Near Death Experience occurs BEFORE deadly car accident (NDE)
What Researchers Found
The Story
Ishtar was a 13-year-old boy in Wisconsin. He had a near-death experience during a car accident on a divided highway. The family car pulled out after dropping off his sister and got hit by a speeding vehicle. As the crash happened, Ishtar felt peace. He thought his life at 13 was too short. Then a life review flashed before him with a divine presence. They reviewed his life's pros and cons, like grudges and lies, plus subtle joyful moments such as gazing at a tree or puddle. He relived events from multiple views, including others' feelings and even the fence and trees. It ended in oneness and love. After impact, he lost consciousness, then awoke in the ambulance with a concussion. He had an out-of-body view and felt his mother die. After the NDE, Ishtar grieved his mother's death but lost all fear. He felt spontaneous joy, bliss, and endless peace for two to three months. This sparked his spiritual path. He read books, met mentors, and meditated deeply, gaining empathy and pursuing mysticism for life.
