International Association for Near Death Studies
In 2006, The Rhine Research Center at Duke University hosted a conference "After Death What Do We Know?" The panel consisted of a scientist, minister and medium. The weekend conference shared, through summaries of a triple blind scientific study and the stories shared by the minister and medium, that consciousness survives death.
Although I had read numerous books about near death experiences, reincarnation, life between lives, etc. it did not provide the personal human connection of meeting with a group of people who also shared a NDE experience and how the NDE changed my perceptions and priorities in life.
I was fortunate to hear about an IANDS group in Virginia Beach that met weekly. It was a place where I could share my story without fear of ridicule or disbelief. More importantly, it was wonderful to realize I was not the only person who had an experience and to listen to other people's NDE's.
IANDS is an international organization of people who have had near death experiences, or are interested in learning about near death experiences. Members come from all walks of life, including medical and scientific backgrounds. IANDS provides resources and local meeting groups to share their story, support and knowledge to educate people on survival of consciousness.

Good YouTube video highlighting several OBE and NDE accounts.
One of a Vietnam Vet who lost his limbs in battle, and told of watching everything from outside of his body.

Involving her NDE, this girl of 25, matured some 30 years or more.
"Party Girl" meets God.
Objective perception of her "worldly" life, and involving judgement.

In "Journey of Souls" Micheal Newtown PhD, writes about beginner souls whose lifetimes explore ego; from a beginners perspective, life revolves solely around them; intermediate soul lives explore what it means to relate to others outside of themselves, family, community, race, class, gender, etc; advanced souls recognize the interconnections between all life in context to the Universe and beyond; what their place is in it and how their actions affect the whole.
In the Party Girl video, her perspectives and impressions are filtered through her limited life experiences as a beginner soul as she stated she realized in retrospect, her life was basically all about her.
So in trying to describe what is indescribable in her NDE, she addresses the dual nature of this world, good vs evil, dark and light, etc. and attempts to apply dual concepts to the afterlife experience which is non-dual in its nature.
She uses the word "pleasure" in an attempt to describe it, but since there really are no words to describe the wholeness of the "feeling state" it is something one must experience to understand.
It also appears that based upon her ND experience, she has moved into the beginnings of intermediate understanding. Best wishes...
