Dead (the) - mention only their good qualities
All creatures who leave the earth have one weakness: they need to be remembered, and of course, they want to be remembered for their qualities. There is no greater suffering for a deceased person than to hear someone mention their faults and wrongdoings. It is torture for them, as if they were being beaten, because the human word is greatly amplified in the astral world. Good words are therefore also amplified and delight those who have crossed to the other side: such words rain down blessings on them. This is why in all cultures it is customary to speak well of the dead: all bad deeds are left aside and only their qualities and the good they have done are proclaimed, even to the point of exaggeration. This is the vestige of a tradition based on initiatic knowledge. So, you too, when you have to speak of the dead, mention only their qualities and leave the rest be.*
Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
