Posted by timethief in Due to the suicide of a close friend, the disappearance of another, my own preoccupation with escapist thoughts and my response to posts written by a fellow blogger on the topic of suicide, I’ve been thinking a lot about death this winter.
IMHO there are no coincidences. My friend Richard’s most recent post is about being called upon to assist in the transitions of two people leaving the earth plane and entering the spiritual plane saying, in part: “… I am simply a conduit for the spirits.”
In reference to my own time of grief, Richard shared these words of wisdom directed to me in a comment on his blog:
“Loss and death are as you know, part of life, but that thought does not make the loss of a close friend or a loved one any less sorrowful. We need to take the time to grieve and honor those feelings and then we let them go.”
I have been contemplating what Ulla Jacobs has to say about The Law of Transition as well. Ulla Jacobs, is a visionary. She has been a researcher for over 35 years and is the author of Hidden Laws: Ultimate Tools for Divine Co-Creation. When she discovered universal law, Ulla realized that she had found the key to self-empowerment.
Awareness and understanding of nature’s laws allowed for pro-active involvement in day-to-day interactions with others. This knowledge provided a basis for the need to dispel negativity and fear, in order to keep from drawing more of the same. Ulla believes that these are the principles Jesus came to teach over 2000 years ago.
She writes: The Law of Transition governs a process that many seem to fear - death. This law provides for a smooth exit, a shift from one reality to another. Guides and guardians are there to provide support and love, making this a comfortable transition from physicality to the spirit world. No one “dies” alone!
Once we arrive at the point of transition, we get to leave all acquired wealth and materialistic gain behind. We take along the knowledge and wisdom gained from experiences and dramas we encountered. We take along the feelings of accomplishment for things done well and good deeds delivered, along with the feelings of love that bind us strongly to family and friends. -> Read full article
I’m wondering if my readers would like to share their thoughts on this subject with me.
Brightfeather, I’m so sorry to hear about your experiences. I’ve just started catching up with blogs again after a break and I’ve just read back through some of your posts here… I’m stunned and don’t know what to say except that your open letter and this post have touched me enormously. I’m sorry to hear that you lost a friend; that your thoughts would have turned towards death would seem natural to me.
I don’t believe in coincidence either and I read your post having been thinking about death myself recently. A close friend died when I was very young, around this time of year. If she’d lived I imagine she’d be finishing university now and I often think about what she would be like today. I try to remember her in life, but it’s a difficult feeling to shake at this time of year.
My friend’s death was an accident but a family friend overdosed when she was a teenager and I still remember that clearly. Everyone said she had become angry and wasn’t the same person, but I thought that was a cop out. She was a beautiful girl who surrendered to loneliness and despair; it was sad, but we failed her in many ways too. I don’t know if someone being there would have made a difference but it upsets me when people say their death was awful, and then go on like nothing has happened. I think thinking about death is a natural reaction and a part of grieving, rather than separate from it… when people don’t react at all, that’s when I start to wonder if they feel anything and how much they really cared.
I’m not familiar with Ulla Jacobs but I’m interested in Hidden Laws after reading that. Sounds interesting. I haven’t found any one philosophy I feel strongly about but I enjoy different ideas… I’ve always seen death as more final or a rebirth, but the way this draws on the principles of various religions is very interesting. Even Tipler’s Omega Point could come into that. I’ll have to check it out.
Thanks for posting this, Brightfeather, and good thoughts to you, always.
I’m tearing up again so before I’m awash I want to say thanks so much for reading and for sharing cj.
