hey since the dawn of time people have wondered about the meaning of life and asked this big question what's on the other side of death most religions have described some kind of answer to this the kingdom of heaven or Nirvana or something of that nature and what if they're all right what if every answer about this ethereal realm on the other side could not only be known but verified well one of the best ways to know about what's on this other side are to hear the testimonials that come from others who have been there themselves

I was I was out exploring life i' traveled the world done many different jobs and I used to do bodybuilding or amateur bodybuilding and back in January 18th 2003 it started with a new supplement that me and a really good friend of mine had purchased online we decided hey we're going to take this on a Saturday we're going to go up and see a car show do a workout at the gym and and just have a fun Saturday so we get there to hit my buddy's place we took this new supplement and immediately felt something
was wrong it felt almost as if cold ice started pumping through our veins it felt like our whole body was starting to get cold and I explained to my buddy that hey we should probably go get something to eat otherwise we're going to be really sick so we went down the street a few blocks to this fast food joint we go in there and as soon as I go in I went straight into the bathroom I I felt like I was going to throw up or vomit my buddy he went in he collapsed on the
first Booth he could reach and he started to throw up he started to vomit on the on the table the manager of the restaurant called 911 they got him hauled away in an ambulance almost immediately right away and he he turned out to be totally fine they released him from the hospital the very next day but meanwhile me inside that bathroom I myself start to vomit while I'm passed out on my back and what happens is when you vomit on your back like that you aspirate you suffocate and that's what happened to me I I
died right there and then on the the bathroom floor I suffocated and about 45 minutes later the manager of the restaurant finally opened up that bathroom after a customer kept asking him to open it for him he opened it and sees this dead body on the ground he called 911 and and from my point of view I went directly from Consciousness to feeling dizziness as if the room is spinning on me and then out of nowhere I'm watching I'm just watching this scene unfold in front of me and I'm watching a dead body on the
ground I'm watching a manager call 911 I'm watching even the customer asking to have the manager open the door and it's very weird and odd to me because I can hear every thought in anyone's head that is near me and I'm watching everything from above which was also very odd to me but it didn't dawn on me that this dead body I was seeing was me because the body didn't look like me the neck had actually already swollen wider than the jaw there was very very pet purple and yellow tones on the skin it didn't
look it it almost didn't look human and I I didn't think for a second that that was me because me was up here watching what was going on I watched them bag this body when the ambulance comes they pronounce it dead they put it in a body bag they put it on a gurnie and they put it in the back of the ambulance meanwhile the the other Medics there's three Medics that show up there's a rookie who's brand new he's sitting in the back with the body the other two are out getting paperwork done and
I could feel his dismay because he felt like I wanted to be a a a medic I wanted to be an EMT to make a difference and he felt that he wasn't making that difference he felt that these veteran Medics didn't try for very long to resuscitate the body he felt they should have tried for 20 minutes not just 5 minutes and they're going down the street as they pull away from the scene I see this glow start to form and it really looked like a little miniature Sun starting to Glow in the heart space
on the rookie medic who's sitting in the back of the ambulance I see it start to glow and it got brighter and brighter and then I heard very loudly this one's not dead I didn't know where that came from but I definitely heard it and I could tell that the rookie medic heard it too now he froze he kind of froze as soon as that was said but he didn't do anything about it I could I could hear him shrugging it off as that must have just been your imagination but they went another block down
the road and the light started to Glow even brighter and I heard for a second time this one's not dead and on that second time he responded he reacted he unzipped the body bag he undid a couple of straps through around the body so that he could reach in and feel around the neck area for a pulse he didn't feel a pulse but it didn't stop him he kept going he was going to attempt resuscitation so he forced oxygen into the lungs he hooked up uh the body to a defibrillator while the alarm is going
off and the other two Medics start just yelling at him saying you're going to get fired you got to stop this stop what you're doing you're desiccating a dead body this is illegal but he didn't care he went ahead and let the first charge happen and nothing happened after the first charge he went ahead and let it recharge for a second time and they were still chewing him out but when the second charge happened there was one single heartbeat it allowed the other two Medics to wait and watch they knew he was going to go
for a third round and right after within seconds of that Third charge there was a steady but faint heartbeat so the team began resuscitation procedures of injecting things and doing all sorts of things for the body but the body was having a really hard time with coming back it was going into seizures and they were strapping the body down I was watching the strapping going on I didn't feel anything until they got to the left arm but when they strapped the left arm I'm left-handed I felt them strapping my left arm and this was the
first inkling the first idea that what I'd been watching this whole time was my very own death this is when I went to essentially the darkest place I've ever gone in my life I had such an an ego voice going saying you're such an idiot how could you not know that what you've been watching this whole time was your own death how could you not know that and as I started to feel that and think that I then started to see in very quick flashes all the negative influences I had on other people in my
whole life the things that I did to hurt people on accident or on purpose I saw it not just through my eyes but through their eyes how it impacted them and I started to feel this voice coming out of me saying you're not worth saving look at all this bad that you've done in your life but then all of a sudden in the same speed I started to see all the good that I did and there was a lot more good than I had ever done way more and I saw how much change I was
able to impact people's lives in good ways and this love started to pour over me from behind me but it's so hard to describe in words because it's a love that we don't have here it's an unconditional pure love that doesn't exist in this space at least that we can really really feel like there and this love poured over me and this love it had such a profound effect on me I had a a pretty rough upbringing I had some Darkness inside of me and this love flushed it out sealed It Up made it whole
