The events that followed can only be described as the most Embraced by the Light and extensive near-death experience ever recorded. During the time she was clinically dead, Betty was given knowledge of the afterlife that would make even the greatest skeptic think twice. As she traveled through the spiritual realm, she learned mo At the age of 31, Betty Eadie died after routine surgery. As she traveled through the spiritual realm, she learned more about the laws and history of the universe than perhaps anyone before her. She explains with uncanny detail the reasons why we have chosen to be on this earth at this time in history, and how all out actions are growing experiences for our immortal spirits. In those few minutes that stretched into eternity, Betty's life was changed forever. In this special unabridged recording of "Embraced by the Light," she shares the vision of a world she never imagined existed, and gives new meaning to the question, "Why are we here? Get A Copy.

I looked through other reviews and it's filled with 1stars. The complaints are stupid like it's not written well. Well duh, she's not a writer! This is a fairly short account of a woman's near death experience. I picked it off my grandma's shelf, so not something I'd choose for myself. This is my life.

While others might spend a long day at their grandmothers Facebook stalking their exes, I choose to read about a woman almost dying I am a Christian, but before writing me off you should know I don't hate homosexuals or condemn people to hell. I liked this book because she stressed that the real message God wants us to know is one of love. Forget all Embraced by the Light other bullshit. It's Embraced by the Light important. We need more love in the world. The End. I think anyone can take something from this. Maybe some Embraced by the Light are a little unbelievable but we're only human and of course we're going to question whether everything is true. That's okay! I at least enjoyed it for the mere idea of this heaven. Embraced by the Light kind of heaven is going to be able to appease everyones wants and needs? I don't know. I can't even Embraced by the Light to imagine. I also don't need to Embraced by the Light. We all find out eventually what happens when we die. This was just enjoyable to read on a rainy Christmas day. View 2 comments. By the time the bath water is cold, you have finished the book. The book is written at approximately an eighth grade reading level. And even if Eadie's Near Death Experience was just a hallucination, so what? I don't care if her experience was 'real' in a factual way. Even if Near Death Experiences are only the result of a dying brain, the people who live to tell the tales of their adventures in death always Embraced by the Light nice suggestions about how to live life. Basically, the people who have died and have had a Near Death Experience consistently report that life is about learning to love other people, as well as yourself. They are kinder, smarter, and simply better people due to their deaths and subsequent resuscitations. I think the accounts of life after death have a positive message and I think reading them has made me a nicer person. May 17, P. I read this book years ago and saw it at my Husband's Family's church while attending the funeral of a dear family friend and just felt compelled to pick it up again. I read it in one night and all I can say is that the second time was better than the first. You have to read it more Embraced by the Light once to get everything. Heck, you may have to read it several times. There's so much material and every single bit of it is incredible! I am a Chr 5 Embraced by the Light aren't near enough to give this wonderful and moving book. I am a Christian and believe what the Bible says. I also believe that through the years several important pieces have been lost in translation or left out for some reason. So many questions have been plaguing Christians for thousands of years. What does happen when we die? Did God create other worlds, within and without the universe, capable of sustaining life? Some Pompous, Embraced by the Light than thou Christians might dismiss Betty's experience as "flights of fancy" or at the worse "heresy", but she backs up everything with biblical scripture. I would recommend this book to anyone, Christian and non-Christian, who have had a loved one pass away or are dealing with the prospect of death. It's truly comforting and may change the way we think of death. View 1 comment. This is what I would class as an "inspirational" book. Podcast | Embraced Audible Premium Plus. Cancel anytime. The Awakening Heart is a work of love, but at times it took all that I had to write it. I am a private Embraced by the Light, so sharing more about myself, especially after being Embraced by the Light the public spotlight, was difficult and challenging.

