Does anyone have information on near death experiences and it's relation to paranormal activity?

Question

In the past I've heard (though it might just be memories I have of movies, lol) of people having near death experiences, and then seeing/hearing/feeling unexplainable things. Almost as if their experience connected them with spirits or something.

My friend and I sort of dabble in "ghost hunting". We basically go to different sites at night to see if we can see or feel anything (we both seem to have a higher perception of ghosts and whatnot). We've also recorded some EVPs. One of which was VERY clear.

Now the reason I ask, is because I recently attempted suicide. I came very close to death. I'm fine now, but the other day, I was at my brother's, and I saw something. I had just come out of the bathroom, and as I stepped into the hall, a tall dark figure rushed at me. I thought it was my friend trying to scare me, but he was in the other room. I've never had one come to ME before. And this wasn't transparent like we're used to seeing. It was solid. Does anyone have info related to this?

Answer 1

I really think you have a predisposition for seeing stuff and your brush with death has opened up a door to someone who did commit suicide.  Your best bet is to read "Life After Life" by Raymond Moody and "Journey of Souls" by Michael Newton.  Also, if you want to REALLY get into it... attempt an Out of Body Experience.  If you can achieve it, you can talk to this person and find out what he/she wants.  

Tips on OBE... sit (or laydown) with no noise and low light.  Either concentrate entirely on every breath (while blocking out every other thought from your mind) or concentrate on saying one word silently to yourself over and over again.  If you do it for like 15 minutes you will start to feel a vibration.  Don't be scared just go with it.... soon you will be out of your body and will have a chance to talk to this shadowy figure.  Also, even if you can't do the OBE... you will definitely enhance your psychic ability.

Peace and please stay...you are special. :)

You are right about near death.  I'm a near death survivor, drowning as a small child, and I have lots of paranormal stuff happening around me.  I am also a psychic.  Many psychics are survivors of near death.  The theory is that ghost or spirits know that you have crossed over and came back, so they are attracted to you. Some say they are trying to get you to help them with contacting the living.

The figure you sounds like a black ghost or shadow person as they are called now.  I see them too and I think they are creepy buggers, I could live with out them.  See---

NDEs are considered paranormal, try Edgar Cayce's website, A.R.E. There's a number of reputable investigators out there, TAPS is one. Good wishes.

Answer 4

First thing I want to say being a psychic medium and the organizer of a "Ghost Hunting Group" is you need to protect yourself!  When you "dabble" in ghost hunting, there are many energies out there that can lower your energy causing depression and other not-so-nice effects.  Psychic protection is very simple, but very necessary-google "psychic protection" and look for anything that talks about protection with the white light.  And just to be clear, the negative energy I'm talking about is not necessarily an evil spirit, but the ones you communicate with on ghost hunts are what we call "Earthbound Spirits" and many of them are confused and can suck your energy if you don't protect yourself.

I do believe that near death experience changes most people who encounter it.  One of my favorite books is Embraced by the Light by Bettie Eadie.  There are tons and tons of books out there on this topic.  And have you seen White Noise II? It's pretty interesting.  

Feel free to email me if you want more info or have questions.

I have seen this before, too. The tall dark figure is Death. Since you tried and almost succeeded in taking your life, Death only got a taste of you. He is coming at you to try and redeem what he believes is his. If this continues to happen, or if the apparitions begin to make physical contact, then you should try to seek a paranormal investigator. In the end, usually resorting to a Catholic priest. Unfortunately, they are usually the ones to get the job done correctly.

Spirits are all around us, at all times. We have our loved ones from heaven, and our own spiritual Guide.. Black/shadow people that we see is actually not a bad thing. It just means that you were not perfectly intune to the spirits vibration. This may happen b.c of stress or other emotions that are causing problems, but sometimes we just aren't ready to see the Other Side as well as we'd like.

It is like a Tv station that goes fuzzy on you and someone tells you it's b.c the VCR is on th ewrong channel. You change that-and you change the picture you see.

A psychic who has had a near death experience-is Danion Brinkly. He was electricuted, died, and witnessed heaven before coming back. He's changed his life because of the messages he's heard from heaven and started up many healing centers.

I would not recomend ghost 'hunting' (which tbh is a terrible  word to use for lost human beings) b.c of the risks it has on an entity attaching their energy to you once they are 'talked' to.

Making contact with an Earthbound is risky-they drain energy, make ppl depressed and much more. The can cause depression or they can get an easier ride off of people who are troubled. It's BEST for you to do a cleansing  and psychic shielding-and not attempt to communicate with Earthbounds until you are healthy mentally, emotionally, and physically and are WITH professional medium who deals with Earthbounds.

In hte mean time, it's okay to talk to your OWN spirit guides and angels.

Answer 7

Try books By Dr. Raymond Moody. He's the original researcher on life after death studies/ near death experiences. He went in as a skeptic and found some pretty conclusive information that led him to believe they are real.

Answer 8

You need to find someone to talk to.Anyone telling you death is after you.They are very irresponsible.That's the nicest word I can think of to describe them.This fascination with ghosts is not doing you any good.They don't exist and death does not stalk people.Find someone responsible and talk.If the say they are psychic or into the paranormal,avoid them.
