It will always be a help to contemplate these pictures whenever you havesomeone in mind who is dead, no matter how long ago this person has died.Related to the tricky issue of time is the notion of the astral world as timeless,or at least with another way of measuring “ time” than ours.The way ‘time’ is translated in the astral after-death states may be moreconnected to the degree of meditative training of the deceased.This means that the individual stages in the bardo can last anything from thetime it takes to snap your fingers, to a sun-year.• From the point of view of the (living) person contemplating the pictures- we recommend anything from 5 minutes per picture to one hour perpicture!• Contemplate the pictures regularly, for example once a week, or atleast once a month.• Contemplate all the pictures every time.When you have meditated regularly on all the pictures, you can consider twoways of continuing:• Continue using equally long time to contemplate each picture until youknow them all well, and then consider honestly which one of thepictures you have troubles with (which may likely be the one you don’tlike), and use more time on that.• Always meditate on all the pictures!• After having contemplated these pictures - or in whatever other wayyou may have been given support and healing to the dead - there mayfor some of you be a feeling that some of these discarnate beings stilllinger around. This is NOT dangerous or a problem as such, but if youfeel you want consciously to be free of them, just shift your “frequency”and think of something pleasant.First and foremost – no tool helps unless it is usedUsed with sincerity and reverence.If a large group of people is killed by natural disasters, disease,epidemics, by terrorism, wars, or by accidents – an event that is broughtto your knowledge via the news media, you do not have to feelpowerless or disheartened, because it IS possible to reach out and help.You can help others through the final transition, being it friends,relatives, clients, or someone you have never met in your life.“Do not ask for whom the bells tolls, it tolls for me!”John Dunne, (seventeenth-century English poet and clergyman) says thatbecause we are all part of mankind, any person’s death is a loss to all of us:“Any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; andtherefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee”.http://www.bartleby.com/59/6/forwhomthebe.html© 2005 Starbridge Centre/Ulla and Erik SandersenAll rights reserved6
