I’ve had pretty vivid recollections of what I believe to be my past life. It would be amazing to have a forum to share those thoughts with others, without feeling judged or ridiculed!

“Remember”, only because so many are so quick to judge. I’ve had recurring dreams for years...vivid dreams of a specific event. Dreams with extraordinary detail that I had no idea of until I read about the event many years later. Dreams with details so specific that I know I didn’t read them somewhere or dream them up but I read the story around the event much later and was shocked when the details I knew were spelled out. Little connections that I can’t explain away. It’s really weird, but it’s there. Maybe it’s reincarnation, maybe it’s souls crossing paths, maybe it’s all bunk...but I’m curious and I’ve seen too much in my life to write it off as fiction.

I know pub songs I never heard as a kid...songs I heard in my dreams...I knew them note for note in my very being...songs that make me cry to this day. It’s weird, and I have no explaination for it, other than the idea that, perhaps, our souls return to this world after they pass.

of having to do all this all over again.

I did have an odd dream once, that left me perplexed. Afterwards, I looked up a word in it that I hadn't known -- it was in another language. And it involved something that would have happened hundreds of years ago.

Weird.

Like I said elsewhere, maybe it’s not reincarnation as much as our souls passing and interacting with souls from the past....I guess there’s no way of knowing! But you’re spot on, going through this world once is enough!

Hope you are well pnwmon!

When I was a child, we were flying to a destination and made a connection in a Hub city...my mother still tells the story of me being inconsolable after we landed and thought I was just being a bratty child. When I made a flight recently that connected in that same city, the first time I’d been there since I was a kid...I got off the plane with an overwhelming sense of foreboding and was so nauseated I puked. My mom, who I had texted to tell her I had made my connection, sent me a text and laughed, reminding me of my prior experience in that airport as a child. Maybe I’m full of crap, but I swear I never want to go back there, and I’ve actively avoided connecting there on flights since then, and that just happened last summer.

Years ago I took a class about finding past lives. The assignment was to ask a question about ourselves and look for the answer in a past life. My question was why am I afraid to be pretty. One night I decided to look into an imaginary mirror. What I saw was such a shock I was literally kicked in the gut. I saw a young boy, absolutely beautiful, forced to live in a male brothel. The problem was that everybody wanted him but no one loved him. And that was why I wouldn't let myself be beautiful.

and I definitely lately know that something is going on that we can't tap into (since we use only 10% of our brains nothing is out of the question). This is not the politician, but the psychic.

He uses a technique that is known to be fraudulent: basically he throws out broad statements, letters and names, and waits for people to respond.
Please read up on it. He is (or was, I don't know if he's still airing) a scam artist.

It is about a spiritual master who died and how the heads of Tibetan religion ask his best and longest disciple to find the master's reincarnated child. Even the Dalai Lama is in it for a brief moment asking this monk to find the child.

Tibetan monks have ways of finding ad spiritual master's reincarnated child. They use astrology and other ways to find out where the child should be living. And they use the master's prayer beads and other items that the master had while he was alive, (like a bell and a drum that the child must identify when placed with similar items). For example they would lay out 3 drums and the child would have to identify which one was his from his previous life as the master

There is a discourse explaining reincarnation. Then it is time for the experiment.


This is a group experiment.

There is a volunteer who sits with a blue light facing them. Then 3 pieces of music is played to evoke emotions and the participants in the audience can see the effects upon the volunteer's facial features change, and sometimes the clothes as well.

If there is an Rosicrucian affiliated body near you, you should check it out. In Dallas we try and do this once a year. We LOVE it!!!
