Age periods of a person's life and his mental development. Da Lav-Ananda: The Seven Stages of Life! (for those who like to classify everything)

06.05.2019

According to the cosmogonic concept set forth in the Vedic canons, the material world was created by God as the world of virtual reality. It consists of 33 thousand universal layers, packed one into another, and makes up one fourth of the spiritual universe, but not in a geometric or temporal sense, but in terms of its manifestations. The modern hypothesis of the parallelism of the worlds is very close to this concept. In the material universe there is only the past and the future, in the spiritual world there is only the present. The mind of modern man is not able to accommodate this amazing idea.

Only a fool thinks he is independent.Only a fool feels that he is irreplaceable.

In the spiritual world, each of us is connected with God by loving rasas (relationships). We strive to get closer to the Almighty, to achieve absolute perfection, but this is impossible in principle, since only God is ideal. Therefore, a virtual reality world filled with all kinds of illusions was created so that we can play any role, up to the position of the Lord, if we so desire.

Thus, one day we plunged into this illusory energy in order to enjoy our independence and to feel what the Supreme is experiencing by controlling other living beings.

In one of the famous Vedic canons, Srimad Bhagavatam, the material world is compared to a dense forest. When the jiva (living entity) enters it, it becomes completely entangled in its endless paths. It must be said that a living being has not only material, but also spiritual feelings, however, in the world of virtual reality, spiritual feelings are under cover, like the sky under thick clouds, and therefore a person cannot directly perceive God. Tired of these wanderings, experiencing constant suffering and dissatisfaction due to being cut off from the Lord, we fall into despair, and then the Almighty, always residing in our hearts, sends us a spiritual mentor or reveals knowledge through canonical literature. It is from this moment that our return home, back to Godhead, begins.

The spiritual evolution of a living being (jiva) in the material world is a very long process. According to the Vedic tradition, there are 8 million 400 thousand levels of consciousness, each of which is one coil of a large spiral of evolution, one step on the path to God. Only a part of these coils refers to the biological form of life (a certain mode of existence of purine and pyramidine bases). The rest have more subtle structures of material energy. In order to move to the next level of consciousness, it is necessary to work out a huge package of karmic tasks, go through many tests sent from above, and successfully pass exams. This is similar to the gradual washing away of dirty glass that does not let in the light of the Sun. It is impossible to accomplish this in one life - to take the fortress in one assault. It takes hard work and hard work. Therefore, it is also necessary to go through a small spiral of evolution, consisting of twelve stages, like studying at school. On each turn of this spiral, a person can incarnate from one to ten times, depending on the success of the tasks performed.

A person on each turn of the small spiral goes through four stages of birth and four stages of death.

Four stages of birth

After birth, a person goes through four stages of birth and four stages of death. They were described in the ancient tantras and puranas, and in the 20th century they were confirmed by numerous studies of psychologists. The issue of four stages of birth, or four perinatal matrices, on one of which the human consciousness is fixed during birth, was purposefully dealt with by Stanislav Grof. He actively used the regression method, plunging a person into a certain state in which he recalled his previous incarnations in the smallest details and details.

The Vedic shastras (canons) say that there are four types of suffering that are almost impossible to overcome in this world: birth, illness, old age and death. Oddly enough at first glance, the greatest of these sufferings is considered to be birth.

The path of a living being to the next incarnation begins with the death of his former body. At this moment, two outer shells of the soul are destroyed - anna-maya-kosha (physical or anatomical) and ipran-maya-kosha (etheric or energy-informational).

Further, a living being - jiva - in a "subtle" body, consisting of ahankara (false ego), buddhi (intellect), manas (mind) and indriyas (senses), passes through the cosmic corridor and, in accordance with its innermost desires and the most mature karmic program (prarabdha-karma) receives a new birth on a certain planet, in the corresponding country, city and family.

The script with which we come into this world is laid much earlier than the next birth. The choice of parents by a child is not at all accidental, and the moments of conception and birth are predetermined to a certain extent. The inner cause of our birth lies only in ourselves, and parents are given only to those who can the best way ensure our development and help us to fulfill the given program.

If a man and a woman fall in love with each other, then sooner or later they will create a single energy-informational field - a family egregor - a world like an amazing garden filled with beautiful plants of love. No friends, no relatives, no teachers should be admitted here; only children have this right.

When a man and a woman have reached full mutual understanding, have passed all the tests and are confident in their love, they can begin preparations for conceiving a child. Ayurveda recommends that this period last at least nine months.

At this time, future parents need:

cleanse your body of exotoxins and cellular "slags" (it is best to take "soft" Ayurvedic preparations like triphala-guggul);
put in order the neuroendocrine, immune and reproductive systems;
take only clean food and water;
completely refrain from sexual relations (it is necessary to accumulate a sufficient amount of shakti energy);
do not take long baths in hot springs (hot water reduces the activity and viability of germ cells);
regularly use rasayanas (rejuvenating Ayurvedic elixirs like "chyawanprash");
devote more time to spiritual practices.

Two or three months before conception, a woman can feel a living being next to her, preparing to become her child. She gradually awakens her maternal instinct, in her dreams she sees babies and begins to treat children in a special way.

When the internal and external causes of birth are combined, the living being enters the sperm of the future father and at the moment of conception moves into the womb of the mother, losing consciousness and the ability to perceive the world around. In this state, called swapna, or dreamless sleep, the jiva will remain for about three months.

This stage is considered transitional. If at this time a woman has an abortion for one reason or another, the living being will again be in a state of expectation of the next incarnation and, most likely, will again and again try to enter the womb of her mother. But if it is constantly thrown out of there, then it will have the opportunity to be born in a different family egregore. True, for this, those who can provide him with appropriate upbringing and development must live on Earth - otherwise the jiva will have to wait in the subtle space of the Universe for as long as necessary. Sometimes it takes tens and even hundreds of years (for example, if someone has a unique development program that a strictly defined family can implement).

Therefore, from the point of view of the laws of the Universe, abortion is considered a more sinful act than murder, and a woman who has committed such an act consciously, in this or the next life, may lose the ability to have children. It may also happen that her offspring will die in the first years of their life or will be mentally and physically handicapped. Such a situation is not some kind of punishment of Fate, as some people think, but is given to develop a mother's instinct in a woman and teach her motherly love.

"Ocean Paradise"

Three months pass and the transition phase ends. The child’s consciousness turns on, and the first, longest stage of birth begins, which is called the “oceanic” (in the system of Stanislav Grof, it is called the “first perinatal matrix”). Despite the fact that this period, starting from the 12-13th week after conception, lasts about five to six months, that is, until the onset of labor pains, the individual, relative perception by a living being of its duration is equal to the entire subsequent life.

