Your Death

LA FORET MAUVE · September 08, 2003, 00:47:55

hmm...
as for me, nobody !
I would better spend those last moments to clean up my thoughs, bad feelings i could have to be ready for the death "refreshing" experience...

I don't really think I would be able to think about anything in those last 60 seconds, tired or sick as I will be. But if I could I would not care about the afterlife, because that is something I will see by then. I would ask for the people I love to be with me, and hug my boyfriend for the last time.

WalkerInTheWoods · September 08, 2003, 04:14:06

I think I would meditate, trying to keep my thoughts and emotions calm.

I see where this is going Allanon, I mean Ben, oh er, Narrow Path. Sorry for the confusion, it's just that all of you have the exact same IP address.

This is a quiz right? So far everyone's given the wrong answer, right? Please try and actually have a reasoned discussion with people, if possible. Thanks.

Squeek · September 08, 2003, 14:03:54

Hehe... SORRY, but I just HAD to quote this...

"You hear that Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability... It is the sound of, Your Death! Goodbye, Mr. Anderson."

"My name.... IS NEO!"

HAHAHA good times. What. Was I supposed to be serious? Oh. crap. I was way off.

PS - Nick, nice catch on the IP Address! :p

What it's going to come down to in those last 60 seconds is your heart. In other words, it's going to come down to how you have lived your life and if you are at peace with yourself and with God.

I would pray/meditate and would want my wife at my side. I don't think I would be afraid because I know that the desires of my heart are good and I am at peace with God.

For me, you would have a BIG smile on my face.
And then just enjoy the ride.

Sooolong Suckerszzzz!

I would call for Jesus to accept me into his loving arms.

Actually, assuming I was somehow still conscious for the last minute of my life, which is highly unlikely, since if you're in a situation where you know you're going to die soon, you usually don't just suddenly crap out in a second.
That said, in the time before my death, I would probably work to part with my material life, both mentally and with those close to me. I would try to start early at shifting my energy to my higher bodies through meditation and sleep and such, and look towards the progression and reascention into spirit that was about to come for me. Overall I think it would be a pretty theraputic thing after putting up with life here for however many years.

There is someone whom I think I would purposefully break my progress through the astral and higher just to wait for though...

James S · September 08, 2003, 18:05:31

I think I'd lie back, relax, send out thoughts of warmth & love for loved ones that will miss me, then wait - just wait for the vehicle to roll to a stop then get out. At that point it's certainly too late to worry about whats going to happen.

There's a whole universe out there to see, and I already have one or two loving and trustworthy beings on the other side who I know can show me around some of the sights.

I would pull my plug at the start of the 60 seconds. The last minute would probably be painful or at least not pleasant.

WalkerInTheWoods · September 09, 2003, 05:06:03

Grab a piece of paper and pen and write down, "You all have fun in this sh*tty hell hole. I am outta here. Oh and remember I will be watching you ... starting with that cute nurse. Muhahahahaha"

you can check real answers of people who were dying and then miraculously came back to life after an NDE.. check it here

http://www.iands.org/

check the message boards and click on the NDE narratives...
This will teach us (and you) what really happens then, not just pretending it is hapening, but it really hapened to them....

The spirit guides are there to help you. Some people the days (an not the minute) before they leave this world, they start to see their deceased relatives already waiting next to them in the hospital room, they see their spririt guides, some see their religious belief higher entity (Christ, Buddha, etc...), they see angels smiling at them,... some are less fortunate and just die agonizing, some scream, some choke to death, some die in their sleep peacfully,.... and then there are these who are on the battle field, seeing death all around them, corpses, mutilated bodies, death is everywhere and they are part of it, they know any moment it can be them, the smell is everywhere, and so is death. There are those who know, those who have dreamed of their death over and over again. They dreamed they fell off a high cliff into the void and die. They dreamed it again, and then the day come when they climb the cliff and just when it is about to happen they know it, they let it happen, they let go, their time has come... How did this young man knew he would never see his sister again when she left, not that he knew she would die, but he knew HE WOULD. He died in an earthquake in 1960, he was my uncle. And a grand father knew a week in advance his day had come, he was not afraid, he was sad to leave his family. And he left us in 1955.

For whoever has to leave this world, have a nice journey! and say hello to them over there from me!

I take it that none of you believe in a Judgement?

nakibean · September 09, 2003, 13:41:58

I would probably go to my 'special place' (mattheson hammocks in Miami,fl) thats where I was when I was in labor and it really calmed me. I would also think of my aunt who just resently passed away to help me go on to the other side.

Hi Alanon
That is a very interesting question. In all honesty ......I dont know what I would do.........Yep I am that old, and it is a daily possibility. However, I think I would just try to relax and say to myself "well thats it, time is up and we will see now , I gave it my best shot whatever happends now is no longer up to me" (and then I would look around for a tunnel with some bright light)[

]

In a way I feel that you are like the 2 old ladies asking the big preacher D.L Moody : "tell us Mr Moody do you have dying Grace" to which he answered "NO" the ladies were astounded. The great evangelist did not have dying grace. He said "well you see ladies ....I am not dying yet". Even according to the scriptures (Bible) we are to accept Grace for the hour and strenght for the trial" In my opinion none of us can say what we can or will do. We can PLAN TO DO what we hope to say. I would venture to state that if you know what you would do, you are either ignorant or have a lot of spiritual Pride.(I expect the last) I know you say you would call on Jesus, and expect Him to meet you with open arms and say

"well done thou good and faithful servant, thanks for slamming the heathen dogs, thanks for slaying the false prophets, and thanks for cutting off those unbelievers and condemning those sinners to eternal judgement, come sit at my right hand (there is a much better view of hell from up here"

Weather that is what will happen or wether you will crumble at his sight and be utterly crushed under the weight of your own unloving deeds and selfrighteous attitudes remains to be seen. Beware that you do not live your life like the religious farisee who saw a sinner in the synagouge (church) and said in his heart "God, I thank you that I am not like that sinner over there, I fast twice a week tithe and live a righteous life" for as we all know, that sinner in his humility, was closer to God in every way.

I believe in only one thing that decides where you go when you die, and that's yourself. Based on the actions of your life, if overly positive and not spiritually counterproductive, you may as well go on through the cycle of death freely and happily. If your life has been weighted down by negative and material emotions, you could just end up roaming the (hellish) lower planes of existance until you are free of your stupidness and evils.
I guess you could call that judement, but not in the sense the church wants you to believe so that you'll subscribe to them.

Spirit_k9 · September 09, 2003, 14:56:12

I like that question [

]

I know who/what I will call if I need to call for guidance, but I don't believe I will need to. I've spent a great chunk of my life on the journey for an answer to that and many other questions. So far I'm satisfied I know enough not to be too ill at ease with the moment of my passing. Everyone, regardless of belief, has to be truly honest with this eventuality. No doubt it will cause apprehension that will require all that I have become to focus my way through the situation, but I'll do just fine thank you! [

If it just so happens that you are in a hospital bed and know that you have only one minute to live......

And are all alone......

What are you going to do in those last 60 seconds?

Who on the "other side" are you going to attempt call out to for guidance after the death of the physical body?
