UMS Guest Posts: 1938     Location: United Kingdom | What Happens When Someone Dies? Part 1 How many times have you heard it said that nobody has ever come back from the dead? To my mind, this is simply not true. Most of us have passed over into the valley of death and returned from it on numerous occasions. The problem is that, in our present existence as earthlings, we have no conscious recall of what happened to us. To find out more, to whom can we turn? First to the Angels. The Angelic hierarchy is in charge of us and our world and has always communicated with us through groups of guides and helpers who dwell in our other world, that of spirit. There are many of these groups and White Eagle is one of them. Each group is headed by a highly evolved Master soul. Under their guidance and protection I am about to share with you something from a White Eagle teaching that appeared in Stella Polaris October/November 2013 under the heading ‘What the Saints Give Up’. By capturing its essence and adding my own intuitive understanding, I hope that together we may be able to shed some light into this shadowy corner of our existence. Here is what they would like to tell you through me: At the moment you pass from the physical plane of life you move for a time into the inner world. When we, your guides and helpers in the world of light, speak to you of an inner world, forget about thinking of this as a state of annihilation or pain. Nothing could be further from the truth. The inner world is one of light and enfoldment, for taking stock and seeing your own soul from God’s perspective. Those who have arrived in the inner world find that their bodies, surroundings and all the things that are there manifest themselves in forms that are as solid and real as those in the physical world. We want to make it quite clear to you that ours is a living world that has nothing in common with a valley of death. It is vibrant and teeming with life that you cannot see during your times on the Earth plane. The only difference between your present world and the inner one is that, when a soul enters the latter, one of the layers of perception, known as the veil of consciousness, is removed. This is a shield that acts like a bandage or blindfold during your stays on the Earth plane. Once again you become aware of God’s true nature and your own as a being of light, who has all Eternity in which to grow and evolve through learning and exploring life on all its levels. There is no judgement day, merely a time for taking stock, when you yourself with the help of the ministering Angels assess your most recent lifetime and all previous ones. Knowing who you truly are, you are bound to have some regrets about missed opportunities to express your true nature. In your sadness about not having been kinder, more loving and tolerant towards all life, you promise yourself to do better as soon as new occasions for doing so arise. New hope rises in you when the Angels explain to you the things that are of real importance. In a gentle and merciful manner they draw your attention to the things you are meant to learn from every one of your appearance on the Earth. When you have sufficiently absorbed these lessons, there follows a period of resting in the state of Heaven, which means in perfect happiness and bliss. As time does not exist on the inner level, we would give a wrong impression by saying that a soul remains there for a hundred, three hundred or maybe even a thousand years in Earth time before reincarnating, if it is going to reappear on the Earth plane at all. Because in our world there is no time as you understand it in earthly terms, we find it impossible to explain the idea of Eternity to you. Time and space are part of the illusions that exist only in humankind’s earthly mind with its purely logical and rational thinking capability. You can easily verify the truth of this in your meditations, for example by imagining yourself ten thousand years or so back and asking your Highest Self to help you relive one of those lifetimes. Memories of experiences that once helped your soul to grow remain the property of your consciousness forever and can be lived again at will. As on the higher and highest levels of life time does not exist, everything that ever happened to you and your present world did so in the vastness of the Eternal now. Whether you can grasp these concepts depends on the level of your present awareness of God’s true nature and your own, as well as the purpose of your existences on the Earth plane. If you think of God as the ultimate and highest level of life and meditate on this, the power of your thoughts lifts you into the heights. Rising into the light at the apex of the spiritual mountain of life, you are bathed in God’s Eternal power and glory. Knowing that you are in God and God is in you, you become aware that on this level past, future, heights or depths do not exist. A feeling of warmth, harmony and love begins to fill your heart and flows from there through every cell of your being, soothing and healing all of them. Wherever some cells are in need of it, they are restored to normal and healthy functioning. This kind of meditation takes you into the dimension of supreme or cosmic consciousness of which many of the scientists of your world to this day believe that it does not exist. They too will understand in due course. – To be continued – From ‘The Spiritual Aspects Of Depression And Suicide’ With love and light, Aquarius | ||

