Death Processes
The Sacred Portal of Death: Why Conscious Dying Is a Key to the Golden Age
As we upgrade our sense of being and the eternal nature of consciousness we understand that Death is not the Absolute. Dying is the inevitable and in Western, modern society people have become frightened and dissociated from Death rather than celebrating it.
I am in service to enabling people to find dignity, peace and closure around Death with compassion and understanding. Whether it be your own process of finding the ‘New Me’ and saying goodbye to the past model, or making sure a loved one’s spirit has passed over peacefully i offer unique fusions of modalities and ceremonies for each need, individual or community.
“To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.”— J.K. Rowling
In our rush toward enlightenment, ascension, and the dream of a New Earth, we often forget the most profound portal to transformation—the one we all must pass through: death. But what if we told you that death is not an ending—but an exquisite, cosmic threshold? A rite of passage that holds the codes to liberation, morphogenesis, and the acceleration of a Golden Age?
Let’s reclaim death. Let’s bring it back into the sacred. Let’s become architects of conscious dying.
Death: The Forgotten Gateway to Spiritual Mastery
In many indigenous and wisdom traditions, death is seen as the ultimate initiation. A divine opportunity to dissolve karma, expand consciousness, and even transcend rebirth altogether.
Yet in much of modern Western culture, death has become sterilised, feared, hidden, and misunderstood. We die hooked up to machines, our souls unprepared, our loved ones disconnected from the deeper mysteries unfolding. We treat death like a failure, not a culmination.
This fear of death keeps us clinging to the material realm, stuck in ego, addiction, and avoidance. And as long as we relate to death as the end, we can never fully open to life as sacred—nor build the frequency required for a New Earth.
“In many cosmologies the concept of the death portal has similarities to the birth portal; that it is something of a cosmic superhighway where our spiritual essence either enters into or departs from its physical incarnation.”— Padma Khandro, Dakini Weaving – Keys to the Golden Age
Death, Karma & Liberation
Every moment of life is karmically shaped. And death? Death is where the karmic harvest ripens.
How we live shapes how we die. How we die shapes what happens next—whether rebirth, liberation, or stagnation in subtle realms. The dying process is a cosmic mirror that reveals the clarity (or confusion) of the mind.
To die consciously is to activate a high-frequency departure. One that:
Clears ancestral burdens Redirects future incarnations Uplifts the morphogenetic field Sends waves of healing through the collective pain body
Death is not a moment, it’s a journey—a multidimensional rite of passage.
Conscious Dying Is Quantum Service
When we support others to die consciously, we are not just being kind—we are engaging in planetary healing.
In the Bardo (the transitional realm after death, as described in Tibetan Buddhism), the soul is more sensitive, more teachable, more open. Our prayers, intentions, and compassion have tangible impact during this liminal window. This is where the Shambhala Warrior rises.
Imagine if we all held death as holy. Imagine if we all showed up for it—not just at the bedside of a loved one, but in our very way of being.
“(…) our quantum entanglement and devotional intent enables us to affect positive change for the outcome of the journey of the deceased. We therefore have agency to assist ourselves and others to reach Shambhala or to return to the material plane vastly less encumbered than in previous lives.” — Padma Khandro, Dakini Weaving – Keys to the Golden Age
The sacred path invites us to die before we die—to dissolve ego, fear, and attachment so we are ready for the great transition.
Many are now intuitively preparing for this: Through breathwork and altered states Through plant medicine ceremonies Through yoga, fasting, and vision quests Through dreamwork and inner journeys
These experiences, when held with reverence, train us for the Bardo. They mirror the journey of the soul after death—helping us learn to navigate the realms of light and shadow while still embodied.
Why the Golden Age Needs Death Reclaimed
The Golden Age isn’t just about technology, consciousness, and crystal grids. It’s about wholeness. And wholeness requires that we restore death to its rightful place: as a sacred, dignified, spiritual transition.
When we:
Make peace with mortality Support others through death with spiritual integrity Honour ancestral transitions with prayer and intention Release shame, fear, and avoidance around dying…
We collectively lighten the energetic load of the planet. We shift the karmic defaults. We accelerate liberation.
You Are a Death Doula of the New Earth
Whether you hold someone’s hand through their last breath, pray during their Bardo, or simply explore your own fears and beliefs about death—you are participating in sacred work.
