Well, I'm still thinking about this one. I like to read these books after the dates of the expected revelations to see if these "light beings" are just yanking our chains. They always claim when the event does not happen as predicted that the future is changable, so therefore, you can never know if your chain was just yanked to get you to behave in a certain manner in order to prevent some great "predicted" disaster. Vision 13 is the perfect example of this. You would think that these enlightened beings could commumicate in clear, precise terms instead of "symbols" subject to the interpretation of any nut (I am not calling the writer a nut, I am just questioning the believability of these "higher" beings). The "puppets" and the "puppet show more masters". Be careful when you step into the spot "light" - you become a sitting duck. show less
This is one of the best. It tells the story of a man struck by lightning, and what he experienced while clinically dead. He tells you how he coped with the aftermath of this experience in a very down to earth way. This is a warts and all account of his life and death. This is one of those books that will capture you from the first page. I read this book about 13 years ago and several times since.
Imagine being struck by lightning, having a near death experience, and then coming back to live in a broken body. That's exactly what happened to this fella, and he's been made all the more stronger because of it. He reveals several prophecies that he was given while in heaven, some of which came true, and others that I could see possibly coming true at a later date. Overall, it was a fascinating read and one I highly recommend for others.
Dannion Brinkley is a multiple NDEr (Near Death Experiencer). This is his first book which details his getting struck by lightning when he was on the telephone. The consequence of his visit to "the other side" was the download of information about the future, the ability to read minds, and the ability to touch a person and "see their story". He has used his gifts to serve the dying in hospice situations and to invent some helpful electronic devices.
The author recounts the true stories of his two near-death experiences and explains how they triggered a spiritual transformation and gave him psychic powers. 75,000 first printing. $60,000 ad/promo. Tour.
One of my top 5 favorite books! Very interesting. A must read!!!
