PART 10: Author David Dennis - Bet with Dad, UK Funeral Dream, Dad’s Passing and Message from ...
Author David Dennis - While I continued my spiritual journey in Australia, my dad remained an atheist and skeptic of the afterlife. I’ll never forget a chat we had when I visited England in 1999. I tried to convince him of the existence of an Infinite Creator and the afterlife, but he maintained his stubborn skepticism. I, therefore, bet him that if he died before me and found himself alive on the other side, he would send me a message admitting that I was right. With dad being of ill health, due to a lifetime of heavy smoking and drinking, he humorously accepted the bet.
18 months later, I had a disturbing dream in which I was once again in my hometown in England. I was about to walk into a church where a whole bunch of people were mourning at a funeral. Just as I was about to enter the church, I was whisked away and awoke, having never attended the funeral. Four months later I had another dream that I lost one of my front teeth, only to read that according to native American wisdom that means the loss of a father. Two months later I received a phone call from my oldest friend, David, and my Mum, informing me that my dad had been found dead early one morning behind his car in a car-park next to a local pub. I took a flight to the UK the next day to support mum and help her to organize dad’s funeral. David picked me up at Heathrow airport and told me that the police wanted to talk to me as soon as I got to Mum’s house. It turned out that Dad had been mugged by two young men and had died of a heart attack as a result. The police pursued the main perpetrator to Glasgow, Scotland and arrested him, while I was still at Mum’s house. They also arrested the second man, who’d taken only a passive role. Although we’d organized dad’s funeral, it could not proceed while I was in the UK; under British law, the accused were each entitled to have independent autopsies conducted, and there were no coroners available at the time. I, therefore, returned to Australia and ended up missing my own dad’s funeral.
Still shocked and in mourning, I phoned my metaphysics teacher, Rosalia, to tell her what had happened. During the call, I asked if she could contact my dad, having declined to mention our bet. She tuned in and replied, “Oh yes, but it doesn’t make much sense and isn’t very interesting.” She went on to declare that all he’d said was: “You were right all along, Dave.” At first, I was disappointed he hadn’t said more. Then it occurred to me that he was a man of very few words, and that’s precisely what he would have said. He was never one to embellish anything, but at least he was kind enough to honor our bet from beyond the grave!
I subsequently had two dreams about dad. In the first, my wife, young son, and I visited him in what I can only describe as an afterlife hospital. He was still somewhat traumatized from his violent death but was receiving assistance from afterlife care assistants. Yes, there is work for those who want it in the afterlife! In the second, about six months later, he’d fully recovered, was fit, healthy, and happy. He also appeared as I remember him in his mid-thirties while I was growing up in the sixties. I’ve since learnt that deceased persons often appear to relatives and friends in a preferred form from their former lives. It was wonderful to see him as a tall, lean, young, and healthy person once more.
At this stage, I was still angry at missing his funeral, and at the two young men who’d killed him. (They only received 4 years in jail for their violent crime). Fortunately, I was studying for a Diploma in Holistic Counselling and Lifecare at the time, and we were required to undertake personal counselling sessions as part of our course. The lady counsellor I selected used a technique known as Focusing, during which she asked me to view the main perpetrator from a higher perspective. I closed my eyes and visualized him as being surrounded by a mass of insidious dark energy. When I tried to answer from my own perspective of seeking justice, she interrupted by saying, “No, what does would the light want to do for him?” Where previously, I’d been filled with anger and resentment, I replied, “The light wants to burn away all the darkness that surrounds him to liberate his soul.” At that moment I saw all darkness being burnt away and a shining soul liberated from torment. All my anger immediately dissolved, never to return. With that came the understanding the no one is truly evil but can be negatively influenced by dark energies that influence their actions.
I finally completed my metaphysics course, together with diplomas in hypnotherapy, remedial massage, and Holistic Counselling and Lifecare. I resigned from my job as a home loan specialist at a major commercial bank. I then started my own business as a healer, remedial massage therapist, life coach, and past life regression therapist. I must say that I loved the work and learnt a lot .. MORE IN VIDEO...
