Exploring Reincarnation - Part 2

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Reincarnation has many critics that consider it to be a far fetched and controversial subject, especially when exploring it through second hand accounts, but when someone actually experiences something, first hand, it can shift into a plausible possibility. The most common (well, maybe not common, but most direct) way for someone to have an intentional experience with what are said to be past life memories, is through a process known as past life regression. Regressions are usually performed in the presence of a qualified therapist/hypnotherapist.

The therapist slowly takes the client into a deeply relaxed meditative/hypnotized state. Some may claim regression is an extremely deep hypnotized state; however I have been meditating for a number of years and can see major similarities between the states I achieve and the states achieved with the aid of a therapist. However, it’s not just the state but the visualization techniques that are employed, during a professional regression, that aid in unlocking memories from the distant past.

Exploring Reincarnation - Part 1

Friday, August 3rd, 2007

The concept of our awareness continuing on (in some way) after death has been explored through metaphysical investigations, philosophy, literature from both fact and fiction, as well as the odd tale spun over summertime campfires. The majority of this exploration seems to revolve around spirits and what’s waiting for us in the great beyond. But what about what awaits us after the great beyond?

I don’t believe the afterlife is a final destination; it’s more akin to a layover along the way- a really amazing layover, but not the end. It doesn’t make a lot of sense why we would spend X number of years on earth only to then spend eternity in another location. We are all adventure seekers at heart, there’s not one single environment that could ever contain us or satisfy our curiosity forever.
