I had a dream where I found myself at a funeral. A dear friend of mine had lost her husband, and she was utterly heartbroken.
As the funeral was nearing its end, there was a ritual called "Crossing the Fire," signifying the severance of ties between the living and the deceased, wiping away all memories of each other. Only then could they let go of each other and continue forward on their respective paths.
My friend cried out, refusing to forget her husband, unwilling to "Cross the Fire."
With my psychic abilities, I could see her husband's spirit right beside her, his expression heavy with sorrow and grief.
Suddenly, he seemed to find a way to manifest himself in front of her, and she saw him.
He reached out to her and said, "Let me cross the fire with you!" She sobbed uncontrollably, refusing to reach out. She wanted time to freeze at this moment, unwilling to forget him after crossing the fire, knowing she would no longer remember him.
He comforted her, saying, "Let me accompany you through the fire, walk the final stretch together. This way, I'll also know I need to let go to start a new life." They embraced each other, tears flowing.
Watching their dialogue between the realms of the living and the dead, though separated by different worlds, I could sense their profound love for each other. Sadly, now divided by the boundary between life and death, their bond in this life had come to an end, and they had to let go eventually...
夢見我在一場葬禮。我的好友老公過世了,她傷心欲絕。
當葬禮快要結束前,有一個「過火」的儀式,意思是讓生者與往生者從此緣份斷絕,對彼此的記憶完全抹去。如此才能放下對方,繼續往應走的路上前進。
我的好友哭喊著,她不要忘記她老公,不願意「過火」。
我有通靈的能力,看到她老公的靈魂就在我好友的身旁。他的表情哀悽,也非常難過。
突然,他似乎找到方法,讓自己的形象顯現在我好友前,她看到了他。
他伸出手對她說「我帶著妳一起過火吧!」她嚎啕大哭,不願伸手。她想要把時間停留在此刻,不想過了火後,她就再也不記得老公的事了。
他安慰她說「讓我陪妳一起過火,走最後過一段路。這樣子我也知道我應該放下,才能有一個新的人生。」他們倆相擁而泣。
我看著他們人與鬼之間的對話,雖是不同世界,但可以感受到他們彼此深刻的愛。無奈如今天人永隔,此生緣已盡,終究仍需放手…
