Who do you want to meet in Heaven?

I was reminded of my NDE in 1978 last night. I would ask people this question for many years to come. In my young mind - it was a possibility everyone faced when they finally crossed over. (It was sort of a shock to me - to find out people didn't know this.) If you wanted to know what was on George's mind when he crossed the Delaware - you could look him up on the other side and ask him. Simple as that.

I thought it would be an interesting question to pose to the members of the forum.

Who is the first person you want to look up - and what question do you have in mind for them?

Queen Elizabeth I- how did running for your life when you were very young affect you as an adult?
 
I want to meet an ancestor of mine, George Ruddel. His father, Isaac, owned Ruddle's Mill and fort, in Kentucky during the Revolution. The British and Indians captured the whole family, took two young brothers captive, threw the baby in the fire, and force marched them to Canada, where they were held captive for three years. Upon attaining his freedom, he immediately moved to the New Madrid earthquake fault. Most of his land fell into the Mississippi River. He led the survivors through a swamp to safety. He then moved to the Texas Territory, and took land grants. When he died, he freed his slaves, and left them all his considerable wealth.This bothered the rest of his family greatly. (!) I would want to ask why he chose such an adventurous life, and how he survived it! There was such a strange combination of good fortune, and utterly calamitous events in his life. He lived through a great sweep of American history. There would be good tales to tell! His brother, Stephen Ruddel, was blood brother to the great "Tecumseh", and there is a film about their relationship. I think I'll sit down and pass the cider with the whole Ruddel family!
 
After guides, friends, and family, of course, the next would be the architect of the "doorway" phase of Stonehenge. The questions should be obvious . . .
 
Who do you want to meet in Heaven?


My late twin, who was in the womb with me, and possibly sacrificed himself, so that I might continue to term (9 months) as my late Mother could not carry both of us to term, given her medical condition and she miscarried, and further investigation, it was discovered that the miscarriage contained a perfectly formed fetus, developed for that stage (about 6 months) and he was my twin.


I have a few relatives (blood and step relatives) who I hope I never see again, but most of them I would like to see.
 
hydrolad,


In my daughter's case her twin sister sacrificed herself so the other could live. (I have the RH factor)


She is in constant contact with her sister. I hope one day you can have the same, and if not then I hope when you do pass over the person at the head of the crowd to greet you is one who looks just like you.


Hugs
 
There are many close friends & family I would want to meet on the other side. And animals/pets too. There may even be people I knew from past lives still there....
 
all my animals, my grandparents & good friend who was in her prime.


then i'd love to catch up with all the great women in history.


elizabeth 1st, ann bolyne, catherine of aragon, joan of arc
 
My sister, some familymembers.. And I would definitely pay a visit to Elvis and have a little jamsession on our heavenly (:laugh:) instruments.
 
Count me in on the Elvis thing, TMeganV. I always shock myself, watching his old TV specials, and "panting" over a dead man! :laugh: If you haven't read Dean Koontz' "Odd Thomas" books, you might like them. He hangs out with the ghost of Elvis.
 
All my family members and beloved pets. I just hope none of them will have reincarnated by then.


I often wonder if people who are/were important to us can come to us again in recognizable astral form (when we pass over) although they have reincarnated and are in a new physical body elsewhere.
 
I have read that that is possible, and our larger energy, or just a part of it, stays on the other side.

This reminds me of a long conversation I had with my Grandfather when I was a child. I was talking about the 'relatives' I was introduced to on the other side when I had my NDE. My Grandfather found this hard to comprehend and believe. All the relatives I spoke of had 'died' years before I was born. I told him,


"What is so hard to believe? YOU were right there. In fact, YOU was the one introducing me around to some of them!"


My Grandfather - and then later the rest of my family, felt I had 'slipped over the edge of insanity' because I gave testimony of their 'spirits' being there to greet me on the other side when I had my NDE's. My Grandfathers response to me was,


"Now you done went and put me in my grave and I AIN'T even dead yet."


After awhile - it got too confusing for my mind to 'recall' that part of the 'afterlife' were my relatives spoke to me 'in spirit' on the other side about events that were going on - on this side - yet - when I came back in my body (and time) they had NO memory of their 'conversations' with me on the other side as I had.


After my 1978 NDE - I started recalling it happening again and 'caught myself' before I said anything due to 'instinct and intuition' about my childhood and the 'bad feeling' the dire straights this sort of testimony had put me in the past.


My many experiences led me to believe without a doubt - that even if you wanted to met up with a 'world leader' who is leading a country, in office and alive when you cross over - you can still travel to their 'spirit' and have a vivid and lively discussion with them concerning what ever topic you bring to the table. Whether or not their 'spirit' is attached to anew isn't going to present a problem what so ever. (From what I recall of it.)

