Yale University psychiatrist Bernard Bateman studies the news that the deceased from the other world send to their loved ones - through the most common, and sometimes mystical phenomena.
News from the Beyond: The Tales of Jennifer Hill
In November 1994. a woman named Jennifer Hill died of a grandfather. After his funeral, Jennifer accompanied her widowed grandmother home. Near the house, they saw a lonely blossoming gardenia, and the granddaughter thought that the time for its flowering was very inappropriate. Grandmother burst into tears at the sight of this plant: gardenia was her favorite flower and a symbol of a forty-year marriage. The woman considered her appearance a message from her husband who had departed to another world.
In January 2005. Hill again faced a surprising coincidence. It was the annual day of mourning for Jennifer's deceased daughter: the woman was awakened by a phone call, and although the receiver was silent, she clearly felt the presence of her daughter on the call. On this very day, her sister had a child - a sweet and healthy girl, very similar to Jennifer's daughter …
After that, the woman decided to conduct her own investigation and spoke with many people who have recently experienced the loss of their loved ones. As a result, Hill concluded that such "coincidences" are perceived by the living as signals from the other world that help them cope with the severity of loss. It is interesting, however, that almost all of these stories are amazing, some are simply mystical, and it is extremely difficult to attribute all of this to chance.
Promotional video:
… In one terrible car accident 49 children died, and when the names of the victims were listed during their funeral, a flock of birds flew over the heads of the grieving relatives, recorded by the photographer. The picture showed 49 (!) Birds - exactly as many as there were dead guys. Relatives said that this fact became a kind of consolation for them: it seemed that children's souls flew in to say goodbye to those who loved them, in the form of these birds …
Mystical news from the other world
And this is a story about a man who lived near a lake and for thirty years fed the ducks swimming there. Before his death, being already sick and not getting out of bed, he asked his wife to do it instead of him.
When the man died and the funeral procession moved past the lake, she was forced to stop. A solemn procession of ducks lined up in rows blocked the road. It was completely incomprehensible how the birds managed to overcome the high fence surrounding the lake, since the gate was locked. Moreover, for several decades, the ducks did not leave their territory at all, and the fence turned out to be intact. It is clear that there is no need to talk about any accidental coincidence here. The spouse of the deceased took the procession of birds as their desire to express their respect to the deceased. She let the ducks near the coffin, and they, like people, approached and bowed to their former breadwinner.
The next incident happened to a woman named Patricia. After the death of her husband Jim, 61-year-old Patricia sold the house in which the couple were happy for so long and where their son Jacob grew up. When Patricia came to the house she had already sold for the last time to say goodbye to him, a bird flew through the open doors and flew straight into Jacob's room.
After Patricia wrote on the social network: I am convinced that this was the soul of Jim, who felt especially happy in the children's room. Together with his son, he played on the floor or read books to the baby.
According to Bernard Bateman, Patricia correctly interpreted the appearance of the winged visitor. By the way, when the woman ran into her son's room, there was no bird in it, although the windows were tightly closed. This incident still helps Patricia to feel that her husband is somewhere nearby, and this gives her strength. The woman continues to observe the behavior of birds at various moments of her life, and her house is decorated with their images …
Such coincidences-signs, says Dr. Wiedett Todaro-Franceschi from the University of New York, allow people to get in touch with the subtle world of the afterlife and understand that their deceased loved ones did not disappear without a trace, they are here, nearby, and can even give news about themselves. Thanks to this, separation no longer seems eternal and life without loved ones does not lose all meaning. The deceased probably understand this well and therefore send us their signals: do not be sad, be happy, we will definitely meet with you!..
