Countless individuals are becoming increasingly unhappy with their existence leading them on the path to suicide.
Yet, this displeasure of their reality is not something that sprung up out of nowhere. It is a gradual erosion of the inner spirit that originates in our own discontentment and unwillingness to make amends with the choices we have made throughout life.
With any self-analysis it is important to use our insight to travel through what we perceive to be time. To view our world both as it was in our infancy to where we reside today. Life as we know it is universally in a flux of continuous change. Yet, how have we as individuals changed and what choices have we made to stimulate the invention of whom we have become?
Have you allowed yourself to become disconnected from whom you are as a soul?
Have you become displaced by the mind to treat itself in a way that is both cruel and strange?
Are you the adventurer who has lost their way?
Was there once a time where happiness radiated warmth within you? If so, how does one go from joy into pain? If joy was once attained, can it not be once again renewed?
Perhaps the first step is identifying both that which brings you pain and that which summons within you a sense of joy.
By allowing yourself to see in both directions, you cannot help but witness the choices having been made in between.
The world we live in has increasingly become farther and farther detached from our natural way of being. Sunrays and moonbeams replaced with artificial light. We are living less and less from our innate intelligence and more and more in automatic simulation from synthetic stimuli. But, why?
Why is it that we have allowed ourselves to slip into a culture that negates a more natural way of life? Have we forgotten who we are or even what we once were like?
As our technology advances, we see with it the rise of adolescents committing suicide. It is as if the more artificial we become, the quicker we are pulling the plug on our children’s own source of innocence and light.
Yet, it is not just our youth that has been disturbed by a plague of amassed suicides, it is further becoming a worldwide concern affecting people of all ages, people from all walks of life.
In order to resolve an issue, we must first come to explore where the issue assimilated both in our own bodies and within our own minds.
When we look at a large tree, we can see its branches covered with thousands of tiny green leaves that take in energy from the sun’s light. Yet, we are only looking at a partial tree; the other half resides in the dark beneath the soil absorbing moister and nutrients through communicating with the more subtle powers of microscopic might.
By tending the inner garden of our mind, we are able to go to the root of the issue to once and for all resolve our pain and live a wholesome life.
Many may be surprised to find that there are four different variations of suicide. Even more surprising is the amount of people who are on the path of self-destruction without even knowing that they are slowly in the process of prematurely aging or ending their lives.

The Aftermath
Our culture’s most common perspective on suicide is that of ones making the choice to end their physical life. But, what accurately occurs for those individuals after death is often quite misunderstood.
We live on this planet in what is called the 3rd dimension. Our earthly lives can be equated to that of a school where our experiences act as opportunities to stimulate growth and learning.
When a soul incarnates into a physical human body, it experiences time differently. Between our own emotions, thoughts, and imagination we are continuously in the process of manufacturing our very own existence.
Here on earth, the creation of a combined thought or feeling manifesting into physical reality moves first through a process we perceive as time. In this process, this time delay allows us to more easily integrate and learn from our own creations.
Without this time delay most would begin manifesting their fears instantaneously. The result would be the creation of their own encapsulated reality of inner terror, further causing greater turmoil and trauma in the mind.
When one begins to understand that conscious and unconscious thought energy creates reality, they can more deliberately decide what reality they will choose to create. This interval period better allows for ones to make changes in the now moment so as to alter the fate of their future in a way that is more aligned with their heart.
If one applies wisdom, they can learn from the reflections of what they have been currently creating and like a ship out at sea, they can use that wisdom to course correct.
This provides an opportunity for healing unconscious wounds that act as a lens filter in how we perceive, experience and create life. Once one heals the wound, it changes how they perceive and understand their reality.
This is the alchemical process that turns fear into love and pain into joy.
When one dies, the only thing they lose is access to their physical body. Everything else remains. When one ends their life prematurely, they cross over still carrying around all of their pain. Many end up in an astral realm that, unlike our earth as we perceive it, has much less of a delay in time. In an instant, they would begin drawing to them a reality that matches and reflects back to them the fear and pain they carry inside.