You need presence. Compassion. Courage.
Every unprocessed grief we alchemise is an offering to the Earth.
Every ancestor we help release is a pattern we break for future generations.
This is the hidden revolution.
Ready to Prepare?
Here are ways you can begin to honour this sacred portal:
Talk about death. Break the taboo. Start with your loved ones.
Explore your beliefs—around soul, reincarnation, and karma.
Hold vigil for the dying. Even if only in your heart.
Practice conscious breathwork—it prepares you for the last breath.
Study the Bardo teachings, tantric death yogas, and reincarnation wisdom.
Serve the dead through ritual, prayer, and reverent attention.
Witness with love—help others transmute shame, regret, and ancestral burdens.
“Every death is an exquisite perfection.”
— Padma Khandro, Dakini Weaving – Keys to the Golden Age
To honour death is to honour life.
To prepare for death is to prepare for liberation.
To walk others home with reverence is to become a warrior of light.
So let us do this work not in fear, but in devotion.
Let us reclaim death as the sacred portal that it is.
Let us enter the Golden Age not by avoiding endings—but by meeting them with soul.
This is how we change the collective timeline.
This is how we return to the Truth of who we are.
Infinite. Sacred. Free.
DEATH DYING AND TRANSITIONS
Our DEATH, DYING and TRANSITIONS COURSE has now been running successfully SINCE 2021. We’ve also trained up an experiential multi-modality transitions team and many of our students have assisted people to cross over/support their families.
We now have ‘study in your own time’ recorded course for you to purchase through Dharma Stars. This course also qualifies towards Sekhem Master teacher module credits.
let’s talk about…… DEATH
In this course, we will look at the Ultimate Initiation – death.
We bring teachings from numerous traditions together to enable you to get closer to an approach to death and dying that is a unique introduction to this important theme, and it is astounding when we see some of the similarities across the traditions.
The sessions include teachingsthat have remained secret in many settings and over numerous centuries. We provide case studies, practical tools, ethical and practitioner information to enable you to feel more equipped to ‘land’ with the concept and psycho-spiritual aspects of Death.
For more about the course, to access the recorded version or to see the most recent new topics we have introduced please visit:
We are not sure when we will run the next real-time constellation of this powerful course. Please send an expression of interest to dharmastars.org@gmail.com and when there are enough students we will then meditate on a future intake.
My own experience with Death teachings
I work with various Death Processes (literal and symbolic dying).
As a Dying Consciously Practitioner i can assist people to begin their journey of leaving their body. I have worked with terminally ill clients for many years and having experienced my mother leaving her body when i was 15 i believe i was gifted with an understanding of Death from a young age to assist other people to come to terms with these transitions
I work also with soul fragments and psychopomp techniques and ceremonies to enable lost/fragmented souls to transition – this can be particularly useful in the case of sudden accidents, suicides, drug overdoses, violent deaths etc where the person involved may have not had times to come to terms with the transition. Sometimes family members and friends feel that someone has not passed and that they are trapped…I compassionately work with the loved ones and the deceased to ensure that important clearing and restoring of the soul fragments can take place in order for all to be at peace.
Ancestral clearings. Often people carry fragments of family members along their lineage. In the past people didn’t have therapy etc…often a lot of trauma and suffering was never expressed and increasingly i work with people who are carrying ancestral fragments for those who had no outlet to release. These clearings can massively help align family constellations and often dissolve patterns that clients are carrying for others.
Large scale ancestral work – i work internationally with large-scale land clearing and spirit release. In places where there have been massacres and large traumas the atmosphere is often very dense and energetically clogged up. I am experienced in doing large land clearings in UK, Ireland, Spain, the Mayan lands, Australia, Israel and more. Sometimes i do these alone and other times in groups.
Empowering clients with their own symbolic death and rebirth processes – to let go of their less Sovereign self and to step into a new way of Being. This will be specific for each client – it may involve quantum healing, natural medicines, Internal Family Systems, Breathwork, Clearing/Extraction, Identifying trauma and stagnation, Life Skills, Multidimensional modalities, psychotherapeutic work, Toltec practices, nature work, Ancestral healing techniques, Astrology, Dietary Changes and Shamanic practices . I have successfully escorted numerous people in the last 20 years to a New Way of Being where they can operate from Abundance and Confidence as a Spiritual Sovereign doing what they Love and are Good at!