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | Do I Have To Have Another Lifetime On The Earth? What Happens When Someone Dies? – Part 2 The simple answer is: ‘No, you don’t!’ Nobody forces any one of you to return to the Earth. But, having passed through the period of stocktaking and resting in the heavenly state, and knowing that the purpose of your existence is evolution, after a while your soul becomes restless. You realise that, if you ever wish to be released from the treadmill of cycles of lifetimes in physicality, there is nothing for it but calling upon the Angels and applying for another one. Following the advice of the Angels, most souls eventually choose another period of studying earthly life and helping their siblings in the great human family on that plane with their spiritual evolution. We assure you that every man and woman and child who ever walked the Earth has left behind an indelible impression on the ether and has tried to contribute to making your world a better and more beautiful place for all, even if only by stimulating the light of spiritual awakening and awareness in another soul. All gifts, be they material or spiritual, can only come to you through the effects of the law of Karma, and by the will of the Great Father and the wisdom of the Great Mother. Nothing in the whole of Creation happens without them. One of your most vital earthly lessons is learning how to discern between the value of physical and spiritual things. Spiritually, it is better by far for you to lose all worldly possessions and through this receive Divine illumination than clinging to earthly things and concerns. Every one of you contains the Christ spirit. At first it only appears as a tiny bud on the great tree of knowledge. From this state of spiritual childhood it grows into adolescence and eventually adulthood. There then comes a time during one of your earthly sojourns when a decision has to be made by you which master you wish to serve from now. on. Serving two of them at the same time is impossible. The pull of your desires for the pleasures of your lower earthly nature has to be surrendered by you, freely and willingly. This is necessary, so that the saving grace of the Christ Spirit, whose spark you are, can come fully alive in you and gradually take over your whole being. All of this does not have to mean that wealth and abundance of earthly things are wrong, as they provide your soul with tests and trials of a different nature. Whenever a soul is reborn on the Earth plane, the pathway of its coming lifetime is decided by its Karma. In spite of this, the soul itself has a certain measure of choice as to the kind of life it would like to lead. Those who choose to respond to the drawing of God’s light and are longing with all their strength to live in truth, love and mercy by giving service to their fellow creatures find their enjoyment in the riches of Heaven. Being poor in the material part of their lives makes little difference to these souls, as their happiness lies in other things. For example, the beauty and wonder of God’s Creation manifested in Mother Earth’s gifts that are freely available to those whose inner eyes and ears have opened to the higher vibrations of life. During their present lifetime such souls are strengthened, supported and illumined by serving their Creator, whom they now recognise in all creatures and things. By turning their desires away from the darkness of the material plane to the light and glory of the spiritual life, they are building in their hearts a most beautiful state of being and heavenly home. This is how it comes about that highly evolved souls frequently appear on Earth to act as teachers and wayfinders for younger and less experienced souls who are walking the pathway of life behind them. Those who have particularly difficult Karma to redeem, to restore the balance of their spiritual account, may decide to spend their next reincarnation by serving, in saintly ways and possibly in great material poverty, the needs of the underprivileged of your world. In contrast to this, you are sure to encounter people who seem to be lucky in everything they touch. What they are receiving in their present lifetime is their reward for great spiritual efforts and sacrifices they made in others. The bread they once cast upon the waters of life is now returning to them in great abundance. If this is happening to you, you do well not to allow your good fortune to make you complacent and smug. Endeavours of a different kind are expected of you by the Highest to keep the flow of abundance going from this lifetime to subsequent ones. Typical examples of these two diametrically opposed pathways of life are those of individuals like Mother Theresa in her time, John D. Rockefeller in his, and Bill Gates of Microsoft now. Mother Theresa finding great spiritual wealth, while people like Rockefeller and Gates accumulate vast fortunes and spend large parts of them on philanthropy and charities. Once again we would like to draw your attention to the fact that there is no need to be jealous and envious or sit in judgement over anyone because no soul is either all good or all bad. The seeds for monster and saint alike are in all of you, and every soul has the right to know that they are part of the Christ Spirit and therefore worthy of its protection. The more you become aware of your true nature, your oneness with all life and the effects of the Universal laws, the less you will feel inclined to inflict pain on other souls or parts of creation, because you realise that harming others can only bring suffering to you. The Christ Spirit waiting to come alive in each one of you is the light that has the power to heal all infirmities. It comforts and restores each soul. It is the light that comes like a hand to hold yours, when your time has come for walking through the valley of the shadow of death, i.e. passing from the physical world to the inner one. This is the hand that leads every soul to its reward, when its toiling on the Earth plane is finished, into the state of heavenly bliss, rest and peace. The blessings of the Most High, the Great Spirit, Father/Mother of all life, rests upon each one of you to strengthen and uphold you. With great mercy it fulfils every human need.

