“The experience of a severe physical shock is met with a correspondingly severe experience in spirit. That jolting of the etheric body, but not a total disconnection from the physical body, is the signal to the soul that it has the ability to leave the physical state and travel to the realm where it knows it has been before. Not always does the person have memory of previous visits here in dream state or in supraconscious moments, but there are those unique connections of the spirit that call forth this journey of the etheric body. The souls who make this journey have that near-death experience.
I have told you we know about the imminent arrivals by their distinctive and unmistakable energy blip identification mark. That same recognition is true of people in near-death experiencing. When their energy stream taps into the universal wavelengths, those who recognize it through love bonding respond instantly. That’s why family members or friends in this realm and angels or other spirits are waiting for them.
People in near-death experiences don’t enter by way of our welcoming and hospital stations. They are greeted at a special portal where the atmosphere is custom-created in accordance with their ideas of Heaven. We know what to manifest because the individual’s universal record is made available so that all aspects of the visit can have maximum benefit. So, however at variance with what actually is here the individuals’ belief systems decree what they will see during the short visit. That expectation may include the appearance of the founder of their religion. If so, it is achieved by holographic representation, and the Christed energy of this realm emanates the love that these visitors may attribute to that founder.
True, souls who make transition also are treated to their envisioned Heaven upon entry, but that is a strategy for delicately introducing them into residency, and it’s a temporary illusion. The personalized Heavens or people with near-death experiences remain throughout their short stay to avoid presenting an actuality that could be disturbing to their psyches, which will not have time to adjust to the truth of this realm. The more highly spiritually evolved the visiting soul, the more factually Nirvana is presented. Since there is no need for medical treatment or explanation of all that the realm offers residents, there are only the joyous reunion aspects during the visit.
The visiting souls are completely aware of all they have left on the Earth plane, including the reason for their temporary release from physical body, and they are just as aware of all that is happening here. They are excited about seeing family members and friends, whom they talk with both telepathically and in speech.
Upon return to Earth, often a visitor remembers a controversy regarding whether he may or may not–that also can be “should” or “should not”—remain here. The decision to stay or return is solely that person’s, and ALWAYS it has to do with provisions of his pre-birth agreement. Most of you would have a difficult time dealing with something as unknown as a pre-birth agreement, so the discussions here are not remembered accurately, but rather are put into the context of the belief system within the person’s psyche. His memories of the controversy are converted by his usual mental processes into issues he can easily relate to on Earth. Thus his “reason” for returning may be remembered as a child’s or spouse’s or parent’s need for care, or a desire to complete important personal or business affairs. Sometimes a visitor is eager to go back and make amends for what he realizes during his visit was wrongful treatment of others, and even though he won’t remember any discussions of that sort, the desire remains once back on Earth and he acts upon that.
The decision to return is not always without influence from others. Council members, the guardian angel, or family members and friends who wish to help the visitor understand the seriousness of choosing to curtail major agreement provisions present cogent arguments against his remaining if he hasn’t fulfilled those provisions. Those who see the larger picture of his lifetime mission advise so warmly and lovingly that usually he willingly returns to Earth. But as I said, once back there, those discussions are totally lost to his conscious memory.
Once back in the third density of Earth they simply are not capable of awareness beyond their physical realities. Even though their dramatic and impressive spiritual experiences here impart some memory or interpretation intact, the full scope of what happened is forgotten in the density of their bodies.
What determines whether experiences will be remembered clearly, partially, incorrectly, or not at all, is not left up to chance. It’s according to the laws of physics. It is the conversations, the scenes, the sense of timing that aren’t remembered accurately. Those aspects are mental and require a similar mechanism for authentic memory. In this realm the visitor is operation within our fourth density in all ways. Returning to Earth is a return to third density faculties, which are incapable of comprehending at fourth density level. There simply cannot be accuracy when mental faculties are downloaded from fourth to third density, thus the heavier density of flesh traps the experiences, and the exactness of what happened is lost to the conscious memory.
What is retained is the sensation of love, the brightness of the light, the feelings of bonding and the desire to be n this familiar place. Those are never lost or distorted because they are faculties of the soul, not mental processes dependent upon the operation of the third-density brain or the psyche. The soul-level assimilation of the sensations is not distorted, and therefore the feelings attached to the visit remain totally accurate.
The visit is recoded in his lifeprint in the Akashic Records exactly as it happened as well as how he remembered it, and both versions will be part of the life review process. Also, the people who taked with him will accurately remember what transpired, and when those same souls meet after that person’s transition, they can attest to the actual happenings. But the ultimate proof is this: After transition, eventually he will have totally clear and complete meoy of that brief visit and also the knowledge that his memories after returning to Earth were faulty. No other confirming source will be necessary.
Their sensations are valid, their feelings about those sensations are vital, and the experiences themselves bring wisdom essential for the individual’s spiritual growth. As for ultimate value, the profoundess of the experience heightens the person’s awareness of his soul connection with God.”
