NDEs & Guides/Angels

Wayne Bush

NOTE: All of these quotes are taken from NDEs at the NDERF.ORG web site. In addition to the many cases of meeting Jesus there are almost 100 cases where an archangel, a biblical figure such as the Virgin Mary, or a guardian angel or spirit guide was encountered. That doesn't include all the cases where an unidentified angel was seen. Here is the breakdown: Michael (7 cases), Gabriel (3 cases), Raphael (3 cases), Metatron (2 cases), Angel of Death (2 cases), unnamed archangel(3 cases), Virgin Mary(21 cases), ascended master (2 cases), spirit guide (12 cases), guardian angel (about 50 cases). **

As I looked at the two gigantic, magnificent beings dressed in Brilliant capes just off to It's side, IT said," that is Michael and Gabriel. Michael has chosen you as his and Gabriel shall teach you the ways." I looked past them to another Large Being, so beautiful but darker in contrast, as was the sprawling robe it wore. This being had eyes that pleased but pierced with it's gaze, and the Light Being said "that is He who has been cast out. You who I have given choice may go with any of these of your choosing... He seemed to have approved of my choice, Then said to me "You will be my soldier and you will go with Michael for a while. Gabriel will come to you at times. I will send others to you and your fruit shall not fall far from the tree in the time of the Gathering." -- Lou F

I've always wondered who those two beings were and the only explanation I can come up with is that the larger being was the Angel of Death, and the smaller one was my Guardian angel. -- Jon B

I saw a light at the end of the tunnel, it was a woman, pure white light, she reminded me of mother Mary, she had a veil that went from her head to her feet, her face had a dark brown oval shaped mask that covered her face and also her arms from her elbow to her fingers she wore a long glove, in her heart, energy like rainbows, she almost looked like a mist, fog, with a bright light in it -- Frank A

empath..healing..awareness...that the Jesus and Mother Mary..and the ascended masters are real but nothing like religion portraits them and I continue to walk and talk with them daily -- Vernon C

Lightening like energy streamed through Her, as Her Light showered unto the Instructors (Rafael) chest. Immediately a flash of Light intensified His own Light, which filled Rafael's' whole Being. He returned His Light unto Her presence, as they greeted one another in their Image and likeness… Mary looked at me, and with a smile motioned for me to come to Her. Love flowed from every atom of Her essence, as peace continued to fill the room. -- Annie P

The cloudy area materialized into a large marble room with marble doors and a "being" at the center. I'll refer to this person as "the Grim Reaper," who was cloaked in a dark cloth, covering all parts. The Grim Reaper pointed (indicating to me to choose a door). But before I could choose, a door opened and I had already gone through it. I found myself in what I now think of as a previous life. -- Joanie S

I was aware of a being coming in the direction of my room and I realized that there is mostly certainly an Angel of Death and I thought he coming for me, I was ready and accepted my end. It was not my time. The lady in the room next to me died. The understanding that came with this experience made me realize that death is a friend and constant companion not to be feared. The plain message is "don't worry about a long life but a full one." I have since learned that this Angel is named Azrael. -- Terry M

then I turned to my right (facing forward) and I saw the grim reaper, the dark robe , the sickle, no face but where the face should be was just blackness, blacker than anything I'd ever seen before in my life, it was as if you could take the brightest light you could find (the sun, or even 1000 suns and shined it in there and it would just swallow it up) then I heard a voice in my head say either (come with me, or come to me) and as I stared into the blackness I started to go; as I was going the scene behind me (the truck and paramedics) was fading away at the same time all my senses were fading, the pain was fading. I then realized it was death wanting to take me and I thought of my 14 year old son and my wife. then I told the reaper "F**K YOU I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE", then I was back sitting in the truck and one of the paramedics was saying," come on stay with me" after that they extracted me and took me to the hospital. -- Steve F
I journeyed everywhere. I was taken by one ascended master after another, with each master I was taken into a different dimension. In each dimension. I witnessed ritual death rites of whatever culture I was visiting. I went through Native American, Egyptian, and even some unknown cultures. I not only witnessed but gathered knowledge of each dimension and culture. Each time one experience completed, another Master would come in and take over. I was traveling through planetary systems and solar systems, and things called universal grid systems...Behind me was a very tall Angel who told me his name was Metatron. He was cloaked in a deep ruby violet. He had limbs that were more like light and color than arms and legs. Metatron was my spiritual teacher. He explained in quite a bit of detail how mistakes can happen in a death. He said the journey of death is more complicated and lengthy than humans realize. It is rare, but things sometimes can go wrong. While this was happening, the Masters and Angels stayed outside of it and guided me. The Masters who had me as their task had to get divine permission from the council of 7 to intervene and alter my experience, when they considered that perhaps there was more they could do with me than just keep me on the other side and not allow me to return. While I was seated at the desk with Metatron behind it, he told me that when I came to them, I was not expected to return. It was my time to stay. -- Marie W

