Woman Dies; Shocked by What She Saw on the Other Side (Powerful NDE) #Part1

Hello, my name is Sharon Milliman and I have had four near-death experiences. The first one happened when I was 13. I was taking swimming lessons and the instructor wanted me to dive head first in the 10-foot section of the pool. I watched all the other kids do it, but there was something that really frightened me about it. I had a foreboding. I just couldn't do it. It just didn't feel right to me. He told me that if I didn't do the dive, he was going to throw me in. He put his hands on me and he threw me in the 10-foot section of the pool. I was really scared and I kept going down under the water. I took in a bunch of water and I ended up on the bottom of the pool. While I was laying on the bottom, I just felt warm and cozy. I wasn't scared anymore, but I could hear everything that was happening around the pool. I saw the water rippling on the top and people were screaming. My mom was sitting in the balcony on the opposite of the three-foot section of the pool where the parents were sitting. I could see that she had stood up and she was leaning over the banister and she had this horrified look on her face. There was an instructor who had the little babies and she was in the three-foot section and she screamed at my instructor. She said, Bob, go in and get her. Then all of a sudden, I could see his face and he was just frozen. He couldn't move. All the while this was going on, it was really weird. I didn't know that I was hovering over my body. I was so literal and I had never heard of any of this stuff. I didn't know what to make of all of it. While all of that stuff was going on, there was this light. At first, it was small and it looked like a light bulb. I thought to myself, what is a light bulb doing in a pool? That's kind of dangerous. Then the light kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger. It was so warm. There was love coming through that light and I didn't feel afraid. I don't know if I was going up to it or it was coming down to me, but it just kept coming closer and closer and closer. The light was a very brilliant white. As brilliant as it was, it didn't hurt my eyes. It was very soft. That light was probably this close to my face. Then I heard what sounded like a metal door slamming shut and it echoed. That's when the lifeguard in the five-foot section who had the middle-aged kids, he had jumped in and had grabbed me and was taking me to the side of the pool. He was squeezing me and water was coming out. Then he proceeded to do CPR. He brought me back. Well, I guess he was doing CPR all along. That's all I can tell you about that. When I finally came to, I looked around and I saw everybody. There was a ton of people standing around me. I finally could see my mom. When we left, I never went back. I never did learn how to swim. My mom and I never talked about it. I didn't quite know what to make of it. I think that she was just so terrified watching her child drown. We never talked about what actually happened. I never got a chance to tell her what I saw about the light and the love that came through that light and how warm it was. I never was able to put a name to what actually happened. That was the first one. The second one happened when in 2005, I was talking on a cordless phone on the back steps of my house. They were concrete steps. It had started to rain. Where I was sitting had a little overhang. The roof was hanging over a little bit. I was protected from the rain. I continued talking on the phone. Then it started to thunder and lightning. I heard a rumble in the distance. Then I heard a loud crack. A lightning bolt came out of the sky and hit my right arm. When it did, then it traveled underneath the house. It hit the transformer that was in front of our house. I felt this burning, searing, agonizing pain in my arm. It crossed my chest. It was absolutely horrific. That lasted for maybe a minute. Then my spirit just peeled up out of my body. I just came right up out of myself like peeling a banana. Then I went into my house. At this point, I didn't know that I was dead. I went into my house. I'm looking around. Everything had a burnt gold look to it. I looked at the curtains. They weren't my curtains. Then I went into the dining room. I looked at the furniture. It wasn't my furniture. I thought, oh my goodness, what's going on? Because it was my house. It looked like my house, but nothing in it was my stuff. I went in from the dining room into the living room. I heard this old-time radio show playing. It sounded like something back in the 20s or 30s. I couldn't find the radio anywhere. I kept hearing this noise. None of the furniture in the living room or in the front room, the parlor, which is what I called the parlor, none of that stuff was mine. I started getting really confused. I was starting to really freak out. Just as I was beginning to lose it, that's when this huge, huge, loving, formless presence appeared. I knew from a deep soul knowing that this presence that had no form but was just absolutely huge and was pouring this love. It was just pure, pure love into me and just took away my fear. I wasn't afraid anymore. It was just instantly gone. I knew that presence was God or what I call God. Anyway, he and I or God and I began to move sideways. We didn't go up. We didn't go down. We went sideways. We were moving very, very quickly laterally through these pink and gold clouds. When we got to the end of the clouds, there was this magnificent garden. It was the most beautiful thing that I had ever seen. There were flowers and trees and birds. They were rolling hills and valleys and plains. There were places where animals could run. The colors were so rich and so vibrant. The pinks were pinker, and the reds were redder, and the yellows were more yellow. There was a stream, and I could hear the water going over the rocks. My senses were so heightened and so aware, but I could see very far distances. I could see behind me without even turning my head. I could hear. I could see. I could touch. I was standing in grass, and I could feel the grass on my feet. As I'm standing in the garden with this huge formless loving presence, two men approached me. They were just absolutely beautiful. They were glowing. Their skin was glowing. They looked like they'd been out on the beach all day long. They were just beautiful. When