How to Die Peacefully and with Dignity

Although this page is of universal relevance, I raise this issue at this time particularly for the benefit of everyone who (I suspect) will very soon be faced with the great catastrophe that the forthcoming global economic meltdown and collapse looks like bringing. Once we (or at least most of us) are without useable money, food, safe water and essential services and are faced with an apparent certainty of an immediately commencing lingering and miserable dying process (starvation, thirst, disease, and in many cases, lack of shelter), we do not have to go through all that suffering, and, if we have prepared ourselves in the right way, we can choose to die pretty well at that point in a state of peace and comfort, with no risk at all of dying inappropriately.

I feel a sadness every time I hear of some unfortunate individual who is in a state of terminal decline, who has the awareness and common-sense to understand that it is already time for her to die, yet is being prevented from doing so because of (actually dark force sourced) fear-based beliefs that a person is morally obliged to hang on to life to the bitter (and, all too often, agonizing) end, when the body itself can no longer continue functioning. The medical profession is barbaric to the nth degree in its insisting on trying to extend physical life beyond what is a 'dignified' and reasonably comfortable state for a person to be in - and especially when doing so against the person's own clear wish to die. Unfortunately, a large part of medical 'ethics' is nothing more than dark force sourced control agenda.

If you carefully used energy testing in the right way, you could find out for yourself that that so-called 'pro-life' attitude (actually an anti-death one, which has no true respect for worthwhile life either, and is really about seeking to control other people into a rigid, rule based mode of 'living') is seen by your deepest aspects (which include 'the Ultimate') as very unhelpful and not for your ultimate good at all.

The best and most appropriate time to die, thus, is NOT determined by when the body simply cannot any longer function, and is best determined by the person's own deepest aspects of consciousness, which have a much deeper understanding of what is for the person's, and indeed all involved people's, ultimate good than does the ordinary, conscious part of the mind.

So, as I say, there is actually an extremely simple means of dying, which can be used when you are in a 'terminal' state or situation. You DO NOT have to, and indeed ARE NOT MEANT TO, hang onto life beyond that point (and it is better for yourself and all involved that you don't), and thus you do not have to endure the terminal suffering that countless people go through towards their deaths. Also, if you use this method, there would be no possibility of your dying inappropriately - for example, if you had a realistic prospect of recovery or where a life situation that seemed hopeless to you was significantly less hopeless or worthless than you believed. Thus there is no trace of ethical problem involved. Maybe unbelievable, but true!

All you need to do, when you feel satisfied that this is the latest sensible time to die without getting into terminal suffering (and only YOU - nobody else - can be the judge of this), is, before going to sleep at night, to set a clear intent in your mind* that, if this really is your best time to die, you will die in your sleep, 'now' or 'this very night'. You don't try to make anything happen, and that clear intent is set very peacefully, with a completely open mind about outcome, so you are still fully prepared to wake up in the morning and thus to need to repeat the setting of your intent for the next time you're asleeep.

* It is crucially important for this to be ONLY a setting of intent, and NOT involving any sort of asking or prayer. If you do either of the latter, you are at once giving away your own self determination and effectively putting yourself in the hands of any available controlling forces, NONE of which would genuinely help you - even 'God' or 'Jesus', which two latter are nothing more than illusions created in the mind by the dark force for the purpose of disempowering people and diverting them from opening up their communication pathways with their own deepest aspects, the deepest of which is fundamental consciousness or 'the Ultimate' itself.

To ask or pray is therefore a potent way of blocking your ability to die peacefully through your own choice at the genuinely appropriate time.

You do NOT physically try to end your life, BUT, if you would otherwise be too excited or nervous to get to sleep for the purpose of dying, it could be very helpful to take a relatively harmless but effective sleeping tablet such as Zopiclone (only the recommended dose, and not benzodiazepines, which are all very harmful) just to help you get to sleep. The more you show love and respect for yourself by not taking unnecessarily toxic substances (nor overdoses), the more peaceful and dignified will your death be.

