Internal Landscapes

[Spoken]

And I felt myself going. I was in a great deal of pain. It was a very frightening experience I began to slip. I just started to feel myself going, and I remember trying to hold on “I'll be ok, I'll be ok” and it got to a point where I just couldn't.

And everything began to just become very quiet and I can remember with every ounce of strength I had, I wanted to say goodbye to my wife. It was important to me.

And I did, I remember just turning my head and looking at her and saying: “I'm gonna die” “Goodbye Joan”, and I did…

It was then that I experienced... experienced what we call a near death experience, for me there was nothing near about it, it was there.

It was a total immersion in light, brightness, warmth, peace, security.

I did not have an out-of-body-experience, I did not see my body or anyone about me… I just immediately went into this beautiful bright light.

It's difficult to describe, as a matter of fact it's impossible to describe, verbally it cannot be expressed, it’s something which becomes you and you become it.

I could say that I was peace, I was love, I was the brightness, it was part of me.

Goodbye my friend

Love will never end

And i feel like you

And i breath all truth

Love is the lifebreath of all i see

Love is the truelight inside of me

And i know you somehow

As i hold you in my heart, in my heart

(Sense following me)

There`s a fire in the sky, and i know it`s you

There`s a light that's so bright, and i know it`s you, i know it`s you

And i dream like you

And I believe in Truth

For i was always there

I will always be there

[Spoken:]

It's just so beautiful.

It was eternity, it's like I was always there, and I will always be there, that my existence on earth was just a very brief, instant...

I could say that I was peace, I was love, I was the brightness, it was part of me.