At this time, the embryo is most closely connected with its mother, not only through the umbilical cord, through which it receives oxygen and all the necessary nutrients, but also through psycho-emotional contact. The child feels as if in a "dissolved" state. Its existence at this stage is similar to the life of deep-sea fish, starfish or jellyfish. His ethereal body is harmoniously built into the mother's energy-informational matrix, and their "subtle" (psychic) bodies are merged into one. The channels of the nadis of mother and child are connected with each other, intertwined, form a single system.

Never again will mother and child be as close as they are now. Their mutual love seems to flow from one to another without encountering any obstacles. A woman at this time can realize a lot, discover, change in herself. The child makes her look for a connection with the whole world around her. As never before, she feels like a particle of the Universe and plunges into a downward energy-informational flow, so pregnancy for a woman is a truly mystical period in her life.

The child at this time also feels like a cell of the Universe, a particle of God, a drop of the boundless Ocean. He perceives the world through his mother, and everything that she does at this time will correspond to his energy-information matrix. He "scans" the surrounding space that his parents have created for him, as well as all the mother's thoughts and her emotional states. He plunges into the memories of his past incarnations, recorded on the matrices of the mind (manas), and like a sponge absorbs information about the outside world. Mother's love envelops and protects him.

Depending on the thoughts of the mother, her experiences, actions, lifestyle and the physical condition of her body, the life of a child can turn into a heavenly or hellish existence.

Tantric texts indicate that a child who is able to scan the mother's mental field sees her good thoughts in the form of angelic beings. When the mother is in a sublime and peaceful state, the child experiences bliss, reaching ecstasy. He seems to fall on a heavenly planet and bathe in the rays of Divine light. He feels his infinite unity with the creations of the Most High. He “feeds” on this Divine light, and his development goes faster and more harmoniously.

When the mother's inner world is out of balance, and she experiences anger, irritation, envy, hatred, depression or fear, the views of the heavenly planets are replaced by pictures of destruction, natural disasters, hellish worlds filled with evil and insidious creatures devouring everyone and everything. Due to the fact that the mind of the mother is saturated with negative and destructive stereotypes, the child is faced with terrible demons, vampires, monsters, the likes of which can only be seen in horror films or computer games.

Ayurvedic advice for pregnant women. During pregnancy, a woman is very vulnerable to the negative impact of other people and various bhoots (spirits) that can be fueled by her energy. It becomes more vulnerable to various diseases, because during this period there is a programmed violation of homeostasis (balance of the internal environment of the body). The synthesis of cholesterol increases, since it is necessary for the construction of cell membranes. The level of glucose, which is the main energy substrate for maintaining the cells of not only the mother, but also the fetus, increases. The activity of cellular and humoral immunity (B-lymphocytes, T-killers, ECC, complement) decreases, because the fetus is perceived by the mother's body as a foreign body. Changes in the activity of many hormones and enzymes. The likelihood of developing so-called "ontogenetic" diseases after the end of pregnancy increases (this is possible if the woman's tuning fork system of the body - the energy-information matrix) is disturbed.

Therefore, Ayurveda recommends that women during pregnancy be especially careful in behavior, nutrition, and taking medications. Most of the time it is desirable to be in a clean and quiet place. If possible, one should not leave the house in the evenings (when harmful bhoots become more active), stay alone at night, visit cemeteries, crematoria, slaughterhouses, gambling houses and large crowds of people, read or watch films related to violence and murder. All this can negatively affect the psyche of not only the mother, but also the child. Do not stay near sources of high-frequency radiation (computers, TVs, mobile phones, microwave ovens and high-voltage transmission lines).

During pregnancy, it is best to eat only freshly prepared meals and not leave them even for the evening. It is advisable to eat at the same time four times a day in small quantities (no more than one to two glasses of solid food). Preference should be given to fresh cheese (“Adyghe”), natural (not reconstituted) milk and fresh (not peroxidized) biokefirs, since they are a source of not only complete protein, but also easily digestible calcium. You can supplement dairy products with soy milk (or shakes) and tofu. With intolerance to dairy products, dietary supplements containing a chelated (natural, or easily digestible) form of calcium should be included in the diet. Vegetables, herbs, fruits and berries, if possible, it is better to use those that do not contain preservatives and are grown without chemical fertilizers. It is recommended to use potatoes less often (especially the old crop), as it contributes to the accumulation of pathological mucus in the body; beetroot, as it adsorbs environmental toxins; radish and white cabbage, causing increased peristalsis of the large intestine. Of the legumes, you can only eat mung dal (mung), chickpeas, green beans, asparagus and fresh or frozen peas. It is not forbidden to include wild and brown rice, buckwheat, germinated wheat, oatmeal and barley in your diet quite often. You can cook milk porridge (add milk 5-10 minutes before the end of cooking). It is undesirable to use semolina and corn grits, products made from corn and refined wheat flour, as they contribute to the development of hyperinsulinemia, and this can subsequently lead to the development of obesity. For the same reason, sugar should be replaced with fructose. It is necessary to include seafood in your diet more often, especially seaweed, since the child's body needs more iodine and selenium during this period. It is best to cook with olive and ghee (the first should be 70% of the diet, the second - 30%), but margarine should not be used. Food can be baked, stewed or boiled; light frying is permissible only in ghee. Of the nuts, pine nuts are best suited, which are an excellent source of easily digestible magnesium. Peanuts and pistachios should not be consumed as they may contain aflatoxin, which can damage liver cells. You should also exclude the meat of cows, pigs, goats, sheep and rabbits from your diet. Nitrosamines (preservatives and dyes for red meat, sausages and offal), indole and skatole, which are formed in the intestines when eating meat, as well as the “fear hormone” that is released in the body of slaughtered animals (especially rabbits and cows), can cause great harm to a child.

If a mother during pregnancy consumes poor-quality food, alcohol, coffee, and also smokes, is in an unclean place or is sick and is forced to take various pharmacological preparations, then the fetus feels pain, suffocation, a feeling of pressure, nausea, the taste of iodine, blood or even rotten meat. . Toxic pollution of the "ocean" in which the child resides is fraught with severe suffering for him, if not a real catastrophe.

When a pregnant woman has such an opportunity, it is better for her to leave the city before giving birth and live in a clean, secluded place, on the coast of the sea, lake, river, or in a picturesque mountain valley. In the room where she spends most of her time, there should be a calm atmosphere, dim side or bottom lighting. It is very favorable to listen to psycho-relaxing music, ragas and mantras. It is very important that the whole situation in the room does not even have a hint of aggressiveness; the best interior will be wallpaper in pastel colors, as well as paintings and images that create a feeling of peace and tranquility. It is preferable for a woman not to remain alone, but to be close to her husband, who surrounds her with love and care, protecting, softening any negative experiences and situations that can cause numerous diseases and psychological problems in the child in the future.

