Robert Kopecky - Spiritual Technology Revealed by the Out of Body Experience
What Researchers Found
The Story
The man had his near-death experience in the mid-1980s. He crashed his car into a utility pole at 35-40 miles per hour while driving home from the airport in an unfamiliar neighborhood at dusk. He had been fumbling with his tape cassette player and hit a jog in the road, clipping a parked car first. Right after the crash, he found himself at the top of the utility pole, feeling free and better than fine. He saw a lamp turn on and a moth nearby. Looking down, he viewed his crashed car with an arm hanging out, broken windshield, fluid, and steam. He realized it was his body. He felt boundaryless unity and total love. He watched neighbors come out, heard them call for an ambulance, and saw it arrive. He tried to go down and talk but could not. A benevolent entity guided him through a cloud bank to a pastoral place like a park. There, he had an important conversation with the entity, hashing out matters, though he did not recall details. He woke up 20 hours later in a hospital after reconstructive surgery. Weeks later, he verified the crash scene matched what he saw from above. Years later, through meditation, he gained insight into living as energetic, extra-dimensional beings in a boundaryless field of divine consciousness. This helped him become a compassionate witness to human struggles and detach from material demands while fulfilling karma.
The account features a self-verified out-of-body observation of the crash scene from an elevated vantage point inaccessible from the ground, including details over a hedge, during a period of deep unconsciousness. However, details lack high precision or unpredictability, with no independent witnesses to the pre-verification report and mostly predictable crash aftermath elements.
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.
