Do you believe in Past Life?

How can we experience it & what do we have to learn from it?

By Digital MePublished 2 years ago 5 min read

Have you ever felt a strange connection to a place, a person, or a culture that you have never encountered before? Have you ever had a vivid dream or a flash of memory that seemed to belong to another life? Have you ever wondered if you have lived before and what you were like in your previous existence?

If you have, you are not alone. Many people around the world believe in the concept of reincarnation, which is the idea that the soul or the essence of a person can be reborn into different bodies and different lives over time. Reincarnation is a central belief in many religions and spiritual traditions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Taoism, and some branches of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Reincarnation is also a popular topic in New Age and alternative spirituality movements, as well as in literature, art, and entertainment.

But how can we know if reincarnation is real? How can we find evidence of our past lives? And what can we learn from them?

There are different ways to approach these questions.

Some people rely on their intuition, their feelings, and their personal experiences to explore their past lives. They may also look for signs of past lives in their current life, such as unusual talents, preferences, phobias, birthmarks, or physical traits that could indicate a connection to a former self. They also study the phenomenon of déjà vu, which is the feeling of having experienced something before that is actually new. They may also analyse the genetic and biological factors that could influence the transmission of memories across generations.

But to explore it deeper the other people use techniques such as meditation, hypnosis, or regression therapy, to access their subconscious memories and uncover clues about their previous incarnations by going into trance state. It is a state of altered consciousness in which a person becomes either completely or partially unaware of his surroundings and become more aware of his inner soul and the world beyond his physical world. One of the easy meditation techniques termed as Anna-Panna Sati Dhyan that helps achieving this state tells to sit in a relax position with crossed legs & crossed hand, keeping a slight watch on the breath. Different people have experienced it differently. Some do not get any experience at all, some are able to connect to the outer world, some get their illness healed, and some watch their multiple past lives during meditation on practicing.

Other people prefer a more scientific and rational approach to investigate the possibility of reincarnation. They look for empirical and verifiable evidence of past lives that can be tested and confirmed by objective methods. They examine cases of children who report memories of previous lives that can be verified by historical records or witnesses. There are several verified and unverified cases across the world where kids talk about their past lives. There are evidences where kids speak language other than the language spoken in their family which clearly shows some connection with their past live which become hard to believe for many.

Those who get to see their past life or lives either by mediation or past life regression therapy or by any other mean, it's important that how are they interpreting the learnings they get from their experience. It becomes life changing for them. They understand that whatever is happening to them does not belong to the current life only. Many people see their relatives in past lives as well in same or different roles. Many people understand the purpose of their life. But the most common among all is that they understand that whatever is happening to them in this life does not belong to the current life only, and the importance of the act of forgiveness.

These people claim that seeing their past lives can help them learn more about themselves, their purpose, and their destiny in this life. They also say that seeing their past lives can help them heal from trauma, overcome fears, and improve their relationships.

But what exactly can one learn from seeing their past lives? How can these insights benefit one’s current life? Here are some possible learning outcomes from seeing one’s past lives:

• One can learn to appreciate the diversity of human experiences and cultures. Seeing one’s past lives can expose one to different historical periods, geographical locations, and social contexts. One can see how they have been different genders, races, religions, and classes in their past lives, and how they have interacted with different people and situations. This can help one develop a more open-minded and tolerant attitude towards others who are different from them in this life.

• One can learn to recognize the patterns and themes of their soul’s journey. Seeing one’s past lives can reveal the recurring challenges, lessons, and goals that one’s soul has chosen to experience and achieve in each incarnation. One can see how they have faced similar issues, made similar choices, and met similar people in their past lives, and how these have affected their karma and evolution. This can help one understand the meaning and direction of their current life, and make more conscious and wise decisions that align with their soul’s purpose.

• One can learn to heal from unresolved issues and traumas. Seeing one’s past lives can uncover the root causes of some of the problems and pains that one is facing in this life. One can see how they have suffered or caused suffering in their past lives, and how these have left emotional scars and energetic blocks in their psyche. This can help one release the negative emotions and beliefs that are holding them back in this life, and forgive themselves and others for the mistakes and hurts of the past.

• One can learn to enhance their talents and abilities. Seeing one’s past lives can reveal the skills and gifts that one has developed and expressed in their previous incarnations. One can see how they have been artists, musicians, writers, healers, leaders, inventors, or teachers in their past lives, and how they have used their talents for good or evil. This can help one discover and cultivate their innate potential and passion in this life, and use them for positive contributions to the world.

These are some of the possible learning outcomes from seeing one’s past lives. Of course, not everyone believes in the concept of reincarnation or the possibility of accessing past life memories. Some may argue that these are just fantasies or illusions created by the subconscious mind or influenced by external sources. However, for those who do believe in them or are curious about them, seeing their past lives can be a valuable source of learning that can enrich their current life.

What do you think? Do you believe in past lives? Have you ever seen your past lives? If so, what did you learn from them? I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic. 😊