Starting from the third month of pregnancy, a woman can enter into mental contact with her child, talk to him, read spiritual books to him and give appropriate instructions. To do this, it is not necessary to pronounce any words. It is enough to imagine this or that image or think about something. The child at this stage perceives any thought or feeling of the mother in the form of very real characters, the heroes of his play. At the first stage of birth, the scenario of the entire subsequent life of a given person is played out, i.e. prarabdha-karma (the program with which a living being comes to Earth in the process of life can be adjusted or even largely changed).

The child's consciousness is usually fixed on one of the four perinatal matrices, which is associated with the main vector of his karmic program. This is not a matter of chance, but of choice.

If the fixation of consciousness occurs at the first stage of a person’s birth, in later life he will most likely become open to the outside world, it will be very easy for him to feel like a cell of the Universe, realize his deep connection with nature and understand why people behave one way or another. Distinguished by pronounced empathy (the ability to empathize), he will be able to easily come into contact with animals (and maybe even understand the language of mammals, birds and plants). He will be characterized by softness of disposition and flexibility of perception. It will not be difficult for him to enter various meditative states. For all that, he will show some infantilism and a tendency to be under the influence of his parents for a long time, especially his mother. He will mature more slowly than his peers, and may even remain a “big kid” for life. Most likely, he will not want to take responsibility for any affairs or other people, and self-doubt will prevent him from making independent decisions. Such people can be good performers, but not leaders.

The first stage of birth, which may have seemed infinitely long to the child, will end with the onset of labor pains.

"Exile from Paradise"

The second stage (or the second perinatal matrix) is called "apocalypse", "expulsion from paradise". At this time, uterine contractions occur, but the birth gate (cervix) remains closed. For a child, this is a real catastrophe, a disaster comparable to the onset of death. He feels that every contraction of the uterus compresses the arteries and prevents the flow of blood between him and the mother, that the supply of oxygen and those nutrients that ensure his life is stopped. He is suffocating, he is seized with horror and feels that he is immersed in an ominous atmosphere filled with various dangers. Everything that happens around resembles devastating natural disasters - terrible earthquakes, epidemics or the death of the Universe. The child may have a vision of a giant whirlpool, which ruthlessly pulls him into the very center. It may seem to him that the earth has opened up and is absorbing an involuntary traveler, who is awaited by the labyrinths of a terrible underworld. He seems to fall into a trap and is absorbed by unknown external forces. The whole atmosphere resembles an apocalypse, destroying the calm intrauterine world and replacing oceanic freedom with agony. At this stage, a woman has pains that cause negative emotions that give rise to negative mental images in the form of bloodthirsty "demons" that gradually surround the child. He sees truly infernal pictures. Sometimes some of these scenes (not fictional, but taken from the subconscious, from visions that came at the second stage of birth) are reproduced by artists on their canvases.

The worst thing for a child is that he does not understand what is happening and does not know what to do. The familiar world is collapsing, and there is no way out. At the same time, time is very much “stretched”, and suffering seems endless. What is left for a child in such a situation? Just endure. And he endures, no matter how hard it is for him.

There is a parable about two twins. When the birth began, one of them began to rejoice: “Look, soon we will gain freedom and begin to live independently. A huge world with extraordinary possibilities will open before us. The other began to convince his brother of imminent death: “Look, we were connected with our mother by the umbilical cord all the time. Through it we received oxygen and food. As soon as we are born, it will be cut off, and you and I will die ... "

If a child's consciousness is fixed on the second perinatal matrix, then in life, most likely, he will be distinguished by extraordinary tolerance and asceticism. He will be able to endure material hardships quite easily, but he will always be characterized by pessimism and depressive states, and sometimes claustrophobia. Already from childhood, such people begin to realize the frailty of this world and understand that any efforts can be doomed to failure if the higher powers so desire. These manifestations can be corrected in childhood, but, as a rule, most of these people remain “hardened pessimists” in the future.

The second stage of birth ends when the birth gate opens.

"Light at the End of the Tunnel"

The third perinatal matrix is called the "breakthrough stage" or "light at the end of the tunnel." It is the shortest (lasts one or two hours, and sometimes only a few minutes), but at the same time it is extremely dynamic and rich in both positive and negative mental images.

At the biological level, it has some common features with the previous stage. The uterus continues to contract, and the baby still experiences choking and a feeling of constriction, as each contraction prevents its supply of oxygen. An additional source of sensation of suffocation may be the umbilical cord twisted around the neck or sandwiched between the baby's head and the mother's pelvic wall. There is much in common between this and the previous stages, but much is changed for the child. The birth gates finally open, and there is a "light at the end of the tunnel." The child continues to fight for survival, but now he has hope and faith that this struggle will come to an end. Imagine that you are moving in a dark gorge from which there is no way out, but, finally, you see a light in the distance, and then a narrow path along which you can go free. There is something symbolic in this, which reflects a certain spiritual light that helps the soul to get out of the material world. The head of the baby is squeezed into the opening of the pelvis, so narrow that even with uncomplicated childbirth, progress is slow and difficult.

Mother and child are still closely connected to each other on many levels, and there is no separation between the physical and the psychological. The child experiences a complete confusion of feelings. He is suffocating, experiencing fear, pain, helplessness and at the same time aggressiveness, and even some kind of sexual arousal. Feeling like a baby involved in a cruel struggle for survival, realizing that now his birth should take place, he simultaneously feels like his mother is releasing from the burden. Since certain erogenous zones of the genital tract are quite strongly involved in the process of childbirth, sexual sensations can also be included in the experiences of the mother. Some of the women who have had normal labor describe this stage as the most intense sexual experience of their lives. Once Freud, declaring that sexuality does not arise during the period of a person reaching puberty, but even in infancy, shocked the entire scientific world. However, this position is confirmed by both the ancient shastras and modern transpersonal psychology.

As soon as the frantic, on the verge of agony, struggle to get out of the birth canal begins to come to an end, tension and suffering reach their climax, followed by an explosion-like release - the baby finally breaks out of the birth opening to freedom and takes its first breath.

Fixation of the child's consciousness at this stage, as a rule, grants him an iron will and great inner strength. Such people are prone to struggle, to achieving goals, to risk and leadership. They will be distinguished by passionarity, fearlessness, temperament and emotionality, but along with this, perhaps cruelty, aggressiveness, increased sexuality, a tendency to violence and to condemn others.

