An Enormous Bright Light

...the mist started being infiltrated with enormous light
and the light just got brighter and brighter and brighter
and, it is so bright but it doesn't hurt your eyes,
but it's brighter than anything
you've ever encountered in your whole life.
At that point, I had no consciousness anymore of having a body.
It was just pure consciousness.
And this enormous bright light seemed almost to cradle me.
I just seemed to exist in it
and be a part of it and be nurtured by it
and the feeling just became more and more and more
ecstatic and glorious and perfect...

I remember I knew that everything,
everywhere in the universe was OK,
that the plan was perfect...

And the whole time I was in this state, it seemed infinite.
It was timeless. I was just an infinite being in perfection...

My Life Passed Before Me

...the closer this light got to me,
the more awesome and the more pure this love...

"my life passed before me."
But it was not my life that passed before me
nor was it a three-dimensional caricature of the events of my life.
What occurred was every emotion I ever felt in my life, I felt.
And my eyes were showing me
the basis of how that emotion affected my life.
What my life had done so far to affect other people's lives
using the feeling of pure love that was surrounding me
as a point of comparison.
And I had done a terrible job.

An Infinite World

...it wasn't just a light,
it was a protective passage of energy
with an intense brightness at the end
which I wanted to look into, to touch.
Only the sounds of serenity,
of a strange music like I had never heard.
A soothing symphony of indescribable beauty
blended with the light...

As I reached the source of the light I could see in...
It was a giant infinite world
of calm, and love and energy and beauty...
It was all being, all beauty, all meaning for existence...

Absolute Total Knowledge

It's an extremely brilliant light...
...this most magnificent, just gorgeous, beautiful,
white or blue-white light...

...this wonderful, wonderful feeling of this light...
It's almost like a person.
It is not a person, but it is a being of some kind.
It is a mass of energy...
It is something to communicate to and acknowledge.
And also in size, it just covers the entire vista before you.
And it totally engulfs whatever the horizon might be...

You have the feeling of absolute pure love...

...in communication with absolute, total knowledge...
It can be on any subject that you don't even know anything about,
that you are not in the proper position to understand
and the light will give you the instantaneous correct answer
and make you understand it.
You can think of any question..
and immediately know the answer to it...

...the atmosphere, the energy, it's total pure energy,
it's total knowledge, it's total love, pure love...

Music, Colors, Source, Living Beings

I became aware of beautiful colors
which were all colors of the rainbow.
They were magnified in crystallized light
and beamed with a brilliance in every direction.
It was as if all this light was coming at me through a prism
made by a most beautiful and purified diamond,
and yet at the same time it was as if I were at the center...

...filled with a music so beautiful
no composer could ever duplicate it.
It too was not of this world.
It was soothing, gentle, warm
and seemed to come from a source deep within me...

My awareness stretched out in all three hundred sixty degrees.
It was as if I was the center of a lotus flower
which was unfolding its beauty around me in every direction...

In the middle of one circle was a most beautiful being.
It was neither a man nor a woman, but it was both...
An immense, radiant love poured from it.
An incredible light shone through every single pour of its face.
The colors of the light were magnificent, vibrant and alive.
The light radiated outward. It was a brilliant white
superimposed with what I can only describe as a golden hue.
I was filled with an intense feeling of joy and awe.
I was consumed with an absolutely inexpressible amount of love.
I had the overpowering feeling
that I was in the presence of the source of my life...

The second circle surrounded the first.
It it I became aware of six shimmering
mother-of-pearl-like impressions
which unfolded and opened up in the way
the petals of a freshly created flower open up in the sun.
They were living beings.
Their beauty, charm, splendid emanating colors,
and the closeness I felt to them was breathtaking.
From beyond this impression,
I became aware of the most powerful, radiant
brilliant white light.
It totally absorbed my consciousness.
It shone through this glorious scene
like the sun rising on the horizon
through a veil which had suddenly opened.
The magnificent light seemed to be pouring
from the very center of the consciousness I was in
and to shine out in every direction
through the infinite expanses of the universe.
I became that it was part of all living things
and that all living things were part of it.
I knew it was omnipotent,
that it represented infinite divine love .
It was if my heart wanted to leap our of my body towards it.
It was almost as though I had met my Maker...
My only desire was to have more and more of it
and to bathe in it forever.
