A Great Book on the NDE

I have been on a roll this last year, reading as many books on NDE's as I can get my hands on, and I found this to be another great book on this subject. Although many of these books describe a very personal journey, I think we can all learn from their experiences. And, like all books out there re: the afterlife, you just have to remember that it's like "the blind describing an elephant" - their experiences will depend, to some extent on "where they are", and their own thought processes (since I've learned over & over again that our thoughts have a major impact on what we experience both here & on the "Other Side"). In "After the Light", Kimberly Clark Sharp describes her NDE - which occured at the young age of 22 - and the subsequent paranormal activity that has surrounded her since then. One type of activity that became rather prevalent was her ability to see, and be affected by "demons" - or spirits that were definately not around to help her in any way. Although she has gone through some really scarey experiences since her NDE, she always comes to realize that their are greater forces of good surrounding her, protecting her when she needs them most. This is the first book I've read where the NDE'r has experienced this type of phenomena, and I found it quite interesting (although I must say that I would not want to be her when these things are happening!). In this book, Kimberly does an excellent job of writing in a conversational-type style - you feel as if she's right there chatting with you, sharing her most amazing story over a cup of coffee. "After the Light" is both easy to read & a page turner - in fact I read this book in just one night because I couldn't put it down! Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in NDEs in particular, and spirituality in general - it's an excellent read!

Funny, Wise Spiritual Autobiography

Sharpe tells the story of her NDE and subsequent psychic opening in a funny and warm narrative. It's a life-story, though, not a how-to book. What makes it a stand-out from the crowd is her comic personality, self-deprecating descriptions and committment to her theme of spiritual wisdom in ordinary experience. It works by lifting you out of your life, sharing in her story, and then returning you to your life with a more thoughtful perspective. You have to be in the mood for winding tale full of magic; if so, you'll love it, and laugh out loud more than once.

My Fav. NDE Books - I've Been There Too

One day in 1995 I died, and had a NDE. Ever since then, I've been reading everything I can on the subject. According to most stories I've read, I had an unusual one, not going down a tunnel, but experiencing many interesting phenomena all the same. It seems to me that there are some NDE books and magazine articles that are just hype, and published just to give recognition. I have found, through my many years and multitudes of books on the subject, that there is an underlining truth and spirit that pervades the true experiences. So, I have compiled a list of my best reads for NDE books - ones that I consider genuine and adding validating light to the personal NDE experience. I have left out compilations, these are personal narratives. I hope you enjoy them too. Embraced by the Light ------by Betty J.

EXCELLENT NDE!

Kimberly Clark Sharp writes like you are her friend and she is sharing her story over a cuppa' tea. Although, extraordinary in terms of your usual reading, Ms. Sharp is believable. She has experienced incredible spiritual moments which have enhanced her life and change your thinking about what's possible. Her words teach us to be open and understanding of what we can't often put into out own words, its a feeling. Reading "After the Light" helps one focus on the spiritual and makes one know without a doubt, how "connected" we all are to one another. It shares many experiences from a spiritual standpoint and you crave knowing more! A very enjoyable book I didn't want to end!

Applying the lessons of a near death experience to real life

After reading many books on near death experiences (NDEs), I have to say I learned a lot of new things from this one. The author's energetic, upbeat personality comes through loud and clear in a very readable, entertaining style. She discovered after her NDE at age 22, not only reserves of personal strength and knowledge of a spiritual world, but that encountering a dark side of the spiritual world can be a growing experience. In addition, she details her post NDE ability to "see angels," as well as battling her grief following death of a loved one, and her personal experience with breast cancer.Well worth reading for anyone interested in this sort of thing.
