Unimaginable Peace & Hope After Loss

Many of us walk through life with a mistaken assumption that the circumstances in our lives will never significantly change. We somehow take for granted that misfortune and tragedy will only befall others. In some way, we feel insulated from loss and pain.

Our time is consumed with activities that divert our attention from the need for deep thought and contemplation. We shut out things that are difficult to consider, especially those involving loss and change. Instead we choose to focus on more external things. We may treat career as our ultimate master, deluding ourselves in a false view that this life will last forever. In this process, we fail to even consider the potential relevance of our current efforts a century down the road.

Perhaps we have walked a similar path, you and I. Maybe we took things for granted, which were actually most important in our lives. Like the dwellers in Plato's allegorical cave, we focused on the shadows projected on the wall rather than the originating source. We either lost or ignored our connection.

Loss is a significant force that can serve as a catalyst for change. It can bring about an awakening, drawing out something sacred within us. As change unfolds, truths are often revealed that bring us back to our source, clearing away delusional thinking.

I have personally experienced such a significant transformation.

Simply put, life continues; in fact everything continues — life, death, what we are, what those we have lost are — even if we do not see the whole of the reality that is continuing. Those who have suffered the loss of a loved one need not succumb to the pain and despair tied to the notion that the person has simply vanished from existence.

Death is an opportunity as well as a loss. It can be the most terrifying and challenging of all opportunities, all responsibilities.

The truth I have to share is that consciousness and personality survive physical death. My story is one of confirmation, even validation, and also one of unimaginable peace and hope. And, best of all, it is true. ~ says: Mark Ireland
