My thoughts:
Like most of you, my beliefs are drawn from my experiences. I was raised to be a Christian, and I was until I became a teenager. I believe there is a Creator. I have had moments where I felt the presence of one. I just finish one of Sylvia Browne's book, in it she or Francine decribed this world as a painting, I always saw it as a big patchwork quilt.
I do think there is an afterlife, again from my experiences. During my first regression we were allowed to experience death. I was a blacksmith during that time. I was a man, big muscles, tall, pretty powerful in the community. Its hard to put this into words, but when I died I shedded my body and became this thing (entity?) without a body, but I felt as though I still had the form of a body. I began to "float/sail/fly" (different than astral projecting). Because this sounds so weird, I have to say I'm not crazy, never been on medication, never did hard drugs, or anything like that. As I "sailed" along, I sense there were others even though I couldn't "see" them, (I probably could have if I looked, but I was a little scare at the same time it was the most peaceful and joyous experience I ever had). My arms that I didn't have were outstretch as though I was searching or expecting to grab hold of something. Just when I felt I was going to make contact, I was pulled back into this body.
The second experience that makes me sure of an afterlife was the death of my father. My father never believed in the traditonal God, never went to church, but would always would tell me about finding God in nature. When he died I was 90 miles away sleeping in the family home. I awoke because I felt someone in the house. I realized it was my father passing through & checking things out. I felt him leave, went back to sleep & recieved the call from my mother a little later. Although I have never felt his prescence since that night, and I have tried to make some kind of contact, but have recieved a strong "no" to my searching.
I hoped I haven't alienated anyone by telling this experience. I usually related things & people won't speak to me afterwards, so I usually don't go into things in great details as I did.
