Can You Benefit From
Knowing About Your Past Life?
The idea of reincarnation – that you had a past life, or several - is an
ancient one, and one that is found on every corner of the earth: Japanese,
Australian aborigines, Africans, modern Wiccans and many other New Age
religions, all believe that you have a past life, and that your past life
influence who and what you are today.
Your health, your mental wellbeing, and your social interactions are
impacted by each past life. For this reason, it is often a good idea to
‘know thyself’ - to meet who you were in a past life, settle the demons
that may be left over, and to integrate all the strengths you've
accumulated over time so that you may be a stronger person now and in
future lives.
How do we come to know if we really have had many a past life? It's not
possible in a conscious state but dreams and memories can give us a hint.
Most schools of thought believe that every one has a past life though
considering the rapidly increasing population there may be some new souls
around as well. There can be other signs that can alert you to the
existence to a past life:
* A strong love or attraction to some culture that you were not exposed to
and that makes no sense in your current life. If you love Mesopotamian
art, for instance, you may have a past life from that region in the era
you find interesting. Learn more about the art that interests you; if it
all comes from a distinct and relatively small time period, that's a
pretty good indication that there's something there.
* You may feel strongly about an incident in history like the American
Revolution for instance. May be you feel very strongly because you have
been a part of the movement.
* Certain physical or psychological issues and problems that you cannot
explain or give logical reasons for its existence may be linked to what
your past life was.
Don't just merely go by these points since these do not prove that you had
a past life recall. Instead search for more clues like things that you
really love without reason and some patterns that make sense. These clues
will help you to unravel your past life and what it would have been like.
Self hypnosis or hypnosis by a past life regression therapist may also
yield great results in past life regression. These regression therapists
hypnotize you to help you delve into your deep subconscious memories.
If you decide to use self hypnosis to access your past life yourself, look
for a technique that doubles as a deep relaxation method. Try to work with
this technique for a while before using it for your regression.
If you are worried about your safety, no significant matter can disturb
you while in process. You will only recall your past life through the
regression and you might possibly experience back what happened in your
past life but only in a vivid pictures or shadows.
As you begin to recall the past life memories, you will be able to
distinguish the good ones from the bad ones through the after-results.
Good memories usually trigger good feelings while bad memories irritate
your feelings causing you to feel bad. When you wake up, you will notice
that it feels like you just had a bad dream. This means that you had a bad
life in the past. Do not think that recalling unpleasant memories are bad
for you; this is actually your key to know your past life.
You do not have to experience all these indicators; even just one of these
could be enough to indicate that you have a past life that you may want to
explore and discover for your own advantage. Start by looking for strange
patterns or odd things in your life that you find hard to connect to or
explain and then try to link it to your past life.
Self-hypnosis is a good way to tap into past life experiences through life
regression that takes you back to what occurred before infancy and the
womb. You can also be hypnotized by specialists in past life regression
where a form of deep hypnotic trances are induced to get you to remember
memories of a past life that subconsciously exist in your mind, even now.
Look for a technique of self hypnosis that involves a deep relaxation
technique before trying self hypnosis for your regression.
From a safety point of view, there is essentially nothing you need to
worry about because you'll simply be experiencing a vivid recollection of
a past life experience or experiences. In fact, rather than experiencing
an intense recollection, you may experience nothing more than a few
feelings.
Depending on whether they were good feelings or bad feelings, you will
wake up the same as from a dream or nightmare, whichever the case may be.
Be mindful that unpleasant memories are just a part of the regression
experience, as much so as the pleasant ones are.
Remembering past life experiences is an important part of moving on with
your present life. Once you have remembered, your subconscious mind is no
longer suppressing these feelings and you can understand and accept what
happened in the a past life to give you a more positive outlook in your
present life.
Those who are familiar with the theory of karma, will know that it is
believed that when one has led a good live and done good things, then you
will in turn receive good in this life and in future lives, unless of
course you change into a bad person at some point. In that case, rather
than being blessed with goodness, you can expect to be surrounded by
unpleasant events until such time that your karma once again becomes
balanced.
This interpretation causes confusion with many people that believe we are
not punished in future lives or destined to live that way forever. They
think that each new life is to do the things over again, that we may not
have done right before. Memories from a previous life are meant to allow
you to live in the present, once you have acknowledged them, recognized
them and learned from them.
All you really need to do is to remember your past life and just move on.
The suppression of the past life memories is the cause of all the
problems. Once there is an acceptance and understanding about all the
experiences in your past life you can move on and understand the present
life with a fresh perspective.
Most people believe in the principle of Karma which says that every action
has a reaction. Hence kind and positive acts translate to good karma and
are rewarded in future lives while the bad acts are punished in the future
lives. People who are bad keep getting problems to improve and these
problems only stop when they atone for all their misdeeds.
However these days people don't agree with this kind of a theory since
they believe that no one needs to suffer because of a past life. Each life
that we live is an opportunity to turn a new leaf and do good deeds. What
we need to understand is that we are not bad people and we can always
forgive ourselves for our bad deeds and become good.
Ever since the beginning of time, people have believed in reincarnation.
Even now in modern times reincarnation continues to find a place in many
religions, whether it's the Japanese, the Chinese, the Africans, or even
the aborigines of Australia. Even many new age religions believe in the
concept of having lived previous lives, and that a past life can have a
significant influence on one's present life.
Health, mental wellbeing, and social interactions can be linked to past
life experiences, accumulating through each past life. By finding out
about who you were in a past life, you may be able to better understand
your fears, weaknesses and strengths to make you a stronger and better
person in your present life, as well as future lives.
When you have disturbing dreams that seem like real life, but don't fit
into any experiences you have ever had, it could be from a buried
subconscious memory of one of your a past life. People who think
reincarnation is possible also believe that everybody is a reincarnated
soul, but that some are older souls, while some are newer souls that are
just recycled into new bodies. Other signs of possible reincarnation
dreams:
* A romantic crush based on a different country or culture that you were
not exposed to and has no logical explanation in your current life could
be relating to a relationship from a past life. Interests in things that
you were not raised around or ancient cultures could indicate an era you
once lived in. If there is a tie to cultural and romantic dreams, art,
buildings and societies that don't fit your life today, it is possible you
existed in that period and region in a past life.
* Strong emotions about incidents in history that you have no personal
ties to could indicate you may have been involved on a personal level, in
a past life.
* Certain physical health issues may be linked to past life experiences
and some believe that, for example if you suffer migraines, you may have
suffered death in a previous life through a blow to the head. Others think
the same about psychological issues and fears that have no basis, but seem
almost instinctual, from the time you are born.