I saw Jesus and an Angel or Ascended Master -- Charles G

While in this place I began walking toward this tree and my guardian Angel came to me she spoke not with her mouth but clearly in my head and she said you need to stop and wait and I kept looking past her and moved around her to get to this tree, her voice came more forceful and she said remember and held up her hand and on each one of her fingers there was a moving photo of my 4 children and she said remember them you have to wait. -- Hollie M

my own guide (guardian angel). According to me, this man and woman. -- Cinthia

I found myself having a pulled-back-into-my-body type sensation. He said, 'I am your angel. My name is Babba Ji. -- Debbi ER

I can see my body from above, I move right beside my body – which at this moment, was connected to lots of tubes/pipes. All of a sudden an angel appears, wearing combat vestments as a soldier, but white, - he was about 5 meters tall- I ask him: “Who are you”? And he replies: “Do you care? I am Michael and I have to bring you to another place”. I feel like being suctioned/blown downwards….I reach a lake of blood and rotten burnt flesh. The smell of putrid flesh was unbearable. Holes would open in the earth, at every step , and horrible worms would come up. I raised my eyes and saw a man bending down and a demon raping him… and the demon was donkey-headed. To the right I saw the anus of a giant, defecating demons…. To the left I saw people dancing…they wanted to stop, but the demons did not let them stop. They noticed me and they wanted to attack me, but Michael made the symbol of the cross and the demons backed off, blaspheming against God, the angel and myself. Michael embraced me / hugged onto me and took me out from there. Right beside my body he said: “You choose, this is your last chance. I have seen the Paradise and the Hell. It is up to you from now on”. I returned to my body and I recovered. -- Dario F

I communicated with the being in what can best be described as telepathically, but with greater speed. The being identified himself as The Archangel Michael and he was seriously awesome! He is not at all human, being a completely different being than us or anything on Earth. My limited human vocabulary cannot adequately describe him. Michael told me "I can use you, you can work with me". I did not really understand this. Michael said he is a servant of god and has a number of duties. There is zero ego to Michael and his caring is deep. Apparently I could help him with one or more of his duties. I wondered about God and he told me that God is all around us, in us, and everything. God Is. (This communication is all telepathic at this point but his use of "God Is" was clearly demonstrative in nature) He will take me to be presented to him. -- Jeremiah J

I saw on the way to hospital legions of angels of the band of archangel Michael, a powerful blue protector of all. And later, weeks, was in a huge beautiful temple within the Grand Teton mountains at a conclave of waltzing, celestial music, and joy. the walls and floors where alabastar and white marble. Masters were present in beautiful robes of purple, white and gold. -- JoD

It is my intention to help "Awaken the of Spirit" in all that read this, short story. Not only do I still call JESUS, my BIG BROTHER, but I have also learned to call him, Michael of Nebadon, the Prince of Peace, GOD's Archangel Son of Love. So seek HIM, & you will find HIM through Grace & Gratitude. Remember your Boss is the BIG GUY, too! -- Shalom G

The gate itself was unremarkable, no pearls or anything like that. Two robed men were speaking to each other. They never addressed or looked directly at me, but they were discussing me. I knew the two men were St. Peter and St. Gabriel. I could not hear their entire conversation but I knew they were discussing whether it was my time to be admitted to heaven. St. Gabriel was telling St. Peter that I had not read The Gospel of Mark yet. St. Gabriel was holding a huge open book I assumed to be a Bible and they looked at it. It seemed as if Gabriel was convincing Peter I could not enter heaven yet but at the same time I knew St. Peter didn't want to let me in at that time. I was just an observer. They never looked at me and I did not interact with them. I woke up back in my body in the emergency room after I heard that I needed to read Mark. ....That one sentence St. Gabriel spoke, "But she hasn't read The Gospel of Mark" seemed not only to be very very clear words but a strong feeling accompanied his words. It is hard to explain. -- Trish R

The floor was brilliant like crystal, and then I saw a person dressed in something like a white nightgown, who came near me but without my being able to see his face and hands, which were shining light. When he was near me I told him I was working with explosives and they had blown-up on me, but without harming me. He told me to calm myself. I asked him who he was and he replied that he was the Angel Gabriel, that I was in heaven and that Christ had saved me, that I was chosen to belong to the army of God, which is preparing for the last battle. I answered, "I'm ready to back you in anything at all. We have airplanes and armaments". The angel replied to me that they did not use airplanes, that they flew through the air and were armed with Love, provided for them by Christians in prayer to God. He sent Angels who fired sorts of arrows of love, destroying evil, smashing it in mid-air...When the Angel Gabriel told me I had to go back and I did not want to, until I heard the voice and asked if it was Jesus, and he said I had to go back, and I gave in. -- Miguel RP

