Brinkley "received" his unusual abilities in the summer of 1975 after clinical death, which occurred as a result of the passage of a lightning strike through his body, while talking on the phone. After the injury, Dannion's spirit flew through the dark tunnel to the angel, who accompanied him to the "crystal city".
There Brinkley visited the "Temple of Knowledge" and received 13 visions contained in certain "boxes". The angel showed him 117 pictures of possible future events, 95 of which were fulfilled before 1998. Dannion was resuscitated 28 minutes after being declared dead. He later described his visions in the book Saved by the Light (1995).
1-3 “boxes”: “I saw,” Brinkley writes, that a black spot of age-old debt has fallen on America. Scenes of spiritual regression flashed before me. People became “empty” inside - living shells filled with ambitions, selfish desires and passions”; “I watched these images, in many ways similar to modern movies, and cried in pain for the old values. People turned into beasts. They adopted the laws of the wolf pack.
I saw transparent people, completely hollow inside. This emptiness, as I was told, was the result of the loss of faith in America and its ideals. The war, combined with inflation and distrust of our state system, created a spiritual vacuum, which was exacerbated by the loss of faith in God.
The result of all this was riots and riots generated by the desire to have more material wealth; teenagers shooting each other; criminals who steal cars and arrange firefights. Most of the criminals were children and adolescents with no one to take care of. With excruciating pain, I realized that the lack of family ties prompted them to behave like wolves.
4 and 5 "boxes": Scenes of the age-old war in the Middle East. Religion and economics play a huge role in the problems of this region. The constant need for an influx of external money, anger and hatred - that's what I saw in these "boxes". And there were also two agreements. The first is between Israel and the Arabs (I saw him dimly). The second seemed to me as follows - people shook hands and talked about a new country. I saw the Jordan River, Israeli settlements and a map on which large areas changed color.
The fifth "box" showed me that oil will become a means of pressure on the international economy. I saw Saudi Arabia's alliance with Syria and China. I have seen Arab efforts to destabilize India and Central Asia. The date under the treaty indicated 1992. Pictures of secret laboratories where chemical and biological weapons were developed swept before my eyes. Atomic bombs were a thing of the past. Countries developed new types of weapons.
6 "box": I saw woodland near the river. A huge concrete structure towered beside her. An inexplicable fear gripped my heart. Suddenly the ground shook and the roof of the building was torn to pieces. I knew that this was a nuclear explosion that would claim the lives of many thousands of people. On the background of the vision, the date was highlighted - April-May 1986. Later it was repeated in reality. The explosion of a nuclear power plant near Kiev made mankind forever remember the word "Chernobyl".

The incident blew up the Russians' faith in their government. It was the beginning of the collapse for the Soviet Union. The republics in the south of this empire plunged into narcotic smoke and the blackness of crime. A gloomy cloud spread north and west. But at the same time, I knew that evil would not prevail. The words rang in my mind: “Watch Russia. Whichever way it goes, the whole world will go that way."
7 "box" (ecological religion): I saw images of dying nature and places contaminated with radiation - in Russia, in Europe and in South America. Many countries started investing money in cleaning up the environment. I saw a spiritual leader who called to make ecology the leading goal of human civilization. Followers gathered around him. I knew that he would become the teacher and mentor of billions of people.
8 and 9 "boxes": The war between China and Russia. In 1975, I thought my visions had come true. A border conflict arose between the Chinese and the Russians. But now it is clear to me that the events I saw are in the near future. After numerous incidents in the Far East, a huge Chinese army will break through to Siberia. The Trans-Siberian Railway will be taken with heavy fighting. This will provide China with victory and control over the oil regions of Siberia. I saw snow, lakes of oil and blood, thousands of corpses and empty burnt cities.
10 and 11 "boxes": Visions of economic turmoil and "Desert Storm". I was shown that at the turn of the century, the world will experience an economic collapse. I saw frustrated faces and dollars flying through the air. Europe will try to save itself by imposing severe restrictions on the financial markets of its countries. Around the same time, America is shaken by two terrible earthquakes. Rebuilding destroyed cities will require huge investments. The losses will be so heavy that the United States will cede world leadership to China.
In 10 "box" I saw scenes of war in the desert. In 1990, all these visions were repeated in the military campaign Desert Storm. Iraq, having suffered defeat, left occupied Kuwait and harbored a mortal grudge against Western civilization.
Visions of the 11 "box" began with Iran and Iraq acquiring nuclear weapons. I have seen several Iranian-operated submarines. They were heading for the shores of America and were armed with missiles with chemical and nuclear warheads. In 2004, a book will be published in France, which will provoke an angry outcry throughout the Arab world. After some time, the water supply systems in Paris will be poisoned with a poisonous substance, and thousands of innocent people will die. Around the same time, Egypt will abandon democracy and become a center of Islamic fanaticism. In the same "box" I saw scenes of European conflicts in Yugoslavia and Bosnia.
12 "box": Technology and viruses. These were scenes from the distant future - remember I saw them in 1975 - when scientists penetrated the secrets of DNA and learned how to create controlled viruses. At the same time, Japan, China and the united Korea will take over all the world's computer systems with the help of computer worms. Their corporations will be the only defense against technological viruses that will infect any system, from a household vacuum cleaner to space stations. The heads of these corporations will create the World Government. In the second quarter of the 21st century, a computer chip will be implanted into every person. This total control over people will cause several riots and unrest, but they will be quickly suppressed.
Last Vision: “The Third World War. I saw scenes of chaos and horror from the southern deserts to the northern seas. One of the paintings impressed me more than the others. An army of women in black uniforms and brown shawls marched through some European city. The words sounded in my head: “The fear of these people was so great that it made them give up all their rights and freedoms for the sake of personal safety.
I also saw fields and gardens with a rich harvest, and next to them, behind barbed wire, hundreds of emaciated and hungry people. Several European capitals flashed by, flooded with water or almost hidden under a thick layer of dried mud. The entire North of America was engulfed in civil wars and endless racial conflicts. Millions of immigrants tore through cordons and borders into Nicaragua and Chile. The influx of refugees blew the economy of Mexico and plunged the country into gangster chaos.
The end of America, as a world power, will come with two monstrous earthquakes, during which houses swayed and fell to the ground like children's toys. I knew that earthquakes would happen at the end or beginning of the century, but I could not determine where they were happening. I remember seeing a large body of water - perhaps a river. The costs of rebuilding destroyed cities should be the last straw for a state whose finances are depleted to the point that it can no longer support itself.
The screen showed hungry Americans queuing up for food. Desert war scenes appeared. I saw armies fighting in clouds of dust raised by tank tracks. The gunfire and explosions were like flashes of lightning. The earth shook. But suddenly there was silence, and I, like a bird, soared over the arches of sand strewn with debris of military equipment.
No, the 21st century will not be easy. I know how many disasters can be avoided, but my method will seem unacceptable to you. Although it is very simple - people need to understand and show others that human kindness can change life for the better. Only joint efforts and mutual love can ward off the troubles that are already at our doorstep."
