What were his health challenges? Depending on what they were, they could be past life related.
I'm going to guess too that he showed an interest in the military, which is what prompted the outfit and gun as gifts? That combined with the drill like playing, it could be a strong indicator of a...
@SeaAndSky I am interested in the in family thing too.. I thought from my own experience here, that same family incarnations in the western world were unique, but LesserWatch ran some data analysis here and it turns out there's quite common, also as expressed through Carol's work too.
I was...
You're absolutely right. We're so embeded in ego, emotion and incarnation itself, we often miss what was meant for us as guidence. The porocess of learning and awakening often happens when one is trully ready to let go.
Most people resist this, because they are so attatched to their identities...
I admit I'm not that familiar with the Urantia book, but it has been very interesting learning about it with you and reading your personal journey with it and I think you for sharing it with us.
This is me throwing this out there, but I would avoid looking at things in terms of hierachy. I'm...
Chuck,
That is quite a lot of well done research and welcome to the forum!
I started my own research back in 2006 and have been at it ever since. I had a pretty lengthy thread, but it was more like a scrapbook than an actual story, so I hid it from forum visibility and I wanted to rewrite it...
I just like the, as it is, simplicity of the older gospels. However yes, there is a certain beauty to the NT. Honestly though, I haven't spent much time with it. Not for any particular reason, just that I grew up with it and the older books have always held an interest for me.
Unless you had very fundamentalist or old school catholic back ground or up bringing, I'm not surprised. The bible touches on it briefly, but anything that tended to shun God or Jesus was heavily leaned on as a symbol of evil and wickedness through which they used to use as contrast to glorify...
both passages speak to different things. *insert chin beard stroking emoji*
What's your take on them or what speaks to you? The language is definitely verbose and would take a keen eye or good grounding to be able to sort of parse through it all.
On the second one though, are you interested in...
That's why I've always been a big fan of Jesus. One of his core teachings actually was that in knowing one's self, one can know God / the source.
Specifically what he said is
The full quote is
Jesus' actual teachings show a great disdain for organized religion and hierarchies that seek to...
I get what you're saying :) and you can be totally right! But I think the difference in where I'm seeing it is, each person and the work they choose to do in their present life, is something they decided to and doesn't equally apply to everyone else.
So you are correct, that possibly for...
Galaxy, I tend to attack memories and dreams and things very scientifically and from your glimpse you posted in your opening post, two things stand out to me and one is that you're trying to identify the dress.
Trying to identify something seen in a dream or vision and correlating it with a...
You're kind of on the right path.
Sometimes though, trauma is just an unfortunate side effect of living in this "reality" and it encodes itself as part of of the individuals energy pattern and can reappear in many ways in the next life.
That's also why many (but not all) people who remember...
I've always been a bag advocate for one reason or another! Mainly as there's too much I have to carry or want to .. whether if it was when my son was younger and I needed to pack for a day out or simply carrying personal items from home into the office or back again. I'd like to get back to...
Both Anderson and Arbuckle also portrayed women. What gets me about Arbuckle is that this depiction is respectful or at least accurate. Not "drag" or played for laughs, like you would see in a 3 stooges film (a frilly dress and mop for hair). I read Arbuckle never used his weight for a gag...
I've been really busy with work lately and to relax, I just started watching some old silent movies from the early 20th century. I'm sure I have seen these in the past but for some reason it really struck me that Fatty Arbuckle really reminded me of somebody I knew.
I thought maybe he might be...
Having been researching my own FPLs for over 20 years now, here's my opinion.
First and foremost, famous or not, past lives should be a way of learning about ourselves for the purposes of personal and spiritual growth. At the least, they should serve as proof of the reality of our connectedness...
I just wanted to talk again about the process of reincarnation. If anything, I hope that my research shows that we are continuous; that is to say, we're the same person / spirit / soul that continues from life to life. We keep growing in wisdom, maturity and spirituality based on the sum of our...
@SeaAndSky I quite agree with you!
Sort of being an empty nester now, I feel that this is quite similar to when I was younger and didn't have kids or was married (I'm divorced now). Everything seems like a blank slate and I need to figure out what to fill my time with.
And now, rather than...
