Texas Student Dies in Car Accident : Discovers Life after Death (Near-Death Experience)

so I was very tired and I skipped coffee and I always need coffee and when I went through the first light it was yellow, the second one I looked at was red, but I didn't understand why a car was coming so fast, it was almost like they anticipated the light changing and We both hit each other at about 60 miles per hour. I immediately knew something was wrong with my body because I was slumped to one side and couldn't move. The closest thing he could say to a prayer was. God help me, control is taken out of your hands at a time like that, we spend so much of our time trying to control

life

and in that moment I knew it was all over, what happened next was out of my control in the foreigner, I grew up in the country in East Texas and had a wonderful and very free childhood in the sense that I spent a lot of time in nature, my best friend and I rode horses, we got up at six in the morning, it was good times in the summer and we would ride until it got too hot around noon, we would swim in lakes and so we would live this

life

that was very nature based and that part of my life was fantastic, the painful part of childhood was that my mother I was mentally ill and there was a lot of emotional abuse and some physical abuse, so I was isolated as an only child.

I retreated to books and stu

dies

and saw university as my way out. You know, that was my route to success. There was no other. routes like that was it, so I wrote all these essays and got scholarships worth twenty thousand dollars, you know, one essay contest after another, this was a big deal and our mailbox. I grew up very poor, it was like practically falling on top of the house. was in ruins and I thought God is the mailbox is even going to be reliable to receive these checks and just so you know I would wait by the mailbox, these checks started coming and then I knew that somehow my life was going to change and there were many things depended and weighed on going to university, it meant a lot to me.

I went to the University of Texas and it's kind of a party school, so at first my grades were really good and then they started going down my senior year. depressed. Had been through a bad breakup. I knew my alcohol and drug use was out of the ordinary in some ways. You know it was really bad. I thought I had to get my life back together and I was actually having these panic attacks about mortality because I was agnostic at the time. I really didn't believe there was a life after

death

. I studied English, so obviously I studied Walt Whitman and some spiritual writers and Mercen Thoreau and thought about what they said and that was the closest I could get.

I could get to spirituality, I thought, well, maybe I'll just merge with the grass or maybe we'll move on and in some metaphysical way, but for the most part I thought that my identity, Trisha, my Consciousness, wouldn't go on and have these moments. the ones that Think about how we just die and then I'm not going to be here anymore and this is all I have and what I'm doing with my life and I really panicked and went to see an emotional therapist that I was still dealing with. part of childhood abuse and this therapist suggested I run because that was something I loved in high school.

I ran cross country and running was my symbol of, you know, if I ran hard enough, if I ran fast enough, maybe I could overcome my demons and maybe I could be super healthy and super strong. I was running nine ten miles a day training for the Austin 10K the night before I ran that race. I started having these nightmares that I don't talk about very often because it seems like it's time. it's out of sync anymore but I felt something coming towards me so I was really tired and I skipped coffee and I always need coffee and when I went through the first light it was yellow the second one I looked at was red but I didn't do it.

I understood why a car was coming so fast, it was almost like they anticipated the light change and knew it would change and we both crashed at about 60 miles per hour. I immediately knew if something was wrong with my body because I was slumped over. to the side and I couldn't reach my driver's license and my insurance forms and I basically couldn't move and I knew something was terribly wrong, finally a good Samaritan stopped and she was a nurse, she stayed with me, she took my hand and she She was beautiful, you know, I will never forget her kindness, she helped me until the ambulance came and they put me on a board, the closest thing I could say to a prayer was God, help me, you know, at that moment, you know, remove control. out of your hands at a time like that and we spent a lot of our time trying to control life and at that moment I knew it was all over, it was all up to the surgeons, what happened next, it was out of my control for the most part , all he had.

It was my voice as the only thing that could help me on this path. I never thought about having health insurance. He was a college

student

who just thought he would get a good job after college. I'm young. healthy, that won't be a factor, so they took me to a downtown hospital because I had internal injuries. They did a lot of CT scans. They knew my back was broken in several places. I was shocked. I didn't know. I had never met anyone. to recover from back surgery I didn't know if I would walk I was trying to get specific details from the nurses I was also trying to get pain medication because it was painful they refused so they said until a neurosurgeon approves this and says We're taking you at the risk of We can't give you painkillers, so I was tied to a board for 17 hours before going into surgery, so my family members came and went.

