Some people die a sudden death from the interference of the energy of another individual, including murder, which changes one's entire destiny, and are not prepared for it. They are often confused when they first cross over and will feel that this was not meant to be. Questioin 163: Does the soul regain self-awareness after leaving the body? Answer: Not all at once. For a time it is in a state of confusion that obscures its perceptions."
pg. 95, 2003Kardec discussion: "This state of confusion takes on special aspects depending on individual character and manner of death. In cases of violent or sudden death--by suicide, capital punishment, accident, stroke, etc. - the spirit is often astounded, doesn't believe itself to be dead, and stubbornly persists in asserting the contrary."
pg. 96, 2003You may after death utterly refuse to believe that you are dead, and continue to focus your emotional energy toward those you have known in life.
pg. 130, 1994...these conditions are also impediments to the time of choosing [between life state]. It goes without saying that an obsession with earthly concerns also acts in the same manner. In such instances, often the personality will insist upon focusing his perceptive abilities and energies toward physical existence...The individual knows quite well that he is dead in your terms, but he refuses to complete the psychic separation. There are instances of course where the individuals concerned do not realize the fact of death. It is not a matter of refusing to accept it, but a lack of perception. In this state such an individual will also be obsessed with earthly concerns, and wander perhaps bewildered throughout his own home or surroundings. The time of choosing [between life state] will, of course, necessarily be postponed.
pg. 160, 1994Such is the state of spiritual enlightenment of the earth that in many cases these folk are completely unaware that they have died. That means simply that they have never ceased to live there has been an unbroken continuity of life for them, as indeed there is for all of us. This situation frequently arises among people who pass into the spirit world suddenly and perhaps without warning. Their lack of knowledge of conditions existing in the spirit world produces this state of bewilderment, and if there is added to that ignorance also the fact that, during their earthly life, they never gave any heed to a future life in the spirit world, then their situation becomes a doubly unhappy one. But there is in the spirit world a vast organization of all its immense resources, and it must not be thought that these bewildered souls are left to shift for themselves. They are soon taken in hand by others long resident in spirit lands?as you judge time?who devote their spirit lives to such work. Our task is often a difficult one because it is not always easy for the soul to grasp what has happened. The mental equipment of the individual may cause a reluctance to accept the truth. On the other hand, those who are mentally alert will soon see for themselves the exact situation. If only knowledge of the laws and conditions of spirit life were universally diffused throughout the earth world, what a wealth of difference it would make to each soul as he came to reside in these lands.
