After the Last Breath: What Comes Next

After the Last Breath: What Comes Next

If you have watched over a dying relative as they breathe their final breath, you know how devastating an experience this can be.

And yet, at the same time, the knowing part of you may sense some degree of gladness that they are finally free… free from pain and free from suffering.

Meanwhile, the newly-deceased person rising into the spirit realms feels more than just freedom; they are bursting with a newfound joy! As they rise in the light and reach out to familiar spirit faces, they begin a joyful reunion with family members and friends who have passed on before them. In stark contrast to the grieving ones left behind, the rising spirit feels that something quite wonderful has just happened.

When we are faced with such occasions, it helps enormously to know what happens after a person takes their final breath. Hopefully, when your own time eventually comes, your passing will be a seamless transition into the light and you’ll pass over leaving behind only a smile and no regrets. Although our survival instinct makes us avoid thoughts of death, as spiritual seekers we have a higher, more compelling motivation. We all want to know what happens beyond the veil of what used to be the unknown…

“What happens in the afterlife?”

In recent decades, promises of heaven have been replaced by actual, documented “facts of the afterlife,” painstakingly gathered from endless research cases. Near-death experiences have been studied until there can be no doubt as to their veracity. Then, to gain even deeper knowledge of the afterlife, many research subjects have been given recall of their past life (and death) experiences using hypnotic regression to open up their subconscious memories.

What we know is this: After their final breath, a person will typically be filled with a sense of peace and freedom from pain while feeling drawn into a higher world of much light and beauty.

As their spirit body resonates to the spirit realms, it will naturally head in that direction. They will see a portal open above them, sometimes appearing like a tunnel of light, because the spirit realms are filled with light when compared to this world.

Their spirit friends, which will include their lifelong spirit guides, will help them to a reception center where their needs will be evaluated for healing and help in adjustment to the new environment. If the person has died after a long and disabling illness, especially if their mind was clouded by the experience, they may spend weeks or even months in a hospital-like rehabilitation setting. Under normal conditions, however, they will be aware, alert, and ready to be guided to their own funeral!

Funerals are very sad affairs for the living, yet perplexing for the newly-deceased person being mourned. They would dearly love to comfort the grieving and assure them of the joy of their newfound existence. At my father-in-law’s funeral – a man who always had a great sense of humor – I received a mental image of him sitting on his casket with his legs dangling over the side and a big wide grin on his face, as if to lighten up the mood of the event. So, I told my wife and her sister what I had seen their father doing and they immediately understood the message. Yes, he always was a great joker.

Once the initial adjustments are made, the new arrival in the spirit realms will be personally guided by a being of light who helps them review their life’s experiences from a higher, soul-centric viewpoint without any sense of judgment being imposed on these experiences by themselves or others.

This heart-centered, non-judgmental environment means that, while a person is still who they are as a personality, everything becomes lighter. The emotional burdens that they may have felt compelled to bear during their physical lives dissolve in the joy that comes easily in their new surroundings.

The afterlife is structured differently to the physical world. There are many realms of existence in the afterlife, each one like a world unto itself, and a person naturally gravitates to the realm best suited to their personal frequency of consciousness. They will live there among like-minded people, typically members of their extended soul family, which will consist of several hundreds of souls, so there will be plenty of like-minded gatherings from which to choose a preferred location.

Consciousness has a more observable influence on the environment in the afterlife because spirit matter is more subtle than physical matter. Spirit bodies are of a much lighter substance, which is why everyone in the spirit realms is able to levitate and travel through the air simply by exerting mental will. A common misconception is to think of spirit bodies as non-physical. Spirit bodies are quite solid to each other, even if they seem tenuous from our dense-physical viewpoint. A better term for matter in the spirit realms would be “quasi-physical.”

The physical world is often seen as a world of troubles, where people are tempted to make decisions that emotionally separate them from others. The afterlife is a world of heart-centered integration, where the separations of physical existence are healed.

There is a great sense of beauty and wonder in the afterlife – something that we need to remember when we bid goodbye to those whose time has come to return home to the heavenly realms.

P.S. Ascension is coming soon, where the whole world will risen into a higher, heart-centered realm of existence: See Ascension To A Higher World.
