To all parents and family members, I am very sorry about the death of your child’s earthly body. (I use those words because your children didn't really die – just their earth-suit did. That's an extremely important and comforting distinction.) I’m glad you are learning how to optimally heal and transform despite this seemingly senseless tragedy. Six keys to doing that are to remember the following about your children . . .
1. Over 99.9% of who and what your child IS (not was) continues in the next phase of life. This is true no matter how they passed on and at what age. See the collective evidence for life after death in these articles:
#1 Scientific Evidence That Bodily Death Is NOT the End of Life
#60 Clinical Evidence That Life Continues After Physical Death
#115 Firsthand Experience Evidence for Life After Death
Their love, energy, sense of humor, memories, personality, and much more continue in the next phase of forever. We know this is true through scientific study of postmaterial (the so-called 'deceased') people and clinical data from near-death experiences, life between lives sessions, and evidential medium reports.
They are happy, peaceful, loving, and enthusiastic – and want you to be the same. Read article #2 When a Child Changes Worlds to learn how you can do that.
4. You will see them when you pass on and can enjoy a different kind of relationship now. To learn more, see article #9 Visit With ‘Departed’ Loved Ones Now and #28 Afterlife Contacts. Then use the free Afterlife Contact Session audio program at Shop.
5. You can choose daily to transmute your grief into a spiritually transformative experience that powerfully improves your life and blesses others. To learn how, see article #82 Greater Reality Healing: A Higher-Energy Path After Big Changes / Losses and watch my videos at Greater Reality Healing.
6. You can heal yourself and create more meaning to your child's life by helping others. Also, consider the possibility that your and your child's souls / consciousness volunteered to take part in a meta-plan as described in article #119 Helping Yourself, Others, and Our World.
After a child transitions from earth, family members understandably feel much pain, sadness, anger, guilt, and other lower-energy emotions. No one could or should ever judge you about that. However, many people have learned to regularly use the above keys to feel more peace, joy, love, and gratitude. To learn more, see article #108 Higher Energies, Emotions, and Ways of Being.
You can do the same. It’s not easy and it usually doesn’t happen overnight, but it is possible via daily small steps using those keys and the following seven action steps . . .
- Attend online HPH meetings shown at Calendar and attend local Affiliate Groups. (If there's not an in-person group nearby, consider starting one.)
- Use Special Interest Groups that offer more focused service for fathers, siblings, parents of children who passed by suicide or substance abuse, and more.
- Contact one or more Caring Listeners who talk with you at no charge. These volunteers are not trained therapists; they have been through 'the dark night of the soul' and will share worked for them, recommended resources, and more.
- Benefit from my FREE articles, radio shows, newsletters, books, audio programs, and documentary film at SoulProof.com/Articles / Radio Shows / Shop)
- Watch Affiliate Leader / Caring Listen Interviews, read the Shining Light Parents Speak book, and benefit from other HPH Shining Light Resources
- Optimally heal, live, and help via the Greater Reality Healing, Living & Helping articles, videos, and meetings (article #131). This program does NOT replace HPH; however, it does help you with other types of big changes and challenges that appear to be losses.
- Lean on others and ask for help when you need it. Later, when you are doing better, you can help others by sharing your greatest gifts and following your inner callings.

Q: Thank you for talking about 'the big picture of life' for parents and their children who have passed on. We would love to know that all this with our son makes sense on some level. But are humans really supposed to know this? Does 'spiritual amnesia' exist for good reasons so we learn our earthly lessons better?
A: Thank you for these super important questions. At the HPH conference this summer, I'll talk about potential meta-meanings behind apparent tragedies such as the bodily death of a child. I say 'potential meta-meanings' because parents and children in HPH can choose to find, benefit from, and share the silver linings. I say 'apparent tragedies' because an expanded perspective shows that this brief earthly experience is a totally safe, meaningful, and magnificent adventure amidst forever. Your son didn't really die (just his earth-suit did) and you two are eternal soulmates. What's more, you and he likely volunteered to experience this scenario to learn, grow, serve, and love at higher levels.
To address your two questions specifically . . .
- 'Are humans really supposed to know this?' The answer to that question depends on who you ask, doesn't it? Those with fear-based fundamentalist may think it's a sin (they have a long list) to think for yourself and learn more about life. However, people with more heart and love-based beliefs know it's their nature to learn more, grow, and thus shine more brightly. The G.O.D. I walk with each day IS peace, joy, love, wisdom, and much more. The Creator and Sustainer of All Life wants us all to feel and be that way as much as possible.
We each have a dual consciousness. First, your brain-based consciousness that thinks your son really died, you can lose each other, and other delusions that create needless fears. The second is your transcendent source of consciousness – your inner knowing from your soul, spiritual support team, and The Light. This part of your mind already knows the big picture of life. The question is whether YOU (your higher self or consciousness) knows 'The Great News' so deeply that your brain can release fear and be on a similar wavelength.
- Does 'spiritual amnesia' exist for good reasons so we learn our earthly lessons better?
Some people think that remembering more about how life is set up would make it too easy for us during this earthly experience. I know many people who enjoy a greater view of reality and they still have their challenges. I'm not concerned about negating earthly lessons. Your question also reflects old Puritan-ethic beliefs that life on earth should be difficult and full of suffering. For reasons discussed above, I hope you realize this isn't at all the case.
I recently wrote article #142 Must We Forget ‘The Big Picture of Life’ When Coming to Earth? that more thoroughly discusses your questions and others.