I feel I will meet my greater soul and higher self, and I want answers to all the questions I've got...supposedly we've got over 4,800 lives on this orb and I want to know what "we've" learned and what my specific purpose was as "Usetawuz" and the rationales for my being were. I believe that is a fair lot of questions...all the other questions focused outside of me can wait. I want the classic "why was I there, then and with those I was with?" Followed with "So how did I do and what did I really screw up and what did I really hit?" Though I do already have a correlation to this sort of experience...I was in a college fraternity and as a pledge we couldn't sit at the head of the table and had to stop eating when the fraternity brothers quizzed us...my goal was to get initiated and sit at the head of the table and tell the brothers what I thought of them...only when I became a brother, there was no longer anyone to tell off...I was one of them. I suppose so many truths will become evident when I am "over there" that most of my desire to know "the answers" will become moot.
 
Apparently, I've already met my twin soul mate. She was my first love.


But who I truly want to meet is the woman I've corresponding with online. She doesn't seem like a fake, yet she's been elusive. Been going on like this for three years. I live in Oregon and she lives in San Diego, and we're both busy. Took me two years to get her e-mail address. I've been on and off with her because I get scared easily with women. I didn't really date anyone until I was like in my late 20s. I'm 31 now. If we do meet, then it would be my first real relationship. I call her the woman of my dreams. Of course, her flaws are all tolerable and I accept them with open arms.
 
Strange, I know.


I want to meet God and talk with him about spiders.


*i have always been terrified and facinated with them.
 
After reading these posts, I think I would like to hang out in heaven with all of you. Wouldn't it be strange if the forum members are one huge "soul group"?
 
I don't have just one specific person or question. Just Pets, family, friends from this live and past lives.Also my spirit guide(s).Every soul that is or has been special to me throughout my souls journey. (I bet my pets will be the first to greet me!) :D
 
The Rainbow Bridge


Yes, Stephanie, you might possibly meet them first, a lot of people believe in the concept of the "Rainbow Bridge" and in my personal opinion (and NOT as a Moderator) I believe that the first thing you see after exiting the "tunnel" is the foot of the Rainbow Bridge, with your pets waiting for you.


IMHO pets have a pure love, free of any issues or agendas, no strings attached, just a love that the Creator might have for us perhaps.


Also IMHO, after the Rainbow Bridge comes the "conversation" with the "intelligence" with the entity within the glow of light (perhaps the Creator?)


This is MY personal opinion only, there is nothing that I have said here that is the official opinion of the Past Life Forum.
 
Is it weird that I don't want to meet anyone in particular? At least not anyone who died.


I want to meet people I've already met but I don't see anymore. Like my crushes. So probably if I never talked to them in my life, I'd want to meet them in heaven.


Maybe the reason I'm not too bothered about any other life than this one, is because I'm still relatively young...?


But it's an interesting question. I think when I die, I'll want to get back here as soon as I can.:laugh:


Currently I'm looking for my soul mate(s).:laugh:

This reminds me of something that took place recently. I had a close friend I grew up with until I was 14. (1974) My family moved and we lost touch with one another. I never forgot him and thought of him often. I kept wanting to look him up and would run into roadblocks here or there. One night (in 2008) - I had a 'vision like' dream during the night and the next morning I swore he was in the room with me the entire night. It reminded me of the many times we has spent the night together and stayed up talking the night away in our youth. When I woke up - I ran to the elevator to 'catch up' with him. I felt I had saw him off to the elevator and he had pointed toward the roof and said, "I will see you up there - when it is your time." I ran up to the roof to see if had found me somehow and had surprised me during the night. I thought I was going to find him up there and was disappointed when I didn't. That day, I hired a Private Detective to look him up for me to contact. The PI contacted me and said my friend had died the day before I had hired him.


It was only after that - I recalled that as kids we had promised one another - that who ever left this world first - would pay the other one a visit to reassure the other one - that our friendship had been eternal and would never come to an end. I realized my friend had kept his promise to me. (On a sidenote, when we met - we both 'knew' we had lived in a previous life with one another. He was the second person I met in my teens who had memories of past lives we had shared.) We felt the visit wouldn't be 'good-bye' as much as 'until we meet again.'

This echo's something from my 1988 near death experience. My 'death' and 'resurrection' was witnessed by 8 friends. I gave them testimony of my 'trip home' to heaven. They all wanted to know what was on my mind to make me want to come back. They were of the mindset that 'heaven' was the ultimate goal - and that life here was a one time thing. I just laughed and told them that if they had taken the trip I had - they would have seen the 'long line' of souls wrapped around the globe several times - waiting in line to get 'born here' into a life here on this planet.


I had already spent years trying to talk about my 1978 'near-death' and I had tried to convey to people - the 'feeling' you get when you 'wake up' on the other side and turn your head around to 'view' life 'as it is' rather than as we 'perceive' it in human form while 'blind and deaf' to the spirit. I often told my friends that the 'grass was greener' on the other side. Meaning, that here, everyone thought the goal was to get to heaven - and over there - the goal was to get in line and be born into the world again.


