Famous Past Lives

I have always found it ironic, in a sense, that though the belief in reincarnation might be supported by some people in more conventional settings, as soon as you bring up having memories of being a "famous" person, those same tentative supporters scoff and shut you down.

It is hard to open up about remembering past lives. Even harder than opening up about those who have become (in)famous, for lack of a better term, either during your lifetime or thereafter. But I did my research - as did most I spoke to - I have plenty of evidence, external and unbiased - I would not embarrass myself for attention. Should we shut down the 99% of people who are telling the truth and seeking for companionship, for the 1% who might be doing it for attention-seeking purposes?

I have attempted numerous ways of searching for people I used to know. As I remembered this particular life as a child, it feels very "close" to me, and it is incredibly hard at times to believe it's meaningless, that I'm supposed to just remember all these people I loved wholeheartedly for them to be dead before I was born. I want to meet them again, even if it was a neighbour, a fellow-student - an adversary even, for lack of a better term.

I'll start. My name was Alexander Hamilton. I am starting this thread to have a judgment free zone, of talking of your "famous" past lives, without this drivel of needing to prove to perfect strangers you are who you really say you are. I am here to find people who used to know me, and maybe you seek the same. Here's to this being a start.

(Please do not bring up politics - one of my other posts already got flagged for this. My identity is more than a former job description.)
 
Having been researching my own FPLs for over 20 years now, here's my opinion.

First and foremost, famous or not, past lives should be a way of learning about ourselves for the purposes of personal and spiritual growth. At the least, they should serve as proof of the reality of our connectedness in both humanity and spirituality.

If you want to go public with your FPL, the burden of proof will be on you, that is something you will have to accept. People will be skeptical and the bar so to speak is much higher.

I don't personally get anything out of discussing my past lives with people. I will bring them up in context, but not by name directly, as examples when talking about past lives in conversation with other forum members. The specifics don't matter, but as I mentioned, rather that we're all on a path to growth and healing.

Hi Alex,

A quick search of "Alexander Hamilton" brought up numerous posts from folks claiming a relationship and trying to find you. There were also seemed to be at least one claiming to be Alexander Hamilton (which may have been you posting earlier). Anyway, you might want to search your own name and see what comes up.

Cordially,
S&S

Woah! How did you find out you were Alexander Hamilton?
 
I was Ryoma Sakamoto in my past. I tried posting here initially to find others who had past lives in Japan, and perhaps anyone who could've known me.

I'd made an entire thread when I joined several months ago but barely had any hits. Japan doesn't seem too common of a topic plus this forum is pretty quiet. I'd be open to sharing more of my past but I do hope to find others that I can relate to. It feels kind of lonely in some ways.

Well I'm unsure why my reply was deleted truly but oh well.

Anyway, I've been afraid to post about my lifetime because it is extremely famous. A lot of people may not know Ryoma Sakamoto but a large amount do. I'm afraid to open up about the lifetime because I fear I'll be rejected for it, I never would think like you said for posting for attention. My urge to post comes from hopes to find someone who has similar experiences to me and maybe even knew me. I posted here once but deleted it all because of fear of such things as well as not getting much back from it. But I figured I'd try again, because maybe someone out there will see it and reach out.

Nice to meet you Alexander, I admit I don't know much of your past life but have heard the name before. But you seem to be here for reasons I am, so I hope you find what you're looking for.

I brought back your post. I am sorry that I didn't recognize your past life as a famous past life. I thought you made a double posting because you had simultaneously made your own thread with the same information.
 
I have had three that were somewhat known. I've claimed one on the boards. The other 2, well, they have been confirmed in a weird sort of way by people that studied the times and/or people.

One has given me a lot of angst. I rarely name her although there are people who are both interested in her and believe in reincarnation that would love for me to embrace it who are aware I was her. On that life Western historians are changing the history of her, some of which is true in abstract, but mostly sanitizing her history. (Mostly it is saying she was a poor thing who never did anything wrong and was blamed for being a poor widdle girl. It is also extremely wrong, except for the part she was indeed used as an example of what not to do.)

The other life also has people in that community that tested me and find it believable. I never have claimed to be her publicly, and likely never will. There is one who claims to be her, and I've never felt the need to contradict it, even with some urging from those in the community. The one who claims to be me was likely my daughter in that life and I'm fine with her going off of it. She is repeating what happened in that life: taking the name and reputation of the older one and getting the recognition for it. Something now, and that life, I didn't care about.

I have claimed to be Maria Romanov though. If you search, I do say that it is possible I was someone else due to the whole time period of many people being held prisoners. Funny thing about it, I looked like Maria at the same age and I am left handed (although my eyes are grey not blue).
 
Elle you have claimed to be Maria...it would be just a coincidence to come back looking like her although possible. You have memories? I also feel an attachment to the family. But I know I was not one of them because I would remember that gruesome ending like I remember another. One would never forget that. I do share many similar features and characteristics with her but so do many others. Yakov Yurovsky was the one who organized it all..he was born into a Jewish family. He was raised Jewish, but later converted to Lutheranism and distanced himself from his Jewish root. Blame him for all of what happened!
 
I bear a resemblance to several past lives that I could find images on. However, I also am very bland in my looks and I tend to look like someone everyone knows. It's just a passing, oh I look like them.

I've also stated on here that I could be any Russian from a noble family. Being locked up was not limited to the Romanovs and I am sure there is more stories similar to them even the death. Memories I have tend to be limited to being very little brother centric. As to the assassination, there is vague images. It was smoky (we know from history now) and my memories are like looking at smoke through fog from a distance. Maria was also at the back trying to get out a door, and what I do remember is flashes of it. It is very much a strobe light effect in my memory. The biggest thing from that memory is the doors and trying to force them open and the terror and hopelessness of them not opening.
 
Do you know who I wonder about? Corey Haim and Bobby Driscoll. Both were child actors, discarded by Hollywood, and died similar, ignoble deaths.
