The concept of reincarnation has been around ever since ancient times, and to this day there are still people all over the world that believe they have had a past life. Just as most oriental people believe in reincarnation, so to do the Australian aborigines and many Africans. In fact many new age religions also believe in past lives and that those past lives have a direct influence on one's present life.
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.
While some people have disturbing dreams and others have memories which don't quite seen as though they belong to them, it is however not always possible to tell whether or not you have one or more past lives. Of course, while most people who believe in reincarnation tend to believe that everyone has had a past life; mathematics goes a long way in proving that there must at least be some new souls. Apart from dreams and memories, other indications to look out for include:
* A particularly strong attraction to a certain culture that you've not had anything to do with in this life. It for example you're attracted to works of art from the Victorian era, you may have some connection to that era in a past life. In that case you should do some research with regards to the art of that era and if you discover that the art you're attracted to is from a limited time period, then there's a good chance that you've been around before.
* 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.
* Do you have any irrational fears, phobias or allergies which simply cannot be connected to your childhood years? Remember both physical and psychological issues could be linked to past life experiences.
Of course, those things which have just been mentioned are by no means the only possible indicators. Likewise, just because you may have experienced one or more of the above indicators, that's not to say that you are remembering a past life. Ideally, you should try to establish whether or not any pattern exists with regards to things which attract you for no apparent reason. By following this approach you may well discover certain similarities which in turn may help you to put the pieces together with regards to a past life.
Hypnosis and self hypnosis are both means through which people can access their past life or lives. In fact there are people who specialize in helping others to gain access to memories locked in their subconscious minds. These past life regression therapists make use of what is known as "deep hypnotic remembering" in order to make it possible to remember past life experiences.
If on the other hand you choose to use self hypnosis rather than a past life regression therapist, you should aim to use a technique which doubles up as a method of deep relaxation. Furthermore, before using the technique for regression, you should first spend some time working with it.
Considering that the most you'll experience is a vivid recollection of a past life, there is essentially nothing to worry about with regards to your personal safety. On the other hand your experience may not even be very intense, and you may simply experience some shadows and feelings 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.
Furthermore, you need to bear in mind that it's the 'remembering' which is the all important factor here. Once you start remembering, you'll be able to move on in this life and it is only when one suppresses ones subconscious with regards to these memories, that problems start to arise. Acceptance and understanding with regards to things which happened in a previous life can go a long way in helping you in this life
Those who are familiar with the theory of karma, will know that it is believed that when one has led a good live and done good things, then you will in turn receive good in this life and in future lives, unless of course you change into a bad person at some point. In that case, rather than being blessed with goodness, you can expect to be surrounded by unpleasant events until such time that your karma once again becomes balanced.
Strangely enough, many people still tend to get confused with regards to how they should interpret this. The bottom line is, just because you may have done some bad things in a past life, doesn't necessarily mean that this live has to be one of suffering. To the contrary, each time you start a new life you are given the opportunity to do things the right way in order to receive good karma. For this reason if you have a bad memory and you realize that it's from a past life, you can then free yourself from that memory and go ahead and have a good life now. - 31955