"Liberation"

When a baby takes his first breath and his lungs open, the blood that supplied oxygen and nutrients to his body, cleared of endotoxins through maternal tissues, is now redirected to his own lungs, liver and kidneys. With the completion of this fundamental physical "act of separation", it begins to exist as an "independent anatomical unit". From the moment of cutting the umbilical cord and turning on the manifested karmic program (prarabdha-karma), the fourth stage of birth or the fourth perinatal matrix begins, which is called the stage of "liberation" or "symbolic unfolding of life" and can last from several days to several months.

After the birth of a child, an energy-information exchange continues between him and his mother, and its sudden termination can lead to an imbalance in the internal balance at the level of the etheric and physical bodies. That is why, in Vedic times, the mother, after the birth of a child, remained alone with him for one or two months. During this period, she, watching her child, could understand what his life would be like, because every day after his birth, after the first cry and cutting off the umbilical cord, symbolically corresponds to one subsequent year of life. For example, the third day after birth is equal to the third year of life, and the sixty-fifth day is equal to the sixty-fifth year. In ancient times, according to the gestures, postures or behavior of the child, parents determined the nature of his fate, possible future falls or ups, peaceful or stressful periods of life. Therefore, Ayurveda recommends that the mother keep a diary of observation, which will allow not only to better understand the "scenario" of the child's future life, but also to prepare him for possible periods of crisis and trials of fate.

You should not try to change your child's program. Too many parents create certain ideals. Often they are associated with their own failures in life or unfulfilled desires that they are trying to realize at all costs through their children. But the child who came to the family has his own unique nature, which he wants to reveal. He has his own dreams and his own goals. You can’t break it, make it grow faster or develop in one direction or another - you just need to surround it with love and care. A child resembles a small fragile sprout, which in time can turn into a mighty tree, or it can wither, break or deform. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the necessary conditions its development. And when the first flowers appear - do not scream and do not get angry because they are white and not purple, as you would like.

Observation of a child during the fourth perinatal matrix can show which years will be prosperous for him, and which ones will be difficult or critical. On some days the child will become capricious, on others, on the contrary, it will be very calm and silent. Sometimes parents can determine a serious illness or even the time of his death - as evidenced by an unusually strong tantrum or a child getting injured. It is known, for example, that Adolf Hitler was dropped when he was 56 days old, and he seriously injured his knee. From the point of view of karmic astrology, the knee is a symbol of supreme power, the highest position in society, and such an incident could symbolically mean loss of power or even death (which, in fact, happened in the 56th year of Hitler's life).

When something like this happens to a child, parents can understand in what year his life may end. This moment indicates the end of the fourth stage of birth.

The second and third stages of birth were a huge stress for the child, a shock, a catastrophic break with the previous existence, when he was harmoniously merged with the entire Universe. During the fourth stage, the disturbed balance is gradually restored, the little person begins to enjoy the world around him again and learns about it as much as he may not learn in his entire subsequent life. Therefore, not only during pregnancy, but also within two to three months after the birth of a child, it is extremely important for a mother to control not only her lifestyle, but also her thoughts and feelings.

At the fourth stage of birth, there is an intensive energy-information exchange between parents and the child. At this time, he is not yet able to distinguish between good and evil, "living" and "dead" water. He, like a sponge, absorbs all the ancestral karma, the “pious” and “sinful” inclinations of his parents, whose actions and thoughts, even when hidden, penetrate his consciousness. In the first three months of life, the child's immune system is not yet formed, and he is not at all protected from various kinds of energy-informational infections.

It is no coincidence that in ancient times, until the 72nd, and sometimes even until the 108th day after birth, it was not allowed to show the child even to close relatives and friends, as well as draw a horoscope chart on him or evaluate the signs and lines on his hands and feet. All this unwittingly, on a subconscious level, could lead to unwanted interference in the child's prarabdha-karma.

For two or three months from the moment of birth, the consciousness of the child, his mind and feelings are identified with the outside world. There is an idea that a newborn in the first weeks after birth does not see or hear anything, because sometimes parents turn on a bright light or turn on loud music, which, it would seem, does not bother the child at all. In fact, a newborn simply does not yet separate himself from his body and his psyche from the room in which he lives, from his bed, from his parents, from a dove cooing outside the window, from the rustle of leaves or the rays of the setting Sun. Only at the end of the fourth stage of birth, by the second or third month of life, does he begin to distinguish himself (at first, his body) from the surrounding world: “I am within the framework of this body, and everything outside it is the external world that I do not is an".

During this period, proper nutrition is very important. It is known that if a child is fed formula milk in the first three days after birth, he may develop various autoimmune diseases, and the mother's production of the hormone prolactin, which regulates lactation, can be disrupted. Some women may lose milk completely. But with mother's milk in the first three months, while its own immunity is being formed, the child receives physiological and psychological protection.

If the consciousness of a child is fixed at the fourth stage of birth, he can become a very freedom-loving person, an explorer, a traveler, the founder of new teachings or traditions. But it is possible that he will be haunted by a fear of heights and open spaces, self-doubt and fear of falling under someone's influence.

The first stage of death: the illusion of life

According to Ayurveda, a person begins to die 2-3 months after birth. After 2-3 months of a symbolic sweep of our life (when one day after birth is equal to the next year of life), we gradually begin to die. What we used to think of as life is seen as the first stage of death.

The stages of birth and death cyclically replace each other like day and night or the seasons. Subjectively, the 1st stage of birth and the 1st stage of death will seem almost the same in duration, although one will last 5-6 months, and the other - decades.

The second stage of death: exit from the physical body

When the time of our life is exhausted (from the point of view of Ayurveda, the moments of birth and death are considered quite fatal dates), the 2nd stage of death begins, which lasts nine days (hence the tradition to commemorate the deceased on the ninth day). It should, however, be remembered that under all the most favorable circumstances, it is practically impossible to postpone the time of death, since a certain duration of life is given to us to fulfill a specific program (prarabdha and dharma karmas). At the same time, if we do not fulfill our tasks, but, on the contrary, destroy our physical body in every possible way for the sake of sensual pleasure, we can very quickly shorten our lives.

At the beginning of the second period, when the heart stops and breathing stops, clinical death occurs. Deficiency of oxygen and glucose leads primarily to mass death of neurons in the cerebral cortex. A little later, subcortical and endocrine centers, bone marrow and other tissues die. At the moment of clinical death, our soul, along with "thin" shells and the ethereal matrix, is separated from the physical body, which, left without a vital principle, gradually begins to decompose.

Most of the "dead" in the first minutes and even hours after death, as a rule, do not see or realize anything. They seem to fall into darkness. However, some are able to observe their body and the place where they died almost immediately. Others gradually come to consciousness and, remaining in the etheric sheath, acquire the former activity of the senses, mind and intellect. The second stage of death resembles the second stage of birth - "the world is collapsing, and it seems that there is no way out."

