During my sleep
somebody shook my shoulder strongly. I opened my eyes and there was my dead
father standing by my bed. He told me "Be quick. Find your brother." I was very
scared because I was totally awake when I saw him and he was so real, alive
standing by my bed. I was even smelling his scent. I run to my moms room leaving
him behind and wake her. It was 3.30 at night. Because she knows my dreams comes
true (she has the same ability too) we make coffee and begin to wait. At 6.00 my
brother came home walking. He had a car accident at 3.30. Even the police
couldn't believe how they could get out of the car alive.

How do you currently view the
reality of your experience?
Experience was definitely real
Please explain
why you view the reality of your experience as real or not real:
My brother had a terrible car
accident at the same minutes my father woke me up. I had several dreams which my
dead ones give me messages after that and once (15 years after this experience
and 8 years before now) I saw my dead ex-fiance in the middle of a shiny summer
day on the street for nearly more than 20 minutes.
Was the
experience dream like in any way?
No
Describe in detail your
feelings/emotions during the experience:
shocked, surprised, couldn't
believe, afraid
Was there any emotional
healing in any way following the experience?
Uncertain
I believe my dreams a little
more and more relaxed when I saw dead ones in my dreams
What was the best and worst
part of your experience?
best part was seeing my father,
worst part was getting afraid and running to my mom's room instead of staying
near him and trying to speak, communicate more with him. he didn't come much
even to my dreams again. I lost that opportunity because of my ignorance and
fear.
Did you have any changes of
attitudes or beliefs following the experience?Uncertain
My dreams were coming true all
my life but this was the first experience I had which I was sure I was full
awake. Maybe it caused me to pay a little more attention to my dreams. But still
I was an atheist for more long years.
Did the experience give you
any spiritual understandings such as life, death, afterlife, God,
etc.?
Yes
this experience and the other
ones I had after that made me search about dreams, life, energy etc in time (a
long period later) and changed my opinions. At least I am not an atheist any
more.
Did you observe or hear
anything regarding people or events during your experience that could be
verified later?
Yes
my brother had the car accident
at the same minutes
What emotions did you feel
during the experience?
shocked, surprised, couldn't
believe, afraid, desperate until my brother turn back home
Did you have a sense of
knowing, special knowledge, universal order and/or purpose?
No
but in some other experiences I
had
Did you become aware of future
events?
Yes
I was having that awareness
before the experience too but I was not paying attention. I have that awareness
all my life.
Did you have any psychic,
paranormal or other special gifts following the experience that you did not have
prior to the experience?Uncertain
I have those gifts all my life.
I am not sure if they get more fallowing the experience. But during a period (15
years after the experience) when I was making meditation they became more and
more that I had to give up meditation.
Have you shared this
experience with others?
Yes
They believed. Most of the
females at my mothers side has the similar gifts and dreams, so it not so
unusual for them. They tried to make me believe God etc more but couldn't have
any influence on me. I made my decisions, change my mind in time myself.
Have you shared this
experience formally or informally with any other researcher or web site?
Yes
Nearly a year ago my disaster
and war dreams became repeating so much and I decided to search about dreams.
During my search I saw many web pages and I may have share it with some of them.
Is there anything else you
would like to add regarding your experience?
Will, it was unbelievable but
unique.
Did you ever in your life have
a near-death experience, out of body experience or other spiritual
event?
Uncertain
While I was 10 years old I had
a hearth operation which they stopped my hearth and connected me to a machine
during the operation for 6-7 hours. I am not sure if it can be counted as a near
death experience. I don't remember any out of body experience, I am having a
dream journal for only 10 months now. But I had many spiritual events. Some says
I have a third eye.
Did the questions asked and
information you provided accurately and comprehensively describe your
experience?
Uncertain
I wish I had been writing down
my dreams and experiences than. There maybe more details which I can't remember.
