NDE: Pilot Dies, Alters His Future In Post-Apocalyptic World
What Researchers Found
The Story
The experiencer was an inventor who had a near-death experience (NDE) after a plane crash caused by engine failure. During the NDE, he found himself in a post-apocalyptic landscape. He observed an egg-shaped sculpture with gears that represented choices in his future. An unseen voice guided him, explaining that he was in the 'eternity of a single moment' and that he needed to focus on the choices remaining to him. After the experience, he felt a deeper connection to his daughter and a new understanding of free will. He transformed his life by focusing on spiritual growth and service to others.
