Into the book
The grief experienced after a loss leads the mourner into the wilderness.
Staying there allows you to reflect on your relationships with loved ones, reflect on your life, and spend some quiet time slowly coming into contact with your emotions.
But people want to avoid that time.
Accompanying, as Allen Wolfelt puts it, means staying with the mourner in these moments of wilderness, without judgment, with genuine empathy, with the heart rather than the head.
A companion must be able to walk quietly alongside the person on the long journey of mourning.
---From the Translator's Note
As we open our hearts to the painful realities of others, challenging thoughts may creep up.
Can I really help this person? Could the pain of their loss be influencing my own? What would happen to me if I actually offered help? Our ability to recognize discomfort when facing hardship helps us avoid being overwhelmed by their pain, denying or underestimating their reality.
---From “01 Empathize with the suffering of others”
We hear things like, “Keep busy,” “Hang in there,” and “Find someone to meet.”
By following these stories that encourage mourning avoidance, mourners often travel back in time and space to find their old selves.
But the old self is gone forever.
Now, temporary wandering in the wilderness of sorrow is rather a familiar place.
Slowly, repeatedly, and with kind companions, the mourner can find new meaning and discover a new self.
---From “02 Dwell Together in the Wilderness of the Soul”
Confusion and confusion are times of waiting, times of paralysis, times when the world is not understood in the way it was before death.
Mourners may experience anxiety, excitement, restlessness, and persistent confusion.
Sometimes you have trouble getting things done.
Mourners often experience forgetfulness and may lose the pleasures of everyday life.

Publisher's Review
The death of a loved one is close to life.
After death, the family left behind experiences the greatest sorrow and pain in life.
They appear depressed, anxious, and confused, and have difficulty in their daily lives because they cannot let go of the dead person.
It's heartbreaking to see them like that, so I try to console them and give them advice, but the mourners don't accept it.
Have you ever felt helpless, unsure of how to comfort someone? If you have the courage to face your painful emotions, you can love and care for the bereaved in your own way, without being quick to worry or offer advice.
How to face the pain of loss
What takes priority over any special treatment technique or know-how is ‘accepting pain as it is with a compassionate heart.’
This book helps those who care for grieving people first understand the role and value of grief and pain.
It also presents 11 principles for accepting suffering as it is, from 'empathizing with the suffering of others, dwelling together in the wilderness of the soul, respecting the spiritual side, and listening with the heart' to 'learning from others, and always approaching with a new mind.'
Phrases that help heal the mind
The author shares pure insights by quoting the writings of spiritual masters, full of fresh and unique wisdom.
It also informs us of incorrect judgments made toward those in mourning and the correct way to compensate for them.
It also provides refreshing answers to questions that caregivers might have had.
So if you want to help someone who is grieving, become their companion!
