And yet, one cannot entertain neither the karma explanation, nor the life lessons when giving a reason for reincarnation, if fore-knowledge is taken out of the question. Excuse the pun, but Fore-knowledge is at the forefront for either of these explanations. Not to mention that fore-knowledge...
That's a tall order! Wanting to, convincingly, set the record straight on just one historical figure would be a monumental success for reincarnation. Wanting to, convincingly, set straight the historical record for a few historical figures would be a universal success for reincarnation. May you...
I'm going to be frank, although I may appear to be otherwise. Here is what I would seriously consider a VERIFIED past life account. And although there are many books and other material out there, which have laid out cases that many accept as verified past life accounts, I say that they are all...
Your imagination is correct, I've seen those two maps, and not only seen, but had various discussions with other atlantologists on them. Herodotus was helpful with establishing the understanding as to where the Greeks of his times considered the pillars of Heracles to be, which obviously are the...
@KenJ I see that you have some good credentials for discussing Plato's Atlantis. However, I have to tell you that when Plate tectonics became understood and accepted by science all those claims of an Atlantis size continent having submerged around 12,000 ago, or more, was completely debunked...
In keeping with the thread's objective, questioning if there are any verified past lives accounts, I'm looking to verify my own perceived past life, although I can appreciate when someone's else case seems to be verified. To be clear, I'm not in need of proof/empirical physical evidence, for...
Here is another interesting article from psychologytoday.com and is a recent one, Jun 2019. Since this topic is meant to ask if there are any proven cases of past lives accounts, evidence is the key to proving reincarnation. The author of the article is Iddo Landau, Ph.D., and is a Professor of...
S&S,
I just used the portion from that site regarding Plato and reincarnation, since Plato, and also Aristotle, were firm believers in the soul. Those two had much to do with influencing Western Thoughts, which was what I was trying to emphasize. I linked the source from which I took the excerpt...
The Problem With Reincarnation
It's not the lack of evidence.
Here is something I ran across just now, although it is a little dated (2012) and which is an interesting perspective from an MD's point of view on reincarnation/unconsciousness, who also claims to be a Buddhist. He opens with...
I like what you posted, but I have quoted only the portion that I cannot agree with. Western cultures are basically an outgrow of the Mediterranean cultures. And linking below is just an example, as it shows that the foundation of western culture was well into the belief of the soul, and the...
Welcome back! How can you tell that 4 people from this site are those same people hitting your site? Are you stalking them? I'm just kidding, of course!
I once found your site long ago, and by mere accident, as I can best tell. While perusing the various pages there, I found some interest in...
I was thinking about woolly mammoth fur, but science seems to list them as typically having a thick coat of brown hair. Perhaps your memory may be off on the color, and it may have been brown wooly mammoth fur. However, perhaps there was an exceptional and rare mammoth which had grey fur? And...
Anyone here with memories on having had a past life in Atlantis find any familiarity with what the Sleeping Prophet Cayce reports from the files of the Akashic records?
Here is a sample of one of Edgar Cayce's readings mentioning Atlantis.
This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home...
Happy Birthday? Celebrate with a large German chocolate cake with 101 candles on it to blowout.
I would celebrate my own past self birthday, but it's hard for me to blowout the 2,500 or so candles, even if I could remember the exact day, month, and year. As a compromise I just buy a good fruit...
I'm not in a position to express what is and is not, in my opinion, a judgment. But that is what a judgement is also all about, an opinion. A judgement equals an opinion. However, an opinion from a person who is considered a legally appointed judge, and also carries a sentence with it, cannot be...
I wonder if anyone here has ever considered Plato as being a prominent author on the subject of reincarnation? All of Plato's written work is freely available on the internet, and in many languages, besides ancient Greek. Generally, academia looks upon Plato as a mere philosopher, whose writings...
David, You should follow your heart. If you feel the way you do on these matters, do not allow anyone, including me, to sway you from what you strongly believe, and from which you have garnered what you consider as being lots of Good things in your personal life. There will always be...
That is one of my many reasons for putting little faith in all these many psychics, past and present, claiming to be in direct communication with the spirit world. Take the differences given by one very well noted psychic of the past, Edgar Cayce, one who claimed to be "channeling" (access to )...
I think that you may be right on your thinking about the endings of stories, whether it's God's stories, or human stories. God's stories may not be written in stone, as an old saying goes, although some will argue that God's wishes and commandments were written on stone tablets. However, I do...
For anyone having knowledge of Edgar Cayce's material related to reincarnation, it would be, I think, an interesting topic of discussion. Edgar Cayce gave hundreds of life readings to people, using only his psychic abilities. The majority of the readings had people having past lives in Atlantis.
