Past Lives - A Blast From The Past!
There are many things we can do in order to find out more about our past lives whether we believe in reincarnation or not. Interestingly enough though, the amount of people who believe in reincarnation far exceeds the number who don't. In fact, reincarnation forms the backbone of many religions with Hinduism and Buddhism being just two of them. For many who don;t have any spiritual connection, reincarnation offers a common sense approach to solving some of life's many mysteries.
Record Your Experiences
There are admittedly many ways through which we can find out more about past lives but perhaps the most effective means, is to keep a journal, writing down all your experiences, both significant and insignificant. When doing this, one should also acknowledge the importance of making notes with regards to the state of your emotions at the time of these experiences. This is essential as our emotions are a very reliable source of clues and by noting these feelings, one will be better equipped when it comes to the stage when you try to put all the pieces together.
Have you ever experienced deja vu? If so, how did it feel or more importantly, how did you feel about it? Search for clues in your present life from as early as you can remember, all the up until the stage where you are today. Here again, making a list can help provide further clues so you should try to list all your likes and dislikes with regard to various foods, religions and cultures, as well as anything else you can think of. Further to this, attempt to analyze yourself as a person as well in matters such as temperament, talents, fears, etc. Even something which may seem trivial such as a birthmark, can often provide you with further clues at a later stage.
Of course it goes without saying that one shouldn't overlook the value of dreams with regards to past life experiences. While it's often taken for granted by many that dreams can provide clues concerning the future, one should realize that the clues we get from dreams can also relate to the present as well as the past. For this reason it is highly recommended that you record your dream as best as you can by writing them down. Another common practice of those in search of knowledge regarding their past lives, is to suggest to themselves before falling asleep that they wish to recall memories from a past life. If after doing this you have a dream which you can remember, be sure to write down all the details as soon as you wake up.
Past Life Regression Therapy
If it's at all possible for you to go to a professional past life therapist, then don't hesitate. They will help you to interpret the information you receive when guiding you through a regression. Such therapists are trained and certified by The International Association for Regression and Research and Therapies and the International Association of Past Life Therapists and these organizations may be able to help you find a therapist in your local area.
Meditation
Meditation is perhaps one of the most valuable means of acquiring knowledge regarding your past life or past lives. However, for many people it is sometimes difficult to accept and trust the information you receive, given that meditation is by all accounts, a very personal and private undertaking. Because of this, it is absolutely fundamental that one follows one's instincts and that you place your trust in your own feelings.
Meditation is often described as a dream-like state of mind and of course, to a great extent this is true. Just as in a dream, images will come and go and for the most part, these images provide us with potential clues as to our past lives. For this reason, one should always be ready to write your recollections down on some paper so that you can ponder over them at a later time when it is more convenient for you. Being highly susceptible to suggestion, your mind is able to recall any information which you instruct it to but on the other hand, if you don't believe that it is possible to recall past life experiences, then it simply won't be possible.
For some people, meditation is assisted with visual stimulation such as staring at a pendulum or at the flame of a candle. For others, audio stimulation works better, such as the sound of waves or even recording of the sounds made by dolphins or whales.
A recent discovery using audio technology, known as “binaural beats”, is proving to be extremely effective at inducing an instant state of relaxation. Test results show that playing sound waves of different frequencies into each ear, produces a state of relaxation just as deep and intense as that which is experienced by Zen monks.
Whichever method you choose to use, it is important that you have a peaceful place to carry out your meditation where you will not be disturbed.
Of course one can lie down to meditate but you run the risk of falling asleep, therefor it is recommended that you adopt a sitting position instead. Don't burden yourself with any expectations apart from expecting a state of deep relaxation. Focus should be entirely on muscle relaxation as well as a calm and clear mind. Thought and questions which come to you during this time should be addressed as briefly as possible and then allowed to pass on by. While this may seem challenging at first, with a little practice, it does get easier.
Whether or not you believe in reincarnation, the images you receive will assist you to resolve something in your life. It may not be possible to be sure that the images you receive are from a previous life but quite often people can get enough information to carry out some research and verify names, events and places.
Perhaps one of the most amazing facts regarding regression is that many people discover they have shared past lives with some of their loved ones from this life. Having said this, the relation they share in this life may not be the same as the one they shared in their past life. For example, the person you're with now may have been a brother, a sister, or even a mother or father in your last life.
Perhaps you don't believe in reincarnation or the possibility of having had past lives but if you at least try it, the chances are you'll find regression to be very beneficial and in no uncertain terms, extremely interesting.
