I love the story of the near-death experience (NDE) of Anita Moorjani. It is told in her riveting book, Dying to Be
Me, which I encourage you to read. Anita’s NDE powerfully teaches us that
we have the ability to choose the direction of our lives as well as the
parallel realities that correspond to those choices.
After four years of living with Hodgkin’s lymphoma,
Anita’s body was beginning to die of organ failure, and she was given only 36
hours to live. She was drifting in and out of consciousness, and felt her
spirit leave her body. In this disembodied state, she felt surrounded by a
profound, unconditional love. She also experienced total clarity: she knew why
she had the disease, what roles her family members played, and why she had come
into this current incarnation in the first place.
At that moment, Anita understood each
human being’s immense potential to create life. She was given the choice to
continue into the nonphysical realm, allowing her body to die, or to return to
life and teach her fellow human beings how magnificent we all are and that we
have the power to create heaven on Earth. Anita was concerned that if she
returned to her physical body, she would continue to be sick. In response, she
was shown that her decision to live or die would determine her reality. If she
chose to live, her body would heal very quickly. If she chose to die, her body
would die of organ failure. This is how Anita has described it:
I was made to understand that, as tests had been taken
for my organ functions (and the results were not out yet), that if I chose
life, the results would show that my organs were functioning normally. If I chose
death, the results would show organ failure as the cause of death, due to
cancer. I was able to change the outcome of the tests by my choice!
Time seems to have a completely different meaning on that
side. What I felt was that all possibilities exist simultaneously—it just
depends which one you choose. Sort of like being in an elevator, where all the
floors of a building exist, but you can choose which floor to get off on. So if
all the future possibilities exist for me to choose from, then I assume all the
past scenarios exist, too. So depending on which future possibility I choose,
that will also determine which past automatically comes with it (I chose life,
so it affected the past, choosing the appropriate test result for the organ
function)….
When I was being presented the choice, I actually saw a vision of my lab report, which said, on the heading: Diagnosis: Organ Failure. Then on the body of the report: Death due to organ failure caused by Hodgkin’s lymphoma. When I actually saw the report after coming back, the sheet of paper looked almost identical, and the heading matched word for word: Diagnosis: Organ Failure; however, the body read: There is no evidence of organ failure. I actually got goosebumps looking at that report, knowing what it could have read….

I discovered that since I’d realized who I really was and
understood the magnificence of my true self, if I chose to go back to life, my
body would heal rapidly—not in months or weeks, but in days! I knew that
the doctors wouldn’t find a trace of cancer if I chose to go back to my body! …
I understood that my body is only a reflection of my internal state. If my
inner self were aware of its greatness and connection with All That Is, my body
would soon reflect that and heal rapidly.
Anita’s beliefs about
life and who she is were so dramatically transformed through her experience on
the Other Side that every cell in her body very quickly reflected her new
understanding. She’d had tumors the size of lemons throughout her body when she
was admitted in the hospital. Within days of coming out of the coma, the tumors
had shrunk at least 70 percent. And five weeks after entering the hospital, she
was released to go home because there was no evidence of cancer in her body. A
week later, Anita celebrated her birthday—and her new life—by going out to
dinner with family at her favorite restaurant.
