Shine On

Amazing, amazing, beautiful book. I absolutely loved it. David’s miraculous and moving story reads like a novel that brings you to tears. He used his spiritual experience to truly look within and change the trajectory of his life…beautifully weaves together the importance of the intersection of psychology and spirituality.–Dr Amy Robbins, Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Host of Life, Death and The Space Between PodcastShine on is one of the most gripping accounts of a near-death experience that I have read. And I say that having interviewed, since 1965, thousands of people who described such experiences. David’s story also evokes…a primal horror of being dragged under and run over by a train. I still remember the chill that went down my spine…–Dr Raymond A Moody, Jr, Physician, psychologist and philosopher, who coined the term near-death experience in Life After Life, sold 14 million copiesWonderful…Shine On is a fascinating account of an extraordinary experience and I recommend everyone read this book to understand the true importance and power of NDEs.–Dr Penny Sartori, author of The Wisdom of Near-Death Experiences

In 2006 David Ditchfield was dragged under a speeding train in a freak accident. As the surgeons fought to save him, he had a profound near-death experience (NDE). When he woke up in hospital, he had acquired astonishing new abilities. He found he could paint dramatic paintings of what he had seen in the Afterlife, far beyond any artistic ability he had before. He then discovered he could compose classical music, having never received any training. To this day, he cannot read or write a single note of musical notation, and yet his debut NDE-inspired symphony, The Divine Light, was premiered at a sell-out orchestral concert to a standing ovation. He lives, paints and composes in a converted riverside mill near Cambridge, UK.
