Afterlife Phil G shares his mailbag. Lisa from the UK, asks: I lost my father, I sense him near, but my thoughts are so mixed up I can’t actually “connect” with him…”
“In answer, can I say that belief in being able to connect with the afterlife doesn’t always translate to being able to connect clearly, especially if it’s someone very close to you – the problem is how to verify it when you already know so much.”
I had the same problem and it’s why I developed my simple technique. (Accidentally, as visitors to my website on life after death). Firstly, if you sense him around, then he’s with you. I know some would say that’s being nave, but it’s true and you can prove it yourself.
I assume you’re past the stage of believing in being able to contact the afterlife so I’ll go to knowing the difference between your own words and thoughts, and those of someone who’s ‘talking’ to you from ‘the other side’. The first step, even if you’re aware of a connection, is to relax. Like a very deep meditation.
On my web site on life after death, I share many tools to help, most of them free, including instructions, a YouTube video, and a list of books and things to help. But the starting point is to be relaxed. I find it hard to get clear information or feelings if I am busy, rushed, or thinking about everything else, so the first step is to be really relaxed, to the point of not thinking about anything else. Any meditation will do, including my “Contact Family in the Afterlife yourself” audio guide.
In order to get clear messages or feelings is to discern the difference between the thoughts in your head, and the INCOMING thoughts. One key is to not ask for specific ’signs’, but to accept whatever comes through. Maybe you won’t get what you’re expecting, but gradually you will get things clearly, becoming easier the more you try.
The next problem of getting clear information or feelings is to separate your thoughts from those you are receiving outside of you. But I find if you’re relaxed, not trying to get any specific thoughts, and accept whatever comes through, it’s easier. You may not get what you want right now, but you’ll get things, and it gets easier.
Lastly, you want to know the experience is real, and not your own thoughts, and I teach to ask for something you don’t know, or something you’re forgotten. Something you don’t know can be anything. In my wife’s case, the final ‘proof’ that made her realise I wasn’t making up that her father was ‘coming through’ was when I asked if she had knocked a round cylinder containing a bunch of pens off her desk today? Something I couldn’t know, which was true! You will have those kind of experiences.
In my book ‘Soul Matters – you can talk with those you miss’ I talk about my Nanna coming through one evening. (She passed away when I was about 7) She showed me a scone on a plate. I had no idea what this meant, until I heard her voice say “don’t you remember the scones?” – then I remembered. I had asked my mum over and over to make scones like my Nanna (The British make scones much better than Aussies do!) I had completely forgotten that.
So ask, and trust the answer, even if what you get does not make sense – and over the next few hours or days it will, and it will verify your connection. In your case, I understand you already sense him near, and don’t really need to know how to connect clearly with him, but I’ve shared these things because I feel if you do these small simple steps, you’ll go from sensing he’s with you to getting clear messages and being able to verify it’s real.
I hope this helps you gain clarification. If you follow those steps, and talk a look at those points on the website (philg.net.au) I’m sure you’ll get the response you need to clarify and verify contact with your father in the Afterlife.
Take care – Phil G