New user Posts: 2 | What I found upon 3 death experiences was that a decision point occurs. That decision point is "can I remain here in eternal peace or are there others in the physical world that require your existence? Each time I reached that point I determined that I was needed here in the physical element for others, not me. I chose to return. Upon my return I have faced tremendous turmoil both mentally and financially. At times I regret my decision for my own selfish reasons but also understand why I was needed here. Oh, many times I think about why I made that decision to suffer here. But then I reflect upon the pain others would have endured had I chosen to remain at peace. It remains a constant struggle as I continue to face hardships here on earth but then I remind myself again, what would have happened to others, especially my family should I have taken the road to eternal peace. It is for others I remain, not for me. The pain of physical non existence here on earth is burdened upon those you leave behind. Not about one's self. | ||

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | About Angels What Happens When Someone Dies? – Part 3 As pointed out earlier, the Angels are in charge of humankind. From our earliest beginnings, they have been communicating with us through groups of guides and helpers in our other world, the world of spirit or light. Everybody knows the word Angels, but what does it mean? Angels are a great force and a power that sometimes presents itself to humankind in a form we can understand and connect with. Those who already are fortunate enough to be able to see Angels, perceive them as highly illumined beings. Great streams of radiant light emanate from their heads and shoulders that makes them look like wings, though in truth they consist of power and light. The Angels are part of us and we are part of them. Therefore they are familiar with every soul’s individual spiritual maturity and that of our whole world. They are the only ones who know reliably how much of God’s eternal wisdom and truth should be revealed to us and at what time. Theirs is the decision of how and through which channels a new part of it should be presented. As beings from the higher and highest levels of life, Angels are pure spirit who do not require any kind of vehicle for getting about, the way we do. But, whenever it is desirable that our world should become aware of their presence, they may take on a form that resembles a human one. Moving by the power of thought, they have no need for wings, as we know them from our feathered friends. We too shall eventually be capable of locomotion like the Angels. The speed of thought is faster than that of light and even now, by thinking ourselves in another place we can instantly be there, though so far in thought only. However, as soon as we have become sufficiently evolved, there will be nothing to stop us from going on interplanetary exchanges. There will then be no need for prohibitively expensive and clumsy spacecrafts, the way travel is done at present for even the shortest distances into space. If in times to come we want to go and visit some of our cousins in the great family of life on far distant planets, all we shall need to do is think of them and their place and ask our thoughts to take us there. Naturally, this kind of space travel cannot come about for as long as someone’s soul remains trapped in Earth’s illusions of time and space. Quite literally, Angels are everywhere. When climbing a mountain we somehow sense a powerful presence, we are responding to the call of the Spirit of the mountain, who is part of the Angels in charge of the Water element. Those who are fascinated by and drawn to water, be it in the crashing and pounding of the sea or at other times the gentle splashing of its waves, the roaring flow of a great river or the tumbling of waterfalls, are responding to the call of the Angels or Spirits of the water element. Sun worshippers and/or those who enjoy gazing into the flames of a candle or an open hearth fire, are tuning themselves into the energies of the Angels and Spirits in charge of the Fire element. Those who love the sound of the wind, as it whispers to them in the slightest rustlings of leaves or through the howlings of a storm, are responding to the call of the Angels and Spirits of the Air element. The Etheric element is the realm of spirit, God’s spirit as much as Mother Earth’s, the Angels’ and also our own. The etheric is in charge of all the other elements at work on the physical manifestation of Mother Earth’s spirit. The huge orchestra of life is controlled and directed by the power and wisdom of the Great Father/Mother of all life. If your Sun, Moon and/or Ascendant are in one of the Fire signs of Aries, Leo or Sagittarius, you are likely to feel an affinity with the Angels and spirits of the Fire element. If they are in one of the Air signs of Gemini, Libra or Aquarius, it will be for the Air element. If they are in one of the Water signs of Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces, the Water element. And if they are in one of the Earth signs of Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn, the Earth element. It is wrong to speak of an Angel as he or she. Like God, they are androgynous and whole, as we are on the inner level – or rather will be again, when the two parts of our nature have been healed into one again. In God and the Angels the masculine and feminine energies lovingly respond to each other. Harmoniously, they function together and are never in discord and at loggerheads with each other, the way ours frequently are. As soon as another human soul comes forth from the heartmind of God, a Guardian Angel is allocated to it. This Angels never leaves us. Steadfastly, it stands by our side and holds our hand, throughout every one of our earthly lifetimes as well as the resting periods in the world of light, forever guiding, protecting and showing us every step of the way. As we grow and evolve, the Angel’s own evolution keeps pace with ours. Without any unnecessary interference it accompanies us through all our experiences, even the deepest, darkest and most traumatic hours ones. Only when we ask the Angels for their help can any of them intervene and come to the rescue. Angels, the same as everything else in the whole of Creation, including us, are ceaselessly striving to grow and evolve into ever higher and more beautiful expressions of life. To enable them to carry out their duties towards the Highest in the process of Earth’s evolution and ours, they need our assistance as much as we require theirs. The better we cooperate with the Angelic realm, the more speedily and smoothly the transformation of our spiritual rebirth and that of our world does proceed. And we give thanks and praise to You, Great White Spirit, for the Angels taking care of us and the elements with their power to provide us with all the things we require, down to every crumb of the food we eat and every drop of water we drink. Amen. | ||

