Past Life Feelings

[Kazbadan]

The observations that i do from reality, the things that i have learned (from experience) due to budhism meditation, tells me that reeicarnation and life after death its a reality.

Even so, there are some things that make ask about the truth of such facts (life after death). For example, if i had a past life, why cant i remember anything about that? Lets say that in my past life (lets suppose that it was in the 30s or 40s) my favorite song was "What a wonderful world" from Louis Armstrong. Wouldnt be reasonable to say that in my recent life, i would get in love at first sight with such life?

Lets say that i was Irish in that life. In such case i would feel a strange conection and atraction for Ireland and Irish people.

Well, in my recent life i dont feel any special and mysterious atraction for any country, song, food, etc, etc. Why is that so? MAybe there is not afterlife or reeicarnation. Its strange that such "conections" do not exist (at leats i dont feel nothing).

Like I've said before, I believe in past-lives, but no matter how strongly I feel about it, I will never be able to prove that.  I can tell you a true story though...

Tonight I went over to a friends and this very subject came up..(figure that.. )  His job consist of having to be in high places, and I commented that I was still having a few problems with heights.

He said that he had problems when he was very young but got over it when his big brother teased him about scooting across a roof top...*snicker..men.. *  in a matter of minutes mind you...

But you see, when I was a kid....I loved heights..LOVED them!   Had a neighbor that had the best tree house in the state!  three stories high that thing was.. we use to play Star Wars on it (that included throwing wicked dirt clods at each other, them on the roof of their house, us in the tree house)   I did however hate playing Princess leai...ugh...I felt so much more tough then that.  I can't tell you how many trees I climbed, to the top.  And then there was the Concession Stand at the high school baseball field, I used to jump off that building all the time ( I did notice though, after getting older my feet would sting when I jumped from great heights)

Fast forward around sixteen years when I was pregnant with my first child...my step-brother decided it would be cool for me to climb up to the top of a look-out tower that his friend sat in, watching over some silly important yard.  Two ladders up, and I was having some kind of attack.....I was like glue to the side of that thing, with my purse clutched in one hand and my belly in the other..  In all reality the walk-way was at least four feet, but in my mind...that thing was four inches long.  If you've never experienced this, words really can't explain.

I knew then I had a problem but it didn't bother me so much because when in the world was I going to subject myself to such things again?   You guessed it.........when I started finding myself in dark tunnels going at a hundred miles an hour, shooting up into the stars and having dreams of falling from tall buildings, cliffs and mountains.

And that leads me to the Mountain dream...*yeah..it's not over folks*  We use to live at the base of some mountains,  Sandia Mountains in New Mexico, if you're interested.    I've mention on the forums that my father is a quite the medium, but won't practice.  Anyhoo, he use to take us kids to the mountains to...lol...ok, herd the deer out of the woods so he could shoot them..... I have to say, I was fast as the wind...*cough*...back then...

Well, one day he stopped taking me.  I asked him why and without missing a step he told me, "I've been having one dream over and over, that we are on the mountain,  you slip, falling over the edge and I grab for you, only to grab a handful of your hair."  He never took me again.

It didn't mean much then, but I wonder.....Am I afraid of heights now...because in another life I fell off...hmmm..a mountain?  And why at that specific age?  That brings me back to my friend, whom got over his fear in seconds..was that because he never died in a past-life in that manner, thus making it just a shadow fear?  And the fact that all of a sudden I was afraid of heights...was that the age I died?

It's things like that.... those things convince ME...that I've lived a heck of lot more lives then this measly one.  I would be very full of myself, if I thought that I've learned all these emotions, feelings, and memories in just ONE life...nah...get real.

Hey there, just thought I put in my two cents. I have a extreme phobia of vomiting, so i decided to try past life regression. I went to a friend who is experienced in that area, and she said that in my past life I was my grandmother's aunt's child. (does that make sense?) who died as an infant from choking on sour milk. After that session I went to my grandmother and asked about her aunt and if there were any infant deaths she knew of, and yes it was true!

[Nay]

Whoa u4ia, that is very cool and I believe it!

How does that make you feel?  Even after hearing this, do you still fear vomiting?  or maybe it's the choking that you're really fear/feared?  

Thanks for sharing.

Hey there, after I found out it didnt really help me much with the phobia, but I think it helped me start on the path to heal, made it better to understand why. After I posted that reply last night, I went to meditate, and I had a vision of going in the past when I was that infant, I saw that my "current" self holding the child and calming it. It was quite emotional, but I think I am on the road to freedom of this phobia. otherwise though I am still amazed how past lives can affect our current ones!
