I just got this News from The Monroe Institute

Rosalind McKnight - In Memoriam

"The TMI family was deeply saddened to learn that Rosalind (Rosie) McKnight made her transition from the physical on February 11, 2010. Rosie was an institution in and of herself, having worked closely with Bob Monroe for eleven years in the early Explorer program, and continuing her association with TMI through many years of enthusiastically-received presentations she made during Guidelines programs.

Many of her Explorer sessions are documented in Rosie's first book, Cosmic Journeys (1999); sessions in which significant concepts and applications later incorporated into the Gateway Voyage were introduced (e.g., resonant energy balloon, energy bar tool). Her communications with her "Invisible Helpers" were instrumental in leading Bob to design Guidelines as a residential graduate program.

Rosie was frequently described as an "angel" who blessed and graced the lives of everyone fortunate enough to find themselves in her presence. She will be keenly missed but her legacy will always continue as an integral and guiding force behind the vision and mission of TMI."

Thanks for posting this Lynda. I actually heard about it a few days ago from a friend but didn't think to make it known here. After reading Cosmic Journeys, I actually emailed back and forth with her a few times and she seemed like a genuinely sweet person. She will be missed I'm sure. She's one of those people I would have liked to meet in PMR.

As I have really come to internalize these principles, I'm not as saddened by death anymore and see it as a truly a transition. Many of us have listened to her Explorer sessions. In truth, you see, she has already been there many, many times. She's just there with her friends to stay for a while. It's not so sad. I wish her luck on her CONTINUING journey.

For those who haven't listened to it yet, I highly recommend Explorer session 32. She channels a couple different entities and it's amazing to see the shift in personality and voice that occurs with the different entities. It's hard to pass off as acting. The first, Alfonso Pincinelli, is hilarious. Far different from her normal sessions. Check it out.

Thanks for that recontexting Ramon~

I was myself wondering about the glum attitude. Some regrets I can see... sort of like leaving college, and everyone knows it will never be the same again and all that.

But sheesh!

I imagine she's about where I plan to be when my time comes:

Dancin' in the End Zone,
singin': "A-Doot! Doot! Doot!!!"

You're welcome Montana.

I certainly view death much differently now than I did about 5 or 10 years ago and yet, I understand the human emotion of being sad that you will no longer encounter that IUOC here on planet Earth while you continue your physical journey.
She was their family! They'll be sad when Tom dies too, as will most of us. Sad for ourselves that he's not sharing this particular experience with us anymore. On one hand I can see celebrating someone's transition and being happy for what they get to experience, but on the other hand, I miss my mom!
