I have the book "On Death and Dying" which lists them- and you've got three of the five. They are, in order: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. You can read more about it here: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/869597/the_five_stages_of_death.html They even reference the book I mentioned. I was fortunate enough to have an open-minded faculty at my university- and we had a class called "The Sociology of Death". It was pretty cool- even when the Coroner came in with a slide show of autopsies. At least we didn't have to go to the morgue and actually watch an autopsy (I think I would have barfed LOL). I love how BC is delving into all these different levels of life and after-life. It's amazing. I can't wait to see how this turns out- and I can't wait to see if this gets printed in a Trade Paperback style book ^_^ (One can hope!!) MeOw! >^..^< @RW, there are five steps.

The first step is denial, then later (not in order) is anger, bargaining, etc. I can’t remember where I read it, but someone listed out the emotions when encountering death.

And suddenly they realize they're not going to die happy. I don't think any spirit would fail to realize that they were dead. But if they did, I can understand why they wouldn't want to believe it; for the same reason that nobody wants to die in the first place. The same reason nobody wants to hear the Lady's ideas... Or maybe they're just afraid of change, afraid of leaving behind the familiar world they knew, the things they loved and cherished. It would have to be a shock, and difficult to accept, the fact that you can't go on living your life anymore. Even if it turns out to be welcome, people tend to value the familiar more than the good.

It's coming to that realisation that generates the crisis.

Why would someone have an aversion to being dead? Did they think they were going to live forever? I never understand when spirits refuse to belive they’re dead.
