 2009 Training in Brazil. Spiritual Care for the Dying 
Brazil    2010   (date and location open)  


 


What is the secret of life?
The secret of life is death.
When you love, what is the secret of love? Death.
When you meditate, what is the secret of meditation? Death.
Whatever happens that is beautiful and intense, happens through death.
Whenever you move deep into anything, life will be at the periphery, and death will be
at the center.           
                         


Conscious Living - Conscious Dying




Veetman & Sukhi Masshoefer







We are all touched by death and will experience some time
or other the deeply transforming process that death brings.

This training seminar shows us ways to meet this experience with an expanded consciousness and to grow through it in our life now.

The more we are caught in our unconscious fear of death and dying, the less our life can be really fulfilled, because fear prevents us from the fullness of life.We will be more or less afraid of all significant and ecstatic experiences: Love, meditation, sexuality, intimacy, creative expression and authenticity, even if we are longing for it to be in our life.

Our unconscious fear of death and letting go keeps us in fear of uncertainty and change, which are a natural part of life. Our fear of death is deeply repressed and usually unconscious as long as we feel helpless about it.
Usually it only surfaces when we are directly confronted with its immensity: when a beloved dies, or when we ourselves are challenged with illness, old age, a life threatening situation or a deep crisis, all situations that make us aware of impermanence and the insecurity of life on the physical plane, because nobody is an exception from this.
The only answer is the recognition of our immortal consciousness, our true nature,  " that which never dies".

Our fear shows in our fear of uncertainty or of surrender, in fear of the challenges of life, perhaps in our inability for love and intimacy, in our fear of pain or loneliness, of deep meditation, in avoidance of silence and solitude, in clinging to people and old habits, or in our fear of letting go of our defensive ego-personality which keeps us living in fear and the illusion of separation.

When we recognize that  the roots of all our fears are the fears of the unknown, and that we project all our fears of life onto the unknown of death, a conscious understanding of death and dying, and the willingness to learn to let go, are the answer to all our fears and our longing for real love and spiritual fulfillment.

Looking at death from the point of view of what it teaches us about life
will transform the quality and vision of our life.

This process is valuable for all who want to explore the phenomenon of death, out of personal or professional concerns, as well as for those who want to find the inner motivation for authentic living and new priorities their life.We learn to open for the mystery and the possible gift that death can bring to our life: Nothing can make the urgency for love, compassion and meditation more clear than the fact that we are not here forever.

An authentic awakening is possible only when we accept and understand our physical mortality and realize our eternal consciousness.
The group-process will work on these issues:

Transforming fear into love ( because fear is destructive to our consciousness and our love, and all fears are rooted in the fear of death, of the unknown, of letting go).

Meditation as preparation for a conscious loving death , as an experience of our immortal being, and as source of our life energy and joy.

Helping ourselves and others in situations of grief, loss, crisis and change.
Recognizing and healing the incompleteness of our life.
Letting go with love and compassion; living with strength and vulnerability
Compassion and forgiveness: opening into our heart-center and its capacities for healing.
Understanding death as a natural transition creates courage to live life consciously and authentically.Living with uncertainty, change and impermanence
Looking at our fears of pain,aloneness,loss,and letting go into the unknown.

Participants will experience and learn various methods which not only prepare for a conscious and fearless death, but also for all the „small deaths" we have to face in our life: in letting go of attachments and desires,in loss and grief,in changes,aging, sickness, aloneness,impermanence,as well as in the challenges of deep meditation, authentic love and trust,without which our life remains empty and meaningless.
