Past Lives - Understand Your Future By Facing Your Past

By Richard Fox

Whether you believe it or not, there are several ways you can learn about your past lives. Just look at the Hindus and Buddhists who have utilized this as part of their religion for centuries. Even if you aren't a big believer there is nothing wrong with being a little curious about the whole scenario. If you need answers you can look into the various ways to understand different pieces of the puzzle and explore all your options.

Keeping a Diary

Now, we know there are a lot of people out there who keep some sort of journal. Whatever it's about today, we recommend starting another one for your reincarnation adventure. If you truly believe that your past lives are working against your future, write down everything you do throughout any given day. In the beginning it may not feel like much, but there will be pieces of the puzzles you can pick up when you least expect it.

Just look at your life today and see if you can find any clues. It might be the slightest detail, which is why you should jot down events, animals, reactions to situations, colors, anytime you felt dj-vu, and a host of other things. Basically the more you write down, the better chance you have of finding something.

When you wake up in the morning, think about the dreams you had last night. One thing to keep in mind is that our dreams tend to bring out past lives clearer, so remembering them is important. So the next time you come across a symbol or event that would never occur today, it's possible you knew this in a previous life and it tried to surface in your dreams. We understand this can be difficult, but if you tell yourself you want to learn about your past lives before going to sleep, it can definitely help.

Regression Therapy

If you haven't heard of PLR, it stands for Past Life Regression. There are several therapists out there that guide you through a regression period and help you understand the information that comes from it. Unfortunately there are only a few of these places available that truly train and certify their professionals. We suggest letting the International Association for Regression and Research and Therapies and the International Association of Past Life Therapists find a therapist in your area.

Experiencing the Meditation Phenomenon

This is a sketchy topic simply because some people have a hard time trusting the information they accumulate. We can't stress enough how important it is to trust your feelings, and if you can do this on your own in a private manner it will save you from spending the big bucks on classes and one on one services.

When you experience this for the first time, you're going to feel like you're daydreaming. You may see an image here and there, but it could be hard to decipher what is the past and what you're conjuring up that very moment. Remember, the mind can be very suggesting if you allow it to be.

You've probably seen movies where individuals use some sort of visual stimulus to get started. It could be the flame of a candle or a pendulum, but they are both helpful. If the visual stuff doesn't work, you may want to try and meditate with sound. This could be from music, those audio sounds that help you sleep, or various other tools that are similar.

If nothing seems to be working, take advantage of the new technology that surrounds binaural beats. This where sound waves are played in each ear and allow you to relax almost instantaneously. This is due to the constant switching of frequencies throughout the process. It's believed that only Zen monks can develop this sort of meditation, and it's taken them years to do it.

While all this is great, you have to find a place that is quiet and peaceful. If you don't, there will be too many distractions.

First of all you need to find a comfortable position once everything is quiet and peaceful. You will have to teach yourself how to relax the muscles which will calm the mind. If you get distracted with stressful concerns or anything else, you have to let them go. It's hard to do at first, but once you're able to make that connection the body will flow into a meditation much easier.

Eventually there will be images that surface. These can be both good and bad depending on the situation, so don't be started at what you see. It's going to be hard to verify everything you see, and be able to tell what is from a previous life and what you added into your mind 10 seconds ago.

You may even come to the conclusion that your brother, mother, or father today, was once a part of your life many years ago. However, they may not have been of any relation, or could have been even closer then you are today. Whatever the case may be it's unbelievable to think you knew your siblings 300 years ago in another lifetime.

In the end, everyone has their own beliefs about reincarnation. If you choose to do the regression process, most individuals find helpful and interesting information throughout the process, even if they don't believe in reincarnation in the beginning.
