QUESTION:
A question from K.K., Denver, Colorado. We asked the other question last night about her mother dying in an auto accident. In this other question, she writes: "In thinking of my mother, I have another question. Regarding the recent death transition of my mother, I seem to have periods of time when I feel extremely sad, and somewhat in pain. In spite of all we have learned about — there is no death, but simply transition to another life plane and that our learning experiences are ongoing — these feelings still keep coming back. Why doesn’t the intellect affect the feelings? And what will it take for us to finally integrate these teachings?"
COSMIC AWARENESS:
This Awareness asks if you really would want to deny yourself the feelings of sadness at the loss of your mother?
This Awareness indicates it is one thing to have an understanding of the mind, but why deny the feelings their right to expression or to experience?
This Awareness suggests that it is appropriate that the feelings feel sad at the loss of someone who is loved even as a child, left alone at home when the mother goes on a long trip of several months, can be very distraught over not having her mother with her.
This Awareness indicates that even with the intellect knowing that the mother has gone on to another experience, the intellect also knows the mother is not coming back to this lifetime experience. The child within you, the feelings, has lost its mother. There is good reason for it to feel sad. It will not experience another loving touch or look or speech or conversation with its mother.
It is a time to grieve. You should not deny the grieving aspects of having lost your mother. This Awareness indicates the more and the sooner you can grieve over this and not deny the grief, the quicker you will heal so that you can go on with your life. There is nothing else you can do. You cannot bring your mother back.
The intellect is totally incapable of doing this, the intellect does not even have the ability to grieve. It is the feelings that can grieve, and this is very important for entities, when they lose something or someone they love, to feel grief and to express that grief.
To deny the expression of grief only prolongs the agony and prevents the reconciliation of the loss.