At this time, we realize that everything that was connected with us - family, home, work, country, accumulated material wealth - is lost along with the physical body. Some call for help from relatives and friends, but they, of course, do not hear them. We do not know what awaits us next, so our soul is overwhelmed with fear. At the same time, those who have passed into the "other world" can read the thoughts of other people and immediately move to the one who thinks about him. Therefore, for the first nine days, thinking about the “dead”, you can send him good thoughts and thus really support him. And, of course, his perception of the world during this period will be mixed with the most vivid memories of a past life. The Bhagavad Gita says: "Thoughts at the time of death determine our future."

Some believe: "You can live as you please, but death will come, then we will think about God." However, they must know that at the second stage of death, the further path of the individual will be finally determined. And the way we lived, what we dreamed about, what we aspired to, what desires we cultivated and what actions we performed - will dominate in our minds and determine our future.

In ancient times, relatives invited a brahmin who read the sacred canons for the first nine days, helping the soul with dignity, without fear, to overcome the transition period; they convinced the "dead" that his existence was not complete, and he should calm his mind, concentrate on the spiritual and pray to God. The texts that were read described the subsequent stages of the transition that lay ahead of him.

Not later than the third day, the body, as a rule, was cremated, and the ashes were scattered over one of the sacred rivers. The rite of cremation helped the deceased to move away from attachment to the physical body and significantly reduced the time of his "otherworldly" suffering. Some, due to their ignorance, are trying to re-enter their already decaying physical body. Therefore, in cemeteries and morgues one can sometimes see ghosts, which in fact are the “thin” bodies of the “dead”, condensed with an ethereal shell (due to attachment, they cannot part with their physical body). Their ethereal matrix luminesces in a certain direction of moonlight and exactly follows the contours of the physical body of a person, animal, plant or other life form.

Sometimes one thinks that instant death is the most fortunate. This is not true. A person who suffers before death is morally more prepared for it than a person who dies immediately, who, at its second stage, experiences a strong shock and cannot come to terms with its arrival.

There are six categories of people who are stuck in the second stage for more than nine days:

Committed suicide.For example, according to the law of karma, a person was supposed to live 70 years, but committed suicide at 18. This means that he will remain in the etheric body for the “unfinished” 52 years, not being able to leave it. This time will be very difficult for him, since near the surface of the Earth the incompatibility of subtle and earthly energies is maximum and brings the most tangible physical suffering. Life is given to us to fulfill a specific individual program (prarabdha-karma and dharma-karma). If a person kills himself, then he, as it were, jumps out of the “train of life”.
Those who committed bloody crimes against humanity, maniac killers, cruel dictators who gave orders for the destruction of thousands or millions of people "hang" in the second stage for hundreds and even thousands of years.
Those who die in a state of alcoholic or drug intoxication wander in the etheric body, just like suicides, for quite a long time. Nevertheless, they can be helped by performing a special ceremony and ordering a funeral service in the temple.
Dead in a dream. Sometimes we think that a person dies in their sleep, but most people wake up before they die. Only those who are deeply immersed in tama guna (a state of ignorance) and lead an animal mode of existence die in a dream.
Violent deaths and missing. The relatives of these people hope for a "miracle" and keep them at the level of the ethereal plane. Of course, it doesn't matter much whether our body is buried, burned, or eaten by jackals or birds of prey. However, if one of our loved ones is too attached to us, he will not allow us to take a new birth.
Those who worshiped bhoots (spirits) and consciously practiced "black" magic. These personalities are so strongly connected with the "World of Inorganics" that even after death they are unable to free themselves from its influence and continue to communicate with its essences.

All of these personalities have been around the living for a long time and wander around the world, causing them anxiety. After all, their sense organs were destroyed along with the physical body, so they cannot connect the senses with the objects of the senses and get pleasure from this, and therefore they suffer greatly. Sometimes they settle in abandoned houses or castles, and sometimes they try to enter the physical body of those who have a weakened will. This is how one of the forms of possession described in the Ayurvedic canons arises.

The third stage of death: passing through "hell" and "heaven"

The third stage of death - "the light at the end of the tunnel" - is associated with the exit of the soul through one of the 350,000 nadi channels. In accordance with the chosen program, which floats in the mind like air bubbles in water, we enter the channel that is illuminated by the Paramatma, the localized form of God, which accompanies us throughout our material existence. According to the level of our consciousness, we can see the appearance of the Paramatma or simply the light emanating from God. Each channel has its own hue - purple, blue, red, green, orange, etc. According to the Tibetan Book of the Dead, even by the shade of color, one can understand what form of life and what place in the Universe we are going to.

The third stage of death in the earthly chronology is 40 days, although subjectively it may seem like an eternity. It is wrong to commemorate the deceased on the 40th day - you need to add another nine days to 40. Only on the 49th day does the deceased end his earthly existence. At this time, the etheric body completely disintegrates, and all information is copied to one of the matrixes of the Universe. There is a space called Pitri-loka. No matter how many people live in the Universe, after their death, all information about their fate in a symbolic form is encoded in the "World of Pitri". Pitri-loka is called the planet of ancestors. All images of people who once lived in our universe, the duration of which is 311 trillion 40 billion years, take on a certain symbolic form in this space. After death, a person can come into contact with the information ("image") of their ancestors at will.

Remember Job's words, "The living envy the dead"? The fact is that neither "hell" nor "heaven" exists in the outside world. They are inside us and are like a dream. Someone chuckles: “So what? It's just a dream". But don't we wake up in a cold sweat and scream when we have nightmares?

So, we set off on a journey through one of the nadi channels in order to go through our inner "hell" and "heaven". What is better in the beginning? It probably depends on how godly or sinful the person has been in their life.

All our desires are first "feeded" by certain thoughts, and then "watered" by appropriate actions. This is how we generate the so-called elementals” (thought images). Pious elementals resemble angelic beings, while negative elementals resemble monsters like those seen in computer games or horror films. When we pass through one of the nadi channels, we find ourselves on various "stages" where all these monsters that we ourselves have created appear. For example, in the Vedic canons it is said that if a person eats meat, i.e. takes the flesh of a living creature killed by him or for him, he generates the corresponding mental image, which he will meet at the time of death. Meat in Sanskrit is called mamsa. It means: "In this life I eat you, in the next life you will eat me." Thus, we give the sanction that we ourselves will become food for others.

All this will take place during the third stage of death. Some say: “But I don’t kill myself!”. However, the Vedas indicate that those who kill, those who authorize the killing, those who sell meat, those who butcher it, and those who cook or eat it, commit one sin.

If you condemned or hated someone, showed exorbitant greed or pride, know that you have created terrible monsters that can only be destroyed with special mantras or spiritual practices.