I was really a mess, you know, psychologically yelling at people. different moments crying and finally self pity really took over a nurse said a neurosurgeon was coming to talk to me and she came in and I looked at her and said I'm going to kill myself if I can't walk So I need you to operate on me and she said: "It's "Okay, I'll do it, but I've been on duty for 40 hours, so I have to go home and I have to take a nap and I have to eat something and then I'll be back." here and I'm operating on you and I felt so relieved because someone had passed away, I heard the conversation, there was a neurosurgeon who didn't want to come because he didn't have health insurance and I remember thinking, Oh my God.

They're pulling me, you know, I'm trying so hard and here I'm nothing, I'm just, you know, a body on this stretcher, that was all the physical world, so my brain was totally in that moment of the physical. I was worried about classes, I was worried about walking, I wasn't really worried about

death

, even when they wheeled me in and it said 17 chances of death, I didn't even stop to ask, I thought, well, that's a high probability. , but I'll accept it because I want to walk and then they took me in a wheelchair and Dr. flan was the doctor's name and she squeezed my hand and that's the last thing I remember until I left my body the moment I came out. like in the corner of the room looking at the surgeons and looking at my body and when you're outside a body that you don't see with normal eyes, you see with this 360 degree vision and you can get close and something or you can see behind you but It's not that important you know you're looking at mostly what you're looking at but I remember the top of the surgeon's heads and I remember his hands and I remember there was a song on the radio, actually there was an Elvis song on the radio, it was the easy listening station so I thought I knew this station and there was a lot of awareness of the room itself and the surgeons and then I thought I was Alive, I live beyond this body and I was so excited I wanted to tell my agnostic friends in that moment.

I thought, oh, I could explain this to them, they'll understand. Consciousness definitely continues. It was a much longer period of time that he taught. really communicate with them, but I thought that moment was profound enough just looking at my body, looking at the surgeons, I was happy, I mean, there is no word to describe that happiness, it was relief, absolute peace, we moved on, I want to say, I was convinced in that first moment because my Consciousness felt calm as if I always felt a little nervous in the body and I think most people do, probably to some extent there is something, some pain somewhere or something of anxiety or something is happening in that space, nothing.

There was no pain, it was just peace and my intelligence seemed greater outside the body and I even thought about that because these neurosurgeons had to be brilliant, you know, Dr. Flan had her assistant and he was by her side and I remember looking at them and then These Beings of light were behind them and were about nine feet tall. I call them beings of light. I called them angels in my book, you know, angels in the or because that makes sense to more people, but all I knew was that they were intelligent and could communicate. telepathically and they were there to send healing through the neurosurgeons and into my body and they assured me that I would walk, that I would even run again and that everything would be okay and then they almost jokingly said look at this and when they said look at this, I just shot all this energy and light through the neurosurgeons and illuminated my entire spine.

We're thinking it's fantastic. I mean, neurosurgeons have to know that angels work through them. I'll ask you about this later. This is incredible. I know that they are so intelligent that they have to know that there is even a higher intelligence working with them and you know, that moment stood out in my mind, but then the monitor went flat and at that moment I thought, oh, I'm technically dead and I'm not really I want to look. Do they have to turn me around? What are they going to do? How are they going to revive me? Years later I found out I had internal bleeding and was bleeding to death and they started cauterizing the veins and trying to stop them. bleeding and giving me blood transfusions and that's what brought me back but I left it and when you're in spiritual form you can move through walls so I went through the first wall and then a couple more walls and I was looking.

My stepdad took a chocolate bar out of the machine and this was my verifiable detail to me, it didn't mean anything other than I thought it was crazy for health, so the chocolate bar was fun for me. I thought, oh, he has a secret sugar. addiction I know so I chuckled and moved to this space above Austin that was the night sky and I floated there for a while and the freedom felt great I wasn't afraid I just felt free and happy despite I was told I would return to the body I thought I was pretty far away now maybe I'm not, you know, maybe I'll stay here and if I stayed here would I be okay? and it was totally fine if I stayed there because outside the body I felt like I was supported by a greater Consciousness like the brain.

