Great heart, great soul (Hen Straver)
Joost passed away like he has lived.
First I mention his great heart
When somebody has passed away, it takes about an hour to withdraw ones aura. The aura is composed of the 3 spiritual bodies of the soul. Each of the spirit bodies takes 15 to 20 minutes ‘to be brought home’…
in the heart point, here in the middle of the chest.
That’s why we don’t touch a body after death for an hour;
so we did with Joost.
When this had happened there was something strange. Joost’s heart itself did not close but after 7-8 minutes. I had never seen this before. While his heart was closing so slowly, I began to understand the reason: Joost has a great heart. So he did need all that time to close his great heart.
Joost’s great heart is a comfort (troost) to us.
Joost’s surrender
A very difficult part of the last night with Joost was talking about surrendering his body (zijn lichaam over te geven). It was so difficult because Joost had fought like a lion to cure his body, until he had fallen in coma, Monday morning.
Also for me it was heartbreaking because I had supported him in it for 10 months. Like I often said, joking to him: Joost, we do our utmost, and beyond the utmost the utmost.
So I asked Joost being in coma: Joost can you give up your body by
free will?
In the last night of his life in his body we had talked about the failure of the medicine he had got, sutent; his brain damage, perhaps he had also had a heart infarct.
He understood quite clear that he could only continue his life in this body, his beloved body, like a plant, on a vegetative level.
And I added: Joost you will need all your strength to pass away in a good way (om op een goede manier over te gaan).
His eyes showed tears like when he, Jennifer and I had seen us the afternoon before. Then he got the expression of an Egyptian Lion king, while Jennifer looked tender, fine and frele, as a beautiful young Egyptian woman, well-known from pictures: old connections of the soul.
A Lion king connects nature and spirit, by soul.
Such a soul is a Great Soul.
It took some time in which he struggled with himself. I tried to help him with: Joost I know this is the most difficult choice in your life. This is your Calvary Mountain. You reached the top. There is no way back.
Tears filled his eyes.
When I came back after a break there was another Joost. He had conquered (overwonnen) his Lion, while Jennifer was sleeping beside him.
The significance of Joost’s surrendering and offering by free will his young life is that he fully completed his life (zijn leven volledig voltooide), although it was broken at the half. Why?
Because his free surrender gave him a gift, like we we’ll see, he could have required in a whole life of for example 73 years.
His circle of life was round.
We can be grateful that he could harvest this completion (deze voltooiing kon oogsten).
That Joost showed his spiritual clearness and strong willpower at the supreme moment of his life is also a comfort for us.
Joost’s dimension of light.
Some minutes after Joost’s soul had passed away, he showed us his sphere of light. I’ve seen much light in my life, but seldom had I seen such a brilliance of light. Joost’s home in the spheres is a home, in a high dimension of light.
And moreover: Joost showed us what he had required (verworven) in the time of his wonderful inner growth: At the same time he was at home in his light sphere and with us! His soul is beyond the dimension of time and place. Joost’s soul can be at 2 places at the same time, we call that bilocation (bilocatie). That is what he required in this life on earth. So that he can support Jennifer in her life and will be there when Katy will marry and Sam will finish his study… like Joost hoped and wished.
It is a comfort for us that Joost reached this high spiritual level.
May I invite you to be silent for some moments?
to listen with the stillness of your heart
to Joost’s Great Heart.
Thank you Joost, for all we experienced and shared.
