Kimberly Clark Sharp's Near Death Experience NDE
What Researchers Found
The Story
Kim experienced a near-death event during a medical emergency when medical staff could not detect her pulse. She let go and entered a gray, foggy environment where she waited. A powerful Light of love blasted from below, surrounding her endlessly in all directions and layers, which she recognized as eternity, God, and home. She communicated with the Light through math and music, asking about life's purpose, pain, and free will. The Light explained that souls choose earthly life for growth, and suffering helps remember God. It told her to return, but she argued before being sent back. She floated six feet above her body, viewing it as an empty shell. A man's compassionate mouth-to-mouth drew her back in. Miserable in her body, she called to God, who showed a beautiful heaven but warned of no return. Flashes revealed future connections with people like neighbors and friends, and a life of service. She chose to return. After the NDE, Kim gained a sense of purpose to serve others and understood the body as merely a shell.
“this Light loved me, knew me personally and in the presence of this light I said ho-me home and I later learned from my parents that ho-me home when I was”
The account describes a medical crisis with no pulse detected and an OBE observing resuscitation from six feet away, providing some perceptual access challenge. However, details lack specificity, veridical elements are predictable and unverified, with no mention of timely reporting or confirmation.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