Dr. Evan Alexander and others say that the brain is a limiter of Consciousness that limits what we

experience

and what we see and out of body we see. More and more, I knew in those first moments that, oh, this

experience

doesn't compare to being in the body. One of my other initial thoughts was, oh, this is theater, so all we're doing is acting and we're learning things and we put on these bo

dies

, these costumes, it didn't feel real, so it felt like reality, like Oz behind the curtain or it was like, oh, now I understand, we just come here and a lot of people talk. about reincarnation, that makes a lot of sense to me now at that moment.

I didn't really think about it. I was just looking at the details of that life and I realized you know this life we ​​live in. I also felt the energy of everyone I had ever met and I wanted to tell everyone, basically, I love you, it will be better, be happy, enjoy your life. I mean, that's the message from the soul, it's not anything negative, it's just hey, love your life and you know, the Hubble telescope images, there's a couple of them. which I swear are very similar to what I saw so the pink expanse of stars was illuminated only I was floating somewhere that I did not recognize but I knew I was in the Stars I also felt this greater Intelligence coming towards me in the form of light and almost like angel eyes telepathy, he came to me and told me different messages like Love is all that matters, it's all you take with you when you leave this place, be like a little child, remind them to go to nature, These all seem like simple crystallized messages, but there were about five or six messages like that and they just implanted themselves deep inside of me and I knew that I would never forget them, that that was meant to be something that I took in at that moment and it showed itself as a part of my life. and I saw something from childhood where I played in nature moments where I had faith and these moments were good like the light seemed to say hey your faith was beautiful your love for animals was beautiful just remember the goods and the good parts of life and the the things that weren't good melted almost like you already know how the Shadow just fades away, it was almost like well that's not what I take with me, almost like that message of love was all we carried with us and we didn't. we cling to it.

The negative in this place of light. I saw Life's review about some places whereIt could be better and I was a bit cliché and critical. I was proud of myself for getting into UT and I kind of looked down on people who didn't. I went to college so in the different jobs I worked I looked at people who work full time as white staff and I wasn't rude to them but I didn't give them space to get to know me and I saw how nice they were. and I saw this couple go home and pray for me and I almost want to cry, I want to think about it because they saw that I was this depressed person and they got worried and I didn't even give them the time of day because I didn't like what they were wearing, I want I mean, it's so ridiculous, so at the time I thought I could do better, I could be a better person and I wasn't leaving room for the beauty of who people are, that was the main focus of how I was going to change. like the Creative Source wants me to look at the beauty in people and their heart, it's almost like our soul knows how to be, but we forget that in our culture and we forget it when trying to feel special or feel good about ourselves like I finished that review of life I ended up in this place it was full of greenery and beautiful grass there was no death some people might call it heaven to me it seems like a Consciousness that I was participating in that my grandfather showed up and wanted to recreate something from my childhood because he knew I liked walking in the back of his truck my grandfather looked different he looked young and handsome and shone almost like angels in this light there was no death in him I had seen him die I was him The last person he saw had leukemia and was about 70 years old and it didn't look like him there.

He was the only person who had a connection with me who had passed away, so we spent time together and then at some point he said, "No." You want to continue and even though I was in the back of this van driving very slowly through this beautiful green grass, I looked up and I knew what he meant, that there was more to this experience and that God was on the other side of this, so that I was thrown out of the truck and I was this Soul flying towards God. I felt great. I felt every bit of insecurity float away.

I felt so loved. I felt that this is the best place I have ever experienced. Why does anyone ever quit? I want to get closer to this Source of God, this vibration, this unconditional love. I just felt safe and held by love and at some point there was a wall of energy that stopped me and I couldn't go any further. and it vibrated through me and said look down and I looked down and there was this river and there were many people walking on it, some were covered in shadows, some had light and I saw that if they had light they were connected to God from that place just seemed like fear or love that there was only one choice between fear or love and I thought oh, that's simple.

I just go back and tell some people not to fear things that you already know and to love more and I was like, “okay.” I can do that, but God told me no, you're going to be a teacher and you're going to do that. I said, well, I can't do that because that's not what I want to do. I want to win money. I grew extremely. poor and so I had planned to go to law school at UT and UT has a great law school and I had friends who were in law school and I thought I'd travel to see Europe, you know, do some fun things and then, Finally, I had already taken the LSAT and I knew I was prepared for law school and I thought, given my writing skills, I thought, "Okay, I can do this." I may be a lawyer and the idea of ​​teaching or caring was a traditional career for women and I considered myself somewhat of a feminist, so I thought: I don't want to do something traditional and poorly paid, no thanks, this is not for me, so God said : No, you're really going to be a teacher and that was it, that was the last thing I heard in the presence of God.