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | What Is Hope? When things go wrong, as they sometime will, The optimist thinks: ‘They’ll come right again!’, While the pessimist grumbles: ‘It’ll only get worse!’ And as our thoughts and beliefs create our earthly reality, Both forecasts duly come true. Each one nodes sagely: ‘I told you so!’ That’s why when times are hard, positive thinkers Think: ‘They will get better and become easier again.’ Though it may take time, they invariably do. What then is hope? It is not the closing of one’s eyes to Difficulties, risks and possible failures, But an inner trusting that: If we fail now, we shall not do so forever. If we get hurt, we shall be healed. If we make mistakes, we shall learn from them And we shall be allowed to move on to higher learning. Hope is the awareness of our innermost soul that Life is good and the power of love is the most powerful Force in the whole of Creation that Straightens all crooked corners and, if we but ask, Helps us heal everything, Especially our most difficult situations and relationships. Hope is an inner knowing that in God’s time, not ours, All things on the Earth plane will come right in the end. This life is like a great stage on which one of these days, We shall step in front of the curtain Behind which we are presently acting. In the world of light we then shall stand Like performers before a friendly audience Of Angels and Masters, friends and helpers. Every participant of the comedy of errors that is this life, Eventually feels the need to nail the urges of their small self to the Cross of consciousness of the Earth. At the end of their present lifetime, All who were wise enough to Willingly submit themselves to Saturn’s demands And have shown the restraint of self-discipline And self-mastery in all their relationships, Thus leaving behind good and healed ones only, Shall be presented by life itself with a leaving certificate That sets them free from further lessons on the Earth. From them no further returns to the earthly plane will be required And like in earthly schools, their teachers, in this case the Angels, Will move us on to increasingly elevated Levels of existence and studies. This is how all human souls in the fullness of time Take their final bows On this side of the veil of consciousness. United in friendship and love, Smilingly reaching out for each other and, holding hands, We enjoy the roar of applause that greets us. But, in truth we are much more eager to follow the Angels, To see where they may now wish to lead us. Having surrendered our small earthly self to our Highest Self, In the shelter of God’s mighty wings, in all Eternity We shall serenely venture forth, Never to be frightened or feeling lonely again. I will abide in Thy tabernacle forever; I will make my refuge the shadow of Thy wings.’ Psalm 61:4 New in ‘The Spiritual Aspects Of Depression And Suicide’ | ||

