The Soul Remembering…. the concept of Past Life experiences through Reincarnation and remembering

First of all in reading this one should take the assumption that reincarnation is held as actually happening to the Souls that reincarnate here on earth in order to learn and grow through the life experiences attained whilst in physical form on each incarnation.

Souls are created in a positive matrix of such love and wisdom that when a Soul starts to come to a planet like Earth and join the physical beings who have evolved from a primitive state, the violence is a shock. Humans have the raw negative emotions of anger and hate as an outgrowth of their fear and pain connected with survival going back to the Stone Age.

Both positive and negative emotions are mixed. If a Soul knew only love and peace it would gain no insight and never truly appreciate the value of these positive feelings. The test of reincarnation for a Soul coming to earth is the conquering of fear in a human body. A Soul grows by trying to overcome all negative emotions connected to fear through perseverence in many lifetimes.

When we return ~home~ to the Source of ~All that Is~ we remember all of previous lifetimes and lessons learned and then when we return back to earth again of course there is the fact of amnesia for those lifetimes already put in place so we cannot ~remember~ with conscious memory. We can tap into some of those memories though through use of regression therapists, meditation etc when the need/desire is there

When the Soul returns to Earth with the shroud of forgetfulness it must adjust to a new brain without conscious memory. The new baby has no past experiences yet. The reverse is true right after physical death. The Soul mind works with a great storehouse of past life and spiritual life memories and one also works with the conscious and subconscious memories of the current life incarnation as one walks the path of that physical form with the aim always of integrating the Soul with the personality.

So how can we tap into the Soul memory in order to assist ourselves on the path of integration? We can learn to understand the different types of memory and increase our conscious awareness thereby bringing the unconscious to conscious {smile} when we are learning different things and receive a little ~ah ha~ factor then take the thread of that ~thought~ and follow it further back … and greater understanding and increased knowledge then can take place. In order to increase our knowledge one must also seek Truth above all things, the way to seek Truth is to look for harmony and beauty in that which surrounds us in life.

The superconscious identity of the Soul houses our continuous memory including goals. When the time in our lives is appropriate, we must harmonise human material needs with our Soul’s purpose for being here.

Different types of memory

We can categorise the different forms of memory that are available to us in our human incarnation.

One of the theories put forward by scientists is that memory recall comes through DNA, ie they have the belief that all memories are carried by DNA. In this way they can derive comfort from what they consider to be a scientific position against reincarnation. Certainly, everyone has a perfect right to not believe in reincarnation for a number of personal reasons, religious and otherwise. But to say that all past life memory is actually genetic in origin, carried in our DNA cells from remote ancestors, is an argument that can fall flat in several ways.

Unconscious memories of past life trauma are capable of carrying a severely damaged physical imprint of that long dead body into our new body, but this is not the result of DNA. These molecular codes are brand new and came with our current material body. Attitudes and beliefs from the Soul mind do affect the biological mind. There are researchers who believe our eternal intelligence involving energy imprints and memory patterns from past lives, may influence DNA. Indeed there are countless of elements involving though sequencing which we bring into our body from former lives. This also includes our experiences in the spirit world where we have no body.

A sound argument against past life DNA memory is the volume of research that has been accumulated about past lives. The former bodies we have had in prior lives are almost never genetically related to our current family. One could have been a member of the Smith family, along with others in ones Soul group , in one life, and then might all choose to be part of the Jones family in the next life. The average person has led past lives as Caucasians, Orientals and Africans etc with no heredity connections. Therefore this ~so called~ genetic memory is actually Soul memory emanating from the unconscious mind.

We can divide memory into three categories

This state of thought would apply to all memories retained by the brain in our biological body. It is manifested by a conscious ego Self (personality) that is perceptive and adaptive to our physical planet. Conscious memory is influenced by sensory experiences and all our biological, primitive instinctual drives as well as emotional experiences. It can be faulty because there are defence mechanisms related to what it receives and evaluates through impressions from the five senses

2.    Immortal Memory

Memories in this category appear to come through the subconscious mind. Subconscious thought is greatly influenced by body functions not subject to conscious control, such as heart rate and glandular functions. However, it can also be the selective storeroom of conscious memory. Immortal memory carries the memories of our origins in this life and other physical lives. It is a repository of much of our psyche because the subconscious mind forms the bridge between the conscious and superconscious mind.

3.    Divine Memory

Increasing ones awareness is one of the ways in which we can tap into the sources of the Soul mind, learning to trust ones intuition, the thought prompts that arrive….and the more we practise doing this the more proficient we will become {smile}

There is a statement from the Upanishads about our senses being carried in memory after death. The old Philosophical text is correct in the assumption that the senses, emotions and human ego are a path to infinite experience, which provides a physical consciousness to the immortal self.
