I have always been a history buff. Especially when it comes to war. I know, that sounds very wrong coming from a peace activist and humanitarian. The abhorrence of war has always fascinated me because it has always moved the outcomes of the lives within those civilizations.
Why do I bring this up, when a lot of my previous focus has been on more futuristic models for our society's evolution. I guess because I have often heard: You can't know where you are going unless you know where you've come from. A little about destinations and direction I suppose. like Homer said...'the journey's the thing...'
Well, I guess one of the main reasons for bringing up is this wild idea that we have been energy that has always existed and whether we acted as witnesses to previous events or whether we believe we may have been incarnated from previous vessels in previous lifetimes, it is something I am very curious about exploring.
Some of my recent research on the matter has brought me back into deep space where it is thought that since the big bang, our DNA has been set into motion and has been travelling forward ever since through the matrix of time and space within bandwidths of light. Now if you are of Christian theology, you know that we are all created after the creator who is light. A light source we are not fully capable of understanding at this time as from what I have read, the creator's DNA is made up of 12 helix strands not just 2. So we have yet to evolve...but I understand, it is starting to occur.
Why do I bring up past life regressions or re-remembering? I guess because I have had a few experiences lately that have been quite overwhelming and profound. One is my remembrance of a war general in early Palestine around the time of Abraham. I remember the life of a man who was ruthless, fierce and brutal and bloodthirsty. Then he met a spiritual leader and his life changed 180 degrees. He then became a humanitarian and compassionate philanthropist and gave up his worldly position, status, power and possessions to serve others.
So, that is one vivid lifetime I have dreams about to this day. I had a very profound experience again the other day regarding someone I had chanced to meet. There was this profound re-remembering and connection within the very first moment my eyes connected with this other person. So profound it was like receiving an electrical current up my arm when we shook hands.
Now here is the wierd part. This person felt that same feeling as well. It was so overpowering for both of us that I could not concentrate on being in the present. There was so much about what may have happened from the past or what may very well be the evolution of the future that I felt in a complete time warp. I know this sounds very odd to most people as we often think in a linear pattern. But all I know is there was this deep, profound remmberance that goes beyond anything I had ever experienced. I had experienced it one other time, but the other person did not recognize of understand or feel it so the connection was not solidified.
So I wonder about whether or not to journey into some sort of past life regression to fully understand this connection and what it had meant to this individual and myself. Perhaps we had been in a relationship and had said we would find each other again. I get this feeling more than anything else at this point. The only real drawback to that situation is that in this timeline, the individual and myself are 25 years apart in age.
Whether or not a person believes in the idea of our spirits being eternal and being on an evolutionary path to gain enlightenment and knowledge as we travel into the light or not is entirely an individualistic belief. I guess from my own Christian knowledge and understanding, I had always been taught to believe we only get one time around...with a physical body here on this earth. But these events that I have shared have been too profound for me to think in such limiting beliefs.
Wish me luck as I journey to see if I can find out the source of this connection. Who were we, when did we live, where did we live, what did we do, and why is there such a powerful remembering of this person...without knowing them?
