Embracing Life through Hardships and Challenges
November 18, 1973, Betty Eadie, author of Embraced by the Light experienced death and a profound Near-Death Experience, after hemorrhaging from surgery. That changed her life and sent her on a journey that continues today. Betty knows that life does not end when we die. Death is a rebirth into a spirit world of light and love, a transition from the physical to the spiritual that is no more frightening or painful than passing between rooms through an open doorway.

What is Spiritual Competency for Healthcare Professionals?
Spirituality and religion are important aspects of human diversity that should be explicitly addressed by healthcare professionals. Multicultural training is routinely included in coursework and internship programs, but it rarely includes training in Religious and Spiritual diversity. Yet polls show that spiritual and religious backgrounds, beliefs and practices, [and experiences (STEs)], are important in most people’s lives. Dr. David Lukoff is a co-author of the DSM IV and DSM 5 diagnostic category Religious or Spiritual Problem.

Gnosis in a Future Science of Consciousness
The classical scholar Peter Kingsley has argued that the origins of Western philosophy are to be found in direct experiences – of mysticism and gnosis [STEs] – rather than in Socratic dialogue and reasoning, which was a later development. Sadly, western society has lost our roots and center represented by the Self, and our identity is primarily shaped by outer factors and quantitative perspectives of modern science.

Shining Light on Awakening
We are all going to die, but few of us have looked closely at the process of dying, usually because we are afraid. But as death approaches we may experience phenomena which are both comforting and reassuring. You may have a premonition that you are going to die, visions of dead relatives who reassure you, and, as death approaches, may enter a transcendental state similar to what seems to happen at the moment of death. These and other important phenomena will be discussed in the talk.

Gary L. Wimmer – The Great Awakening. In 1977, Gary was involved in a head-on collision with a speeding car. He traveled to dimensions and worlds beyond imagination. That Near Death Experience (NDE) changed his life forever. The entire human race, individually and collectively, is also facing monumental challenges and their consequences. Why? Because humanity is experiencing a Great Awakening. Gary has been a professional medium, healer, teacher, spiritualist, and clairvoyant for 45 years.
Ruth Rousseau Clothier – Gift of Life Here and Now. Ruth is a multiple STE experiencer who had her first NDE at the age of 16 months, from radiation on her spine. She returned to before embodiment and learned that Creation is within. This awareness stayed throughout her life. As a 20-year-old pregnant in a cardiologist’s office, her heart stopped twice. When she went “over” she was encompassed in absolute love and given a choice – return to a life of heart problems or hold on to absolute Love.
Claudia Watts Edge – Soul Contracts: Our Pre-Planned Promises. Claudia had a profound NDE in 1984, when she was shown “The Room of Choices” where she and her son Jesse prepared for their earth experience. Many decisions had to be made for potential adversities and circumstances for further spiritual advancement. She learned that Earth is not our true home. It was created for us to learn and grow, and although promises were made, free will takes precedence over any preplanned situation, and can be changed.
Russell E. Ricks –You’re Not Alone in This Journey. Feeling misunderstood as a young boy with an undiagnosed disability, Russell pleaded to God through prayer to take him away – to take him to a place where he would feel safe and loved. What followed was a Near-Death-like Experience, a STE where he learned he was genuinely loved by God. He learned God loves us and wants us to know He is with us. We are eternal beings. We all have a spark or portion of Divine eternity within us.
