We are all beautiful souls we just don't recognise that inner being, let Light and Love shine forth where dwelleth the silent One and make it manifest.
Death is an uncomfortable topic for the majority. No matter how much one prepares mentally for death and accepts, it is in human nature to fight for that last breath. If one accepts death as part of their path your existence will be calmer, further fulfilling and positive. Nothing better than accepting death and reminding oneself of the inescapable, to further push oneself to live a life full of adventure and love. Living not Existing💚 (Beautiful video, work is beyond professional 💚💚💚)
This made me cry....I lost my father, my lovely father last June this year....I miss him so.much...but I got to understand this is life....one day it will be my turn and we will see each other again.... Beautiful and sensitive video....thank you..
My best discovery in a year so full of tragedies as 2020 has been was this channel. Its power to change hearts and minds cannot be described. I am beyond happy.
If someone asked me what will you give back to Earth? I honestly be lost for an answer. Because Earth just gives gives gives - the food the beauty the day the night my body my mind my spirit all these and more are gifts from the Earth. And I, what do I do; I just take take and take! The Earth is incredibly unselfish. I get clear display of this unselfihness in all animals, all trees, every flower, every drop of water that sustains me. I ask myself do I have the right to take so much? The Upanishad says desire nothing, all objects you see in front of you are an illusion - a mirror in your mind, but you can give your love unselfishly like the animals do and Aatmanom Biddhi - you will know yourself. If I could achieve this the Earth will be happy. My dear Earth needs nothing more from Me.
@aliveinmind - Thanks for your beautiful compliment. And we hope that you keep tuned in - we're working on so much more to share in the weeks and months ahead. And if you haven't seen them yet, we've shared over 160 short films like this, so far - so happy binge watching ;). Justine x
@@ReflectionsofLife I am very fond of your films. Watching Your films is like meditating . All your films wrap me up with peace and calmness. I watched one of your film, which dealt with dislexia, but I can't remember the name of the film. Can you please help me to see the film again. I will remain grateful to you.
I am 70yo and remember when I was a kid after my grandma died an elderly neighbour said "don´t remember her death, much better to remember her life." That sure worked for me, and even now I still only remember her arms around me, her smile and her rocking me to sleep as a 4yo and much much more but I never think about her death!
What a great opening! And what a wonderful daily practice. My intention lately has been to live more fully every day so I'm going to try that practice and see if it helps. Love her line at the end..."I want to be grace..." Beautiful.
Living life fearlessly and loving the blessings of this moment. Living with the power of love in everything you do. Let go and laugh more..people you have loved want you to be joyous and to learn to live in love with whatever happens. We have no control, and we have all of the power. Use this glorious force for creating beauty and more love. Enjoy each precious moment.
Discussion of death is always needed and in part, we, as a society, have become so separated from what will always be an outcome of living. Triple kudos for this one Green Renaissance for the delicateness of your 'Giving Back to the Earth.'
Being a Registered Nurse... I accepted death early in my career. I feel the best way to live is to pack as much love and purpose in each day. Life is a precious gift and should be treated as such. Dwell on positive thoughts and take delight in the little things. Be proud of your accomplishments and pat yourself on the back when you have completed a task, particularly the difficult ones.
Hi Janet. I also a nurse and I feel the same. Our profession just humbled me and make the most of everyday. Life is beautiful but we are just passing by, no one will leave this world alive.
What an amazing topic! To be aware of one's own death and how to embrace it instead of living in constant fear of death. Brilliantly put across through you video... Circle of Life ❤️
I cant even name the list of changes your videos have got into me. I just want to say thank you. Thank you for the joyful tears. Thank you for the extraordinary Wednesdays. 🙏
@Shree Scouts - Oh WOW - what a special compliment. You have no idea what your message means to us. Thanks for allowing our films to reach into your heart and to touch your soul. We LOVE having you as part of our little online family x
Sorry that was a flirtatious thing. Do not try to understand, if u didn't get anything leave it. There was nothing to get actually, my goodness just leave it. Lol.
So grateful I found you Green Renaissance 💚 I listen before bed and as I get ready for the day. Everyone is so inspiring and positive and enlightened and full of love. Putting life into perspective and what really matters in this life.
@@ReflectionsofLife well unless humanity cant take the responsiblity on their own self and still act like a victim then perhaps your videos will be useless.. your videos are inspiring but still people must do the work and not just watching videos.. myself us not exempted of course because im having difficulty on shifting my awareness to where its designed..