There is an ancient parable about how a spiritual teacher explained to his disciples the essence of the concepts of "hell" and "heaven" that are inside of us.

... The Sun was burning high in the blue sky. In its bright light, the water in the Ganges seemed dark, almost black. On the bank of the great river sat a teacher and several students.

So, now you know that all our desires are first "feeded" by certain thoughts, and then "watered" by appropriate actions. This is how thoughts are born. Once again I repeat to you: negative mental images are like monsters. When, dying, we pass through one of the nadi channels, we find ourselves on different "stages" where we meet all these monsters that we ourselves have created.

There was silence. After a pause, the guru asked, "Did everyone understand what I said?" One of the students, quite young, with a long nose and lively, sparkling eyes, twitched his cheek.

I'm sorry teacher. It turns out that "hell" exists within us, and this seems to be understandable. But how you want to see all this with your own eyes, find yourself in "hell", experience for yourself what it is!

Be your way, - answered the teacher, - but tell me, how much time do you need to properly feel what "hell" is?

Then the inquisitive young man remembered that his mentor was endowed with considerable mystical abilities, and shied away. However, it was too late to retreat.

I think fifteen minutes will be enough, - he muttered ... and immediately dusk fell around.

Before him stretched an endless desert. Here and there, hands clenched into a fist stuck out of the sand, sticking out to the elbow. Suddenly, the fists of several closest to him unclenched, revealing a wide-open eye in the middle of each palm. All eyes stared at the student and began to examine him. The looks, shameless and mocking, seemed to strip naked and turn inside out. A minute later, the rest of the hands opened, and toothless mouths were found in them, from which pus flowed mixed with words. Listening, one could understand that the mouths were discussing all the shortcomings of the newcomer, recalling individual episodes of his life, pulling out his innermost thoughts and mocking them. Unable to stand it, the student plugged his ears with his fingers, and then the nearest mouth spat pus, which hit right in the face and began to burn like molten lead. Howling in pain, horror and disgust, the student rushed to run, not understanding the road. He rushed under a hail of spitting, burning through his clothes, corroding his skin and muscles, and suddenly he felt that the sand under his feet had ended. Cautiously opening one eye, he saw that he was standing on the shore of a lake, from which it breathes freshness and coolness. Gasping with happiness, he entered the water up to his chest and began to wash off the fetid spit. Beside him, an alligator's head poked out of the water, inexplicably reminding the student of his own face, reflected in a large mirror at the moment when, as a teenager, he cruelly and caustically mocked his younger sister.

“Change of scenery,” the alligator squeaked. Immediately, long and thin brown worms crawled out of its mouth. The student saw with horror and felt that the creatures penetrated under his clothes, crept up to his head and began to crawl into all the natural openings of the body. Experiencing incomparable pain, the student with great difficulty crawled ashore and buried his face in the cold ground.

The ground parted before him, and the dead face of his mother peeked out. Scorpion tails protruded from his eye sockets. "Change of scenery," the face croaked. Pieces of flesh began to fall off of him, and finally the dog's skull was exposed. “Remember how you wanted to hit your mother in the face?” the skull barked and bit off the student's nose. Covering the ground around with blood gushing from his disfigured face, the apprentice knelt down on all fours.

"What is it, what is it?" he whispered silently, trying to hold back his sobs. Tears welled up from his eyes. In those few seconds that he cried, all his wounds and ulcers healed and stopped hurting. He rose to his feet. “You yourself know what it is,” the sand rustled under your feet, the wind whispered, the water in the river murmured. - This is your envy, anger, greed ... "

"Hello," a sonorous child's voice came from somewhere below, "change of scenery." In front of him stood a tiny, cubit-high, very pretty little boy. He smiled and the student saw that the boy had wolf teeth. “Torturing animals is not good,” the wolf boy said affectionately, and thrust a pickaxe that had come from nowhere into the student’s right knee. Sparks flashed in his eyes and he fell to the ground. “Yes, it’s not good,” the creature repeated and plunged the pickaxe into his head, “wow, it turns out that we have brains!” Suddenly, the little tormentor disappeared somewhere, and the wounds again began to heal by themselves. Before he had time to rejoice at this, as again - “Change of scenery!”, And he hangs upside down on an iron palm tree, and next to him, a chicken the size of an elephant cackles thunderously. “What a delicious worm I got for lunch! Let's gouge out his eyes first!"

He could not, even if he wanted to, calculate how many times this “Change of scenery!” sounded, how many terrible, grotesque, disgusting creatures passed before him, personifying meanness, hatred, arrogance, vanity, laziness ... How many times he was boiled in syrup, mixed not with sugar, but with lies, they burned out their eyes with red-hot clots of malice, forced them to swallow live piranhas of betrayal, tore out their nails and sprinkled their bleeding fingers with burning grains of theft and bribery ... Each time his flesh was restored, revived, to undergo new torments. In the end, he lost track of time.

"Change!.."

He could think of nothing but pain, for he felt nothing but suffering. He would be happy if his body, constantly experiencing hellish torments, would finally cease to recover, crumble to dust and cease to feel anything ... alas. He dreamed that his mind was clouded - if such a thing happened, the pain would recede. But even this was denied to him. It seemed like an eternity had passed since he had been here.

An eternity in hell... an eternity. Why, teacher? Why did you deceive me? I curse you and your deceit! Get me out of here!!!

Suddenly, the terrible creatures retreated to the sides, surrounding the student in a dense ring. The clouds parted in the lead-black sky, a sunbeam fell on the ground inside the circle of monsters, from which the figure of his spiritual master floated out. He smiled and approached the student.

Eternity? Not at all, my friend. You were only away for five minutes, less than you wanted. But maybe you still can't wait to watch the performance to the end?

Righteous activities, on the other hand, will give us "heavenly" pleasures. On our way, fabulous groves and gardens will appear, exuding amazing floral aromas and filled with beautiful birdsong. Amazingly beautiful men and women will meet along the blue lakes, and we will be able to experience "heavenly pleasures" that surpass any earthly joys hundreds of thousands of times. However, this will end sooner or later, and we will have to part with the illusions of this wonderful world.

The fourth stage of death: a change of scenery

After 49 days comes the fourth stage of death - the stage of liberation. We feel like a completely free person, like an actor who has finally played his part in a play. During this period, we will be in a special state of consciousness, when we will be shown the future "scenario" of life, our new "cosmic corridor". We will find out what we have to do in the next incarnation, at the next stage of our evolution. We will be able to see our future parents, the place where we will be born and find out what obstacles and temptations will meet on our life path and what tasks we will have to solve. We are likely to experience both the joy of liberation and, perhaps, the fear of a new unknown fate. At this time, we realize ourselves as a spiritual person and we will pray to God that He never leaves us on our difficult path.

