US Navy officer Tony Woody shares how he died and received a welcome party from God. In 1982, while stationed in Hawaii, Tony was on a flight at 10,000 feet [3,050 meters] when the engine failed. During the emergency landing, the rudder pushed in the wrong direction and the plane ran off the runway toward a fire truck. Tony knew he was dead. In three seconds, he thought of his wife, son, and family— what truly mattered. He was about to lose it all and felt terrified. Suddenly, he was both inside and outside his body, watching the scene in slow motion. Time distorted. Outside his body, he felt calm and detached. He saw a propeller spinning, two blades missing the fire truck by millimeters. He saw the man in the silver suit scream as the wing passed. A soda can flew by his window; he read the label: 10 ounces. He saw fluid come out and atomize into drops. Tony’s awareness gradually expanded until he knew where every piece had been and where each would go. What should have been chaos felt like sublime perfection. Then the plane stopped between two runways, and Tony’s awareness snapped back into his body. He finished post-flight duties on autopilot and went home silently wondering what had happened. Days later, he and his wife watched “That’s Incredible!” featuring Leslie Lemke, a blind and severely disabled man who had suddenly begun playing gospel music flawlessly after years of silence. Tony recognized it as a miracle. That night, he prayed briefly, thanking God and adding, “Lord, it would be nice if You could do something like that for me someday.”

Lilia, a friend he met later, explained from the teachings of the Venerated Enlightened Ascended Master Saint Germain (vegetarian) that such sincere prayers are “calls” which compel Divine response— God honors free will and only acts when invited. That night around 3 or 4 am, Tony woke in a black void before a Being of molten golden-white Light. The brilliance was beyond description, radiating infinite power, wisdom, and unconditional love. Tony instantly knew he was before his Creator. Yet instead of judgment, God threw a cosmic celebration: “Tony’s back! Yahoo!”— communicated telepathically. The love that poured into Tony was boundless. Overwhelmed, he gasped, “Oh my goodness.” The words triggered another flood—this time of pure goodness, distinct from God’s Love or joy. Lilia later said it was Tony’s own goodness, reflecting the oneness all souls share with God. Tony felt an irresistible pull to merge with the Light. Then he noticed hands before him—his own. His bedroom came into view; his wife slept beside him, and he wondered how she could possibly sleep through all this. The Light filled the entire end of the room and replaced the wall with a vast circle of living radiance. God was literally in the bedroom. When Tony realized this, the Light began to shrink, taking about two seconds to fade. His heart broke as it vanished. Crying quietly, he begged for it to return. Just one more second— that was all he wanted. He sat until the Sun rose.

Seeking answers, Tony went to church but was dismissed by two pastors. Later, a military officer warned him to stop talking about it or risk his career. Feeling cast out from Heaven and Earth alike, he struggled for years to understand. Decades later, through the Saint Germain Foundation, Tony found answers. He learned our soul’s true purpose is to become an Ascended Master. This does not mean spiritual or moral superiority over others— it means mastering your own consciousness. You bring God-Consciousness into power and use it in service of the Light. Tony has come to believe that Earth is a vast spiritual training ground where souls learn to love like God. “The Light never, ever fails. It’s all for a reason and a purpose, and we’re being protected. I don’t know what the Total Plan is, but It’s gonna be awesome!” (Shaman Oaks)

Elevating quote of the day: “O, you who love watching movies, Scrolling, chatting, chasing all worldly entertainments, If only you knew the God inside you is the ultimate Entertainment; That the momentary pleasures you chase endlessly could be multiplied a thousand-million times in the Glorious Kingdom you carry within.” — Soraya Khalilpour (vegan) American Poet