All my mystical experiences with 'spirits' that have departed - as well as my own memories is - there is no forced 'karma' type situation that brings us back to this world 'again and again.' From my understanding - our spirits have a 'deep desire' to experience life here. That is why the 'teaching' that we have to get off the 'merry-go-round' and NOT incarnate doesn't line up with my memories of the afterlife. I think us 'kids' are going to be jumping on and off this 'merry-go-round' of life - until the dang thing is broken and don't work no more.


I feel your youthful and honest expression touches on a profound and hidden truth. (You were probably waiting in that line a long time - and don't want to forget how to appreciate the life your spirit longed for in this world.)


Sincerely,


DKing

This has been my feeling as well. Not all souls desire to experience a physical existence, and fewer still want to deal with the amazing range of densities and vibrations available on this blue orb, but for those of us who do incarnate, the opportunity to do it on this earth is hugely desired. The skill set which enables us to not only focus on this single, razor-thin dimensional "reality" we inhabit, but to live a life well in spite of all the difficulty involved, is considered extremely rare and valuable by every soul. Consider all of us incarnating as the wild, adventurous souls of the bunch, not content just to live life in eternal perfection...we want to give ourselves challenges and opportunities to prove things to ourselves and share what we find with those not quite so audacious...and if you already know you're eternal and there is no "death", why not jump? Into life, that is...what you do when you get there is why you came.
 
Winston Churchill or Oscar Wilde. Both are my heroes. I wouldn't have any particular questions - I would only want to hear from them what their lives were like.
 
I love both Churchill, and Wilde, but I might not be interesting enough to talk to them. I think Mark Twain said, "Go to heaven for the climate, Hell for the company". When I was a teenager, I thought that you wouldn't find interesting people in heaven. Now, I think that Twain might have had it reversed!
 
Am I going to Heaven? : angel :D


Anyways, I guess I would like to meet my grand-grandfather and just ask him about his life, since I never got to meet him. Also other relatives that died a long time ago and I would have liked to meet/ know better.


Then I guess some particular Pl family and friends, although I´m not sure what I would ask them in particular.


As for famous people like celebrities, maybe I would like to ask John Lennon if he wants Chapman to be free or to continue in jail for the rest of his life. But it's not really a priority. And maybe I would like to ask Socrates, Plato, Nietzsche and Wagner what they think about the world today. It would also be interesting to ask Jesus what he thinks of reincarnation!

This reminds me of a conversation with my after one of my NDE's around the age of 8 or 9. (I believe I have shared it before on the board.)


They were showing me a photo album and I pointed to a picture of my Granddad's grandfather and the sight of him triggered recall from one of my NDE's.


"Oh yeah, I remember him."


I was to pass on a message to my Grandfather from his 'spirit' which stunned my Grandpa because his Grandpa had died before he was born - but the message was family related and had something to do with his Dad. (My Great-grandfather who had just passed as well.)


My Grandparents started quizzing me - because they thought someone had put me up to saying that - because as they said, "It just doesn't make sense." There had been something like a 'family reunion' on the other side during my NDE and I went up the family tree and described a famous relative who was well known because he had been a 'writer' in the 1700's. I was digging deep for the memories and then I was shocked.


"Why you asking me all these questions? You was standing right there in the middle of all them when I was doing my talking with them."


I recalled that the spirits of both my Grandparents had been involved in this 'reunion' process on the other side during my NDE.


"Now - you really have me confused. How come you don't remember it like I do?"


My Grandfather said,


"How you putting me in my grave if I ain't even dead yet?"


I recalled the 'spiritual conversations' as a child after a NDE. How I recalled them with a childish mind - and how they actually went - are probably two different things. It didn't seem like it was all that big of a deal when I was outside my body and it was 'normal' or par for the course. I felt it was something everyone did when the passed over or passed away from this world.


It was one of the many incidents of conversation after a NDE that there was a reference made to 'eternity' being void of time as we know it. But, there was always a happy family reunion going all the way back up the family tree in spirit when the time came to cross over.


Sincerely,


DKing
 
Interestingly enough, no one. I don't hate anyone from this life, family or otherwise. I just want to start a brand new life and make a clean break of this one. I would say goodbye to people from this life who also passed over when I die who I happen to meet, but that would be it. I don't think that there would be anyone that I would feel like, "I have to see this person." I really look forward to starting something brand new.


Maybe someone thinks that this sounds cold and callous, but I pray almost every single night. Nothing religious mind you. More of a talking prayer. I forgive people in my life who caused me harm or pain and wish for their happiness, wherever they are. I profess my love for everyone and everything, even those who will never love me back for whatever reason. And I never say anything that I don't really mean in these little sessions so it's all sincere. (It gets very teary at times.)


I feel like I've said everything that needs to be said already, so saying more to someone who has also passed over would be unnecessary.