As a rule, the waiting period for a new incarnation does not take more than a few weeks or months.

The ancient tantras say: "When the soul leaves this physical body along with all the attributes of the surrounding world, a new place is already prepared for it." However, if you died prematurely (for example, being in a "dead end" corridor) - this stage may take several years. Sometimes, if a person has a unique development program that can manifest itself only under strictly defined social or temporal circumstances, the waiting time can be hundreds or even thousands of years. In this case, the soul enters the state of "svapna" (unconscious) and awaits its new birth. published

Fragments from the book of I.I. Vetrov "Fundamentals of Ayurvedic Medicine"

Ecology of life. Cognitively: We can always determine exactly what problems we will face at a given age. Each of us must...

Throughout our lives, we all go through 12 stages corresponding to the signs of the Zodiac. And there is a point of life that moves at a speed of 4.3 degrees per year, starting in Aries and ending in Pisces.

We can always determine exactly what problems we will face at a given age. Each of us must fulfill his program at each specific age and, as a result, for the rest of his life.

Look at how your life program is being implemented, draw your own conclusions.

From 0 to 7 years.

The point of life at this age moves along the most nimble sign - Aries.

Babies are full of energy, they are restless and inquisitive, they immediately want to know everything and about everything, and there is no such force that could stop them.

And it is not necessary to restrain the child at this age, on the contrary, it is necessary to give him more freedom, because it is very important for him to assert himself and show his abilities.

The task of parents is to instill in the child a sense of love and compassion for others, to prevent selfishness and cruelty from developing. After all, the motto of this age and Aries is: “I want!” Do not let the child offend animals and other kids, teach to take care of nature, cultivate willpower. If you fail to instill these qualities in a child before the age of seven, you will never instill them!

7 to 14 years old

The point of life moves to curculous Taurus.

Therefore, gentlemen, parents, do not indulge all the material desires and whims of your child. At this stage of life, he must be taught to control his emotions, especially anger and aggression. It is necessary to develop and train memory.

Try "culturally", but firmly, build a social circle for teenagers, since at this age the negative energy of the crowd accumulates in him, which can later manifest itself in cruelty and intransigence towards others. But do not isolate the child from peers. Of great importance is the place of their meetings and the atmosphere.

It is also important to lay the foundations of systemic learning. Try to get the child to learn more of the various material being studied, the more, the better. At this age, it is quite easy for a child to instill a love for art and aesthetics. The most suitable time for studying in music and art schools.

And at the age of 13-14, you need to instill and form the right attitude towards your ancestors and roots. You can speculate on philosophical topics. It is time!

From 15 years old to 21 years old

The dot moves in the sign of Gemini.

It's time to actively develop intelligence and independent thinking. At the age of 15–16, a person enters society, where there are laws and rules that must be learned to be observed in order for society to accept it. It is necessary to get rid of lack of assembly, irresponsibility, craving for gossip and speculation.

It's time for parents to get into sex education for their kids, otherwise they will find out everything themselves (actually, I think these recommendations about sex education are outdated, start it earlier).

At this age, it is useful to travel a lot, to learn the cultures of other countries, to absorb a variety of information.

From 21 to 28 years old

The point of life is in Cancer.

This is a very important stage in the life of every person. The main task is the improvement of the inner world, the formation of one's own system of values based on the experience of older generations.

Being engaged in introspection and spiritually improving, a person should try to get rid of many negative qualities: suspiciousness, isolation from others, greed.

The most difficult thing at this age is to overcome the milestone of 25–26 years, when a person is overcome by the desire to give up everything and start living anew. During this period, it is very important to make the right choice, since many have already started a family. Often reckless actions break life not only for him, but also for those close to him.

In order not to make mistakes, you need to establish strong spiritual ties with parents and relatives, just with the older generation. In a difficult situation, they are able to really help both in word and deed.

25-26 years is the most favorable time for the birth of children, since they adopt the best qualities of their personality from their parents.

From 28 to 35 years old

The point of life is in Leo.

A tendency to adventurism, alcoholism, drug addiction begins to appear; there is an influx of energy that not everyone can use correctly, many begin to waste it, indulging in joys and entertainment, often empty and useless.

The best way to fight temptations is to study philosophy, religion, reading books that raise morality and purity of soul. It is very important to choose the right philosophical concept, not to go into sectarianism, not to accumulate negative energy that can destroy a person.

The turning point is up to 32 years. From the age of 28, family problems fade into the background, the main thing is your own ego. A person tries to prove himself in a team to be noticed and appreciated. At the age of 29, for the first time, he sums up the results of his years.

For women, a period of 32 years is very important. Time to change feelings, reconsider your personal relationships. At this age, divorces often occur, new love relationships are made. We must try to analyze the past, to weigh all the pros and cons, not to cut off the shoulder immediately. New feelings may not last long, sometimes only a year.

From 35 to 42 years old

The point of life is in Virgo.

There comes a time when a person must give away most of the energy accumulated in the previous period. Clarity and methodical approach to solving a variety of problems are needed.

Favorable time for professional growth and marriages of convenience.

Age from 37 to 38 is a karmic test, a test of societies. This is the first test on how you follow the principles of the Zodiac, whether you are fulfilling your life program. And if not, then you will be punished in the form of various life problems: dismissal from work, serious illness, betrayal of friends.

During this period, you must definitely pay close attention to your health. Pay special attention to your diet, try not to slagging the body.

At the age of Virgo, unpleasant traits can appear in the character: obnoxiousness, pickiness, stinginess, disregard for the feelings and needs of others. But most importantly - get ready for the most responsible cycle of your life- 42 years - a half-cycle of Uranus, when the point of life crosses the life "equator". At this age, many are trying to change their lives, as it seems to them, for the better: they change their family, place of work, place of residence, hobbies.

From 42 to 49 years old

The point of life moves in the sign of Libra.

During this period, a person tries to surrender to a creatively chosen business at the age of 42. This age is also called "Indian summer", when harmony and maturity come in both personal and social life. Everything that has been accumulated over previous years has been analyzed, systematized and is waiting for implementation.

The main planet of Libra is Venus. It is she who guides a person in an effort to create strong harmonious ties, follow the laws of ethics and morality in deeds and feelings.

During this period, it is necessary to establish social ties, get a new job, show your organizational skills and overcome shortcomings. Such as, for example, egocentrism, selfishness, a tendency to dictate. A good time to develop talents if you have them.

From 49 to 55 years old

Scorpio time.

A difficult, critical period in the life of any person, especially women. We have to change long-established views, which is very difficult to do. Breaking is difficult and painful. On the physical plane, many people often have oncological diseases, many (especially at the age of 52) have a sexual syndrome - increased sexual dissatisfaction.

