What I wish I’d said to Anita Moorjani

There’s an autumnal edge to the air, and outside the leaves are speckled brown in places. The apples are reddening on the trees, and children’s school shoes are flying out of the shops. I’m about to plan the meditation themes for a new term in the Studio. So, all in all, I have that ‘going back to school’ feeling. The weather is cooling off and it’s time to learn again (as if we ever stop).
Instead of working, I keep thinking about a ‘nearly’ conversation I had with Anita Moorjani at the Hay House ‘I can do it!’ London conference last autumn. It keeps playing on my mind. I haven’t thought about it for months. So there must be a reason why it’s coming up now.
I heard Anita speak about her near death experience at the conference. I had previously read her book, Dying to be Me, and loved it. Last year, Anita was still fairly new to public speaking, and she was accompanied on stage by Dr Wayne Dyer. I liked her lack of ego. She wasn’t trying to prove anything. She simply had an amazing experience to share. Anita’s essential message seemed to be: Live your life fearlessly. You are always loved. You are magnificent. You are meant to be you, no one else. Live your life to the full. Enjoy being you.
At the end of the conference, I saw Anita again. I was standing in a long queue on the stairs, waiting for luggage from the cloakroom. Anita walked up the steps with her husband Danny. I said a quiet, heartfelt ‘Thank you’.
To my surprise, in all that noise Anita heard me and stopped. She looked at me, waiting for more. I didn’t know what to say. So I opted for: “Thank you for your talk. I really enjoyed it.”
“Why, thank you so much,” said Anita, and carried on her way.
Now the thing is, I wasn’t being honest. There was more I could have said. Much more.
What was I really thanking Anita for?
The clue is in this photo.
It’s a picture of my teenaged son, Timothy, with his lovely, supportive dad – my partner Steven. You will notice that Timothy is disabled. He has an undiagnosed condition which means that he cannot walk, except for a few wobbly steps. He cannot talk, beyond a few basic words. “Ready, steady go!” is his favourite expression. He uses signs to communicate. He is holding his ‘taggy’, a favourite soft shape covered with labels that he likes to play with.
You may also notice that Timothy is smiling. Timothy smiles a lot. He loves people. When I’m with him I always have a sense that I am unconditionally loved and accepted. Other people experience the same thing. Timothy feels good to be around.
So what does this have to do with Anita Moorjani?
A vision of bliss
Unlike Anita, I have not had a near death experience. But the year before Timothy was born I had an experience which was very like one. I call it a vision, but it involved other senses too.
In my vision, I wasn’t in my body. It felt to me that I was pure energy. Somehow, I was occupying the space between matter, between the particles of matter. Matter itself, our physical world, appeared insubstantial, like a movie image that you could put your hands through.
The feeling I had was pure, absolute bliss. I was known, and witnessed and absolutely loved by the overriding intelligence that was everywhere in that space. For want of a better word, I called that intelligent being, ‘God’. But I knew it had nothing in common with external views of God. I was unconditionally loved. I was incapable of sinning. I was this shining, wondrously loving consciousness in which I bathed, and it was me. There was no separation. And these same truths applied to every being on this earth.
Hard lessons
My vision of bliss has never completely left me. It sustained me when Timothy was born with complex and life-threatening issues, which became more apparent as he grew older.
As every parent of a disabled child knows, it is incredibly difficult dealing with the complex medical decisions for someone you adore, whose survival may at times seem fragile at best. It took me a while, and I stumbled many times, but gradually I learnt to trust my intuition – the inner voice of wisdom. And I believe this has helped Timothy immeasurably, many times over.
Not only that, after the vision it was as if a door remained open to the Other Realm. I have had, and continue to have, other visions that teach, sustain and delight me. Increasingly, I share these with others.
To me, it seems that Timothy himself occupies a space between this world and the Other Realm. He can appear immensely intuitive. He can sign an answer to me when I’ve only just framed the question in my mind – before I’ve spoken it aloud. And his unconditional love, his lack of judgement, is powerfully like the energy I experienced in my original vision of bliss.
So what exactly was I thanking Anita for?
In a word, validation.
Anita appeared to be terminally ill with cancer, on the verge of complete organ failure, when she had her near-death experience. In her book, Dying to be Me, she describes how she experienced a state of extreme bliss while also being aware of what was going on in the hospital, and also where her brother was, many hundreds of miles away. She describes how she understood that she was completely loved, and magnificent. And when she returned, her body healed within days.
What Anita describes corresponds to my own vision, although our circumstances were very different. I am grateful that Anita worked hard to share her experiences in a thoughtful and balanced way. Eighteen years ago, when I experienced my vision, these things were less talked about. I have always felt that I live two lives: the physical one here, and the blissful one, in the space between the particles. The first I talked about; the second, I did not.
Well, that is changing. Now I am talking about my experience of bliss – why ever wouldn’t I? Seeing Anita stand up and speak her truth, with dignity, on a stage before hundreds of people has got a lot to do with that.
The autumn term begins here in one week’s time. There’s one thing I’m sure about, whether I’m learning, or sharing what I’ve learnt: I will speak my truth.

