I go thru this everyday my only son passed in August 2006 he was 21. It is 2024 and I do the same, I think of him every day, and of what the future might have been. It’s painful to think of the graduations I missed, the wedding I will not see, and the grandchildren I’ll never have. I realized though this is more about me, and see that in the present moment I have been blessed with so many other things in my life that I am grateful for everyday. The thought of what might have been then is not so constant but the thought of him everyday is. My son and I were one we were so close so I do feel his essence as you say too. When he passed I felt his presence for a few years after he passed. It gave me great comfort. As the years passed I felt his presence leave me. Although I’ve never considered this feeling inside of me as being his essence, that brings me comfort. It helps me understand that then he was present to comfort me in my grief, then left me his essence when he felt I was strong enough to live with his Essence because I feel him inside me everyday. I accept that’s a blessing and cherish everyday that I live with him inside of me. Until the time comes when we shall be together. I thank this young woman for her courage to speak these words out loud, it’s thoughts friends and family don’t want to hear, they’d prefer you move on. To her I say hold on to your heart and remember that you carried him for nine months inside of you, his essence will always be with you. I thank you Mr. Tolle for bringing this subject up on here, it has helped me to name this feeling I carry inside of me since Michael left.

When I lost my father 24 years ago, the sense of loss was unbearable. Then one morning I looked into the mirror and realised how much of his face I saw there. The sense of loss crashed into me like a truck out of control. But then immeidately I realised - almost like someone whispering the advice to me - my father LIVES IN ME. His blood literally flows in my veins and I am the part of him that continues. "When you miss him, go look into a mirror. That's all you have to do." It helped a lot that I do physically look like him, though I'm his female child. I also ressemble him in temperament.

The heart has such a power to feel love that it can overcome the loss of our dearest ones.I also lost my son in Sep 2019 when he was almost 28. The love for him is so powerful that,even in my deepest grief, i find my love for him getting stronger even he is no longer physically present. Yes, i still do feel sadness but i have no regrets because we really enjoyed 28 years together. I really feel blessed to have been in so good company and to have discovered the miraculous power of a love which never dies. I now hsve no fear to leave my body because i am nurturing a love which is not affected by death.

@dantheman5826 4 месяца назад

Hey, thank you for sharing. The loss of a beloved one can be one of the most challenging things we experience. However let yourself be known that you are not alone and countless people experience the same loss. However it always takes time to process it and thats normal. But as there are also people who have experienced the same loss, there are families who are about to experience the same, with even younger children. Why not try to transform that feeling into motivation to help others around the world who are really in need. There is so much you could give if you are willing to restrain your lifestyle a little bit. Starting to care about orhers who have experienced similiar loss and in honour of your loss, why not try to transfer this into something positive? I am sure that those who we lost didn want us to be sad, they would rather want us to open our eyes to similiar fates.

@wajihaabrar9171 4 месяца назад

Even as a stranger, I felt her pain that I cried. I was afraid to listen to others' pain because I took too deeply, that I imply in my own life. But, i learned that it is okay to have empathy for others ( to feel is good)/ thinking about it, which leads you in a superstition is illness. Now, I try not to think but feel in a moment, and I pray for her and for every mother.

@catphillips4335 4 месяца назад

Seeing this was a gift. I lost my 23 yr old daughter a couple of months ago and I could feel this mother so deeply. It's unimaginable, greeting each day in panic and disbelief. The spiritual masters, like Tolle, are true healers for a grieving mother. So grateful 🙏💖✨️🦋

@dantheman5826 4 месяца назад

Hey, my regrets for your loss, but I would like to let you know that you are not the only one who experienced great loss. My best friend died recently about the same age, but life is still a gift and at the end of all steps there is acceptance. Give yourself time but also know that no matter how old we are, or where we come from, we are all in some greater way connected and as you feel pain, I can totally rely to that and want to cheer you up the best I can. We all come to this world and we go again, but we have the power to transfer suffering into something beneficial. I would suggest that you try to do something good, something that you feel like you can give. Take your time and go trough all the steps of loss and then let yourself be know that this is not the end but only the beginning to transform your feelings of loss into some form of goodness, use it as a step to awakening and work towards a clear mind. In my opinion thats the greatest gift that you can give in honour of those who have deceased. ❤

we have prior lives. some of us have near death experiences dying visiting heaven being revived and sent back to body to tell the world. nothing to fear. the other side holds who we are, where we came from. its all love we are inextricably connected. but it doesnt make losing a loved one on earth easier. just believe and know your loved one is still around you.