I caution that if you do try to give yourself a 'shove' by physical or chemical means - such as taking an overdose of something - you are attempting suicide and creating a stressful if not traumatic death for yourself. Also, if you do that, you may be killing yourself inappropriately, for only your deepest aspects - not your ordinary mind - would know whether it really is appropriate and in your best interests to die at any specific time.

Such suicides are NOT what I am concerning myself with here, even though I well understand that people who find themselves unable to die naturally because of their attachments may be driven to suicide in the face of the great catastrophe, when it comes. All I can do for such people is to reassure them that what they are doing would not be in the slightest wicked or bad, but would simply be a very sad way to have to die, and they might not be doing it at the most appropriate time for them to go.

In other words, you set your dying intent as though you were doing hands-on healing work in the healthiest manner. Indeed, you help yourself greatly by regarding your timely death as being nothing other than a healing process (albeit not of the body). You have a clear intent and a trust in the process, but a completely open mind about when anything will actually happen.

However, there is a catch. For this to work, you need, first, to be sufficiently clear of any emotional attachment to life or significant fear of death - and the vast majority of people have an enormous attachment, not only to life in general but also to all manner of things (and people) that their life contains, and a huge fear of death. Thus, for nearly everyone (as things are at the moment), for this most natural way of dying in complete peace at a time of one's choice to work, there has to be preliminary work, which may require days, months or even years, to release oneself from such attachments.

That is one of the many benefits that one gains from genuine actualization / self realization work, at least as I present it on this site, for it enables you to progressively clear your attachments. On the other hand, although comprehensive self actualization work is by far the best and most dependable approach, and improves your life immensely in every imaginable way (and more), there is a specific procedure that you can use to help you clear your attachments - Grounding Post - especially when used alongside regular, ongoing use of Self-Power Walking. However, although Grounding Post does work 'as is', it requires something like a monthly repeat of the 'zapping' of the deeper-seated issues till they seem to have dissolved.

The setting of your intent for peaceful dying in your sleep when it's appropriate to do so is actually best NOT left till the specific time that you really need to die. The best strategy is to actually start doing it NOW, every time you go to bed. That would not cause you to die before it is appropriate for you to do so, but what it would do is enable you to actually build into your whole awareness and life experience a clear intent to die peacefully in your sleep when it is eventually appropriate to do so. That is actually part of really good and healthy living, because fear and denial of death actually blights people's experience of life, while true acknowledgement and acceptance of death always enhances the life experience.

Then there would be no difficulty - no unexpected anxiety or fear obstacle - when the time really has come. Indeed, once you have thoroughly incorporated that dying intent into your life experience, you would find that you then have a deep trust that you will die in an appropriate and peaceful manner when 'the time comes', and pretty well certainly you would then die in that peaceful and dignified manner even if you hadn't consciously set a specific dying intent at the critical time (though it would still be best to do so in order to be sure).

Declarations of intent to make the setting of intent more powerful

Although the following declarations of intent (DOIs) would be helpful to some extent for anyone who uses them, for them to be most effective you need to carry out your formal readings of them in the manner described for my sets of affirmations for fundamental healing and self actualization (in the final page of each set of affirmations).

(1) I affirm my intent that I have no obstacles to my dying spontaneously and without external assistance, in a painless and dignified manner, when my own deepest aspects determine that death would be the most beneficial choice for me at that time - and I also affirm my intent that any extant obstacles to that being the case are being dissolved as speedily as can be.

(2) I affirm my intent that when my own deepest aspects determine that it is more beneficial for me to die at the particular time rather than to continue to live (that is, in a degraded and suffering state), my own deepest aspects will enable me to die spontaneously and painlessly in my sleep or in any other situation where it is best to happen - and that this is being made possible as speedily as can be.

For most people I recommend a weekly formal reading of these DOIs - preferably just before going to bed. If you read them more frequently you may be actually cultivating a pattern of anxiety about the subject, which itself would be an obstacle to your dying when it's genuinely appropriate for you to 'go'. However, if you are well advanced in your self actualization process and are really clear about your intent to die when it becomes most beneficial for you to do so, no purpose is likely to be served by repeatedly reading these particular DOIs - though this statement is subject to the indications of your own energy testing on the subject, which would indicate when it's best for you personally to read the DOIs (indeed, if at all!).
