Lives before this Life
I happen to listen to
some story on Youtube which speaks on children who happen to remember their
past lives with accuracy. There was a Indian girl child who remembered her past
life and went on to identify her husband & family from past life. This story
was well documented. One or two incidents could be fake. But internet is inundated with so many that ,
its hard any longer to discount it. The Abrahamic religions (Judasim/islam/Christainity)
speak of one life where as Asian religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism ) are
sure of multiple lives dating back to the beginning of life.
I personally met a
south African (Vandy) of Indian origin has very interesting tale of his own
past life . Vandy is poet-spiritual gypsy who led hippie life. Dabbling
with drugs and substance abuse he travelled across world before resting for
few days in Nepal. Here he separated from his group and travelled to India( to die in land of his forefathers as he said).
Being broke financially he lived through odd works in ashram where he met an
Estonian PLR practitioner . Born as Christian he couldn’t fathom concept of
past life till he experienced it. That Estonian took him to past life through
hypnosis where he saw he was a bald monk in Uttar Kashi. Even Uttar kashi
didn’t ring any bell as he never visited India before. Subsequently in his
travels he comes to a valley and old memories beyond current life wakens. He
recognizes valley, villages which he discovers it to be Uttar Kashi. Continuing
what he left in past life, he joins Art of Living ashram, learns astrology,
Ayurveda, yoga. Once his visa expires he goes back to South Africa to lead life
of spiritual LSD (laugh, song, Dance). More about him here in this link (http://brahmagyani.blogspot.com/)
With night still young
and sleep nowhere in vicinity I know a person whom South african met in Aol
Ashram (we all met there) born in months of cusp of Death & Birth sunsign. He
claims all his current life tendencies attributed to his past life. On probing
further how he could figure it out, PLR (Past life regression) was his reply. I
know PLR works to some , doesn’t work to many, and quite a lot fake through
claiming themselves as kings or heros of past. None say they were pig or
criminal or ordinary person ever. All kings & Knights.
He speaks how PLR took him from Human to animal to back
to plant life. How far is it true is not something neither he or me could vouch
for. But its interesting to hear.
As he went back to his
past even as he was aware of his surroundings during PLR, he could see himself as
Buddhist woman from Tibet wearing all warm clothes in a hut. In another life
time , he was army general . Though born during war, he was more administrator or
back office guy than a combatant. Going deeper he was a painter in kings court
showing off his colourful paintings. Much further he was some roman soldier
killed by spear. Moving more further he was fish in water and even before that
he was small innocuous plant in a Gurujis ashram.
What went from weird
to bizarre was the link he made all above stories to current life. In this current
life his inclination to Tibetan Buddhist teachings, Painting & spiritual affiliation
to Art of Living was linked back to his life Tibetan woman and plant in ashram (Ashram in
past life was of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar as he claims) , voracious appetite to Nazi
Germany and World war 2 history continued
to extent that he took military machinations like duck to water to get into
paramilitary in this life. Born in cusp, his love for life in all kinds &
spiritual life contravenes his job of unspiritual deeds. The twain still not
met or came in terms with each other.
Did soul carry old tendencies
to new Life? Maybe, as he says he never took classes in art nor worked hard in
current job or tried to break head to understand spiritual esoteric studies. All
came naturally from birth with little or no effort. How far is it true? I have
no clue but sounded interesting when I first heard of it. Hope you enjoyed it..What do you say??
