In January 2008, Ruben experienced multiple respiratory arrests from pneumonia culminating in a cardio-respiratory arrest. During his NDE, he floated surrounded by brilliant white light, descending through white clouds. He found himself moving toward a beautiful landscape with green meadows, rivers, butterflies, and birds, approaching a hill with a tree on top. The sensation was wonderfully tranquilizing with an intense desire to return to that feeling.

Before reaching the tree, the landscape darkened and he felt pulled backward at great speed, returning to the hospital surrounded by people. Though weak with difficulty breathing, he couldn't stop thinking about that place. He later told his cousin and sister who were moved by how close he came to not returning. He feels peaceful knowing he will return to that place to stay.

--- Biblical Summary ---

Biblical elements: The experience includes ascension through brilliant light and clouds to a paradise-like realm with perfect natural beauty. The meadows, rivers, and tree on a hill evoke Eden-like imagery. Being pulled back before reaching the destination (tree) suggests divine timing. The peace and beauty align with biblical descriptions of paradise.

Unbiblical elements: None identified. The natural paradise setting and peaceful emotions align with biblical descriptions of the intermediate paradise state.