With everything that is happening at the moment with this Pandemic one of the things that has stayed with me the most is Why are we so afraid of dying? People are terrified of the thought they could die if they catch this virus. It really opened my eyes to my own fear.
"Death? There is no Death. Just a change of Worlds." ~Cheif Seattle~ This is a beautiful and very well done video. Again thank you so much. I've only watched four or five and now I know this is my favorite Channel.
I said to my husband a number of years ago that if I die before him not to have my body embalmed but have me buried in the most natural way possible and plant a tree over my grave so that I can become part of the tree. Recently I found a lovely green buriel site near where I live so that’s where I’ll be one day. It’s so lovely to see that the ladies in this film are like minded. I can’t think of anything more beautiful than helping to feed the land with my own body.
Thank you for sharing these thoughts with us. So glad this video could confirm and support your idea, your wish. Also that you were able to locate a nice area to be buried one day. May you have a happy and wonderful life till that day. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Isn't it death that makes life so precious, livable? Steve Jobs from a well-known brand said once that death was his greatest motivator. I love to acknowledge that we all are one. An expression from the ONE that is. Behind your eyes I see that ONE. We are spirits. Sharing that experience of being human for a while. No past, no future...those are concepts. There only is the eternal now. "Namaste" says it all.
I am 51 and have suffered with a paralysing fear of death for years which has robbed me of joy. Wish there were more videos like this, very encouraging.
By the time I was 12 I had experienced so much death to the point that I felt "left behind"... this is obviously not the usual attitude but I felt it. I have lived my life in anticipation of death that at times I did not quite live. It has been changing though, I try to live more now, but the idea of death is never to far from me.
Our ancestors are the trees ! Yess.!! I have had many tree-friends during my life and I have a very old wild-apple tree, who became my very Best friend i a time of very hard mental crisis for me. I moved- and I very often think of my good friend - both alive and consciouss. That old tree saved me. Thank You for Your words about an unfortunately very difficult matter to most of us !🌳🌻🌳🌺🌳🌷☘🌹🍀
I like the last gal talking. To just be put in the ground wrapped in a cloth. I have seen where your ashes can be put in a pod and a tree will grow from it. I like that idea also.
Beautiful ❤ We come from the earth and we return to the earth. Embrace life every second of each day, because no one knows when their life will end. If you're not scared of dying you can live life with an open heart & enjoy the ever changing seasons. Death to me means that I've learned and shared all the life lessons I need to be completely at peace. I get to go back home where I truly began ❤🙏
I transport into the world of unknown.. u somewhat make me alive... not in the habit of commenting on UA-cam but this compels.. love to the group behind this adventure 💓🪔
Another, Beautiful, Heartfelt, Wonderful video !!!!!!!!!!!! I have never feared death, but remember as a child, fearing, getting old...... Now My only fear is, who would take care of my dogs if I was to die.......... I would love to be buried in some field, under some big old tree.......To help it, along its journey. I Have often thought, when passing by cemetaries....... what a terrible waste of money and ground, for something in a short amount of time, won't matter at all.
Obsolutely love these videos. Such inspiring people and stories! Watching these makes me feel great love for life! Thank you very much for making these videos!
I think about death everyday. All my closest family members are dead. I was fortunate to be home with my mom when she was ill & dying & the nurses at the same hospital she trained & taught at 60 yrs before were her students, now taking care of & loving us as family, since we were there so often for her to be drained. All my life I was her girl, but she overtime had became my girl, too! She died in the hospital in a room next to her best friend of 50 yrs! 2 weeks before, they’d seen each other in the karaoke room & after surgery, my mom, while still on a gurney, sang the song, Downtown & that’s when she saw her best friend & they blew each other kisses! They both had cateracts...& thought each other looked wonderful! Now...I can’t help but think they were looking at each other’s souls! For they were both LOVE! Wonderful strong loving women I’ve been blessed to know! What a great gift to have participated in their lives! ♥️🌹🌿
@Knife Knight - And thank you for tuning in to watch these films. And I'm not sure if you saw it, but we actually released a film a few weeks back called 'Be Kind' - if you haven't seen it yet, check it out :). Keep tuned in right here Dirk, we've got so much more to still share in weeks and months ahead. Justine.
What a wonderful channel. Right from the start, the women were my age with my values. They weren’t half my age, living their dreams. They were ones I could sit with a cup of tea and chat. Thank you for this channel. I want to add that this video is like being in a church. I so much want to be buried with my trees surrounding me, loving me and holding me in their arms. I only hope that this will happen.