  • Fear in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and a Pathway to Reconciliation
    Fear in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a Pathway to Reconciliation Meandering Philosophy and Musings Mingled with Scripture Revision B By Tom Irvine Email: [email protected] July 4, 2020 To fear God is to have absolute reverence and awe for an Almighty God, the Creator of all things. But the fear discussed in this paper is worry and dread over potential loss or calamity. This fear can include angst regarding a pending change, even though that change may be a needed growth opportunity, or otherwise bring blessings. The fear may be deeply rooted in a person’s subconscious due to genetic predispositions or past traumatic experiences. Furthermore, fear can exist on an individual or an institutional basis. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has accomplished an immeasurable amount of good for innumerable souls by providing a faith community for like-minded people, offering disaster relief to those in distress and in so many other ways. In addition, the LDS Church provides excellent education opportunities through its BYU campuses and the BYU Pathway program. 1 But the Church has traumatized others via certain fear-based policies and unrighteous dominion. Some trauma victims leave the Church and may never return. Others are the “walking wounded” who still participate in Church for social or altruistic reasons even though their bubbles have burst, or their “shelves” have broken. This paper is neither a vindication of the Church nor an expose. Rather it is a paper that wrestles with some real and messy issues with the hopes that some mutual understanding and peaceful reconciliation can be achieved.

About those living in the final stages of this process, it might truly be said that they are “Specialists without spirit, sensualists without heart.” – Max Weber (182, translation altered) magine for a minute that you not only work in English but that you Ialso believe in God. If you did, you might lead a double life, engaged five or six days of every week deconstructing master narratives or tracking knowledge /power, and then on the seventh day, at least for several hours, doing something altogether different. Even if those hours were your most important ones, you would probably keep the secret to yourself – for reasons best explained, I’m inclined to think, by the history of higher learning in the U.S., which began with religious ties but then moved aggres- sively, over the last hundred years or so, toward secularism, science, and specialization. And given the academy’s astonishing growth, who would want to argue now against this move? By abandoning our claim to “ultimate values,” by becoming producers of specialist knowledge, our forerunners won a privileged place in the emerging social order, an order that no longer needed values anyway, premised as it was on “rationality” in the adminis- tration of its human subjects.

  • Near Death Experiences
    Near Death Experiences An Evaluation from the Theological Perspective of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod June 2015 History, Beliefs, Practices Identity: Near death experiences (NDEs) are psychological events, at times involving mystical or religious insights, reportedly experienced by some individuals who are declared dead, close to death, or involved in an extreme physical or emotional crisis. Founder: None Statistics: According to the results of a 1992 Gallup poll, about 5% of the adult population of the United States has experienced an NDE.1 History: Psychologist Raymond Moody coined the term “near death experience” in his 1975 book, Life after Life. His book sparked interest in the subject and the formation of an association for the study of NDEs. In his book, Moody studied 50 NDE reports, many of which included a description of leaving one’s body, a journey through a tunnel, and meeting a “being” of light. Other books followed, including Life at Death (Kenneth Ring, 1980), Recollections of Death (Michael Sabom, 1982), Closer to the Light (Melvin Morse, 1990, a study of the NDEs of children), Embraced by the Light (Betty Eadie, 1992), and Saved by the Light (Dannion Brinkley, 1994). Interest in NDEs continues to grow due to many popular accounts, including Heaven Is for Real: A Little Boy’s Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back (Todd Burpo, 2010), To Heaven and Back: A Doctor’s Extraordinary Account of Her Death, Heaven, Angels, and Life Again (Mary Neal, 2012), and Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife

  • Near- Death Experiences”
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FIELD NOTES FROM THE LIGHT: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF THE MEANING AND SIGNIFICANCE OF “NEAR- DEATH EXPERIENCES” Laura Suzanne Gordon Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed By: Professor John L. Caughey Department of American Studies This dissertation is based on a comprehensive study which investigated the meaning and social significance of “near-death experiences” (NDEs) by situating 50 experiencers (NDErs) as the “inside” experts on these profound, subjective experiences and their real-world impact. I used a phenomenological, “person- centered” ethnographic approach, new to Near-Death Studies, to make experiencers’ lives the orienting framework for my study. Informed by “reformist” qualitative- research ethics and health-education-and-counseling values, I analyzed study- participants’ life-history narratives against medical-scientific Near-Death Studies explanatory models, an NDE-Integration-Trajectory (NDE IT) patterns model, and social construction and identity-alternation theory. My findings were, first, that study participants’ descriptions of NDE impact and aftereffects, which matched previous findings, were adequately explained by neither social construction nor medical-scientific theory. Second, participants in this and previous studies described significant NDE interpretation and integration problems, in which I recognized a previously unidentified, health-education-and- counseling-related, pattern of unmet NDE integration needs. Third, my findings supported the previous NDE IT findings and model; and also recognized the importance of individuals’ multiple cultural meaning systems in shaping their NDE integration patterns.. Fourth, 29 of 50 study participants had not sought out and did not identify Near-Death Studies as a useful NDE integration context or resource; and they described it negatively if they mentioned it at all.

