REINCARNATION

Reincarnation is a very controversial topic for many people. My spiritual encounters have definitely given me the proof that I needed in order to believe that we have lived before. In order to understand reincarnation, one must understand the evolution of the soul. Many religions and cultures do believe in the theory of reincarnation. The soul is an energy that is said to be a splitting of the oneness of the ONE, the WHOLE; i.e., the higher intelligence, or as many have referred to it as the Source. Each soul has a purpose or a plan that it has attracted to itself in each particular lifetime that it encounters. The body is just the mere encasement of this energy that survives physical death. After death we get to the spiritual plane, we keep growing spiritually there. When we arrive we are burned out from the life we had just lived. We have to go through a renewal stage, a learning stage, and a stage of decision. We decide when we want to return, where, and for what reasons. Our body is just a vehicle for us while we are here. It is our soul and our spirit that last forever. It has been reported that we are not always required to come back to the physical dimension to learn what we need to. Love is the common denominator to all of the lessons that we need to learn.

The soul contains the memories of every lifetime it has ever lived. Sometimes when we are born, we come into this world with previous traumas, fears, phobias etc. Because of these unsettling memories, that are not always present in the conscious mind, may make us start off our journey here with certain beliefs that have originated in other lifetimes. The soul has no gender. It can be born in one life a man, and in another life a woman. It has been said that we have been man, woman, black, white, Asian, Spanish and so on. Many lifetimes we create realities for ourselves, before we are born, to coincide with lessons that we previously did not learn in the earthly school. Many books have been written on this subject. One of my favorite books is entitled “Many Lives, Many Masters” written by Dr. Brian Weiss. Dr. Weiss is a prominent psychiatrist who attempts to put his client Catherine under hypnosis to access her childhood memories in order to do some healing work from certain problems she has encountered in this lifetime. The twist to the story is that when he attempts to bring her memories back to her childhood, the soul had another agenda. Catherine’s memories of her past lives helped her to clear the blockages that were created in this life. She was directed, under hypnosis, that the lessons that she already learned did not have to be brought forth in this current lifetime. This work is very therapeutic and healing for many people. I believe it is more than putting a band-aid on the wounds; it is digging deeper to get to the source of the problem.

If you ever decide to go under regression therapy, make sure you first think about what it is that you cant change in your life, or what is it that always seems to block you from your destiny in this

lifetime. Most of the times, the regressionist will know right where to go to release these issues. Form your own opinion and good luck on your journey.
