This article is about reaching out to a departed loved one and actually connecting in some way. While this may seem impossible to accomplish, I imagine that it happens all the time. Because we don’t know where the human spirit comes from or goes after death, the idea of making contact is no more unbelievable than any other aspect of life that appears mysterious. We have little knowledge of the potential of the brain and it’s possible functions under a variety of conditions. So, why not conceive of an interaction with those who have passed over?It has happened to my twice. Once, when my mother passed away from cancer at the age of 52. About six months later, she appeared to me in a dream along with her mother, They were both as real as could be and explained how things were fine where they were. She attempted to comfort me knowing I had had a series of nightmares and interrupted sleep for the days following her untimely death. This startling intervention made me awake with a start and shook me to the core. Days later, I had a newfound calmness and slept better from then on.The second incident occurred after my wife passed on a few years ago. She had a sudden heart attack at age 55 and I was again shaken up. But again, after months of restless sleep, she appeared in a dream where she was back with her departed father and seemed happy once more. With this revelation, I was relived and could return to my regular life with a renewed sense of relief from guilt and dread.I am not saying that dreams are the only way of making contact, but they are the most obvious vehicle for those who have passed to reach out to us. If there is a thin line separating our world from theirs, then it seems a logical choice. I would also think that deep meditation where one would literally enter a trance-like state could be another. The trick is to allow the brain to relax and clear itself of the daily thoughts that cloud our mind. We worry and stress over so many things, both large and trivial, that we don’t allow outside influences to enter our minds. If a departed friend or relative were trying to make contact, we shut them out. That’s why hypnosis may also be an avenue to consider.That’s not to say that making contact is always possible. It depends on both parties and the will and willingness to make the effort. In addition, I believe that time plays a factor. The longer the deceased has been gone, the harder it becomes. This may be because they drift deeper into that other dimensional world that has less connection to ours. Therefore, if you do intend to reach out, do so as soon as you are able after the event has taken place. I am not a particularly religious person, but more of spiritual being with a scientific bend that imagines a series of multi-dimensional worlds that are often mentioned by quantum physicists. They are now using these worlds to explain the big bang theory where all matter emanates and eventually drifts. So why not assume that the human spirit also follows that flow? Anyway, consider the possibilities and perhaps that will ease the pain of your loss.
