FOUNDER, THE CENTRE FOR SACRED DEATHCARE
Welcome to The Centre for Sacred Deathcare
Sacred Deathcare is about creating new possibilities for how we can meet death and loss. They’re new to most of us in dominant culture. They’re ancient to our ancestors, but we’ve lost them. At the core of it, it’s about expanding what we understand death to be.
If we understand death just to be the end of the body, and we are our bodies and we are done, that gives us a very small window to look at the experience through.
If we say death is the separation, body and soul are together and they separate. We need to care for the body, but we also need to care for the soul. If we say the soul continues on after we die, the soul has its own parallel journey, then that opens up a whole new understanding of what’s happening.
It opens up a whole new set of tools and responses, and it opens up a whole new set of possible experiences. Death can become more bearable, more meaningful, and even more beautiful. It’s still hard and sad, but it’s not only hard and sad.
