The Occult

Only a small percentage of people actually believe that reincarnation exists, all of twenty five percent of the population. It, however, does not mean reincarnation does not exist. Have you ever had a feeling or maybe felt connection to ’something’ but could not explain why. I know you understand what I mean. Sometimes there are things we feel a strong connection to and can find no reason for this. I might simply mean that in a past life it was something important to you.

Unfortunately, this possibility is often overlooked or its validity is ignored by many people and these people often miss the opportunity to develop further personally and find out who they truly are and why. What is not realized is the lost opportunity of getting in touch with your past lives impedes your personal successes and achievements.

As a matter of fact extensive research has shown that past life regression is a very powerful tool in helping people with emotional problems.

One of the most common benefits of life regression is the healing and clearing of trauma. When we encounter trauma we all make one of two choices, run or face it and change it. When we are talking about life regression and facing trauma we also have the option of rescuing the past self and helping him/her move forward to the now where the trauma can be viewed as a whole by the Higher Self.

A positive way to get in touch with your creative self is with past life regression. Every one without exception has a creative spirit and is imbued with many attributes that can help guide each individual to make better choices and decisions in the present. Practicing past life regression will help you go back to the past and visit one or more lives. This attribute can be forwarded to the present and act as an Inner Guide.

Using past life regression to go back into the past, it is possible to correct a past mistake. Karma as we all know is the belief of what goes around comes around. Good and bad deeds of the past are returned to the originator in the future. If another individual is involved with an agreement, contract or promise, in the past, and you find a need to be free of this agreement, then, you need to go back into the past at the time this agreement originated. This is often accomplished with the help of an Inner Guide. Whether for atonement or to correct or modify the agreement to help in your present situation.

There is a definitely significant benefit when using past life regression - the grounding and affirming ones self.

When an individual goes through past life regression more aware of themselves personally and more grounded. This is no uncommon and due to the fact of knowing presently who they are and why they have certain characteristics, connections as well as desires and passions. This information allows them to embrace who they are as an individual and to live a more completely balanced life.

You can ask the experts in the field. They agree that if a person truly wants to enhance or improve their life then they need to practice past life regression. Past life regression will help you remember the lives you have had so that you can live a more fulfilled life this time.

You probably will have reservations about this but when you are having feelings and events and feel they are figments of your imagination, a catharsis takes place and opens your mind. It breaks down the barriers that block your successful achievement of the things you want to accomplish in life.

Lets briefly recap. The benefits of life regression also include coping and dealing with trauma situations from the past. This allows us to move forward in this life, the present. Having dealt with these past situations makes it easier to make better choices and decisions. This is possible because we’ve already dealt with them in the past.

Just as in history, if you know your history the chances of repeating your mistakes in the present are unlikely. This is true in your personal life and world wide. If you’ve been dishonest in the past and you have paid the piper you can change your old bad habits now, in the present, for the better.

The most important of all the benefits of past life regression though is the fact that you will have a better understanding of who you are today and why you are that person. This means that you can live a more complete and balanced life where you are able to live to your fullest potential, taking advantage of the talents and skills you didn’t even know you had.

Past Regression - Past life regression teaches different techniques, which when learned and put into practice, will help you to recall your previous life or lives. Of course you will need to decide which of the available methods is best for you. With more and more people beginning to be interested in reincarnation people are needing to find out about these different techniques.

A good tool that can prove very beneficial when referred back to is a journal. In your journal you will need to record all your thoughts and feelings. Even those that seem inconsequential to you at the time. You also need to write down any emotions that you may feel, as it is generally believed that emotions are a strong link connecting us to our past life or lives. Do not forget that even something as unimportant as an irrational fear of cracks in a sidewalk can prove very useful and need to be made a note of in your journal.

Begin your journal with a thorough and comprehensive description of yourself, from your likes and dislikes to your preference for one culture over all others, your desire for a particular climate, and even if you have a particular affinity to a certain period in history. Include information on your fears, your favorite food, animals that you feel drawn to, etc. It is important to be thorough as there is no such thing as useless information in this regard. Discuss your particular talents if you possess any and describe what they are. In short, tell your journal everything about yourself, about your personality and whether you experience things such as deja vu. Write it all down.

Your dreams may also tell you something about your past lives. Of course, your dreams will be largely made up of things from your current life, but you should write down the events of your dreams, since there can be some elements of your past lives to be found here.

Another way to go is Past life Regression.

This involves a visit to a professional past life regression therapist. They are trained to guide you through the regression and then with your help interpret what information that came through. This technique involves the professional doing hypnosis. Sometimes this can be done by self-hypnosis.

Meditation can be another powerful tool to help you find out more about your past lives.

You can do this on your own, but keep in mind that you?ll have to trust your own instincts and feelings as you proceed.

Although many beginners feel that instead of meditating they are only daydreaming, important information can and does come through, so it is necessary to record what you experience during the meditation in your journal.

A lot of people find that listening to music while they meditate is all they need to be able to relax and focus their minds. Alternatively, you might prefer to listen to the soothing and calming sound of water, or the helpful guided meditation audios that are available today. Lighting a pleasant smelling incense or burning some scented candles can help you to relax as well. Whatever you choose to help, it is important that you are completely relaxed and focused. If none of these do the trick then you might want to try something else.

Binaural beats.

With Binaural Beats you listen to different frequencies in each ear that help you to attain the same meditative state that Zen monks can reach. You should choose somewhere quiet and free from any kind of distractions and disturbances. Somewhere that enables you to sit or lie down comfortably.

It is important that you are relaxed and that you are not distracted by thoughts about everyday things. Simply acknowledge the thought so that it does not keep recurring, and so that you do not forget it, then put it out of your mind. Remember that meditation does not just happen, it takes practice before you will reach a true meditative state.