and all of this is happening I'm realizing that all of this love and this light and this energy is coming from behind me and I can see a man standing behind me with very pink skin very long white beard he has long white hair his eyes could Pierce you they could look through you and they could essentially know not who you thought you were but who you really were and my first thought was are you God and this gentleman just laughed he said no I'm not God then my follow-up question was you must be Jesus
then even though you don't look like Jesus you must be Jesus and he laughed at that as well and said no son I'm Not Jesus but I'm I'm here for you I'm here to be your guide I'm here to help you go wherever you want to go and he showed me he motioned I could go back to my life or I could go forward with him and he could show me what's next for me what's next in line for my life and of course I didn't want to go back to the body there was no
question because the body to me meant mistakes it meant failures it meant pain it meant struggle and so far everything that I felt from this gentleman was absolute peace unconditional love and energy and power that was coming from him and I wanted that I wanted more of that whatever that was that's what I wanted so I told him I want to go with you wherever you're going that's why I want to go and he explained to me that that we were going to start a journey this journey was going to be from a lower understanding
and a lower density to a much higher frequency and a much higher understanding that we weren't just going to travel from space to space but we're going to travel from Dimension to Dimension from low Dimension to high dimension and as we're doing that I had to raise my frequency I had to raise my dimensional vibration to be able to match his to keep going with him I had to fully Embrace these major major principles to get where we were going to go I would have thought that the first principle was going to be love but
it wasn't the first principle was authenticity that I had to realize that all of us are not authentic in this world that the most authentic people in our world in this Earthly life are the very young and the very old is because they have nothing to lose and nothing to gain by being inauthentic and he explained to me that through this life we put different facades on the outside of us we put different masks on for different people and that I needed to get to a point where I could be the same person no matter
who I was around and that was actually quite hard for me I didn't realize that I had put on so many masks and he helped me one at a time peel those all away and start building cleanly on a new foundation and and that's what he did with authenticity then he he brought me to understand the purpose of life why we come here I was taught something very different in my church and in my in my upbringing I was taught more that we're here to be proven and to be tested but it was very clear
that our life here is not a courtroom but a classroom that we're here to learn to grow to exercise the power of creation and that as we existed in heaven before here anything God wanted we wanted instantly and that for us to really grow it's just like Earth we had to leave home and it was scary we had to go through a veil of forgetfulness because that love is so strong and so powerful that even the remembrance of that love would prevent us from having true free agency we would still be making decisions out of
obligation of that love because again that love is so powerful and one of the most important things I learned was to master my thoughts because truly our thoughts themselves create they end up becoming who we are they become our character and where we go in our life and it's so important for us to come from an energy of love with our thinking especially when we think about ourselves it amplifies whatever we desire that we want to create and that brought me all the way to where I was seeing this vast planet and it was surrounded
by this almost like a cloud Mist but what was odd to me as I looked around and I could not see a son and I was I was led to know through my go his name is Drake Drake led me to know that this this space was lit from within so the light in this space of Heaven it comes from within everything that's why there there's so many colors we don't have here because the actual existence of light is different because everything glows there everything and when I say glow I don't mean like glow in
the dark glow I mean glow like our sun glows and to even bring a single blade of grass here to our Earth it would explode it because there's so much energy in a single blade of grass there and we're at such a low density here that we couldn't vibrate at that such high frequency we would be incinerated just to bring that here that's why there is this tunnel or this journey that we have to go through for us to get to heaven is we have to really ramp up our our frequency to to be able
to get there and as I did I touched down I got into heaven I got to feel the grass again the grass was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen in my entire existence the grass had a distinct loving music frequency coming from it just to even be near it you would feel connected to everything in heaven it was such a beautiful experience and as I'm I'm literally glowing in this space I'm feeling the connectedness of the grass and and all the plants and the and the water and the healing power of this water when
my guide Drake he pulls me aside and he says Vinnie this is going to be very hard but it's going to be worth it and out of nowhere I start hearing my brother's voice my brother from Earth I hear his voice as loud as he's speaking in my own ear and I hear him giving a special prayer now meanwhile I've been in a coma I've been brain dead for 3 days and my brother is standing over my body and giving me a love that I didn't know he had for me as he said this prayer
over me and he finished with the sentence I bless you to be made whole here I was in heaven I finally felt whole but this blessing to make me whole it actually tore me away from there and right before I was taken away I got this amazing hug from Drake I got to feel and understand the cosmos I got to feel and understand what all of this means why we're here why there's time why there's struggle I learned it all and I was just poed love love that I never deserved love that that I still
still strive to be worthy of today and it was just a pristine experience to feel that power such a power that I didn't know existed in all the cosmos and then I was forced back the next thing I remember I woke up I woke up out of a 3-day coma being brain dead I pulled every tube off of me every sensor off of me I felt so confined and the reason I felt so confined is is who we really are is much larger than this form so I woke up at 1:11 in the morning I
was checked out at 7:30 a.m. even though every single Department tried to resist and did not want me to go I I still signed all the waivers I got out of there and I went jogging I actually went jogging that day and had no problems whatsoever I had no residing effects of my death other than I'm a different person now [Music]
