Re: Have you had a Near Death Experience?
I'm an ex Marine who was standing in the trench in Korea not far from Panmunjom
60 years ago yesterday at 9 pm when the mortars fired their white phosphorus
shells signaling the end of the war. The truce that has held to this very
day. Prior to that signal we had been pummeled with mortars and artillery
fire for most of the afternoon and evening as we had on the many prior nights of
battle. With that signal I personally experienced a new inner calm and
peace that I'd never felt before.
I didn't know it but that spark of light that night ebbed and flowed and
eventually grew and after seeking other paths it took me to meditation which I
have practiced daily for more than thirty years. Meditation too has
changed me. Not quickly, but day by day when you practice turning within
and finding the God of your Heart you find that inner calm and love that you
simply don't find any other way. It's been a journey. One that I
continue each day.
Meditation with spiritual grounding has taken me from the hell that was the
Korean war to a peace that I know that is possible for anyone. I can't
bring peace to the external world but as I - and many others bring peace into
myself and heal my own personal world, the more I find peace in other places
too.
The world is changing and the more we each change ourselves, the more the
world around us changes as well.
Thank your for your post Rudi.