@johngreen4683 4 месяца назад

@@MargaretMichelle1912 hi Margaret, people often experience lost loved ones coming to them when their own time is coming to an end, science explains this experience as being the result of a chemical being released in the brain so as to make passing easier and less fearful for us. If science is correct, (I have no idea if it is or isn't) but if it is, then something somewhere must love us so much that it doesn't want us to suffer in our final moments on Earth so it created this chemical within our brains to make our passing easier for us, and anything that loves us all this much is surely to be very gratefully trusted in 100%, whether scientists or spiritualist are correct all is and all is going to be so much more than well 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I just lost my dad in August of 2023, and when I went for a walk in the morning in March this year, which felt like the first day of Spring, it truly felt like his essence was all around me, almost shining down on me from the sun. I started playing music on my headphones, and one of the first songs was together again - janet jackson. I was like, man, I feel like he almost lives through me. He cared so much about eating healthy and exercise, and I care about that more than I ever have in my entire life. I'm being more musical than ever before. (He had that gift as well.) I'm living life just as he would want me to and growing all the time. Death is there to teach us that when we're faced with a loved one's ultimate transformation, we also have to transform for the best as well. Grieving is fine, but we're not learning if we get all consumed by grief. I don't even feel like the same person I was when he was alive, and I mean that in the best way.

I hope your grief isn't tender as my words below might hurt you. It's just your brain taking memory to make imaginations. Ever since my brother's death 11 months ago, I've been getting various kinds of dreams especially vivid ones past a week which are like yesterday. In dreams I feel like he's next to me with his never lasting smile, but when I open my eyes I come again to reality. It feels like the dream is reality and the reality is the dream. I find it all to be the brain's activity and nothing more though I want to name it something spiritual. One day, even these will fade as the grief is never the same like the first few months of his demise. Soon he'll become memory and our lives will go on. We are just trying ways to cope up with the loss and that's it. Spirituality makes it easier. Believing they aren't dead and will forever be with us just gives us some relief but in reality I don't think that's the case. Even I wish to believe in the afterlife because it sounds so beautiful.

And then waking up to the reality that it's just a dream and since other people within the dream are still alive and not asleep at the time the dreams occur it is evident that it can't be anything other than imagination. It can be extremely depressing to understand that they are gone forever but the thing i struggle with most is knowing that one day we will also be gone and won't be alive to be with our loved ones, life seems ultimately very unfair and cold but there's nothing we can do except accept it.

@@diveguy4291 I've never been fearful of my own death and I don't feel sorry for that. One day I'll be dead and will be in peace but those who love us miss us. I only grieve other's death when they had aspirations but cut short which could have been fulfilled if they were alive. Why should we fear death when it's the ultimate of anyone's life? I think death is beautiful. If after death is true like what we see in many NDE encounters, isn't that beautiful as well? That life goes on? Why do you fear your death? If you don't like dying young, then just take care of your health by eating good, exercising and spending quality time with loved ones. Take care when you go outside by being safe on roads. You'll love longer and will not regret living long. If at all the destiny of yours is to die young, then you'll not be there to grieve your own death!! So being fearful of your own death is like dying everyday while living. Don't you worry. Everything takes care of itself.

@nostromo7928 4 месяца назад

Maybe, in part, because we forget the time before we entered this life? We were formless souls before we incarnated. Then, we enter this life in a physical body and gradually forget that we are NOT our body. We're surrounded by shapes, forms, colors, and sensations of every kind (trees, cars, birds, clouds, mountains, other people, hot and cold, tastes, smells, sight, sound, touch, etc.) Many of us will be taught that these things are pretty much all there is to life. Later, if we're lucky, we start to awaken from the dream of this life and find our way back to the knowing we had as children before we forgot who we really are: eternal, indestructible beings who came into this life to learn and grow and love before we shed our bodies again. Buddhism says that all forms wear a mask of illusion and behind the mask is the essence and only the essence is real. The rest is just a dream. I don't know if this helps you but I hope that if you're grieving right now that you can take comfort in Eckhart's words. He is such a kind teacher. 🙂

My son passed in 2/7/2003 he was my closest friend, I still have no words to describe this un reconcilable loss ❤ This year 20/5/2024 he would have been 50 years old.

