It's weird to believe in reincarnation. I also believe my dog my have my late fathers soul. It all started to be new to me, reincarnation as a slice of reality. I was in jail, solitary with another (this life). I had a dream when sleeping that I was in a helicopter shooting a mini gun. Woke up to here more of a great spirit speak thru the cellie. He was saying a lot of my thoughts out loud, what I didn't share to any soul. He told me his father was dead, a Vietnam veteran. His father was an air force vet and was in rescue missions in Vietnam. He said his father was a gunner on a helicopter. I realized this was a past life, it made a lot of change in a cold sitution. Fate brought , me there thru some ruff circumstances. Anyhow, his father died from heroin on purpose. He had lukeimia, I believe from agent orange. He was 28 when he died. Been reading above ubout soul groups and not sure what purpose I have right now. Seems awful what happened to many souls from the wars. Just wanted to share no get it out. I get his newborn feeling sometimes when I am aware of something like this story. I have already lived longer than this man. Strange enough his name was Dennis, as was my fathers name, and what my middle name sorta is (just the letter d).
i would excercize caution with regards to visionary sequences whether they are subtle light waking dream type visions, or more pure inner light visions - none of them are specific to the moment of this particular existence - which is to say that i would give them no more importance than dreams - or even dreams have more importance since they speak to a quality of inner synthesis presently going on based in ones daily experience and thus are more inherently integral to ones present existence i experienced immense hearing when i first learned meditation - i was hearing voices and stuff - like hundreds of conversations at the same time - it happened for two days and then, thankfully, never again. so i am not without psychic experiences. but i have also learned some wisdom in 35 years of meditation - and that wisdom has taught me to keep ones eyes on the ground they are walking on and not one's head in the clouds
this is so very true. its not like all these other places and things aren't there. its just that where we are now, is what it is up to us to have to deal with. we can be 'no self and no other', but we can still stub our toes if we don't watch where we put our feet.
those two things do go together i am watching someone right now take the slow heroin overdose way out the coward's way