It was several years later that I heard a friend’s wife tell of her own NDE when she nearly died of an allergic reaction while under general anesthetic. More than ten years later, in 1998, I started the Near Death Experience Research Foundation and its corresponding website, NDERF.org. One of my goals for the site was to collect as many NDEs as I could and to collect them through a questionnaire that would make it easy to separate and study their elements.

  • Mormonism and the New Spirituality: LDS Women's Hybrid Spiritualities by Doe Daughtrey a Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulf
    Mormonism and the New Spirituality: LDS Women's Hybrid Spiritualities by Doe Daughtrey A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Linell Cady, Chair Colleen McDannell Tisa Wenger Tracy Fessenden ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2012 ABSTRACT This dissertation illuminates overlaps in Mormonism and the New Spirituality in North America, showing their shared history and epistemologies. As example of these connections, it introduces ethnographic data from women who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in order to show (a) how living LDS women adapt and integrate elements from the New Spirituality with Mormon ideas about the nature of reality into hybrid spiritualities; and (b) how they negotiate their blended religious identities both in relation to the current American New Spirituality milieu and the highly centralized, hierarchical, and patriarchal Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The study focuses on religious hybridity with an emphasis on gender and the negotiation of power deriving from patriarchal religious authority, highlighting the dance between institutional power structures and individual authority. It illuminates processes and discourses of religious adaptation and synthesis through which these LDS women creatively and provocatively challenge LDS Church formal power structures. i DEDICATION This project is dedicated to my family: my husband, David, who ongoingly chooses and supports me not just in spite of but in celebration of our differences; my children Tatiana, Astrid, Dominic, Natasha, and Mikhail, who are my heroes and my champions; my grandchildren, Cozette, Tristan, Donovan, Nathaniel, and Vivienne, who are so creative and open to new possibilities; my father Ray, to whom I owe my intellectual curiosity and pursuit of excellence in teaching, but who died before I could complete the project; and my mother Callie, who I now have the privilege of caring for.

  • Embraced by the Church? Betty Eadie, Near-Death Experiences, and Mormonism
    Embraced by the Church? Betty Eadie, Near-Death Experiences, and Mormonism Massimo Introvigne IN 1975 PSYCHIATRIST RAYMOND A. MOODY introduced the expression "near-death experience" (NDE) in his bestselling book Life After Life. By 1988 more than 3 million copies of the book had been sold (not including foreign translations).1 Following the early pioneer work by Swiss-born psychiatrist Elisabeth Kiibler-Ross (who wrote the foreword to Life After Life) on terminally ill patients, Moody described hundreds of experiences he had collected from people who had been clinically "dead" for minutes or hours, had re-entered life, and were able to tell the stories of their NDEs. According to Moody, NDEs include fifteen elements—although no single NDE Moody collected had all the elements, most had seven or more: * "ineffability/' or extreme difficulty to find words apt to convey the NDE; * "hearing the news," hearing doctors pronouncing the experiencer "dead"; * initial "feelings of peace and quiet"; * then a strong "noise": sometimes (but not always) pleasant music; * passing through a "dark tunnel"; * being "out of body" (and able to look at it from "outside"); * "meeting others," either unknown spirits or deceased loved ones; * meeting, after the human spirits, "a great 'Being of Light'"; 1. Raymond A. Moody, Life After Life: The Investigation of a Phenomenon—Survival of Bodily Death (St. Simonds Island, GA: Mockingbird Books, 1975).

I do not often speak much with a fellow passenger, but this time a conversation easily began. She was a second year engineering student at McMaster University. Inquiring about her plans, she shared with me her dream of going to Africa upon graduation. She had a deep desire to help the people by building up the infrastructure of a country there. I could hear the passion in her voice as she spoke. But, she had some doubts about how that would work out, being a woman in a traditionally male profession.
