Communing With the Dead, Fear of Dying, Post-Death Transitions
Death and dying is the common thread of this, another Ask Me Anything episode.Having already embraced the Vedic worldview as it relates to death, two of our listeners pose questions about relating with loved ones who are no longer in the body they knew them to have. Thom’s replies provide reassurance to all of us, and remind us that we already have the skills necessary to maintain relationships and cope with transitions that come about through the body death of those that we love.And another listener, who has overcome a fear of her own death, questions Thom about fears relating to the process of dying, specifically any pain or suffering that might come with that. Thom delivers some comfort by taking us to the other end of the life journey, the process of birth.Episode Highlights: [00:45] Q- How to Deepen Communication With the Deceased?[01:17] There is No World "Out There"[01:56] The Kittens Experiment[03:07] The Difference Between a Kitten Brain and Human Brain[04:16] Loving From a Distance[05:16] Not In the Body[06:21] Abstract Communing[07:47] A Little Quiet Conversation Inside[08:52] Using the Consciousness the Way It is Designed[09:24] Q- How Do I Address Fear of Pre-Death Pain and Suffering?[09:46] The Sensation Base Experienced By Mothers[11:14] Boons From Shri Krishna[12:51] A Boon For Krishna's Mother[14:10] Q- Do We Know When a Loved One is Reincarnated?[15:12] Enjoyment vs Attachment[15:56] AdaptationUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoles/https://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoles https://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