I am currently battling my way through a particularly tough spot on my personal healing journey of a thousand miles. On top of that, my computer is in need of replacement, so you won't be hearing much from me for a little while - yet again. I hope you are well. With love - Aquarius | ||

Expert Posts: 2118  Location: The Heart of Space | Greetings all: There are qualifications to this subject....many folks die and come back to life.....it is not all that uncommon as most might think. It is as simple as a flower, which is a very complicated thing. For absolute death: We all will die, but we all will live again, resurrected......but not in the way that one might say "gosh, when I did this before....". It is a rebirth but it is, indeed, and intrinsically, you and I. To my favorite Transmutable Element Girl: it is not a battle...the Qi flows and you must direct it as best as can be done. The message is subtle and you will derive great comfort from its message. It has taught me to understand that each moment is pregnant with meaning. It has also allowed me to live on borrowed time. It allows me to be well, when all things indicate I am not. And, I am well. My remaining cat is now 32 human years old and still in good spirit. She listens to ambient music most of the day and joins me in the mornings in various Qi disciplines. I am blessed to have such a familiar in this life, the longest lived of many. Peace and Love, Marty and Luckylee | ||

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | In St. Matthew 5:5 of the Jesus legend I told you: ‘Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth.’ This message to your world is as valid and true now, as it was when I first gave it to you. Many of you, My human children, are among the meek who are patiently and willingly beavering away in the background of life working on your own healing process. Even if nobody in your world has ever heard or seen them, every step of the way we, the Angels, Masters, friends and helpers and I are observing, guiding and protecting them and keeping them safe. In spite of all that the only true meek ones your planet has ever known were never human souls, but the small creatures of the Earth. Since time immemorial, they have been her true inheritors, especially the worms and insects that crawl about on her, and the microbes and bacteria that are invisible to earthly eyes without a microscope. Pay your respects to the essential work these labourers are doing for and with Mother Earth and therefore also on your behalves. They do not expect anything in return and demand nothing apart from being allowed to pursue the lives they have been given without too much human interference. These creatures are the great recyclers of the Earth who were there long before any of you appeared on the scene. They will still be there and continuing with their work long after every last one of you, my beloved human children, has outgrown their need for spending further lifetimes in physicality. | ||

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | Here is a message from someone you love in the world of spirit: ‘Life is eternal and the human spirit is immortal. In truth, there is no death and life consists of absolute and unbroken continuity. On its inner level all is one, and you are as much part of me as I am of you. Nothing needs to change between you and me, just because I have gone through the great transformation before you. If we both so wish, our relationship can remain the same it always was between you and me, and life continues to be everything it has meant to us. My departure from the physical plane was no accident; it was meant to happen exactly when it did. For your sake – not mine – make an effort to accept this, the way I have done. And don’t believe anyone who tries to tell you that because I am out of your sight, I should also be out of your mind. That can only happen, if you so wish. But if you still want me, the death of my physical body is going to present us with many opportunities for coming closer to each other than it was ever possible, when we both still dwelled in physicality.

