Exploring the Thought of Past Lives: A Journey Through Consciousness

Throughout time, the idea of past lives has intrigued many, including myself. I have personally experienced glimpses of my past lives through dedicated meditation practices, and they continue to manifest in my life.

My Personal Experience

When I was just five years old, I was asked a profound question: 'Where were you before?' I may be able to give you the answer, but I believe it is best to find it yourself.

Consciousness and the Concept of Past Lives

Contrary to commonly held beliefs, I wish the concept of past lives was widely discussed, even when people conjure up their own past lives. The journey of our soul is often seen as moving from nothingness to existence and then returning to nothingness. Form is emptiness, and emptiness is form. This concept aligns with the Buddhist philosophy, which emphasizes the transient nature of existence.

Dreams and Epiphanies

Sometimes, these experiences manifest in my dreams, and at others, I sense familiarity while simply walking or landing in a foreign place. Whether it's a dream or a sudden epiphany, my body reacts with goosebumps, as though sending a charge or flow of energy.

Some people see these experiences as proof of past lives, while I view them more as stepping into someone else's shoes. These moments are stranger than fiction, blurring the lines between the past and the present.

Belief in Past Lives: A Personal Inquiry

Do you believe that you have lived past lives? If so, do you know what they were? I don't see myself distinctly in this life. The idea of having past lives is challenging to pinpoint, but it can be experienced through the state of deep sleep. When my body falls into oblivion during sleep, I'm essentially dead, and the voice of 'me' fades away. Thoughts are the catalyst of my being, but without them, there is just an awareness of life around me. This awareness is synonymous with intelligence, collectively known as consciousness.

Consciousness is the light that illuminates my perceptions through countless 'me's. There are no individuals, but only life, an endless and unbroken thread.

Conclusion

This journey of exploring past lives has been insightful. While it is subjective, the notion opens a window to understanding the interconnectedness of our existence. If you have experienced similar things or feel drawn to the concept of past lives, take the time to explore it further.
