What happens when the afterlife doesn’t want you — yet? In this unforgettable installment of The Journey Beyond Death, we dive into three riveting near-death experiences that challenge our assumptions about free will, divinity, and soul purpose. Part 17 is also the seventh entry in our transformative eight-part series featuring firsthand NDE accounts.
We begin with Peter Bedard, whose moped crash at age 17 launched him out of his body and into a realm of unspeakable beauty. There, he met a luminous being with an energy reminiscent of Lao Tzu, who told him — bluntly — that his arrival was a cosmic mistake. Bedard’s tale, both humorous and heartfelt, explores the shock of being "kicked out of heaven" and the deep yearning that follows such an experience.
We’re also joined by Peter Vittar, who lends his own reflections on soul contracts, the pain of reincarnating against one’s will, and the subtle comedy woven into cosmic design. Psychic medium Karyn Reece reveals a multidimensional journey involving departed loved ones and lush celestial landscapes, while Howard Storm recounts his harrowing descent into a dark realm — and his unexpected rescue by a radiant being of light that transformed his atheism into lifelong spiritual devotion.
This episode explores moral responsibility, spiritual awakening, the concept of multidimensional lives, and why death may be the most honest mirror we ever face. It’s raw, revelatory, and at times, surprisingly funny.
