The Moment of Death

When I was about 12 years old I became obsessed with what people's thoughts were at the moment of death. I gave the subject much thought and was disappointed when I couldn't think of a way to test my question. Years later I learned of mediums and psychics and was excited to learn that there was a way to communicate with those on the Other Side.

Listening to mediums has lead me to believe those who've passed don't dwell on their last moments though they will give impressions on the manner of their death. This is reassuring to me as I became an adult and learned there are millions of ways to die. It's especially important to know our loved ones who've passed don't "dwell" or are harmed or held back by the critical moment of death.

On a similar note I've often wondered what happens when one crosses over due to a particularly violent or horrifying death or many people die due to one event. Examples are horrific auto accidents, murder or, most interesting to me, a mass death due to an event such as an airliner crash. It's been said the spirit/soul of victims of these types of death depart their physical bodies before the moment of death actually occurs. I certainly hope so. In hearing investigations of jet crashes it seems passengers may be aware of their impending fate for moments or even several (in one instance up to half an hour) minutes before the crash actually takes place. I can think of nothing more horrifying than knowing you are about to die and being totally helpless to escape the situation.

So let's add to the above questions the issue of mass deaths. Without mediumship skills of my own I'm going on pure speculation. For many years I held the belief the souls of a mass death were lost or wandering. Of course, I have no way to verify this.

Echoing Duality is here to learn the views of others. Your opinions and responses to these situations are of particular interest. Many others, especially those who've lost a loved one, could benefit from your thoughts, so please don't hesitate to share.

In peace.

  1. Hello,

    Really like what you are doing. I am a Christian who walks, sees, smell and hears in the spirit realm. My views are always slanted towards my faith. But, God has shown me many things that many Christians would not agree with. So, with that.

    I have sat with two people as they passed. Their spirits did leave their body before their last breath. Do not know much about mass deaths. But, saw a spirit leave a body before impact of a collision.

    I wrote about one situation on my blog. If you would like to read it, it is at http://given55.blogspot.com/2007/09/spirit-of-man.html