Oftentimes, one who commits suicide is choosing to cross over into rapidly establishing and getting lost in their own personal maze of hell.
With everything manifesting so quickly, many do not even realize that they are even dead.
Ones may think suicide is the end, it is not.
It is, more-so, a greater magnification of what they were experiencing before they took their own life.
Even in these instances, assistance is always being offered by our guides. The only difficultly is that often those who committed suicide have trouble seeing or accepting a helping hand to pull them out of their labyrinth of confusion.
Ones who commit suicide can lose touch with themselves for a very long time. If you are one who is reading this and contemplating suicide, I can assure you that making the choice to end your own life is like choosing to experience your worst nightmares played out on a broken record player.
Certainly, if you want the pain to end, choosing to end your life would not be a wise choice.
Pain is simply an indicator of that which is not yet healed. Suicide does not end the pain; you take it with you wherever you go.
One who commits suicide is signing up for a round trip ticket to incarnate and experience another life the same if not similar to their last life. This new life becomes an opportunity to choose to make more wholesome choices.
If you would like to understand the aftermath of what is left in the wake of choosing suicide, I would recommend doing research or speaking to individuals who have had loved ones choose to end their own life.
The act of suicide is a very selfish act; a choice that forms lasting ripples of sadness and grief.
There are times loved ones and family members will begin taking on the energy of despair from the loss of their nearly deceased friend, and in turn, they themselves may get lost in the maze of pain, resulting in the ripple of them also taking their own life.
Suicide is not just harmful towards yourself but damaging towards a multitude of people who once knew and loved you dearly.
To cause harm to another, is to harm yourself. To harm yourself, is to cause harm to another.
Truly, there is no separation, for in this world we are all connected in a web of invisible strings, like a symphony of sound, our expressions produce music not always heard by our ears, but rather felt and received as the reverberating frequencies of an inner feeling.
The Solution
- Getting assistance
- Healing
- Reinventing yourself
- Discovering your abilities
- Living your purpose
If you are one who is participating in any of these forms of suicide, I suggest you seek assistance from a counselor or others who can support you on your journey of healing.
Everything can be healed, but such a healing will only come solely from within yourself.
The prolonging of misery is an illusion of the mind, for the power of the mind can create for itself either pain or joy. The important realization is the personal responsibility of choice. When one is able to raise their consciousness above the chains of negative self-deprecating belief systems, they begin to get a renewed sense of joy and freedom.
Take a moment to settle your thoughts and see the earth as it truly is; not the world mind with all its limitations, but the natural flow of innate intelligence. We can witness wind blowing through the trees, but many do not see what wind actually is. How can an invisible movement exist without question or explanation? The answer is in recognizing everything existing as consciousness and fields or waves of energy.
Anyone has the ability to reinvent themselves in endless ways to cleanse out the old and invite an invigorating new energy of passion in.
If you have brought yourself to the point of contemplating suicide, you have nothing to lose by letting go of the old and starting a new life.
Pick up an instrument and dedicate your life to learning how to play like a master so as to serenade yourself with delight.
Or, become a farmer and enjoy the freedom of self-sufficiency and the rewards of living connected with the natural rhythms of a simpler life.
Learn to cook and please your pallet with new flavors that taste so good they send shivers down your spine.
Be creative. Do something, anything that inspires you; anything other than taking your life.
Decide what your new life will be without needing to leave your physical body behind. Perhaps you’ll wake up one day with a great appreciation towards yourself for deciding not to give in to the thoughts of suicide.
Discover that which feeds and nurtures your soul. You chose to be here for a reason. Yes, the world we live in is messed up, but it is a world that is not impermeable to a new generation creating change.
Do not allow its toxicity to prevent you from truly living. The greatest gift you can give this world is your own expression of joy.
It is darkest before the dawn. Work on your healing now and you will reap the benefits of discovering an adventure called life.