@Beth P - It really makes us smile to know that you can come to these stories for a regular dose of hope and inspiration. It's great to have you on this journey with us Beth x
I’m not afraid to die but I’m not fond of the thought of suffering beforehand. I just hope when it’s my time, I can be gracious about it since we will all die at some point. I’m grateful for my faith in Christ which always sustains me no matter what I go through.
Thank you so much for this beautiful & meaningful video. Life is impermanent & death means giving back to our mother nature without costing anything... I hope I guess it ryt... 🌷🌳....
I lost my father when he was 54 and I was 25, I had tumors at a very young age and then cancer, I went through a lot but I'm still here, I'm still alive. And what I would like to say to you all is :do not be afraid of death. Death is there to remind us that the time we have is not unlimited, so we have to celebrate life every single day, trying to pursue our dreams and remain true to ourselves. Let's reconnect with our spirit, with Nature, with all living creatures, and please let's all be kind to ourselves and to the world. Let's spread love...love is so healing guys, so fulfilling. Let's slow down and spread light and hope and beauty all around us. Death is only an illusion, love is real.
I lived in this house that I loved so much for 13 years of my life and i always thought that if I died I wanted to be buried there in the 5 acres of wilderness without costing my family much to bury me . But life takes you different places and here I am still alive and in another state living in an urban block wishing to go back to the country one day. I have the hope of the second coming because without that what hope is there left to hold on to?
@fredbastian - Just as you say, life takes twists and turns. We have filmed with many people, living in big urban city centres, who have slowly, over time, found ways to connect with nature, to live a more simple life, have found their passion and purpose. Find ways to embrace 'the country' that surrounds in small ways every day. Big warm hug to you x
@Nash Suleiman- Thanks for your beautiful note, and we're glad that you've found our channel and are enjoying the stories. Keep tuned in - we have so much more to still share. Sending you much love from across the seas in South Africa. Justine x
My parents’ bodies after death were taken from us, embalmed, encased and buried. The process was devoid of meaning. This giving back to the earth is sacred.
What a beautiful film! Everything is so perfect: the filming, the contents. It is so inspiring, so in keeping with my love of living in the present moment.
This is enlightening however, knowing the very fact of being immortal, one got to be conscious of why he/she was created and where we go after passing on and question whether we are prepared for the hereafter. It's mentioned in the holy book that this life is only a path to the hereafter (Eternity). ALLAH revealed to us the guidelines to Paradise and hell. And gave each person the will to choose.
About two years ago I started making my wife and kids aware of my desire for a shroud burial. Some cemeteries do not allow this, but there are a growing number that do. In actuality, once I'm dead, I'm no longer part of the decision and they can dispose of my remains how they want. My remains will be oblivious to their disposal. Funerals are for the living. I have escaped accidental death at least 6 times in my life. It has changed the way I look at things. When you've been to the edge and thought that, "this is it, I'm dead" and then survive, it changes you. When it happens multiple times, it gives you a perspective on mortality which is different than that of a lot of people. I have no fear of death. What comes before, however, does concern me a little. I can't know until faced with it again, but when the final curtain is drawn, I will again probably try to survive, but if it really is the end, it's not as if I will have a choice.
It's so wonderful to have you here, as part of our little community of people who are all trying, in our own way, to make this world a better place to be 💚
I discovered this channel with great happiness, as it makes me smile with emotion, feeling and thinking everything at the same time. It is one of my favorite channels, wonderful. Thank you very much!
@claudia de angelis - Thanks Claudia. We're so glad that these films stir up so much emotion inside you. Keep tuned in here - still so much more to share x
@Linda Wilson - Welcome to our little online community. And you've got a lot of 'binge watching' to do with over 150 films in this series so far. And still so much more to come, so keep tuned in 💚
As a 75 year old man I watched this and thought all three of these ladies are beautiful women and beautiful souls.
We are all beautiful souls we just don't recognise that inner being, let Light and Love shine forth where dwelleth the silent One and make it manifest.
I can’t get through a single episode without crying. They are all so beautifully done. Bravo.
@Scott Young - Thanks for allowing these stories to touch your heart x
Be present. Live in the moment. Tomorrow is promised to no one.
We need to enjoy today and this moment:)