UMS Guest Posts: 1938 Location: United Kingdom | Moving On As every flower fades and youth must give way to old age, So all wisdom and each virtue may be valid only in its day. Nothing but our Highest Self stays with us forever. At life’s calling the human soul must say farewell And be ready for a new beginning. Bravely and without sadness we need to Enter into ever new learning, safe in the knowledge that In the background of all life dwells the power of the Unseen, To guide and protect us and help us to live, Wherever our destiny may take us one day. We are meant to move happily through space and time, Without making our home in any one of them, Because we know that our true home lies elsewhere. The Spirit of the Divine never aims To tie and restrict any of us; quite the opposite is true! Step by step the Universe tries to lift us Beyond the horizons of our present understanding. If we are in danger of staying with one particular way of living For too long, our spirit and soul stagnate and start to yearn for Fresh learning through new adventures and further explorations. The awareness that there is no death, that life is eternal, Without beginning or end, helps us to Give in more readily to the demands of life When the time for moving on has come. The hour of departure from the physical plane of life is eased and We can enjoy our rebirth onto a different level of life, Because we know that all it means is learning of a different kind. The realisation that life’s call to the human soul Will never end fills our heart and soul with good cheer. It enables us to say good-bye willingly and happily, Whenever the need arises, and go forward peacefully To find rest and healing in the oneness with God. ‘Stufen’ by Hermann Hesse Freely translated by Aquarius From ‘Comfort for the Bereaved’ * * * | ||

Do not fear the unknown, not even death itself, for with every step you take forward you are entering into a fuller existence. Even when you lose your present body, it is only to enable you to step forward into a world of light. As you do. you carry whatever light in the form of the spiritual wisdom and understanding you are currently presently gaining from your experiences on the Earth plane.

Angel folks are gathered with guides and friends we know – Guides and friends we know. Morning Star lights the way – Earth-bound dreams all done. Shadows gone – break of day – real life’s just begun.

UMS Student Location: Bellingham | death the great equalizer, makes a good king just, and a peaceful beggar reverent. meeting a person whom has died and returned changes your perspective. It did me. Asking questions and having responses to your questions is much more illuminating than reading about the subject. The interview is intense in your knowledge that the experience is different for the individual and personal to them. The best response to this question is not only a question of accepting that you are going to die, but what you're going to do when you realize that you are going to live. There are those who say you need to accept the inevitability of everlasting life. I have no reason to doubt them. life is good! cause | ||

Expert Posts: 2118 Location: The Heart of Space | A Big Hello to Causey......... On the contrary, death is not "the great equalizer" at all. It is not so much that we all "die"; but more so, that some transcend. It is more to do with the passage that MUST be made, and the path the might, should, would, could, be traveled. As for those who were dead but are still alive as returnees, Beck Weathers was DEAD. He chooses to speak in tertiary terms as to why he is walking and talking today....but he was as dead as all his companions...who are still dead! Peace and Peace, Marty and LuckyLee (a 30plus yo cat whom there is no explanation as to why she is still alive) | ||

Even the least evolved souls upon their return into the world of spirit cannot help noticing that in truth they are spirit and soul, eternal and immortal beings of light. At the end of each lifetime, every one of us without exception returns to our true home, the world of spirit, where we rest and recuperate from the trials and tribulations of Earth life. Having once again been released onto that level of life, the freedom we enjoy there may well feel like heavenly bliss, but Heaven itself – the final oneness with God – it is not. As mentioned in the previous chapter, nobody suddenly turns into an Angel at the time of leaving life in physicality. No-one goes straight to Heaven. Whatever degree of consciousness we have reached on the earthly side of the veil in any given lifetime, that alone we take with us into the world of light.

UMS Student Location: Bellingham | Bernard of Clairvaux said also that a person will not understand that final oneness with God until our final hour. Call it evolution, or transformation, or perfection, many see that effort is needed to reach our path to heaven. Bernard was fighting the thought that one can find a foretaste of heaven, because it was not final and therefore not complete. It was hotly debated at the time. I do not know of the individual you mentioned Marten. The person I mentioned was also dead, for a short time. It was most illuminating to speak to her. I believe that you are speaking of this sort of death. Unless, we are speaking of resurrected individuals. i.e. someone whom was buried and buried with no hope for their return and returned. Our body is our vehicle of life. I have been told that this too can be returned to life. Most people believe that one needs a body to be alive. What is heaven? I think that I can speak in faith that I believe the body too can find resurrection. I have a python search integrator that looks for such cases. It is something that I find inspiring at times. I use my search terms seldom now. I am finding it a little too morbid for me to enjoy it. | ||
