After many years of fascination and study with UFOS including my own documented sightings,  I have shifted over to an obsession with NDES  as this topic seems to be the end of all investigations for me   We will all die, so what happens?  What was it all about, and why?

I have listened to at least 500 of them over the last 5 years and have some questions and observations and would love to hear from all

NDE/ It seems there is no way to understand them unless you have experienced one.  However, we have some earthrealm comparisons given right in front of us.   
Water as an ice cube, then becomes flowing water then becomes  steam . All still H20, just different forms
My favorite is Caterpillar, to cocoon, then rebirth as a butterfly and fly away into a new reality.  I'm sure there are many more.

Some difficult things to grasp.
To understand non linear time or no time experientially . To understand 360 degree vision. To communicate telepathically.  To have a spirit body, and to understand we have always existed as a soul identity and always will.

And we chose our lives prior to birth with the help of our guides , chose our parents and the kind of life we would live for our own reasons for the experience we need .  Why?  for growth?  Why do I need to grow?And that this time on earth is described as a flicker of time by those who have crossed over as being told by those loved ones who already passed.   You need to go back, dont worry, you will be back here very soon.

So some of my questions are,  if we chose our parents and life, we therefore chose our ethnicity and location in the world .  Therefore, we chose to be white, black etc, male, female, trans etc. We chose our height, genetics and looks.

But try understanding this as a slave, as a deformed person, as a person born into a war torn area , and as a person born as a rich superstar simply by their looks, beauty and family money  brings up the "unfair "term .  So we need to understand it is not fair and not supposed to be.  Therefore, all is as it should be.

Yet I understand these scenarios through pondering extremes .
If everyone was so called ugly or non attractive, then it would be cancelled out , and equally if everyone was a stunning statuesque blond hair blue eyed model type, it would be boring, redundant and cancelled out. These two scenarios if a reality ,would teach us nothing.

So it is our differences that matter. And the test is, can we still be awake and aware enough to still love each other while these disparate realities exist.  This is demonstrated in nature with the variety of animals living together while also feeding on each other.  So again, as seeming cruel as it is everything is perfect as is.

My friend Kelly Sammi, NDE experiencer says,  " breath and dont resist"  "breath and dont resist" as advice to all.    So in my mind  the question arises , is there anything to fix? 
Well I suppose there isn't, but our free will gives us choice, and how we choose and how we react are the point.  We are supposed to become awake enough to understand and get, we are all one, and all equal in eventually going home.

So the murderer and the victim are in a dance, a karmic dance, volunteering and playing roles chosen pre birth.  This is quite stressful to grasp.  
And if it's not this?  if the NDE experiencers do not have an accurate description ?  then what is? 
How can we die and there is NOTHING?   "Nothing "is a state of comparison to "something", and that needs consciousness in order to be pondered and identified.

So in the end we are given this model as a way to live .   Be kind, be accepting, be loving.  Not necessarily like or agree with .  
And if we can do this, we can show the creator , hey I get it, and have learned through experience here what it's all about.   We are one big family living the dream / illusion of separation
If not this, I have no clue as to why we are here and what we are doing

THE FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION OF SOVEREIGNTY
Am I sovereign or not sovereign?

***

In a recent podcast I appeared on recently ( link ), the host included a thumbnail, relative to my ET experience that boldly stated : I DIDN'T CONSENT.

The thumbnail was, I suspect, AI generated, and actually the reverse of what was discussed during the podcast. I quickly requested he consider changing the thumbnail -which currently are still on a rotation with others -though I think he may have now removed the one I requested. In my request to him, in the comments area of the upload I felt to be clear, briefly restating my own position. I was soon confronted on what I had said, or rather a viewer’s quick interpretation of what I had said. I would like to bring the ensuing conversation here, I find it critically important, there are many who jump to the same, or similar conclusion as that of the person who has recently engaged me. And, perhaps, more of us can get clear(er) on this subject.

The conversation began:

Casey: Oh my goodness, lol. Trey, the original thumbnail is much better and far more accurate. I hope you will consider putting that one back. I WOULD like to be clear, nothing occurs on a conscious level without our conscious consent, regardless of what the experience may feel like, or be conceptualized as from our end. Please note the original context of my words are relative to the content of expanded states entering our conscious, ground-level awareness —though I feel they hold across the board.

Other Person: "Nothing occurs on a conscious level without our conscious consent, regardless of what the experience may feel like," - thankyou for confirming that children are molested because they agreed to it and gave consent, lambs get eaten by wolves because = conscious consent, great spiritual lesson thankyou so much.

Casey: It is an easy error to make -it is not me who has jumped into it, though. If I might speak on my own behalf, what I have said in this podcast, and indeed mean in what I have written above, is that we, ourselves, ARE the reality we are experiencing. In this reality we make choices, and we experience these choices. One of the more fundamental choices we make (in life) is to frame ourself as either 1) sovereign, or 2) not sovereign. In my comment above I am saying that I am consciously choosing to frame myself as sovereign; to observe that reality is from the inside out. Though I experience this choice, I am also periodically tested in my resolve. There are many, perhaps even a great many, with more of a tendency to choose, for themselves, the latter; this choice may have the tendency to draw circumstances through which to experience the choice. An ability to see this in no way, shape, or form equates to saying that children (or anyone from the point of being born) consents to be harmed. This is not only an inaccurate, but horrifying thought. This said, the choices we do make in life, whether allowing ourselves to sufficiently cognize them or not, are not without potential consequence. And, again, one of the more fundamental choices we make for ourselves is the stance of being sovereign or not sovereign. So....choose wisely ( yes? ).

Other Person: Sovereign versus not sovereign - don't see it this way at all, it is predator versus prey.

Casey: Thank you for continuing.. Sovereignty, and the question/choice of sovereign or not sovereign is fundamental and rests at the basis of all further potential choice, all further potential duality, or dual relationships, such as the one you have brought to light, that of "predator/prey". Prior to the coloring of oneself in this light, is first the frame working of oneself as either sovereign, or not sovereign. Each of these provides a path, and itself is the fundamental building block with which experiences upon it are constructed and moved through. Again, choose wisely.

_____________________________

I am fairly certain this person's conversation with me will end here.

There remains, though, a far greater expanse of potential inquiry by which further clarity could arise.

Are you processing ideas within a similar vein? Share them here.

Where do you currently stand? Where are you still in question?
What would a test of your own resolve look like?

The discussion is OPEN >>>
