"I Saw A Shimmering City" - Aaron's NDE
About this episode
Aaron tells his story publicly for the first time.
At eight years old, Aaron Gould was dying of pneumonia in a California hospital, his body withering away under a doctors' pronouncement that nothing more could be done.
Instead of the ending his family braced for, Aaron slipped into a full-blown Near Death Experience — pulled through a tunnel of light into a shimmering, alive darkness, greeted by a tree, a "glass house" city humming with warmth, and a being he calls the Mother of Creation.
In this episode of Round Trip Death, Aaron walks host Eric Bennett through the sensory overload of his NDE Experience: water he could hear but not see, a path that lit up beneath his feet, and a profound, wordless conversation at the top of a staircase where he was told, simply, that it wasn't yet his time.
From a childhood NDE to a decades-later spiritual awakening that reshaped his faith, Aaron's Near Death Experience raises haunting questions about what waits on the other side — and why some of us are sent back.
Tune in for a rare, unpolished, first-time telling of an NDE experience that's stayed with him for over thirty years.
