions, Shalom understands God as beyond any single religion, believing all people are connected as one through the divine spirit, and that true faith begins with recognising that inner unity.
