Do you remember your past lives?

[SparklyJadeFawn]

I remember two of mine.

I was just in a yoga class and a man there was telling me that he remembers all of his past lives.

I think it's so so interesting!

I have a memory of another past life. Again I can't be one hundred percent sure it happened, but I have a strong memory of it

i can't bring myself to write it. As it upsets me

I did something in that life that caused pain and hurt to someone else .

what I did wasn't that bad, but I made someone else angry, who in turn caused huge pain and hurt to someone else.

I still feel really terribly upset when I think about it. Which is interesting in a way

Wow amazing.

Did she remember where she lived with the other mum?

I’m sure I had a past life as a woman in a large house. I have a strong recollection of a barren, windswept garden where I’m looking out over it and feel really sad. Crows are cawing and it’s cold and bleak.

Also, despite being from rural wales I feel incredibly at home in London and visit as much as possible

I guess that’s my point - why don’t we just remember them all the time? Why do we have to be in a deep meditative state or hypnotised or regressed?

If we’d all experienced a past life, then surely the chances are that we could remember them as hoc?

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Lack of proof of past lives doesn't mean they aren't a reality.
Lack of a mechanism known to science doesn't mean something can't happen.
It just means that science can't answer one way or another.

We dont remember it all, Because in spiritual books and teachings it says that when we come into each life we agree to have 'a veil of forgetfulness' put over us.

We agree to not remember everything that's happened before.

So that we can fully experience and be present in each life. We learn and experience more that way by being fully present in each life.

However our consciousness is strong and some memories and awareness leak through

That is also why they say that young children remember past lives more clearly for a short time, as they have recently come from another life and they remember more. The older they get and the more they get into this physical life, they forget the others.

No, she didn't say where they were. First she asked where the 'mummy before you' is. She described her physical appearance when I asked who she meant and said that there was some kind of crash and fire and told me "I had to leave her. I don't know what happened to her. Where is she?" She was kind of upset so I didn't keep bringing it up although it was weird and interesting.

I was anti-reincarnation - it was just something I thought ridiculous, but I am open to that now.

Wow. Children are so interesting.

Could I interest some of you in new clothes I made for an emporor in a past life?

Some magic beans maybe?

I was an upper middle class woman in the late Victorian / Edwardian era. Had a terrible marriage - I was awful to him and bullied and blackmailed him with hysterics and my poor health. I might have been addicted to laudanum.

I was also heavily involved in the ritual magic/occult scene, possibly the Golden Dawn as a minor participant (I was not a name known to history). I metaphorically "got my fingers burnt" dabbling and this life I know I must not get involved in occult ritual practice. So I stick to studying only, no practice.

If we can inherit physical characteristics from our ancestors, maybe we can inherit memories.

The former are genetically encoded in DNA, we know how that works. Memories aren't, they're stored in each of our brains. There's no mechanism for them to survive after our deaths - only what other people remember of us and what we've written or created.

I'll write about my upsetting past life as all past lives are interesting.

When I was in my twenties in this life, I met a man in my local town. He was a bit cold and cruel.

I looked into his eyes and all of a sudden, memories of me and him in a past life flooded back. Loads of memories came flooding back over me

In the other life I was married to him. I was a lot younger than him, I was around 20 and he was 40. It had been an arranged marriage for wealth. I hadn't had a choice in the marriage . I was made to do it.

I wasn't attacted to him at all and I often rejected his advances in the marriage. I felt trapped in the marriage. But divorce wasn't an option. You were trapped for life

I lived in a big house and a man my age worked outside the house there doing something. Seemed to be like a security guard?

Me and him fell for each other and we began having an affair.

My husband found out and caught us, and he had the man killed.

It was a time long ago, when people would just be killed for crimes. I remember being terribly upset by what happened

I was killed by a bus

No. Because I didn't t have any.

It was a very odd experience and I never had another experience like it. I can still remember how everything went slow motion almost like a car accident or something. We just 'locked' eyes but without any hostility more like total recognition.

This person was harmful to me in the past with a real casual cruelty. Interestingly I could still see a shadow of who they were then in who they are today but obviously they aren't the same. It's a difficult thing to describe and as I said it was a one off.

I remember being in deep grief and shock hearing the crowd around me baying for my son to be killed, and watching him pass with the cross bearing down on him, and being powerless to help him. It was a searing flashing glimpse- I was Mary and my son was Jesus

This is hurting my head and I’m giving it too much thought but, surely that’s only logical if you assume everyone living now has had a past life. What if this life is their first life?

And would age come into it too? A 99 year old would go to their next life a lot sooner than a 4 year old for example? Or people that die young in past lives, they don’t spend a lot of time in their previous life before moving to the next.

2 different things I’ve always strongly believed since I was a small child.
1). I was previously a witch and was drowned for it.
2) I was a maid in a stately home in the Victorian era. I’d ran from my violent and abusive family and felt safe in the house I worked it. Really enjoyed it actually. But my mum found me. I woke up to her sat on my pillow and tried to run from her. As a small child I often saw this woman sat on my pillow if I was really poorly. Freaked me out so much. I’d run and scream. Pretty sure if I saw the woman in real life I’d recognise her.

We agree to not remember everything that's happened before.

I’m afraid I wholeheartedly disagree with you.

We cannot agree to forget that which we don’t know. Where does this ‘agreement’ take place? With whom - who instructs us to forget? A ‘pre-next life’ briefing?

Just flashes.
I was Icelandic, female not poor, but not rich. I remember feeding livestock.
I can remember my brown dress, the feel of it.
I was a nun, it must have been a calling, because I was very happy.
I am trying to research my death by drowning at the edge of a river, I was about 13, Edwardian times, possibly late Victorian, I looked pretty much as I did at 13 in this life. I had a sister called Maud who had a bull dog type face, who was quite a bit older and engaged. I remember my navy wool skirt and a boater.

For the naysayers, there are many religions that believe in past lives. Probably more believers than non.

I got insanely stoned once on THC (it was intended as being for medicinal purposes and was actually more than once) but this particular time I had this experience like I was morphing through several lives. Some were like a transitional state (is all I can think to call it) where I was in earth, but alive in earth/mud, but not in a bad way - I was growing in it. I had a bit of ancient time life, in a dusty place, maybe Egyptian but I'm not sure. And then I was feeling like an old woman on her deathbed comforting her adult son that she'd had a good life and he'd made her proud. I was actually talking to my majorly freaked out husband 🤣 But I felt pretty happy in all of them.

Weird fucking night that was.

I've laid off it since 😆

Should you not be in heaven?

So why do some people have their first life now? Where does it come from?
What if you're a Holocaust victim, do you come back as something better eg a rich white man in the UK or something?

Indeed. She's the Queen of Heaven.

Mate, I don’t know! I was just musing, it’s not that deep 😂
