How do you honor your past lives - & do you own something like you had before?

I collect tea. My past life in India was as a spice trader and he was rather fond of tea whenever he had time to sit and properly enjoy it.

He also liked it in the Middle East, so now I have a Persian style vase too lol.

Owning a genuine SS uniform might indicate they had a previous life attached to the uniform maybe even without knowing

Genuine SS uniforms can cost you the price of a small mortgage. But too not only for the past life aspect also the fact that you can say “I own so and so’s original SS uniform....” I know people who have some original stuff and I think. “Why?”

For me personally, I’ve already lived in that era and both parts of my soul have worn SS uniform (SS proper and SS Helferin) so it’s not something I want back. Maybe if I went to a big military repro meet like Military Odyssey in the UK, might I seriously consider obtaining a repro, but the fact that I know some of my old stuff is in someone’s collection does make me feel happy. To know that it’s not rotting away somewhere and people respect it as a historical Militaria piece.

One thing I would be curious to see in real life, though, is a uniform that belonged to Eugen and is still in someone's private collection. I often wonder what would drive someone to own genuine SS uniforms, but I am no one to judge. One thing I know is that I will never try it on.

You raise a valid point Ben. But too, ego drives people to own genuine original SS items. To them sometimes, it is a status symbol of how much they know about said person OR the fact they can gloat over they have something from someone famous.

When the Russians were approaching Prague, Lina Heydrich fled the Lower Castle at Jungfern Breshan only taking with her to remind her of her late husband Reinhard, the same very SS tunic he was wearing that fateful day of the assassination attempt. Now that was still covered with blood too. Perhaps if she were thinking clearly and not under fear that the Russians would capture her, she may have taken another different tunic of his. So there was a few tunics and stuff from the home office left there. Most of it is in private collections sitting in someone’s attic.

I think at the end of the day it doesn’t matter WHO owned what, to the soul it’s nothing. It has no significance and the need is less. As my guide told me one day: “Why would you come back and long for that period of history again? Why would you long to wear something that is dead and buried in history?”

They’re right.. Why would you? To please the ego? Or to subconsciously heal without being aware of it?

Pa. Before I forget, I have a replica ceramic bust of my Queen (Nefertiti). It was given as a unexpected gift, but I don’t own anything original, not even from my WWII lifetime.

Eva, that's an interesting but quite complicated question to me. If I had the chance to wear one of my own past uniforms (which have absolutely no fame attached, hence no reasons of ego), I would jump at it. Equally if I had the chance to own any fragment or relic from my personal past, the same applies. Why would I? I don't think I could explain all the reasons even to myself, but it has to do with making an actual and tangible connection between our two lives. I don't think for me it's even to do with healing either. Your guide sees it as something that is dead and buried in history ... but I see it as something that is still very much alive in me. So I guess we're all quite different, and there are perhaps many answers to that question.

As a side-note, I wonder if people who have a memory of a 'between' life experience might have a different outlook from those who haven't. I don't have any concept of a time between death and new life. I don't have any way of imagining a 'soul' or even a 'guide'. I came back almost straight away, I was born during the same war I died in, it's very fresh in my mind, and maybe for that reason alone I feel connected and longing for anything that brings it closer. Who knows?

You have to remember tanker, that as a Spirit Guide, they have no connection to the physical world or any of their past belongings, so I expected something like that from them. Being honest, really, I don't wish to ever wear anything from that time ( though I seriously considered something along those lines for a time, as a method of deep spiritual healing, but eventually forgot about that and found other methods). Maybe some civilian clothes I had that I really liked, and am still trying to find, mostly because I liked them very much. But anything to do with the uniforms I wore, I am not interested in.

I have memory of being 'in between' my PL from the Holocaust and this life. There are somethings I research that are entirely new to me, though I have memory of 'seeing' them from Spirit, or have knowledge that they took place while I was spiritually asleep ( the Nuremburg Trials for one). Perhaps how you returned is still the reason why the war is very fresh in your mind, or the reason why you long for something.

Would I honour myself and who I was at least once? I'd like to. But just not in the way of wearing an original uniform. Revisiting places that made me feel very happy is my way of honouring my past.
