Are those who have passed on waiting for you?

In your religious beliefs are the people who have passed away in a place where you will see them again? This question comes up often in my work as a counselor and I thought I would pass it along to you?

The answer is yes and no. They stay until they review all the things done in life and then move on. So if you die shortly after you could see them. PS:This is my point of view and is based on books read and experiences lived. For many is just rubish, so it's up to you if you read it or not.

I've heard something like this as well. That is, you would be able to meet loved ones for a short time. I believe that people go to the realm of the spiritual world which corresponds to depth of their love and heart. For this reason it may not be possible to be together with family and friends. Eventually, God's desire is that all these barriers be broken down, and that all can relate to each other freely and at any time, once all the chains and pain are released from the hearts of all people.

That is very much something that is a part of the beliefs that I have in my life. The reason that this is such a very important part of my life is because of the fact that I've had a lot of different loved ones that I have lost during the course of my life and believing that I will see them again after my life has come to an end is something that keeps me going at times. If it wasn't for having this belief, then I don't know that I would have been able to get through some of the very tough times that I've faced in my life.

In Islam yes, if they are Muslems too, we all will be gathered again in Paradise with family, loved ones, friends, etc.

The Bible talks a lot of about what happens when we die. I believe what it says.