But they were the most beautiful beings I ever saw and I realized they weren't human but Angels. And not only angels but they were Arch Angels and I knew each of their names as if I had known them my whole life; Michael, Raphael, Gabriel and Zadkiel. I was in complete awe as I looked up at them towering over me still lying on my back. I wasn't scared but felt comforted and happy. I no longer felt confused or disoriented and was able to sit up. -- Eric A

Supernatural experience....communication with spiritual entity identified as Raphael angel of science, healing and knowledge...The planet is in trouble there is still hope....it can still be saved....However, time is critical....ACT Now..... -- Donna D

I did not grieve on the other side, and because I only felt the love of those in the room, it was really easy to leave when Gabriel and Raphael came to get me. It’s funny, when I sit and analyze it now, there was absolutely no fear at that point for me and no real attachment to my body either. I realized it was a shell, and that I was still alive, and that it was time for me to go. We went through a light tunnel together - Gabriel on one side and Raphael on the other. -- Pamela B

I've always wondered who those two beings were and the only explanation I can come up with is that the larger being was the Angel of Death, and the smaller one was my Guardian angel. -- Jon B

When it touched my legs, I became aware in some non-audible way that it was the Angel of Death, and it intended to take my life.
the first encounter was with what I was sure was the Virgin Mary of my Catholic upbringing. The most frightful part of the NDE are the moments I took initiative and asked questions. It took a lot of moving beyond the fear to be so bold but I asked, "Are you really the Mother Mary?" Instantly I saw what I already sensed was happening here. Every molecule in my being suddenly seemed to leap with joy on the new knowledge and understanding, no, it was not the Virgin Mary. You are approaching home. The need to have it be the Mother Mary fades. -- Robert B

empath..healing..awareness...that the Jesus and Mother Mary..and the ascended masters are real but nothing like religion portraits them and I continue to walk and talk with them daily -- Vernon C

I head a women's voice say, 'You will not die'. I thought it was either my deceased mother or mother-in-law. As I went back into my body, I knew the voice I heard was the Virgin Mary, I call her Mother Mary. -- Sherry B

angels, beautiful lady (Mother Mary I should say) Baby Jesus. Mary said that I had to go back. I'm not finished here. The baby smiled at me as the angel picked him up. -- Lutz JH

I saw a light at the end of the tunnel, it was a woman, pure white light, she reminded me of mother Mary, she had a veil that went from her head to her feet, her face had a dark brown oval shaped mask that covered her face and also her arms from her elbow to her fingers she wore a long glove, in her heart, energy like rainbows, she almost looked like a mist, fog, with a bright light in it -- Frank A

Then, I asked to see the Virgin Mary and someone asked me to enter another (room) without any wall. After a while, she arrived, being accompanied by his Son, he was a child approximately 6 years old. Then she told me about the confusion of God, my eternal father. I asked if I could be of any help and she told me that it was exactly what they were expecting from me. It was the same thing for all those who had the same experience but without being obliged, always with free will. Thus I asked to meet God to decide with him what I could do to serve his cause and she told me that God was not someone we could meet, we wouldn’t bear the vision. But he is an energy that we can feel and see as a light of variable intensity depending of one’s heart’s purity. He came following Mary’s request. I considered this presence as an honour and told him my feeling. I also felt this sadness which Mary spoke about to me and he told me “I chose you with a few others also chosen to try to awake the consciousnesses, that’s a last chance I give them. They all think they are God so I consider they don’t need me any more. -- Kolleen

I saw Jesus dressed as the shepherd and the Virgin Mary.. Jesus was gazing through the grass.. The VirginMary was standing on something that looked like rocks made of a mixture of gold, diamonds, pearls and silver.. I also saw 2 children a little blond-goldish haired girl and a little boy with black hair they were kneeling near the pile of beautiful rocks where the Virgin Mary was standing... I was standing in the middle of this amazing field looking at all of them felt like at the same time... Jesus and the Virgin Mary they had a beautiful unearthly glow... -- Sara G

I felt that there is a woman near my head in white dress caring of me. When I woke up, I thought she was the nurse. I wanted to thank her, but the people around me told me there was no body around me. When I asked the saint, he told me that the woman was the virgin Mary. -- Dromo S

declared dead for four hours. OBE -- saw two beings he recognized through tunnel. Met Jesus, Virgin Mary, John the Baptist, then went to God. Life review, God told him he had been judged justly. At enormous knowledge." 98% sure" when world will end and how. Not allowed to share details. -- Phillip S

When one of the Archangels waved their arm and opened the matrix of creation before me and I was standing there beside them as they explained it to me and I was looking right into the matrix it did alter my vision.... I encountered a definite being, or a voice clearly of mystical or unearthly origin I encountered numerous beings, Jesus, Mary, Archangels, Metatron, -- Marie W
