Let’s face it; the concept of reincarnation is by no means a new idea. In fact, the possibility of having had a past life is something which many people have believed in for thousands of years. The Japanese, the Chinese, the aborigines and many Africans all believe they have had past lives and that those lives can influence the life they’re living now.
With regards to reincarnation, it is believed that a past life has a direct impact on your well being and your health in this life, and for that reason it is perhaps advisable that you get to ‘know yourself’ and that you become familiar with who you were in a past life. Furthermore, in order to become a better and stronger person in this life, one should learn how to integrate all the many strengths which one has accumulated during past lives.
How can you be sure if you’ve had past lives or not? The truth is, you simply cannot be sure, even though you may have peculiar dreams or disturbing memories when you’re awake, that you feel don’t belong to you. Interestingly enough, while a vast number of people believe that everyone has had a past life, some basic mathematics shows clearly that this is not the case, and that there must certainly be some new souls. Some other indications to look out for would include:
* An intense attraction towards a specific culture with which you’ve had no exposure in this life, and for the most part one which makes little sense to you. If for example you feel deeply attracted to the art or history of a certain era, then you may have had a past life experience regarding that particular era. Quite often if you do a little research and it so happens that the art you’re attracted to stems from a relatively short time period, then there’s a strong possibility that there’s something there.
* Intense emotions with regards to a specific incident in history could also suggest that you may have been involved in one way or another with that specific event.
* Fears, phobias and allergies can also sometimes be a good indicator with regards to past life experiences, particularly if they cannot be connected to your childhood years.
Those indicators which have been mentioned above are just a few of the possible indicators you may or may not experience. However, even if you do experience one or more of the above, you shouldn’t necessarily take it for granted that you’re remembering a past life. Instead, you should look for patterns and similarities between things which attract you for no apparent reason. Providing you follow this approach you may soon start to notice a pattern forming and when you do, you will be in a better position to put the pieces together.
Additionally, it is possible to gain an insight into past lives by means of hypnosis or self hypnosis if you prefer. In fact there are many past life regression therapists who specialize in this field and for that reason it may be in your own best interest to arrange for a meeting with such a therapist.
If you would rather use self hypnosis in order to investigate your past life or lives, then you should ultimately be looking for a technique which also doubles as a method for deep relaxation. Before you actually go ahead and use this technique for regression purposes, first spend a little bit of time becoming familiar with the technique.
From a safety point of view there is nothing really to worry about. Instead the most that you will experience is an extremely vivid recollection of a past life. While it may not always be very intense, you should still however be able to experience different feelings and even shadows of a past life.
Furthermore, while good memories will result in good feelings, bad memories will result in bad feelings, much the same as you experience after a bad dream. Just as with a bad dream, you’ll tend to wake up feeling uneasy but at the same time you need to bear in mind that any unpleasant memories are also an important part of regression.
The all important issue here is that you actually remember something from a past life so that you can then move on. Remember, when the subconscious mind is suppressed, only then can these memories lead to further problems. By having the ability to understand and to accept what has happened in a past life, you’ll be able to experience this live from a different perspective.
As is mentioned in the theory of karma, if you lead a good life and you do good deeds then you can expect to receive good things in return. On the other hand, if you live the life of a bad person and you do bad deeds, then you can expect your life to be filled with problems and much unhappiness. You need to bear in mind that if you have of bad karma, it will stay that way until such time you strike a balance between good and bad.
Unfortunately many people tend to get confused with regards to this interpretation. Contrary to what some believe, we don’t have to be bad or suffer simply because of a past life. Instead, each time you are born you are presented with a new opportunity to do things the right way. As a result, once you accept the fact that a certain memory may indeed be from a past life, and that you’re not necessarily a bad person in this life, then you can move on and have as good a life has anyone else.
