Right now, across the world, people are dying of starvation – many in silence, without dignity, without witness.

To die from starvation is to die slowly, often quietly, often forgotten. It is a death shaped not only by physical deprivation, but by energetic severance: from care, from nourishment, from the human web of reciprocity.

Starvation carries a unique signature of suffering.
It numbs. It silences. It isolates.
A gradual vanishing.

This collective work brings presence to that specific kind of departure.
Not to fix it. Not to dramatize it.
But to witness it fully, and in doing so, restore a field of coherence where there was absence; inhumane disconnection, severance.

This gathering is an act of field-based transmission.
Not to guide souls across.
But to hold a coherent structure through which the suffering, fear, and confusion surrounding these deaths may be soothed and transmuted.

We work through the transpersonal, not the personal. Not from identification, but from presence.

We open a field beyond time and space – what Tibetan teachings call simultaneous mind – and from that field, we offer clarity, comfort, and luminous coherence to all involved.

What we are doing here has no fixed name. It is not personal, but it is intimate. Not performative, but deeply participatory. It is an act of service, offered through the coherence of the field.

Whether you approach this as a ritual, a meditation, a prayer, or a transmission is up to you. What matters is the sincerity of your presence and the clarity of your intent.

We will attune to their terror and their numbness. The slow, drawn-out nature of starvation often includes disassociation, hopelessness, and internal silence. We will warm that silence with luminous attention.

We will include the field of those who watch others starve. Family members, aid workers, those who do not act, those who cannot act. We will also include the animal kin and other beings impacted by this suffering. We will extend compassion to all those involved.

This is not psychopomp work.
We are not crossing beings over.
We are clarifying the atmosphere – dissolving the residue of terror and abandonment that starvation leaves in its wake and follows these souls into their next phase. We are soothing, refining, and clarifying this karma through transmutation. We are honoring the indestructible essence of these beings.

This will be an intense space.
Many will arrive carrying grief, anger, helplessness, or historical pain. You do not need to leave that at the door – but we ask that you do not focus it into the space. This is not a space for personal trauma processing. It is not a place to act out or collapse.

It is a vessel.
A structure.
A temple of devotion, coherence, and compassion.

You may experience personal benefit – grief softening, deeper alignment, a felt sense of service, movement where there was freeze. While it may feel personal, the field serves the whole. Let any healing arise as a byproduct of your participation.

Those anchoring the space are trained to hold intensity.
Support will be available during and after if you need it.
You are not alone in this work.
