I'm not happy with the stage this world is in and I dream of another way we could live (I won't go into detail because, sadly, discussing politics isn't allowed here and imagining a different world is ALWAYS political!). Anyway, having discovered a political position and movement that suits my...
I have read of several ways of how the time between lives is received by people, from remaining on Earth in spirit froms to moving to the spiritual plane and meeting other souls there. Now I believe that we can actually choose which way we want after we die.
My main question is this: how...
Oh, I love David Safier's books Mieses Karma (Bad Karma) and Mieses Karma Hoch 2 (Bad Karma to the Power of Two) which are also about reincarnation but into animals.
The films and the novels you mentioned sound interesting, thank you! :D
Hi Cyrus,
oh, I'm convinced of reincarnation. I just wondered whether there were any stories outside of case reports and documentaries. It's just a curiosity really because as far as I'm aware, Cloud Atlas is the first major film in the West that deals with reincarnation.
Also, I want to...
Hi there.
I recently came across this thread (Cloud Atlas | Reincarnation Forum) which interested me immediately because I have seen this film many times and I love it. I also saw a very good analysis of the film that touched on the theme of reincarnation (Cloud Atlas | In-Depth Film Analysis...
That sounds like a very beautiful experience! :)
However, it also sounds a little too impersonal to me, especially that "if those conditions aid and help you to unfold on a spiritual level". It's like my specific needs in each incarnation aren't actually recognized but more of a tool. And I...
I find this thought to be very interesting!
For my next life, I wish to grow up in a family who has a more progressive view of child raising than my current parents. And I also wish to have a sister and be born as a girl myself.
It's a very strong desire right now so do you think that these...
Interesting thought! :)
I don't quite understand what you mean if desires "can and usually will be realized on the higher dimensions in between incarnations".
For instance, I want to reincarnate into a family with a pogressive view of child raising including extended breastfeeding and...
I definetly want to be female in my next incarnation. Although designated male at birth, I identify as female now.
And I would like to be born to a family with a more positive view on child raising like extended breastfeeding and self-weaning, co-sleeping, unschooling.
Oh, and I would like to...
Your comment leads me to a question:
if "it's not our human consciousness that makes that decision but rather from our higher self or soul consciousness", what does this mean for our desires that we have now in our physical incarnations? Are they meaningless between lives? Or do we decide our...
Well, whether it wasn't this bad not so long ago depends on who you ask. ;) For some groups, it was bad before. But I assume that you're talking about a time when it wasn't bad for anyone which I totally believe. I believe that in Paleolithic and Neolithic times, humans did live in egalitarian...
Thank you for your kind reply! :) Yes, it is a big thing for me. I explain the reasons in this post (Will my unfulfilled wishes and desires in this life influence my choice for a next life? | Reincarnation Forum) and I quite like your suggestion to create a web page or something similar on that...
Thank you for those kinds words! :)
I totally get what you mean by distracting yourself with thoughts about alternative existences. But I guess, since my dream is to have a good childhood, it's not something that I could achieve in this life unless I were to roleplay with a female partner as...
Hi Polaris, it seems that your reply about soul ages in this thread (http://reincarnationforum.com/threads/pre-birth-memory.9569/#post-129552) has been deleted. Well, from my subjective feelings, I'd say that I'm a mature sould and the soul-age test confirmed that.
Okay, so my question is a little more complicated than I could squeeze into a title.
As I stated in previous posts, I have several wished how my next life will be because I'm not happy with how my life has gone in this incarnation. I want to be born a girl in my next incarnation (and, as a...
