How To Have An Experience Of Your Own WITHOUT Drugs Or Dying - Near Death Experience (NDE)
What Researchers Found
The Story
Doug was a 24-year-old man on a spiritual journey in India in 1979. He suffered from amebic dysentery, dengue fever, and hepatitis A, which weakened his body and led to his physical death over three days. During the NDE, Doug's mind diminished and fear vanished as his breathing became expansive. A soothing shaking released traumas and attachments from his body. He floated out, looked down at his sick form, and laughed. He experienced vast awareness of everything, seeing the room in 360 degrees without eyes. He shifted to a golden realm, met familiar beings, and viewed past lives as simultaneous bubbles. A being resembling George Gurdjieff instructed him to return. Doug negotiated to keep his memories and was reattached to his body, which felt heavy and cold. After the NDE, Doug released remaining traumas through modified Wim Hof breathing over a year and a half. This deepened his meditations, unlocked extrasensory perceptions, and gave him a full sense of presence. He helped others face death without fear and pursued spiritual investigation, knowing it was his last life.
