Experience description:

Overuse of drugs, lack of sleep and tiredness We returned home from a trip after sixteen hours of non-stop driving without accommodation. At that time, I was twenty-five years old and I used opium and downer pills (but now, thanks to God's help, I don't use drugs anymore).

Although I don't remember exactly, I guess that I've been used more drugs to not fall asleep while driving. When we got home it was four in the morning, I only had an hour to sleep and then I had to move to my workplace. I was lying down and threw the blanket up to my chest and I was a bit in my thoughts and I couldn't sleep. Then I tried to pull the blanket over my head with both hands and sleep. When I lifted the blanket and pulled it over my head, I was surprised to see that both my hands came up, but the blanket did not come up. I looked at the space of the room and saw that beside it was night and dark, but there was a bright golden light, like a golden little bits had spread in the room. It was a strange and beautiful combination as if it was the darkness of the night and at the same time there was this golden light that was spread everywhere and could be seen everywhere. After that, I saw the streets of the city for a moment, the solitude of the bright street lights was the darkness of the night, and at the same time, there was a bright golden on the other side that lit up everything. It felt like the light came from a distant source and illuminated the world and spreading throughout the world.

It was here that I had the feeling that it is my soul that is seeing this state, although in this state It felt that my soul is still in the body, but it also had an awareness and intuition of the city sky and I saw at a glance.

There was no fear, it was a sense of neutrality, lightness and more towards beauty and enjoyment. With the things I saw, I said to myself that if so, it means that I have died and it is my soul that sees. (Of course, it Should be mentioned that at that time I had not yet heard anything about other people's near-death experiences that spoke in that about light and color). But I understood that even if it is a soul, it is still sleeping in the body.

I tried to get up and try to see what the matter was, as soon as I wanted to get up from the lying position, I saw that, on the contrary, the body was slouching from hip area and it stands up and sits down, with an arched posture, my soul rose up from head to my waist and I could clearly see the separation of my soul from my body. When I saw this situation, I thought for a long time that I still have a lot of half-finished works and practically, until that age, I had not done any good deeds that would be useful to me in the afterlife , And until then, I was all looking for benefits and my personal pleasures and enjoy.

That's why I was scared and I didn't want to die, and as soon as this happened, I returned to my body and consciousness returned to my body and everything returned to normal. I myself hesitated whether it was a dream or reality. But since I had never seen such light and color mixed with darkness before, and everything was so real, I guess that it was really a near death experience.
