Self-String

My life did "flash" before me; however this "review" did not stop at my birth. My recollection was going back in time and "space" well before my birth. 10a/4018 [Link is to original report.]

I sensed/felt/saw people all around me and one of them walked up to me and said hello as if I knew him. Suddenly I did. I had met this man before, when I died when I was four. 19a/4006

I thought that this "voice" which came from inside was another "self," a kind of personal elfin spirit with the task of protecting me. ... The only question is: Who is this voice which protects me? Is it another (unconscious) me? The spirit of a living person close to me? Or of a deceased loved one? God in person? 22a/3992

As Jesus held me, I looked into his eyes. I will never forget how wonderful and awesome his eyes were! The first thing I said to him was, "Do you hate me because I am a drug Addict?" I will never forget what He said to me: "No, I only want you to know that I love you." There were other things said and then He started to set me down and I said, "Please don't leave me," and He said, "I will never give you more than you can handle." Then I was back in my body. 28a/3989

I recall clear as if it had happened yesterday: sitting up out of my body and looking at a man who was sitting on the chair close to where my body was. I recall laughing as if I was incredibly happy to see him. I felt like I had known him my entire life. 31a/3985

Then I heard a voice directly in my mind. I clearly perceived that it came to me from above-left side. This being I did not perceive as being "more" than myself. It was more like a "similar" to myself. 36a/3982

A lady appeared to tell me that I had a choice, and that I was young. ... Who is she? I don't recognize her, but she seems to know me. 39a/3897

[At what time during the experience were you at your highest level of consciousness and alertness?] When I heard the voice speaking to me, very clearly. My name was repeated as if the voice was certain of my full attention. 59a/3746

I was aware of a presence that was at once familiar and loving and kind and all powerful and so very immense that there will never be any words appropriate to describe this thing. 76a/3958

[Did you meet or see any other beings?] I was talked to from within. After it happened, and when I learned religion, I thought it to be of God. I personally feel it to be more of an inner conscience 'talking' to me. But I never saw anyone/thing else. 84a/3913

God came. I couldn't see him. But, I knew he was there. He kept telling me how I was special and that I shouldn't think so lowly about myself. I felt this being infused in me and I felt very loved. 15b/4198

There's someone there with me, a presence I can only feel. Suddenly I know and understand everything. I know what everything is like, and I know I'm in the realm of death. The "journey" continues and I'm a small child and my "current" self all at the same time. I just AM, it's impossible to describe. We get to this enormous light and I feel that my companion gets there before me, and I just know it's a boy my age: 17 years. We are greeted by a "being" that is light, it's like a glow coming from it. I don't know if it's a she or a he. But it radiates so much love and safety it's indescribable. The boy "disappears" into the light, but for some reason I'm not allowed to come along. I so much want to come too, it's so wonderfully comfortable. I feel so absolutely great. I stay by the light being, I can't get past it, I'm told it's not my time yet. 16b/2795

It is rather difficult to express in words, it's one of the few glimpses I've had of my higher self. 23b/2978

I saw some things about my family's move to Anacortes that would take place in a year, and I also saw a woman who might be me grown up. 91b/2014

It was as though the entity emitting that incredible love for me knew me the best. ... So, in a sense, I was sort of drawn to my closest relative, even though there was no doubt it was not the type of relative we experience in the physical world. It nevertheless felt more real than any physical relationship. 3c/4022

There was a being (or energy force) on my left. I felt very close to this being (wanting to be with it as one would a spouse, etc.) 6d/Feb. 25, 2002

All the time there was a being with me. I realized that it always had been with me! 54d/Sept. 2, 2003

The clouds seemed to part enough just to show a hint of a shadow of two people. It seemed to be a man with a woman standing by his side. At that same time, I realized there was someone right in front of me. The clouds also thickened around that shadow so I could not see him. There are no words to describe the incredibly intense love I felt, standing there in front of him. No one could ever imagine a love so powerfully strong. 69d/March 4, 2004

Childing, we are yourselves of your own far future. We are who you are learning to become. Without us, you cannot be. Without you, we are not. We are who Jesus referred to as "My Father." 2e/Childing

When I first saw him I felt as though I knew him. I hugged him; the love I had for him was very strong. He felt closer to me than my own family. 5e/Billions

As I waited, I remembered what I had forgotten, which was everything. I was astonished at the simplicity of why, what, who, where...all of it. I knew it all. I remember thinking that it is so weird that we don't remember any of it on the [physical] side. It's so apparent, yet we cannot see it while living in the [physical] form. At that very moment I likened it to an ant that could never perceive a human in its entirety, it's complexity, or it's completeness, yet we are right there to be seen if only the ant had the capacity. 23e/All One

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention one point. The voice…it seemed to know me. That’s the feeling I got. 36e/Someone

From ages three to eight, I had an "imaginary" friend I named Mr. Cardine. He would take me to places outside my body and tell me what was going to happen to me and other family members. 40e/Mr. Cardine

Then five shadows began to form in the distance and come toward me, but they stopped. They were familiar to me, but I did not recognize them. 57e/Warmth

I had heard this wonderful, familiar voice, "It is not yet your time to be here. You must go back." 64e/Mission

He said, "I'd expect you to argue for your own case!" I was overwhelmed by how intimately he knew me. 84e/Surrounded

Then I heard what I thought was a lady's voice. ... As I got closer I could hear the words this lady was speaking to a figure of a man next to her. She kept saying, "There she is. Oh! Isn't she lovely. Look at her." I felt as though I knew her, yet didn't. 90e/Shed Body

There was someone I liked beside me, but I sensed them rather than saw them directly, and did not know who they were. 93e/Sensed Someone

There was a man standing there who had a white garment that resembled a monk's habit without the hood. I knew him, but I didn't know him. 36f/Joyce

I "recognized" that this entity had been with me all my life. I don't know if it was what people call a guardian angel or if it was just another disassociated aspect of my psyche. However, I suddenly remembered that this entity had "spoken" to me many times earlier in my life. 56f/Anonymous 2