I'm sorry that you've had to endure so much pain and I hope that Eckhart's words are something that gives you comfort. Our loved ones really are still with us. They've shed their bodies but they are very near us and continue to love us as we do them. We can't help missing their smiles, laughs, hugs, and all the good times but we will shed our bodies too one day and they'll be right there to welcome us and help us make our transition. Your son still loves you and is as near as your thoughts. ❤️

Beautiful guidance and advice from Eckart. We lost Cara aged 11 in 2019 to a brain tumour and created the Is Mise Cara Brain Disease Foundation. Our second book called Signs from Cara and Beyond takes Eckart's wise advice about essence and includes stories from other families about meaningful synchronisation after a loss. We find great peace in the essence of Cara and the signs through which we believe Cara's spirit appears in different guises. From dreams to white feathers, a song or a robin. Our loved ones are always showing signs and the more open you are to seeking these signs, the more you move back towards your and your loved ones souls and away from mind/ego/pain. Bless his lady. It must be so raw after two years but peace is within reach ✨⚡✨❤️

The moment my beloved and so beautiful Linda passed, I knew that, as beautiful as her “form” was to me, that which I loved was not her form. Suddenly her “form” became empty. I suppose that is why I still sense her and know that she is still very much a part of my life. Yes, I would call it her “essence”.

This is absolutely true.. my mother passed away 5 years ago.. and my father 9 years ago.. i feel them every moment with me .. and has built a new relation with them to the extent that i feel i love this new version of them and really got used to these new ones .. and would never feel i miss those who passed away .. even though my relation with my mother was such a unique and very close one❤❤❤

Brilliant, brilliant, profoundly important question, and very well phrased. Nearly everyone who has ever loved anyone, from a spouse to a pet, will face this. When she spoke it was as if she was speaking for me. And great answer too. Not a platitude but an actionable, respectful, rational, strengthening process.

Merci d'exister avec autant de présence. ❤❤🙏🙏

Aboriginal peoples have conceived of something I have heard called, the ‘Grateful Dead’…wherein one lives well to honour the essence of those we have loved and lost, so they know that, as far as we are concerned, they did not live, and love us, in vain. It’s awful when the Power of Then overwhelms the Power of Now. Love Eckhart for talking here about the eternal essence of all things, released from their form. While you live, make the dead you shared love with, grateful 💁‍♀️

@@lovinglyle_lovingyou The idea is to encourage the spirits of those we have loved and lost to be grateful for the time they spent with us..cos they loved us, and didnt want to leave, but Death called and they had no choice…to see that we live better for their having been with us 😀 we value them

This resonates with the Advaita Vedanta Philosophy of ancient India which declares eternality of Self and Oneness of existence, which one should realise to overcome grief and get eternal fulfilment. “The intelligent man knowing the Self, bodiless, seated firmly in perishable bodies, great and all-pervading, does not grieve.” - Kathopanishad.

I lost my son on 6th April 2023. The pain is unbearable, especially seeing his three young children and so wanting them to remember him. I have become aware, in a more mystic and 'spiritual' way about death and the purpose of life, from texts / Gospels found in the Nag Hammadi desert which underpin this belief. That the realm that divides life and death are so thin - that our loved ones, my loved one is close. I share about them on some videos made for family and friends to share the awakening to these revelations. I pray for all those in this awful pain. I recognise that through this pain, as Eckart says here - there is a deepening and a very real connection with essence.

Such a beautiful and helpful interaction. Thank you. 🙏 I'm deeply grieving the amicable loss of a 15 year relationship. No physical death, thank goodness, but the grief is devastating and sometimes unbearable, leaving me feeling utterly broken. The idea of bringing the lost one from my past into my present and holding them with me is lovely. He was and is part of me right now, and I can love what the relationship gave me and taught me then, right now. He can be in the present with me without heaviness or clinging to the past, and we can move forward together, just physically apart. We want happiness for the other, and it can be so. 🥰

This is so beautiful to hear as I have experienced this feeling in the last couple of years now with loved ones who have passed on. I used to grieve deeply for years, but since I started to recognize my own essence, I am connecting within to their own essences too, and my grief is no longer as deep. Hearing Eckhart explain it in words is very helpful to me. 💜🙏
