“I Died for Six Minutes and Exp
Across cultures, ideas about life after death vary, yet stories persist from people who believe they briefly crossed that boundary.
One such account comes from Julie Poole, a British author and spiritual teacher whose worldview was shaped by deep personal suffering.
Poole says a life-altering medical crisis in her twenties led to what she describes as a near-death experience.
She recalls entering a peaceful “spirit realm,” where she encountered beings of light who told her it was not yet her time.
When she awoke days later, she says she carried vivid memories and a renewed sense of purpose.
She also claims she was shown a coming “Golden Age,” a period she believes will bring greater equality, honesty, and
compassion, marked by the collapse of corrupt systems and more ethical leadership.
Taken literally or symbolically, Poole’s story reflects a familiar theme: encounters with death
often renew a search for meaning, justice, and hope, suggesting the afterlife may also represent a return to purpose.
