Population & Reincarnation

I have read many of Ian Stevenson's books and believe that the "soul" (for lack of a better term) returns in a new life. I have never had memories of a past life,

I wonder what happens when the world's population increases or, as is predicted for the near future, decreases?

I'd love to hear any thoughts on this topic.

Well, if there's a serious drop in population which presents an inability to support a large amount of souls here, souls will have the choice to rest in the form of stasis or return to source if they want to.

However, between 2011 and July 1st of last year there was a sort of window open that allowed souls to exit the reincarnation system here on Earth if they wanted to and that also allowed younger new souls to reincarnate here for the first time.

Not having memories of past life is the norm actually. It allows people to start each new life as a clean slate, yet still building on the one before.

So if you don't have memories yourself, that may not be important to you for this life. Or you may be one of these newer younger souls that have not had past life on the Earth before.

Tell me about this "window"?

Well, for the most part, the incarnational system of the earth has been a closed system. It had been nearing The extent of and limits of its functional capacity in many ways.

Many souls who wanted to get out and leave couldn't. This window gave them the opportunity to leave if they wished to. It also allowed new younger souls who have never had a chance to incarnate on Earth before an opportunity.

New souls entering could either be born here or as like a walk-in replacement.

Well, it took earth 4.5 billion years to reach a state where life as we know it can flourish and thrive with countless of life forms as well as souls like us that have evolved to be self-aware to live here. This was not always the case in earth ancient past where not even the oceans had not yet formed, and earth was a hot hell hole of molten lava and volcanoes releasing toxic gas into the atmosphere.

So, this window of being here now is small and fleeting in the grand scheme of things so many souls are coming here now to experience life while earths is still in its prime. However, when such a time comes when earth can no longer support life anymore as our sun ages and grows hotter and expands many souls that have not reached enlightenment yet and cycled off the wheel of reincarnation on the physical plane will then seek out life another physical incarnation in other star systems where life there is just beginning. After all we are only a small grain of sand compared to the countless billions of stars and galaxies out there in the physical universe in which soul can receive its spiritual training to further its growth and spiritual evolution. So, we are fortunate to have this opportunity to experience life here now in the Stelliferous Era (or "Age of Stars"), the second of five major cosmic eras. Beginning about 100 million years after the Big Bang and lasting until roughly 100 trillion years from now, this era is defined by the abundant formation of stars, galaxies, and planetary systems.

After this all the stars in the universe will eventually use up all their hydrogen within them and will be exhausted and die off, leading to the Degenerate Era marked by dark remnants like black holes, white dwarfs, and neutron only remain. The universe will no longer have stars in them and will eventually grow cold and dark by then. Even the physical universe will eventually die.

i believe that I live in an infinite multidimensional reality, of which I perceive only a minuscule part, extremely distorted.

I believe that the physical reality, that I perceive and that I am taught about, is one of a numberless versions that exist simultaneously.

From this perspective, some of the questions, concerns, and assertions above are misconceived.

Hi Totoro,

I am not familiar with the "window" you describe. Could you provide some background on this concept and authors, websites, etc. where it is promulgated and/or promoted? I'd like to explore it further.

Cordially,
S&S

Here is what I found on that wiindow:

Key Aspects of the "Window" (2011–2025)

• 2011/2012 Threshold: A significant turning point often mentioned by spiritual authors and teachers who believe 2011/2012 marked the beginning of an era of increased conscious awareness, intended to break the cycle of forced reincarnation.
• The 9-Year Cycle Completion (2025): Numerologically and astrologically, 2025 is cited as the completion of a major 9-year cycle that began in 2016-2017, functioning as a "final exam" or "graduation" for many souls before a new, higher-vibrational reality emerges.
• A "Year of Completion": Many sources describe 2025 as the end of a long, "9-year" karmic cycle, often viewed as the final chance to tie up loose ends and exit the traditional reincarnation trap to prevent being recycled back into a new, lower-density loop.

The is from the theory that reincarnation is forced and not a choice. Which is something I do not believe.

Yes it was the 2011-2025 window that was often talked about. The key difference though is that it wasn't for graduation, it was simply a mass exodus for anyone that wanted out of the cycle; either as a walk out, I suppose and opening the door for walk-ins, to new souls who have never incarnated here before or through birth or after death.

I can't stand all the "it's a trap!" (insert star wars meme here) talk either. It's all a bunch of click bait really and it all originates from the misunderstanding of the reincarnation process on the whole. We all consented to be here and to be a part of the reincarnation process, yes. But there was a period of "forced" reincarnation and I really wouldn't call it that, however it did have the effect of maturing the soul to a point where it could "graduate" to another incarnational framework.

The one we are coming out of now, was based on a simple Boolean type logic: if you steal you will be stolen from. It worked for smaller, less complex societies and is literally breaking down now trying to handle both the number of souls passing through it and the complex societies we live in.

I thought the good place did a really good job of trying to explain this concept. The judge explains that the guy should have just done his research and picked a better tomato. But do you really know how hard that is? To pick a tomato or a pair of pants that isn't "bad" in some way? Modern life has become nothing more than a finger pointing circle with everyone avoiding accountability and or having little choice in how they interact with it.


Anyway, the system is grinding to a halt and is no longer effective. Up until now, souls that wanted to get out of it, couldn't. Ocean posted this video in another thread and I was shocked when I saw the point the woman speaking about how souls were screaming, not wanting to reincarnate. It was literal proof of something I was researching myself.


Where did I find this information? I didn't. I was nearly gone from the forum for about six months, since July 2025. I had an awakening and did a deep dive, into myself for a lack of a better word and I'm now finding out about the same things others have written, although I have my own POV on things.

But anyway, the new system will be managed, self directed care. Back to our basic stealing example, how many cycles of "you will be stolen from" until you learn the lesson? Who says when the lesson is learned and by which criteria is it judged by? Who sets the criteria?

The new system will be to help you determine why you stole the first place. You can take time to rest, think about it, decide what you want to do or experience in your next life and you don't have to reincarnate right away if you don't want to.

@SeaAndSky here's a very short list of books that delves it topics like this. A lot of it reads like Sci Fi, I'm not going to lie. But if you can look past it, there's some very basic truths in many of these and other books.


Voyagers: The Sleeping Abductees" (Vol. 2) by Ashayana Deane

The Urantia Book

The Ra Materials

The Gnostic texts

Another thing too that will happen is you'll have more bandwidth or accessed at your higher self.
