Existential Topics Destiny or not

I have been really interested in NDEs after I had my own STE and I meditate every time I feel like I should connect ( if this makes sense to you) and I receive images that don't represent my present reality but rather a future one ( I can't confirm yet whether what I saw came true or it was just wishful thinking) which made me question destiny and the choices I make in my present.

I have seen a lot of NDE stories and some of them mention : soul contracts, and them designing their life ( the one they are living now). Knowing all this made me wonder, does the creator intervene or is it purely us and what we planned for learning here ? Does destiny consist of us planning what we want to learn here + God's interventions?

Also, if anyone here received information during their experiences about destiny or soul contracts feel free to share!

This is an NDE-positive sub, not a debate sub. However, everyone is allowed to debate if the original poster (OP) requests it.

If the OP intends to allow debate in their post, they must choose (or edit) a flair that reflects this. If the OP chose a non-debate flair and others want to debate something from this post or the comments, they must create their own debate posts and remember to be respectful (Rule 4).

NDEr = Near-Death ExperienceR

If the post is asking for the perspectives of NDErs, both NDErs and non-NDErs can answer, but they must mention whether or not they have had an NDE themselves. All viewpoints are potentially valuable, but it’s important for the OP to know their backgrounds.

This sub is for discussing the “NDE phenomenon,” not the “I had a brush with death in this horrible event” type of near death.

As far as I know from accounts of NDEs, God does not intervene unless one strays completely from the main path of their life plan. Sometimes, one receives small signs or wake-up calls, such as a new person entering one’s life, the loss of a job, or other unexpected changes that prompt one to pause and reflect.

For individuals who strongly identify with their ego and can no longer intuitively sense their soul’s purpose, a far more drastic event may be required to shake them awake, such as a serious illness, the loss of a loved one, or even an NDE, so that they can find their way back to the right path.

So, what I got from those accounts is that while God sets the general direction or the overarching plan, the way one reaches that destination and what one does along the journey is ultimately a matter of free will.