they smiled, I recognized who they were. They were my baby brothers who had died when they were babies, but now they were fully grown men. They looked like maybe between 25 and 30. They were wearing this expensive, it looked like very expensive, ivory linen clothing. I could tell what the weave pattern was, the weave that made up the clothing. It was a herringbone weave. For some reason, that was important. They wanted me to know that. At the time, I had no idea what that meant. It was like they took a little snapshot and stuck it up in my face. I was like, okay. Then they were walking with me, and they were taking me around and showing me the different buildings. There were magnificent buildings that were made of marble that had archways and columns and intricate, detailed designs etched in the marble. They were showing me these buildings, and there was one that looked like it was a spiritual hospital. It had these magnificent pools of living water. The spiritual hospital was for people who died a very traumatic, very quick death. There were mentors and teachers and angels and people who had passed on previously, loved ones who were there. They were specifically trained to help bring these people gently to the awareness of where they were and what had happened. I realized that heaven was a very gentle place. It was all about gently getting people acquainted to where they are and teaching them. People in heaven had jobs. They didn't just sit around on clouds playing harps and eating bonbons. People were very active. There were people that were there welcoming people who had passed on and were new coming in. Those that needed extra help, they were there. I saw a place where babies and children go. It was magnificent. The children were playing and running around. They were just so happy. They too had people that were trained to take care of them and help them to grow, not only physically up to a certain age, but spiritually. In heaven, it's all about spiritual. Everything is spiritual growth. There were people everywhere. Everyone had a physical body, but it was a little different than the kind of bodies we have here, where we're kind of weighted down. It's heavy here. In heaven, it was very light and bright and airy. When my brothers had told me that I had died, I looked down the front of me to see if I too still had a body. I did. I could see my hair coming down the front of me. I saw my clothes and my feet in the grass. I was glowing just like everybody else was glowing. I realized that I still felt like me. I still looked like me, only a better version of me. I was still me. I still had my identity that made me the special person that I am. Everybody else had their identities because that seemed to be important. I was happy about that. The only thing is that I wasn't concerned about what I looked like or whether I was perfect or whether I had my hair done or my makeup on or anything like that because I felt such love and acceptance like I have never felt in my whole life. I was speechless because I'd never had that. It was so enormous. It was so huge. That loving presence that was with me was just pouring, just continuously pouring this unconditional love into me and just filling me up with this love and this peace and this bliss. Everybody else was doing the same thing. There's no words to adequately describe that kind of feeling and to be loved that much. My brothers continued taking me around and I could see some of the buildings on the outskirts of what I called a glorious city. I could see inside the city and there was a golden wall around the city, a very thick tall golden wall, but I was able to see beyond that wall and inside the city there were many beautiful buildings but in the center of the city was this huge round building that had a golden dome on the top of it. And then a little bit on the outskirts of the city there was a place that I call the Hall of Knowledge. It was like a library and the walls were of the rich mahogany and it was very tall. It was a very big building and it had books that went from floor to ceiling. It was like billions and billions and billions and billions of books and it was like on every subject you could possibly want to know. You can learn about anything you want to learn about, anything you have ever dreamed of knowing. You can find it in this Hall of Knowledge. Then there was another building they took me to and it too had mahogany walls and paintings on the walls and chandeliers as big as my house and there were people and they were beautiful but they were having a big party and I kind of put my head in the door you know we were standing in the doorway and I wanted to go in but there was a man in the corner and he was playing a piano and there was a crystal vase on top of the piano with these beautiful red roses spilling out onto the piano. There was a candelabra on the piano. The women were dressed in these beautiful colorful gowns and the men were dressed in fancy suits or you know tuxes or whatever and across the room there were this row of tables and they had this expensive linen you know covering the tables and silver trays with food of everything. I mean anything that you could possibly want fruits and veggies and pastas and you know just whatever you want breads and cheeses and just anything you could possibly want was on these trays and there were some people that were eating and some people were drinking and some people were laughing and talking and some people were dancing so I mean it was just it was magnificent and there was a the floor was like glass and there was this pink plush carpet on the floor and it was just it was just magnificent so I'm not sure who the party was for but it was very very very earth-like and very festive. Also I saw houses so I learned that you know people do have houses and I saw one house that was sitting on a bluff and it had it was made of stone and as the light shone on the house the house would turn different colors you know the stones would glisten and turn different colors and there was an ocean that was below the house and the waves were coming up onto the rocks and then behind that house there was another house and it looked like an old made out of castle stones or something and but it reminded me like of an old English cottage you know and it had beautiful rose gardens in the in the back of you know like in the backyard. I noticed