What NDEs say
You are the oversoul that lives through all those versions. Each lifetime is a sliver of the much larger consciousness that is actually you.
Many people worry they will lose themselves, or have to choose between the person they are now and someone they once were. Peter Panagore was shown his other lives, some human, some animal, maybe one alien, he couldn't tell, and he could bring his mind back into those bodies and see through their eyes 1. But then he understood something that changed everything: none of those lives were actually him 1.
What he saw, and what others report, is that the soul living these lives is so much bigger than any single one of them 1. Mariko Frederick experienced all her lifetimes at once and said the essence of her was still there, running through every one 2. Peter describes it as an oversoul, a consciousness so vast that each incarnation is just a tiny sliver 3. You are not one of the versions. You are the being that inhabits them all.

So the 'you' in the afterlife is not Peter at 25 or Mariko in 1987 or the version of yourself reading this now. It is the much larger self that was always there, the one looking through all those eyes. The person you are today is real while you are here 3, but it is not the fullness of what you actually are.