The most important question one should ask self "Did I love well"? My answer, "YES"
If someone asked me what will you give back to Earth? I honestly be lost for an answer. Because Earth just gives gives gives - the food the beauty the day the night my body my mind my spirit all these and more are gifts from the Earth. And I, what do I do; I just take take and take! The Earth is incredibly unselfish. I get clear display of this unselfihness in all animals, all trees, every flower, every drop of water that sustains me.

Thought provoking. Can associate myself with the "giving back to the earth" concept .. .. .. .. ..
I’m not afraid to die but I’m not fond of the thought of suffering beforehand. I just hope when it’s my time, I can be gracious about it since we will all die at some point. I’m grateful for my faith in Christ which always sustains me no matter what I go through.
Thank you for sharing your deep thoughts and wishes. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I did not have my Son embalmed and I plant a tree every year for him 🤍🙏 This was so inspiring

Wow....
Thank you so much for this beautiful & meaningful video. Life is impermanent & death means giving back to our mother nature without costing anything... I hope I guess it ryt... 🌷🌳....

❤️❤️❤️
I lost my father when he was 54 and I was 25, I had tumors at a very young age and then cancer, I went through a lot but I'm still here, I'm still alive.
And what I would like to say to you all is :do not be afraid of death. Death is there to remind us that the time we have is not unlimited, so we have to celebrate life every single day, trying to pursue our dreams and remain true to ourselves.
Let's reconnect with our spirit, with Nature, with all living creatures, and please let's all be kind to ourselves and to the world. Let's spread love...love is so healing guys, so fulfilling. Let's slow down and spread light and hope and beauty all around us.
Death is only an illusion, love is real.
I lived in this house that I loved so much for 13 years of my life and i always thought that if I died I wanted to be buried there in the 5 acres of wilderness without costing my family much to bury me . But life takes you different places and here I am still alive and in another state living in an urban block wishing to go back to the country one day. I have the hope of the second coming because without that what hope is there left to hold on to?
@fredbastian - Just as you say, life takes twists and turns. We have filmed with many people, living in big urban city centres, who have slowly, over time, found ways to connect with nature, to live a more simple life, have found their passion and purpose. Find ways to embrace 'the country' that surrounds in small ways every day. Big warm hug to you x
I feel so happy that I've come across this channel, and got exposed to these great stories and experiences and faces behind them. Keep it up guys.
@Nash Suleiman- Thanks for your beautiful note, and we're glad that you've found our channel and are enjoying the stories. Keep tuned in - we have so much more to still share. Sending you much love from across the seas in South Africa. Justine x
My parents’ bodies after death were taken from us, embalmed, encased and buried. The process was devoid of meaning. This giving back to the earth is sacred.

Pure therapy
Loved every second of it
beautiful gem

What a beautiful film! Everything is so perfect: the filming, the contents. It is so inspiring, so in keeping with my love of living in the present moment.
💚
Thank you so much for this video! It really helps me to go through a very hard time of my life. There’s so much light in it!
Glad it was helpful, and that this story found you at a time when you needed it most!
Big hugs to you for the road ahead. Justine and Michael. 💚
Amazing concept, amazing video!
This is enlightening however, knowing the very fact of being immortal, one got to be conscious of why he/she was created and where we go after passing on and question whether we are prepared for the hereafter. It's mentioned in the holy book that this life is only a path to the hereafter (Eternity). ALLAH revealed to us the guidelines to Paradise and hell. And gave each person the will to choose.
Thanks for sharing your beliefs with us. 💚
About two years ago I started making my wife and kids aware of my desire for a shroud burial. Some cemeteries do not allow this, but there are a growing number that do. In actuality, once I'm dead, I'm no longer part of the decision and they can dispose of my remains how they want. My remains will be oblivious to their disposal. Funerals are for the living.
I have escaped accidental death at least 6 times in my life. It has changed the way I look at things. When you've been to the edge and thought that, "this is it, I'm dead" and then survive, it changes you. When it happens multiple times, it gives you a perspective on mortality which is different than that of a lot of people. I have no fear of death. What comes before, however, does concern me a little.
I can't know until faced with it again, but when the final curtain is drawn, I will again probably try to survive, but if it really is the end, it's not as if I will have a choice.
Today I subscribed this channel I feel sad why I didn't find early
But now I m happy 😁

Thank you for joining - we really appreciate the support. Every film you watch really supports us on our journey. Thank you.
I find the title rather strange. There are many more ways of giving back to earth than just the dead!
@pradeep Nishad - Absolutely agree with you. All through life, and even in death...
So beautiful! Thank for sharing and I agree we should give our bodies back to Earth! 💚
Death always motivates me to do more.... And that's the beauty of death
Great to hear. To live well you have to be ok with dying.
Thanks for watching so many of our little films.
Really beautiful ending
Thank you for watching, Pat and Sally. Kind wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Me enterrem embaixo de uma árvore, sem caixas, num lugar com paisagem bonita. Obrigada.
Flores é uma boa ideia. 🤍
May this become your reality! Hugs to you x

I want a natural burial but I don't know where or how to plan it. I want to return to the earth to me that is eternal life.
Earth is one BIG organic garden if you like to think of that way and we all help it when we leave. Great to see more New Zealand scenery aswell Thanks
