There have been releases categorizing "Near death" or "Out of body experiences" as stress induced, etc. The tendency of science, presently limited to the three dimensional, is to categorize and label. Considering no prior drug use or religious orientation, I would like to convey two experiences of comfort and hope.

Working alone, hearing music, a thought occurred: "If there can be such beauty there must be the divine", immediately all was "light", brilliant, yet unblinding, immersion in profound compassion, acceptance, peace ... timelessness, when sensing "returning" the only desire to remain ... the fairest of days that followed ... paled in comparison.

Time passed ... Contemplating receptively, overlooking a secluded pond, upon rising, feeling a great "lightness of being", clarity, insight, oneness and tender compassion for all creatures and creation. Walking the woods, finding myself observing myself from above and behind, again timelessness, then "back". Moments later a different race of unknown appeared, blocking my path, cursing and threatening. Normal reaction: anger, fear, possibly fatal given the circumstances, yet my "being" knew only compassion and tranquility ... somehow seeing deeply and beyond. A presence ... a voice that wasn't, conveyed "all rightness", protection ... the shouting grew silent, then stares ...

In times of weariness and discouragement, I've tried to discount such experiences and others
for the small comfort of giving up, honestly I can't.

I'd always wondered what was meant by "Heaven's at hand and within" ... no longer.

All I know: There really is something wonderful beyond expression, given an open mind and heart (innocence? -- allowing the "heavenly" influences in?) anyone can experience, even normally, and by ever striving for the "higher self" -- kindness and goodness for its own sake ... ultimately become "One" with.

... and merge endlessly.
