When We Forget We Are One: An NDE Reflection on Division and Humanity

Beneath every conflict lies the same truth: we were never meant to be divided.

While scrolling through social media one day, I came across a powerful statement from a Native American page:

“The moment we heal as a society is the moment both sides recognize that we’re being radicalized against each other by the same enemy.”

I had to pause. It reminded me of my NDE when I had to watch the world review of the Native Americans in the 1100’s. It evoked a truth in a way that goes much deeper than politics or preference.

It pointed to something energetic — something human.

We live in a world where “taking a side” has been packaged as a moral obligation. We’re told it’s honorable — but who, exactly, are we honoring when we do it? Once you look beneath the surface, you begin to see that both sides often rely on the same emotional triggers, the same fear narratives, and the same promises of safety and validation.

The real question becomes: Who convinces you that you’ll be safer? Who convinces you that you’re more understood?

Instead of creating clarity, this false moral pressure only fractures us further. We end up choosing between two versions of the same distortion — not because either one reflects truth, but because we’re trying to avoid choosing “wrong.” It becomes a decision based on tolerable harm, not genuine alignment.

And while we’re busy fighting each other, we lose sight of the deeper issue: the systems, wounds, and historical forces that created this divide in the first place. We mistake opponents for enemies, and we forget that the real fractures are much older — and much deeper — than any modern political narrative.

A Lesson From My NDE

During my near-death experience, I witnessed something that has forever changed the way I understand history and humanity. Jesus showed me a world review — and one of the first scenes was the unbelievable suffering of Native Americans long before this land was called the United States of America. I watched their communities, their language, their culture, and their lives be erased by the arrival of those who wanted land at any cost.

This was a history lesson and a revelation at that same time I was given while sitting beside Jesus. What I witnessed was something I felt so deeply in my soul, a living reminder of what happens when power forgets its responsibility to humanity. The repercussions don’t disappear; they ripple through generations. And the pain remains visible in the collective, an echo of our refusal to treat one another with Love.

Later in my NDE, at God’s table with Bach and Mozart, I was shown something even larger:

the extinction of tribes, cultures, languages, and ways of life across the world and across time. Everywhere.

This pattern of erasure is old. And yet it continues.

The Questions That Rose in Me

Who allowed this? How did humanity get conditioned to normalize harm? Who quietly agreed that certain lives, cultures, or languages were expendable?

These are not political questions. These are spiritual and psychological questions about identity, power, and recapitulation of stories we hand down to the next generations. We have inherited the scars as a united world.

And the deeper truth I was shown was this:

We are all affected by what we allow to happen to one another.

Energy cannot be destroyed — only transformed. Every act, every trauma, every silencing leaves an imprint on the collective field we all share.

What We Refuse to Confront, We Continue to Repeat

Cultures have fought, pleaded, and died trying to create change. And yet the patterns continue  because humanity is fractured. Only because humanity has forgotten why we are here.

Forgotten its interconnectedness as beings of Love. Forgotten its responsibility to the whole because we are all one. Forgotten that “sides” are illusions created by those who benefit from division.

We’ve been conditioned to believe that one side holds the truth.

But the truth is this: both sides are being fed stories, fears, and narratives that keep us from seeing the real issue — our shared humanity.

What Can We Hear Now?

Maybe the invitation is this:

Not to choose a side, but to choose awareness and start to listen differently.

To choose acceptance. Choose compassion. To choose the courage to stand for intellect over convenience and see the bigger pattern.

Because when one group suffers, humanity suffers. When one culture is erased, collective memory is erased. When one community is silenced, the world loses a piece of itself. A Love language.

And when we remember that…healing becomes possible again.
