I can't perceive it as a game either, because IMO reincarnation is designed for learning experiences for individuals as well as the human race in general. We come back to learn different qualities, to work out problems we had with people in a past existence, and to learn with the balance of...
I love the way you express yourself, fiziwig (Shut up and peel those potatoes.), and I concur that the world is a perfect place for us humans to learn. As I said to nightrain1, "In our society war is inevitable and necessary because we have created it to be that way." We have chosen this world...
You're right nightrain1, in our society war is inevitable and necessary because we have created it to be. We are responsible for our world and we have created physical destruction as a means to settle disagreements. While I don't think it has to be that way, it is that way and we will have to...
You're right, Turthseeker, there IS a point to everyone's life and reincarnation supports that idea. Right now we are listening to religions, for example Christianity, who tell us Jesus will take responsibility for our lives, if we believe in him. Society has reinforced that lack of personal...
Excellent point, fiziwig. My concept of reincarnation extends well beyond the movie concept. Reincarnation to me means total responsibility. (There is no god, out there directing us. We pre-plan our incoming carnation, establishing our environment and the people we need to contact to work out...
The sad thing about all of this is the majority of people are so conditioned by their traditional religion that they will reject any evidence to support reincarnation. It is one of those - the sun revolves around the earth situations. Religion controlled that concept for centuries, but...
Rod, I enjoyed your logical discussion on the 'proof' of reincarnation. I agree with you that if more people like Dr. Ian Stevenson do research the probability of acceptance would be greater. It is too bad that our scientific community won't accept other researchers such as psychologist doing...
Six, you draw some interesting comparisons from two completely different sources to draw a conclusion. Because of the very doubtful nature of the Buddha information and the puzzle-like construction of your theory, I can't agree with your conclusion.
Like in the time of Jesus, in the time of...
I haven't been around much lately. I have expressed my opinion centered on this question over the years, and feel compelled to do it again.
IMO, we are all Life Energy, all a part of creation, or all One, or collectively we are what people refer to as God. We have created this world (and...
John, when she left the Territories, I lost contact with her for a few years. When I finally found her living in a new province, she told me she stopped soul traveling (that was also a big part of her experience during our sessions) and became a born-again. She told me she had turmoil in her...
Raj, you asked: "Why did she have the regression in the first place? What did she make of the experience at the time?"
She was first hypnotized to dispel her fear of the dentist. I met her in the same community in the Northwest Territories. I had a group of friends over one night and decided...
Raj, you asked: "I would like to ask you some questions about your client:
When she approached you, did she already have memories of her past life, whether occurring in waking state or dream state?
When you saw her, did you feel any attraction towards her?"
When I met Linda she had...
Raj, I would have to agree with you - that experiment would only indicate that physic ability exist. It is almost impossible to 'prove' this kind of stuff to people who 'know' it is not possible.
For what it is worth here is some of the information I received from the physic. Linda is the...
Raj, you stated, "1. You will need to prove that you have not influenced the "past life reader" in any way.
2. Your hypnosis of the woman, may have implanted false memories, and the "past life reader" has just picked those up. It would make sense, therefore, why both your accounts match.
3...
IMO DNA testing wouldn't be effective in determining past lives. DNA works on a physical level with the creation of new bodies (babies). The soul chooses a body to experience in independent of DNA - IMO. I think it is wishful thinking to find any correlation in past life bodies.
