Alert – I died and came back after being shown the true meaning of life… everything you’ve been taught is wrong

 A lawyer and devout Catholic grew up believing life and death were black and white until an extraordinary experience changed her entire view of the universe.

During a near-death experience, Nanci Danison of Ohio said she received an astonishing revelation that everything in existence is part of an energy source that incarnates inside humans as what we call souls.

Danison told the Daily Mail she was shown the true meaning of life while meeting with this energy presence, which she refers to as ‘Source.’

The former attorney claims her soul traveled to a place she said most near-death experiencers never reach, while her body lay lifeless in a hospital mammography room after an allergic reaction to anesthesia and cardiac episode stopped her heart.

Danison said she encountered several beings of light before meeting the all-powerful Source.

‘It’s not a being of any type. It’s not an entity of any type. It’s an energy source,’ Danison explained. 

She described it as incredibly curious, creative and unconditionally loving by nature. Many people, she claims, interpret Source as being God.

However, Danison explained that her meeting with Source didn’t make her more religious. Instead, she said this supposed journey into the afterlife transmitted life-changing information into her mind, including humanity’s real purpose on Earth.

‘Source puts itself, its consciousness, its self-awareness, into every creature and thing in the universe,’ she claimed.

‘So Source can be on the inside, looking out, experiencing what all these physical matter things can feel,’ Danison continued.

In 1994, Danison experienced this life-altering event during a radiological procedure.

The procedure involved inserting a large needle with a wire into her breast tissue, guided by mammogram imaging, to mark cancerous tumors.

The radiologist’s first attempt missed the target, requiring a second injection of an anesthetic.

This second dose triggered a severe reaction and arrhythmia – when your heartbeat becomes erratic as the flow of blood to the heart is disrupted or stops.

Suddenly, her racing heart seemed to calm, bringing a moment of relief. However, Danison hadn’t realized yet that her heart had stopped completely.

At that point, Danison claims her consciousness left her body, and she could see herself still sitting lifeless in the mammography suite.

‘I was in black, total blackness, but I saw a pinpoint of light in the distance. The light came at me. It rushed at me and surrounded me,’ she claimed.

‘I had the experience that so many near-death experiencers share, which is the overwhelming, unconditional love, unconditional acceptance. It was just magnificent,’ Danison added.

However, that’s when her experience took a profoundly different turn from other near-death journeys.

She remembered seeing five glowing figures in the distance, and claimed these energy beings, shaped like humanoids with radiant light, approached her. 

Danison told the Daily Mail she instantly recognized them as her eternal, beloved friends. They communicated telepathically, expressing joy at her return.

She also began receiving what she called ‘knowings,’ or direct downloads of universal knowledge.

These downloads included the revelation that no such place as Hell exists, contradicting common religious teachings.

Danison added that she also learned how to improve life on Earth and that the concept of religion stems from ancient, speculative human ideas. 

‘I got information about the fact that time does not exist. It’s an artificial construct that humans have created for themselves, and that math is a language like English,’ Danison claimed.

‘That mental illness is the misinterpretation of behaviors of some people that are more of a supernatural nature, and just a bunch of other stuff about reincarnation. Just a ton of stuff,’ the lawyer-turned-author revealed.

She added that the beings revealed her soul had ‘volunteered’ to live as Nanci for a specific mission – to be a catalyst in other people’s lives.

Danison said she felt an immense sense of belonging with these light beings. They were her true home, and had names which were in a language humans couldn’t pronounce.

Her experience deepened as she ‘awoke’ from her life as ‘Nanci’ and became a part of Source again. She claims Source also gave her access to its memories and knowledge about the creation of the universe.

According to Danison, Source imagined the physical universe for exploration. It expelled energy, setting rules like gravity and physics.

This act of creation resembled the Big Bang, forming a universe within Source’s mind. Souls were created as characters to experience this dreamscape.

Source showed her the history of Earth, focusing on religion’s evolution. This vision clarified why human beliefs often stray from universal truths. 

‘There is no one true religion. There’s only truth itself,’ Danison claimed.

Danison’s experience differed from many of the near-death experiences reported over the years.

Many of these involved people who claimed they spoke with angelic beings, entered Heaven, or even descended into a painful realm they described as Hell.

Danison noted that she calls her experience a ‘going into the afterlife’ event, not a near-death experience.

The author of several books on the afterlife claimed that 98.5 percent of near-death experiencers never get beyond the threshold of the afterlife.

She found that these individuals often feel love and peace, like Danison initially did, but interpret these moments through their pre-existing beliefs.

These near-death experiences have led many to become more religious, seeing their journey as proof of their faith.

Danison contended that this limited their understanding of eternal truths. The author has researched thousands of afterlife experiences and could only find 32 others that met Source and learned the same truths of existence she did.
