Have You Been Here Before ?

[Cormac135]

In a Zen Buddhism kind of way? Reincarnation and karma, i must have done some shitty things in the past if this is the life that I got

Not too shitty, you could have ended up starving in the Sudan or some kinda insect.

Edgar Cayce , on Reincarnation deals with this.

He was an American prophet, healer, deeply religious person from the late 1800's to about 1930's. Very interesting books written about him. He also speaks to the existence of Atlantis, ancient Egypt, healing. Many books written about him. All are very interesting .

I've met a few wandering troubadours in my life, but only one wondering troubadour....... Two questions: 1) were you the one? and 2) What were you wondering about?

1. Possibly ...

2. Whether "minstrel" might have been a more appropriate term. Also, where I might end up sleeping that night, and with whom. Was that You?

Do not believe it since the first person walked on earth if all came back there would not be 107 Billion there is currently 6 billion its silly.

Reincarnation is akin to recycling, same soul into different bodies. So, we have likely been counted more than once as individual people. If 107 billion would be the current population without repeats, and 6 billion is the current "ceiling", then the average number of lives we might have had would be 17.84, including this one.

I've no reason to believe in reincarnation, nor not to believe in it either.

All the times I've been legally dead one would think I'd have been reincarnated by now if there were any reality to it. Instead I just get returned to my body and overcome death.

I do believe in reincarnation. I used to have dreams of a previous life in Shrewsbury, England. I can recall bells ringing after my death and people crying.
One night when I was about three years old, I recall waking up, and my bedroom was totally different to when I had gone to sleep. It was the one from my last life.
I cannot explain this in detail, but I just know that I have had a previous life. I remember a feeling of great happiness and freedom in that life. My parents would tell me not to be silly, but I was always so determined that I had lived it.
Recently I have come across stories of children who can, apparently, remember their previous lives. They bring tears to my eyes.

Interesting. Have you ever done any historical research to see if you can "find yourself"?

Do you believe in reincarnation ?

A few years ago i would have said it was all bollocks but over the last few years i have had the same dream over and over again, I'm a black man being run down and captured and put aboard a slave ship heading for the new world.

Do you have any past life dreams ?

I don't know if I believe in reincarnation but that does not mean that it is not possible...

Anyway, when I was a young boy... 13 or 14. I used to have these recurring dreams that I was some kind of servant boy to a rich man, he was sometimes a soldier or a man of status.

It was always the same man, he was tall, broad shouldered and a built like those men on those strongmen competitions. He sometimes had short hair and no beard, most of the time though he did have a thick beard and really intense blue eyes. The setting sometimes changed from a cold icy village to a palace.

In the dream I was his lover and obviously his servant... he rescued me from death. I was captured as a boy from a village that he and his group of men had probably raided.

In the dreams I aged, becoming a young man. Of course he would have wives and then children. My last real dream of him was that his most recent wife chased me away... threatening to have me killed.

In the dream, I was trying to get back to him but I ended up being murdered. Bludgeoned to death by a group of people on some forest road.

Its weird when you remember a dream... I don't know if that is as accurate as I remember it. Dreams and memory can be tricky.

Oh well... the dreams were obviously very taboo. I was a horny young man, so I think that had a lot to do with it.

Yes, I was one of the original Our Gang kids that died of a drug overdose. None of them lived that long.

I was probably either Farina, Buckwheat or Stymie.

I could be, apparently it's a real story.

In astrology, a sign before your ascendant indicates your "past life." I'm Taurus asc, therefore my soul used to be an Aries.

Surprisingly I think my soul reincarnated here to learn re-curing lesson from my past Aries soul (I used to be Aries ascendant person, then died like the rest of people) I have gut feeling that I re-do my life lesson as an Aries-soul because I didn't pass the last time.

How come? My north node (destiny) still pointing at Aries, at my "past life" while my South is in Libra. North and South node of the moon indicate our destiny/what mission we born into this world?

Hopefully I can re-learn my past life mission in this life without ended throw to lowest cycle, not expecting the highest cycle too (like being Buddha, etc). What mission do I have as Aries North Node and past life person? I keep it to myself, it's a private thing ^^

I get bitch-slapped with dejavu all the time, having the sensation (and perception?) of having been there and done that. But I don't believe it's due to reincarnation, nor do I believe in reincarnation itself.

Precognition has been a topic of investigation from the year dot.

http://www.britannica.com/topic/precognition

I quote

Like telepathy and clairvoyance, precognition is said to operate without recourse to the normal senses and thus to be a form of extrasensory perception (ESP).