Dear Suzanne, I found your ‘blog’ very moving. Your feelings from the heart came across and I am still on the verge of tears as I type this. Timothy sounds a joy to be with – a time you must cherish and give thanks that he was ‘given’ to you to be cared for. His picture expresses his joy, I am sure you are learning and will go on learning many things from him. I have listened to you when you talk about what you have gone through with him, and it is obvious of the connection you have with him.
I so enjoyed Anita’s story that I sent a copy to a spiritual friend now living in Australia. May I send her a copy of your blog please?
Love & light

Thank you for sharing this with us, what an inspiring story. All I want to say is that the face and the eyes of your son, even in the picture reflect so much love and light and specially purity of soul, and the way you explain it is perfect; ” Timothy himself occupies a space between this world and the Other Realm” it is almost as we can see the light and love of God shining through his being. He truly is a gift to you and your family, he is such an advanced, brave and selfless soul that came to earth to teach us many lessons. Many blessings to you and your family, specially Timothy.

Thank you for writing this–it moved me deeply. Many years ago, I lost my only son to brain cancer and, over the 6 years he lived with it, he became more and more disabled…and more and more loving. At the time, I was a mess–distracted, depressed and living in terrible anxiety over his approaching death and our precarious financial situation. But my wish now is that I could have had your wonderful insight and have heard Anita’s story back then. I hope this reaches many parents of disabled children and opens their eyes to the gift that time with their child truly is. The special ones seem to have a connection with that bliss that exists at the heart of our world of matter and connects it with the world to come.

Dear Patricia, I hold out my hand to you right now. You truly understand the joy and pain of loving a disabled child. There is a healing technique I would like to share with you now – I don’t know if you have tried this before. Give yourself permission to become quiet, and still. Connect with the divine within you. Know that you are loved and all is well. Then go back in time, in your imagination, to a particularly difficult day or night with your son. And give your younger self, and your son, the biggest loving hug and support. One time when Timothy was little, I was struggling just like you. I dreamt that my future self came to me and reassured me. I truly believe this helps, because time is an illusion. And essentially, we can always be with those we love. I hope this helps you and others in our situation.

Thank you both, Patricia and Suzanne (blog was so good to read) for your comments here. My son has autism. Although he has come so far I keep pushing and not being satisfied. I am missing out on the joy that is there. I was so much better when I was younger and more accepting. Now my fears for him coping in the world are blocking my just loving and being with him – and noticing his perfection just as he is. So, thank you. Now I will look for my younger self to comfort me today and my older self to look back on this day (and your comments) and be so grateful for the chance to realize and grow.

Thank you so much for that suggestion. Do you know, I wrote a short story 30 years ago in which that happened–I found a way to visit my younger self and communicate with her. I’m going to try to visualize such a meeting today when I meditate. And I’m going to pass along the idea to other people I know who have deep regrets about the past. This technique could help victims of all sorts of trauma, I think.

Dear Suzanne;
I totally understand your story. It is a amazing n wonderful story of your son Timothy . He is such a beautiful boy with an amazing smile that warmes the heart. I was also blessed with a son that had a very rare syndrome ( LeshNyhan Syndrome) Adam was such an amazing inspiration to many people n touched many lives. When he was born the Dr’s told us that Adam would not live til he was 5. I was devastated n could not accept this. I could not deal with the thoughts of death but Adam taught us that each day was such a blessing that our lives changed more each n every day to acceptance n joy. Adam never complained even though he was in a great deal of pain every day, he always asked about others. Adam would always see the positive in every day. He showed us what was more important each n every day n how to love life n others unconditionally.Adam was blessed to go to another Realm on a regular basis n tell us how beautiful it was. We had the pleasure of spending 25 years with the most amazing young man anyone will ever know.Adam beat many odds with great struggle n with a positive attitude. When Adam passed I kept thinking how beautiful the after life would be for him n I realized that this was his time to be free of pain n enjoy the things he taught us with great pleasure n freedom. He was a very positive young man. The emptiness in my heart will always be there but with thankfulness n great pleasure to have been his mother.It is very amazing that this came to me at this time because it is three years this week since we lost Adam. Adam favourite saying was ( I LOVE U NO MATTER WHAT ) and he meant this , he always seen the good in people.

Suzanne, this is such a beautiful piece of writing.
I’m not sure what I want to say, except that I would definitely have to agree with you that Timothy absolutely does feel good to be around. Despite his medical conditions and what many would see as a disadvantage in life, Timothy always seems to be one of the most content people I know. He has an amazing ability to lie back, often observing the activity of those around him and take it all in, yet just relaxing and “chilling out.” He is a very calming influence and I’ve spent many a happy time just sitting back on the sofa with him and particularly remember a lovely day lying on the trampoline together just looking at the sky. Content is always a word I’ve associated with Timothy, so I love your description of his bliss and of course who could know that any better than his own mother? Watching the two of you together and the communication between you is joyful and always very calming, but I also love his ability to share a cheeky joke or game and pure smiles.
I hope the book writing is going well and I shall look forward to reading it when you’re ready!