I joke that I wanted to argue more and there were thoughts I was having, but it was like God turned me into this ball of energy. and I was thrown back through the Darkness into my body and ended up in the room where they give you ice chips and ask you to say your name and I was still holding on to that experience, my first thoughts even came out of the anesthesia where I ended up. of having one of those things I call near death experiences because I had read about it and it was okay, I had one of those and then my energy was not fully felt in my body I felt like I was part of the room and the nurse was asking me. . what my name was and I literally didn't feel like I still said well her name is Trisha and she said no, no, your name and I was like oh my name and then I felt a little sad going back to the specificity of it being me because I don't know how to describe it but you are one with everything but you are also an individual in that space and then return to the body the body has a trauma the body has memory the body will die here but in that space you are Eternal and you are free and it is so beautiful and therefore that there was already an aversion to being in the body.

I felt like I had been in this beautiful expansive place full of light and I felt very limited. Upon entering the body I felt as if I was being forced to return to the body and that it was not a choice because if it had been my will I would have stayed there and this was definitely not my choice. They sent me back and told me that I had a particular mission and now I am happy about the mission, but at that time I was not happy. I was in the ICU and hooked up to machines for three days.

As soon as I could move my arms and talk, my grandmother brought me a journal and I wrote down everything I remembered about the Angels because I was afraid that they were giving me morphine in the emergency room and I was afraid that this medicine would make the Indie disappeared and I thought I had to remember this, so I wrote down descriptions of the Angels. about how they weren't like paintings. I had seen that they were beings of light and they were much larger and much more intense and I tried to hold on to everything I could.

I asked the nurses to hold their arms. You believe in God and they say yes, yes, I believe in God. I go to church. I think God is a big ball of light and they say, "Okay, you know, we've heard enough from you today." Yes, then I know. people were having these reactions saying it's okay and you can stop talking now and I even asked my surgeon and told her how long I died and she said you died for about two and a half minutes and this is very early but you have several blood transfusions, you're going to be fine and I wanted to ask you more about what I saw and I was able to see and read the energy and that was not something I had seen before.

I couldn't necessarily. I read people's body language and pictures, but I saw her take a step back and I saw she had this thought. Don't keep talking about this. I didn't want to have to deal with this, so I knew she thought she was crazy if she kept talking about it. Then I thought, "I can't ask him" and that disappointed me because I really wanted to ask him if he knew that she was assisted by angels. Yes, but I was different from the beginning. I started to see people differently and started. Seeing manipulation and insecurity and all kinds of things in my family around me and I wanted to help them honestly, like there were times when I approached my mom and tried to tell her my experience and the only person in my family who was receptive was my grandma and said to my mom at one point let her talk okay this is interesting this is her experience she was tolerant and my mom rolled her eyes and told her how could she know anything about God and I remember oh this is going to be more hard to get to her which I realized and I kept trying, you know, and there was a moment where we were finally alone and I thought, mom, I died and her first question was: did you see Jesus? and I told him.

Well, no, and I could see his tents going up from him, that was not a good answer and I said, but what I experienced was incredible, it has changed me. Now I believe in God, so this is positive. Can we start there? You know, like me. that we continued and I wanted to communicate to her that she was as loved as I told her, look, you're wrong and I'm wrong but we're both loved, it's not that great and I could see it in her face that she was, I'm not wrong, you're wrong, like that I thought, oh, this must not be a fight, this must be good news, we are so much more in love than we can imagine, so slowly.

I started to shut down and realize that I couldn't just tell everyone that this experience in the ears has to be brought back to life and I was lucky and had a long recovery of nine months, so I was in a cast and I stayed at my house. mom and my stepdad and they would get me books from the library, so I was reading Carlos Castañada, Marion Williamson, Deepak Chopra, you know, just delving into the spiritual material and I was very in touch with the physical process of healing. It was amazing how nine days in a hospital bed, I mean, I was in the best shape of my life, you know, running nine miles a day to run this race, I couldn't even stand on my toes after that, you know, the body was so weak that every part of me felt like it was on fire, you know, my whole spine felt like there was a poker inside and yet it got easier, you know, week after week there was improvement, finally I could walk and it was the heat of summer. so I had to do this very early in the morning or very late at night and early in the morning there were many older people who saw this strange girl with her body in a cast and they started asking me about my experience and I got to know the neighbors and They were open so I found that people who were dying or who were scared of cancer loved my story and were my biggest fans on the street and when I finally walked to the end of the street they drank their coffee and cheered.

