Near Death Experience
Embraced By the light is still the most profound and complete near death experience since its publishing in 1992. Dr. Melvin Morse says in the foreword to the book, “I learned more about near - death experiences from reading Embraced By The Light than from any other experience in my life, including ten years of studying near death experiences and interviewing children and adults who have survived clinical death. Almost twenty tears of scientific research has documented that these experiences are a natural and normal process.” He says that he used to think that when we die we enter into the darkness and end our lives; “As a critical care physician I had seen many children and adults die and never had any reason to think otherwise.”
“We desperately need to reeducate ourselves that we are spiritual beings as well as biological machines. So many of our society`s problems, including the crisis in health care, death with dignity, the cult of greed which has bankrupted our economy, the national shame of homeless women and children, all stem from the lack of understanding that we are spiritual beings who are mutually dependent upon each other.”
“Joseph Campbell, the great mythologist, stated that many of our modern problems, from drug addiction to the violence in our inner cities come directly from our collective lack of spiritual vision. We have forgotten that our ordinary lives are spiritually important.” “There is a great secret contained in Embraced By The Light. It is a secret that you already know. It is something that the great prophets and spiritual leaders have tried to tell us for thousands of years. Betty Eadie learned it by nearly dying. It has the power to change your life. It is actually a journey into the meaning of this life.”
Melvin Morse, M.D.
Embraced by the Light brings a clear view about the other world that we came from and will return to, and answers some basic questions about the meaning of life and the real reasons behind the hardships that human beings face through their trials on earth and their significance for their spiritual maturing, and other timeless issues.
Betty Eadie describes through her experience how she found out that we existed before our earthly lives, and that we came together in missions that would facilitate for us sharing in the building of earth and to evolve spiritually, she also found out that God and Christ were separate beings.
“All people as spirits in the pre-mortal world took part in the creation of the earth. We were thrilled to be part of it. We were with God, and we knew that he created us, that we were his very own children. He was pleased with our development and was filled with absolute love for each one of us. Also, Jesus Christ was there, I understood, to my surprise, that Jesus was a separate being from God, with his own divine purpose, and I knew that God was our mutual father. My protestant upbringing had taught me that God the father and Jesus Christ were one being. As we assembled, the father explained that coming to earth for a time would further our spiritual growth. Each spirit who was to come to earth assisted in planning the conditions on earth, including the laws of mortality which would govern us. These included the laws of physics as we know them, the limitations of our bodies, the spiritual powers that we would be able to access. We assisted God in the development of plants and animal life that would be here. Everything was created of spirit matter before it was created physically- solar systems, suns, moons, stars, planets, mountains, rivers, seas, etc. I saw the process, and then, to further understand it, I was told by the Savior that the spirit creation could be compared to one of our photographic prints; the spirit creation would be like a sharp, brilliant print, and the earth would be like its dark negative. This earth is only a shadow of the beauty and glory of its spirit creation, but it is what we needed for our growth. It is important that I understand that we all assisted in creating our conditions here. ”
From the message of Embraced by the Light and truths in the Quran
The fact that death and life were created for a purpose, to test us
“Then I began to see images in my mind of a time long ago, of an existence before my life on earth.”
“The fact of a pre-earth life crystallized in my mind, and I saw that death was actually a “rebirth” into a greater life of understanding and knowledge that stretched forward and backward through time.”
067.002 Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed, and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving.
035.037 … did We not grant you a life long enough, so that he who would remember in it should have remembered and the warner came unto you…
And that all humans, before this material creation had witnessed that God is their creator
“All people as spirits in the pre-mortal world took part in the creation of the earth. We were thrilled to be part of it, we were with God, and we knew that he created us”.
007.172 And when your Lord took from the children of Adam, from their backs, their descendants, and made them bear witness against their own souls: Am I not your Lord? They said: Yes! We bear witness. Lest you should say on the Day of Judgment: Surely we were heedless of this.
That the messengers of God had a covenant with God before creation, and that they are alive and residing in the other heavens still watching over us
“He had chosen from before the creation of the world to be our savior”.
“His mission was to come into the world to teach love”.
003.081 When Allah took the covenant of the prophets, saying: "For What I have given you of Book and Wisdom; then come to you a messenger, confirming what is with you; do you believe in him and render him help." Allah said: "Do you agree, and take this my Covenant as binding on you?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses."
017.055 And Your Lord is Best Aware of all who are in the heavens and the earth. And We preferred some of the prophets above others, and unto David We gave the Psalms.
077.011 And when the messengers are appointed a time.
077.012 For what day are they deferred?
077.013 For the Day of Decision.
And that people knew their messenger before they came to earth
“I felt his enormous spirit and knew that I had always been a part of him”.
“There was no questioning who he was. I knew that he was my savior,”
“I knew that I had known him from the beginning, from long before my earth life, because my spirit remembered him”.
023.069 Or do they not recognize their messenger that they deny him?
042.023 … Say no reward do I ask of you for it except the love of the near of kin …
And that they had bonds and were relatives
“Through divine knowledge we knew what many of our tests and experiences would be, and we prepared accordingly. We bonded with others –family members and friends –to help us complete our missions”.
033.006 The prophet is closer to the believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers, and the possessors of blood-relations among each other have closer personal ties in Allah’s book, than believers and migrants, except that you should do kindness to your friends, that was written in the Book.
