The Near Death Experience of Mrs. Alice T.
What Researchers Found
The Story
Alice experienced a near-death event due to heavy menstrual bleeding from myoma. She collapsed in the hospital toilet at night and remained unconscious for two hours until discovered and operated on. During the NDE, she stood in a vivid green meadow with intense, indescribable colors and a rainbow sky vibrating with harmonious music and energy. She felt deep love and familiarity. An angel-like guide, a radiant being of light, appeared. They flew over landscapes resembling Earth, including ponds, thatched villages, friendly people, and dogs. She viewed a golden city with a large gate and walls from above. She sensed an omnipresent energy as God and accessed knowledge from a shining black source in the sky, asking questions but unable to retain the answers. After the NDE, Alice lost all fear of death, seeing it as a transition to another form. She became more easygoing and humorous about death, with internal changes that her children noticed.
This NDE contains no veridical perception claims whatsoever, consisting entirely of subjective, archetypal spiritual visions (meadow, angel, golden city) with no references to physical-world events, people, or objects during unconsciousness. The experiencer explicitly notes the absence of typical OBE elements, and memories surfaced months or years later via meditation and YouTube videos, without any verification attempts.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Was this Evidence Strength score useful?
Was this Experience Depth score useful?
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
Was this Life Impact score useful?
Are you here because someone you love has died?
These accounts were gathered because death may not be the end. Thousands of people have experienced something beyond — and come back to tell us about it.