At the age of Scorpio, a person has tremendous self-destructive power and is sometimes ready to go for broke in order to achieve a goal. It is necessary to control your emotions, in no case close in on yourself and not engage in self-digging. Go out more often, meet friends, study psychology, creativity or collective activities.

This period is favorable for the disclosure and improvement of magical and occult abilities. Women aged 52 are especially prone to this.

For those who until that time led an unrighteous way of life, fate provides a chance to correct themselves, abandon delusions and begin to live on completely new philosophical principles.

From 56 to 63 years old

At this age, the point of life moves in the sign of Sagittarius.

A person begins to rush into philosophy or religion. Many have a fussy craving for knowledge that they did not have time to acquire once. I would like to learn several sciences at once, different philosophical currents. But, as a rule, this fails. Mercury is imprisoned, and, grasping for a lot, a person does not achieve results at all. Try to choose one thing and study this subject in depth.

At the age of 56, a person undergoes another social test. Here all the mistakes and blunders made at the age of 37 and 38 are manifested. Whoever has correctly approached this stage of his path, he occupies high positions in society. Those who do not pass the test do not achieve their goals and go on a well-deserved rest.

From 63 to 70 years old

The point of life moves in the sign of Capricorn.

Last chance is coming! It is at the age of 63 that the last choice of a person takes place, when he can change his life if he wants to. The one who makes the wrong choice, as a rule, passes away or breaks it badly. This is especially true for people who seek to create another family: in 90% of cases, nothing comes of it. It is possible to destroy the old, but it is almost impossible to create a new one.

At the age of Capricorn, it is necessary to abandon some stereotypical ideas, finally develop a vital, philosophical core and learn to give a clear assessment of each phenomenon, each event, but in no case impose your opinion and listen carefully to your opponents.

It is very important to build relationships with your loved ones correctly, since many at this age try to show despotism towards them. Try to develop in yourself diplomacy, the ability to compromise.

From 70 to 77 years

Aquarius time.

The time of contemplation of life, a philosophical view of it, the view of an outside observer. Throughout life, a person changes his attitude to the world around him, changes priorities.

As children, we say: "I am." In youth: "I and the world." In maturity: "The world and I." At the age of Aquarius, only "WORLD" remains.

This fourth stage of perception is the most important in understanding life and one's place in it. If over the years such a perception of the world does not come, then the spiritual qualities of a person gradually begin to fade, he falls into insanity, which inevitably leads to the collapse of the physical body.

The time of Aquarius is the time of enjoying loneliness or family solitude with your soulmate, since the life program has already been completed.

Agree, there is something to think about ... published

In 1930, Carl Jung published an essay titled "The Stages of Life". In the essay, the author defined four stages of human life - childhood, adolescence, middle age and old age. His conclusions were based on clinical observations.

Jung viewed youth as a period of consciousness expansion, middle age as a period of testing for long-held beliefs, and old age as a period of heightened attention to self-esteem. Jung also believed that dreams help us better understand ourselves, and this does not depend on age and what period of life we are talking about.

Each stage of our life is characterized by certain problems of the emotional, intellectual, spiritual or physical plane. Such problems can cause dreams of a certain content. These dreams can help us cope with age-related difficulties and problems in order to successfully resolve them and move on to a new stage of development.

Jung believed that people's reluctance to be open to change or new experiences, something unknown that might threaten their sense of self, is often the reason they can't be independent, whole people, and just happy people.

Jung sought to determine what determines the balance in a person's life at each of its stages, and he tried to do this through the interpretation of dreams and the process he called "individualization". Dreams are a powerful tool for introspection, helping to better understand yourself, understand your feelings and actions at every stage of life. They help us to understand what is hidden in our subconscious, to understand what is the egocentrism of our personality.

In this article, we will consider dreams that are considered typical for certain stages of life. Some dream analysts believe that such dreams are among the "developing dreams."

They reflect the typical stresses, problems and themes of a certain age. It's worth it, as you always expect dreams to reflect your day-to-day anxieties and worries in adolescence or otherwise, as well as the evolutionary processes associated with the transition from one age group to another.

However, keep in mind that the stresses and problems of a certain age group always appear before us in dreams, depending on the specific circumstances, sleep habits, and our ability to remember dreams. Also keep in mind that you can experience dreams typical of another stage of life at any age.

In this part of the dream book, we will also talk about dreams associated with death. Since death is the final stage of life, it can symbolize the changes that await us at each stage of life. And although death dreams can help you understand how you feel about death, or reveal your potential that you may have overlooked or not taken into account at all, dream analysts believe that such dreams reflect the end of one stage of life and the beginning another.

They also believe that dreams about death sum up the lived period of life, relationships or career, and therefore such dreams should not be interpreted literally. In the past, the mere thought of death terrified us, it became a symbol of disaster and contained a premonition that everything must change. Death was perceived by us as something that needs to be endured, endured, put up with, as something that is beyond our understanding.

As we age, our attitude towards death changes. Death in dreams symbolizes for us a certain conclusion, a difficult test that cannot be avoided, but which you will have to face if, of course, you want to succeed in your affairs and take a step forward in your real life.

Dreams about death carry a message, and this message says mainly that the attitude of the sleeper to life, his approaches to problems or views of events must undergo changes. And if you have the courage to make such changes successfully, then you can just as successfully move in your real life to something new.

Life Stages in numerology are defined as accurate road maps that indicate the main path to a person throughout the main 4 periods of his life. They are a kind of mirrors that reflect the desired direction of thoughts and actions in a specific period of time. If you want to be successful in life and fulfill your destiny, you need to keep yourself within these areas. It is enough to follow your own Destiny, which is presented in the date of birth given to you.

The first Life Stage falls on the beginning of life - spring. It is personal for each of us, as it falls at the beginning of the path.
The Second Life Stage symbolizes the flowering and indicates a period when we are forced to understand what responsibility and family ties are.
The third Life Stage is the maturity or autumn of human life. At this stage, we are faced with a deliberate life position when we extend our activities to the area of public interest.
Fourth Life Stage - decline or old age. This is the time when we have the opportunity to use "to the fullest", the experience gained over the years of life.

The Life Stages are very instructive. No one escapes the events indicated by them. They serve as accurate road signs for both the enlightened mystic and the common man. However, the mystic welcomes the steps to be taken in the future and makes them part of his glorious achievements. And an ordinary person calls them “fate”, “fate” or “predestination” and does not see the deep meaning of this experience.

In predicting and interpreting Life Stages, the nine-year cycle is key. Nine months is the natural period of time required for the full development and birth of human life. The Bible often mentions a seven-year cycle. But it cannot be called complete. Childbirth after seven months of pregnancy is premature. Each Life Stage covers a nine-year period of time.
