If reincarnation is true then I must come from a long line of boring sobs, cause I don't remember a bit of it.
Look on the bright side, that probably means you don't have any bad karma to work out!
Personally, I feel I have a heavy karmic debt to work off in this lifetime. That keeps me focused on doing the right thing. Don't want to have to do this all over again. it's tiring.
God imagine if reincarnation was like ground hog day. The same thing over and over. :cry:
Interesting concept though. You have to re-live your life over and over, until you finally get it "right".
Whatever "right" may be. I might need a few more goes....
Maybe on a certain level you do. Gut-feelings and hunches might cause you to take a course of action that you wouldn't expect. A warning of a previous mistake, making your decisions for you?What I think is unfair is that you can't remember what you did the last times to cause you to come back.
I think may be people feeling they were in the wrong body was because they had been that sex in a previous life.
Amazing that AB - never heard of this before.We‘ve all heard about NDEs but I’ve noticed that dotted around the internet are an increasing number of accounts of PBE - Pre-Birth Experience.
This subject has a particular relevance for me and I’ve mentioned somewhere among these threads my own experience of this. For the sake of the new starters I’ll bore you again…
This is one of my first childhood memories and I mean memory as opposed to a dream. Over the years, it’s floated, drifted away and then resurfaced to the front of my mind as if I’ve subconsciously told myself never to forget this crucial event in my ‘life’.
It’s worth mentioning that my first recollection comes around the age of 3 or 4. We only had a black and white television and I didn’t make my first visit to the cinema until some years later. The imagery I remember in vivid colour.
I am in space looking down on Earth. Glorious cloud covered blue ball with the sun in a position where part of the earth was going into darkness. Beside me, on my right a vague figure which I took to be a benevolent guardian or mentor encouraged me to look closely. ‘You have to choose’, this figure said as little flashes of light pinged off in various locations across the globe. ‘These are all the lives available to you. Before you choose, you can see what that life will be’. I chose a pinprick of light and saw all that would be. I’d didn’t like that and a light flashed in the UK. I asked to be shown that and said ‘I’d like that one’. So I chose all this I’m going through now and it’s part of the whole learning process.
The funny thing is, a lot of people out there are saying the same thing.
I think Dr Stevenson mentioned some Indian children saying that pre birth they were floating amongst the trees and the clouds prior to rebirth, but this was in conjunction with reincarnation, from the sounds of it you may be first timerWe‘ve all heard about NDEs but I’ve noticed that dotted around the internet are an increasing number of accounts of PBE - Pre-Birth Experience.

Nevertheless its a wonderful memory to haveWell I can’t really speculate on that and it would be wrong of me to try and fill out more detail or elaborate much beyond what I’ve already said.
One of my favourite sayings…. If you want to know what God thinks of money, look at the people he gives it to.Maybe I will come back as a rich person.
Then again are rich people happy ?
I don’t know, but I would sure like to give a try.
I would be a very happy rich person.Maybe I will come back as a rich person.
Then again are rich people happy ?
I don’t know, but I would sure like to give a try.
Personally I dont know, but as Spike Milligan once said "All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy".I would be a very happy rich person.
Interesting question. The people I have met that claim they are reincarnated either claim they were famous in a past life or they were native and in this life are of european desent. I don't think people necessarily always claim to be the same ethnicity.Can anyone explain the theory of reincarnation, as I understand it, when you die you are reincarnated into a new persona.
Question:...do you get to choose who you become or is it left to chance, if so why is it that people who claim to remember past lives are always of the same ethnisitty, ie, white people never seem to come back as black, asian, or oriental.
Amongst many other examples, so do some choose to be alcoholics, or heroin addicts or blown up in some war, or shot or for women, raped?There are a lot of stories about reincarnation and I think that is what most of it is. I believe we get to choose, my analagy is that before we incarnate we sit around a table with a map we have drawn of the life experiences we want.
I wonder about the theory that we spend our lives with the same people, lifetime after lifetime.Amongst many other examples, so do some choose to be alcoholics, or heroin addicts or blown up in some war, or shot or for women, raped?
Reincarnation must include some type of pay back for previous lives actions both good and bad which we are unaware in this this life. In other words, karma.
As an example, what would a paedophile be reincarnated as and then suffer? Horrible though it may read, maybe the same as they had done to others in previous lives but are unaware of having done that in previous lives, in this life?
Reincarnation and karma is the only thing that explains suffering of seemingly, what we would call, innocent people in this world.
Reincarnation in the main comes from the Vedas. A huge library of books written 5000 years ago in India in Sanskrit.Reading on the internet, it seems people can go through several reincarnations until they resolve their unfinished business.
My problem with reincarnation is what you are going to come back as ?
Are you coming back as human or animal, or male or female, or plant?
I always can use money so I am hoping for a rich person.
Money is not evil but useful !
