Awakening: Exploring Near-Death Experience Through Art

My Descent into Death
Near Death Experience

​Books have the power to transport us, but rarely do they spark a transformation as radical as the one ignited within me by Howard Storm's "My Descent Into Death." This wasn't just a story; it was a revelation. It challenged my perspective on life, exposing the hollowness of my pursuits and prompting a deep yearning for something more meaningful.

The book's exploration of near-death experiences (NDEs) resonated deeply, leaving me with a conviction that there was more to our existence than the mundane reality I knew. Suddenly, the pursuit of material possessions felt hollow, replaced by a yearning for something more meaningful. It was a call to action, a nudge towards a life lived with purpose and compassion.

​​This awakening became the genesis of my "Near-Death Experience" art collection. Each piece serves as a bridge between the earthly realm and the ethereal beauty described by NDEs. While individual experiences vary, my research and personal interpretations weave together common threads – threads of boundless light, transformative love, and profound connection.

Capturing the Ineffable: A Visual Language for the Beyond

My NDE art collection is a manifestation of this transformative experience. It's not just an artistic expression; it's a bridge between the seen and unseen, a visual representation of the ineffable beauty and wonder described by NDErs. Through my art, I strive to offer solace and understanding to those who resonate with these experiences. For those who haven't had an NDE, these pieces aim to spark curiosity and open a window to a realm beyond the ordinary.

Each piece in the collection depicts a different facet of the NDE experience, drawing inspiration from research and personal stories. Imagine swirling oceans of light, vast and breathtaking, representing the boundless universe that envelops NDErs. Feel the warmth of embracing energy, a symphony of colors whispering secrets of existence itself. These are just glimpses, mere echoes of an experience that transcends words.

Reunions in the Light:

Some scenes depict the heart-wrenching yet beautiful reunions that often occur during NDEs. Familiar faces, perhaps a lost grandparent or a cherished spouse, emerge from the shimmering veil, their presence radiating love and acceptance. These aren't just memories; they're tangible encounters that evoke joy, forgiveness, and a profound sense of belonging.

Imagine a place where earthly burdens dissolve, replaced by an all-encompassing peace. This is the essence of "Unburdened Soul," where swirling cream and turquoise hues create a sense of weightlessness and serenity. The piece reflects the transformative power of NDEs, where anxieties and regrets melt away, replaced by forgiveness and acceptance.

This collection aspires to be a beacon of peace and understanding, offering a visual language that resonates with those who believe in a realm beyond. It invites the curious to step through the canvas, glimpsing the boundless love and transformative potential that lies veiled. But this journey isn't just for the curious or the bereaved; it's for anyone seeking a life of greater meaning, fueled by compassion and a deeper connection to the universe.

Through this series of art, I hope to inspire a collective awakening, a reminder that we are all part of something bigger. Even in the face of mortality, there is beauty, love, and purpose waiting to be discovered.​

Closing Remarks: A Life Transformed by Love

As Howard Storm's words echoed within me, a profound truth resonated: we are not merely humans navigating a physical world, but spiritual beings on a temporary journey. This life, fleeting and precious, is not merely about accumulating possessions or chasing fleeting pleasures. It's about loving God, a love that manifests in learning and doing His will – the will that whispers through acts of compassion, forgiveness, and unwavering love for our fellow beings.
​
My art collection, then, becomes more than just an aesthetic exploration; it's a testament to this transformative understanding. Each swirl of color, whispers an invitation to shed the burdens of the ego and embrace the boundless love that awaits us all.

Perhaps, as you gaze upon these pieces, you too will feel a shift within. Maybe you'll see the world through a new lens, recognizing the divine spark in every living being, and the sacredness of every interaction. Remember, the greatest masterpiece we can create is not on canvas, but in the tapestry of our lives, woven with threads of love, compassion, and service.

​May this collection be a gentle reminder that our true purpose lies not in material pursuits, but in loving God, a love that radiates outwards, transforming not just ourselves, but the world around us. Let us walk this human experience with open hearts and outstretched hands, remembering the profound truth whispered by countless near-death experiencers: we are loved, we are connected, and love is the only thing that truly matters.

Dear Ms Lourry Lagarde, Sunday May 19,2024

My colleague and I are teaching an online class June 9th, 2024 about the principles of the Nearing Death Experience as outlined by Kathleen Dowling Singh in her book The Grace In Dying.

Your exquisite imaginations of these transpersonal realms would be such a wonderful focal pt for our discussion.
We are wondering if we might show Unimaginable Realms, Luminous Soul and Unburdened Soul on the Zoom platform during our discussion.

Thank you so much for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Dia Walker CM-Th and Sulis Cerddeu Cm-Th