that about halfway between the entrance where we entered the garden and the glorious city about halfway in between there was an old field stone wall that was just absolutely magnificently beautiful because it had these pink roses growing up and over this this old field stone wall it was so beautiful. So as we're walking along my brothers and after they had told they told me that I had died and I thought well if this is death this is okay I can do this you know this is pretty good yeah I can handle this and um you know and I and and having this new body and just all the love and everything and it was just I yeah I was fine with it. So I heard music and it was like everything in heaven has its own vibration the colors even have a vibration so you have the leaves on the trees and you has has a certain vibration which makes a sound and then you have each blade of grass has a different vibration which makes a sound and then there was a stream that just sparkled like there was a billion diamonds in this water you know so the water has sound and the rock that the water was going over the rocks had a sound and um the birds they had a sound and everything had its own vibrational sound the pinks the yellows the purples everything had its own sound and when you put all of those sounds together it sounds like a magnificent orchestra and choir and everything in heaven was singing praises to God it was so beautiful and it was I mean I was just like you know it's this total awe and um so as we're walking through and I'm just like a feather on the breath of God just floating along there there was a grove of trees over in the corner and it was Jesus I saw him coming out of the grove of trees and he walks up to me and when he walks up to me my brothers leave and I don't know where they're I had no idea where they went he he smiled at me he was so beautiful and this was my first clue that I was going to be sent back but it went right over my head because I was in such awe you know he was just so beautiful and the love that I felt coming from him was the same kind of love that I felt coming from this formless presence and he said to me I'm gonna be with you don't be afraid I love you and I'm with you don't be afraid you know and then he walked with me over to this wooded glen and I could see the the beautiful light coming through the the pine trees the tall trees and it there were pine cones and pine needles on the ground and these little blue flowers were popping up underneath the pine needles and there was a log laying there so I sat down on the log and when I did that Jesus walked away and there was a man sitting on the other end of the log and I looked over and I knew it was one of those heart things you I just knew this man was God now I've had people make comments about that so I want to explain that I know that God is spirit or whatever name people give God you know it doesn't matter what name you use God is God or source or spirit or Allah or great spirit or whatever people call him there's only one and it doesn't matter what name you use but he is spirit he is not he is genderless he has no shape he is what he is but he is the creator of everything and if he chooses to take on a shape then that's his choice and he can look like anything he wants to if he had chose to show up as a burning bush like he did with Moses I had just been struck by lightning so I would have took off running as fast as I could and there would have not been a conversation so and I think he knew that because he knows our hearts and he appeared to me in a way that I needed and he does that he will and he doesn't have to do the same thing twice you know just because it says on the bible certain things he does not have to do the same thing twice he can do anything he wants so he appeared to me as a beautiful loving fatherly type young fatherly type man and he had a I mean he had a really really wonderful personality and he smiled a lot and he laughed and we talked a lot but he asked me a question he said what would you do if it was just me and you and I didn't I was like what what I didn't know what he I had no idea what he was talking about and he said it again what would you do if it was just me and you and I still didn't know how to answer him because I I didn't know what he was looking for uh I felt like it was a trick question that I was gonna fail the test or something he said no parents no husband no children no friends no one just me and you and I was just like I I have no idea what what you're looking for and an answer so he said okay come with me so we get up and we walk a little ways into the wooded glen until we find a clearing and then he raises his hand and he kind of goes like this and when he does the sky opens up kind of like and he unzipped the sky and it just opened right up and I saw the vastness of the universe and I could see the planets and the stars and the swirling gases and and that kind of thing and I didn't realize how big and empty all of that was and I looked at him and I said if it's all of that and just me and you you would be so sick of me after the first 10 minutes with all my questions and chatter that you would not like me anymore and so he I said no I don't think so so he kind of threw his head back and when he did he laughed and when he laughed I started laughing and then I because his laughter was so contagious it was just a joyful laughter you know and I um I started laughing and then I realized how ridiculous I sounded and I was like oh my god what did you just say and so I we went back and we sat on the log and he asked me the question again what would you do if it was just me and you so I'm standing by this tree or well actually I was sitting down but I was looking at this tree that was right in front of me okay and I saw the the roots beneath the ground and I saw the detail of the bark and I could see the the life-giving veins in the leaves and I could see that the you know every part of the tree and how it all worked and how you know the leaves clean the air and we breathe the air and how everything is connected to everything else and how everything is dependent upon everything else and how we all everything works together to me that was just such a beautiful thing to see in such great detail and I looked at God and I said God you made this tree you are in this tree so when I see this tree I see you he said yes that's right