To me they're like you did it and it was like I had this cheerleading squad of older people and my parents' neighborhood, so life was magical even though it was painful and there were a lot of discoveries. I learned to have lucid dreams and participated with Consciousness. outside of my body I was really in a beautiful state of faster integration because I had those nine months to read and meditate and think that I was kind of closed off before my near-death experience. The only way I opened up is if I had a few drinks or, you know, I was hanging out with friends listening to music.

I did not do it. I didn't really offer much of myself. He wasn't this person without limits and full of love. It was in some ways. I stayed a lot safer because I didn't trust people I had a lot of barriers you know I guess because of my childhood I kept strong boundaries with people but after my near death experience I loved everyone the way I walked down the street I was worried about everyone, I just saw the light and every single human being I was overflowing with love I had this telepathy where I understood what people thought and felt I loved animals I mean, I was so happy that first year that I can't even describe it as happiness and freedom of power. walking to be able to explore this world and know that there is energy that comes from the trees that there is everything is aware that everything is beautiful that was simply not in my consciousness the only thing that was in my consciousness before was me you know simply My thoughts, my head and a lot of those thoughts weren't very good, and that was another thing: I realized all those negative thoughts that had brought me down and I didn't necessarily have to thank them and that became a lifelong experience. process of working with my own thoughts and realizing what thoughts are mine, what thoughts are not, and how to live a happier life.

I also went back to school and got my teaching certification, so I went ahead and graduated and taught right away and the moment I was in the classroom was magical, I was like, what do I do? Do you know what I'm going to tell these

student

s? So I told them the truth. I thought, "I don't want to be a teacher, I know you don't." I don't want to be here. Me neither. I thought, but they told me to come here and here's my story and they were, you know, Mouse with their eyes wide open and they said, I have a question, you know, and there were a lot of them. of communication and a lot of connection from the beginning.

I find that people love these stories. It makes them think about what comes next or the magical elements of life or puts them in touch with their own soul's journey. I saw how different students wanted to become psychologists. or they wanted to, they told me their goals because they trusted me on some level and I was the one who, you know, they were my first students and that was the first class and there was so much magic, so much hilarity, so much silliness, it was really fun. but it also changes your life, you know it's very easy on the other side there is only love and there is only fear, but here sometimes people attack you out of fear, sometimes people are manipulative out of fear that they don't have enough or need something for you and it's devastating, you know for people, but I really see that fear as just a blockage from the light of God, so it can be depression, it can be anything that blocks you from God and I think the Nature is a way for many people to heal.

I think that's one way a lot of people could get through a lot of things: isolation time and nature, thinking about your life, reconsidering what you want to do, howyou want to do it differently and reconnect with some kind of light whenever your soul awakens. this journey and it continues I'm doing something good, you know, I have a dream, I have a gift or I have something to share or something to help people with every time you wake up and you are connected to something bigger than yourself, then you are win and I think we can all win, you know, at different times in our lives and maybe there are struggles, but we can still get to a point where we are giving back to society or we are really enjoying life where we have many joy in our lives and we know that the best we can we are giving love to the world.

I mean, I know we all get frustrated with traffic and technology and all kinds of things. I'm not immune to that, you know, certainly. I have moments in life when I am terribly frustrated but I am fine again. How do I enjoy this more? How do I remember that my energy affects other people and how it doesn't affect them in a negative way? I hope that at the quantum level and at this level of Oneness, more and more people are awakening to our connection because if we realize that we are all connected and that we are all one, we would not want anyone to suffer and we would really make suffering in society. the main focus.

How do we alleviate suffering? How do we alleviate suffering in the lives of children, in the elderly, and in the uninsured, and in the people you know who can't find a job? People who are disabled. How do we across the board help people live better lives? I think a lot of near-death experiences point towards, "Hey, there's a bigger love on the other side that can help us live a better life, let's do it abroad."