You can have past life regression experiences through the use of meditation - these glimpses of your past lives can help you with problems you are having currently, since you may have overcome the same obstacle in a previous life.

Reincarnation is a belief held by many of the world’s religions. Some believe that we experience the consequences of that which we did in our past life or lives, whether good or not, in our current life. It is called Karma and is not that different from regression, in that once you have discovered information about your past life it can help you when faced with issues in your present life. It is all about learning from our mistakes in the past, and that can only enhance and enrich your current life experience.

Keep in mind that you have to go into any of these practices with an open mind and be able to accept that what comes out. Your mind has to accept that it is all right to remember the past life while you are learning to accept the memories that are deeply buried in the subconscious. You have to be willing to learn from your past mistakes and correct them in this one so that this present life is better than the last.

Experts in past life regression say that being able to learn from your past lives is one of the greatest benefits of the practice. It is said by some that past life regression can also help you to overcome mental blocks which are negatively impacting your physical and mental health.

Using past life regression can help you to make better decisions in your life by learning from the mistakes you have made in previous lives and avoiding them this time around.

Being able to see what you were or like in the past may help you see a hidden talent that was just waiting to be brought to the front and so help you live a richer, fuller life now. This will also help you have a much better understanding of yourself. If something about yourself that was a mystery before like say singing, maybe you were a professional singer in a past life. And so that talent is coming out even if no one else in your family can hold a tune.

Past life regression allows you to get to know yourself better, thereby making better decisions and choices n your current life. Therefore it is beneficial to investigate it further, as it helps you to discover just who you are and why you are the way you are.

Many people, such as Buddhists and Hindus believe in reincarnation. It is part of their religion and their way of life. There are others who are just curious, some who seek the answers to life’s mysteries and those who consider reincarnation to be the more common sense approach as far as their past lives are concerned. No matter how you look at it, there are more people who believe in reincarnation than don’t and here are some ways to help you if you want to remember your past lives.

Write Down Your Experiences

The way to successfully discover facts about your past lives is to write down your experiences in some kind of a journal. Describe in words things that take place and that happen, even when you think they are of little or of no significance. Make a note of your feelings as different emotions are more often than not the strongest clues we may get relating to past lives. You may find that all the notes you have taken are relevant to your past lives and fit together to make a bigger picture at some time in the future.

You can look for such clues in your present daily life. You can make lists of things that you may like and dislike, which may include anything from your childhood, foods, fashions, architecture, the climates, various cultures and historical periods. You may also consider including other things that come to mind, such as how you feel and what you think about your natural talents and gifts, fears or phobias, characteristics of your personality, birthmarks and scars as well as animals, occupations and those times you may experience deja vu.

Record your dreams as best you can, since past lives may show up occasionally while you dream as well as any time that you may get a hint of a past life. Keep in mind that dream symbols may be reprehensive of both present and past lives and they may carry a meaning for you personally for either the present or the past. It is a good idea to present yourself with a suggestion, before you go to sleep, that you want to learn about your Past lives. When they come to you, simply write down everything and anything you may remember.

Past Life Regression Therapy

If you have the opportunity to visit a professional past life therapist, then don’t hesitate, just do it. You will be helped to make sense of the information you receive as the professional guides you through a regression. Therapists of this kind are trained and certified by The International Association for Regression and Research and Therapies and the International Association of Past Life Therapists and both of these organizations are likely to be able to help you find a therapist close by.

Meditation

Meditation is another method of exploring your past lives. This is a private way of discovering information about past lives and needs discipline when trusting your own instincts and feelings about received information.

Meditation is often described as a dream-like state of mind and of course, to a great extent this is true. Just as in a dream, images will come and go and for the most part, these images provide us with potential clues as to our past lives. For this reason, one should always be ready to write your recollections down on some paper so that you can ponder over them at a later time when it is more convenient for you. Being highly susceptible to suggestion, your mind is able to recall any information which you instruct it to but on the other hand, if you don’t believe that it is possible to recall past life experiences, then it simply won’t be possible.

For some people meditating requires sound whilst others prefer the quiet and maybe the visual stimulus of a candle flame. By sound, this can be a piece of music, the “om” of Tibetan bells or a recorded meditation session supplied by a therapist.

A relatively new development using sound technology has been shown to have very promising results. This therapy known as “binaural beats” is performed by playing sound waves in each ear but with slight variations in the frequencies. Current studies tend to suggest that a feeling of deep relaxation is instantly experienced, similar to that which is experience by Zen monk when they meditate.

You need a place of peace to practice your meditation, somewhere where you will not be disturbed, whichever method you choose.

Get yourself comfortable either sitting or lying down and ensure you are in a positive frame of mind. When things you do not want to think about enter your mind, acknowledge them and then let them pass. This may not come easily at first but with a little practice it will be second nature. Simply concentrate on nothing except relaxing and focus on your heart. Should any questions arise, ask them and then move on. You will discover the answers come to you when you are least expecting them.

The pictures you get in your mind will help you to determine something in your life whether or not you believe in reincarnation. Of course, you may not be sure the images are from a previous life but sometimes people are able to piece together sufficient information to carry out research and verify the names, places and occasions which have arisen.

While many people tend to discover that they’ve shared past lives with some of their loved ones from this life, the relationship they currently have with those people may differ to the relationship they shared in a past life. In other words, a brother in this life may have been a father in a previous life or they may even have been your son or daughter.

Regression helps people find what they receive to be helpful and interesting, whatever their views on the subject may have been initially.

There is no denying the fact that the belief in past life, or reincarnation, is prevalent across the board in almost every religion, from Christianity to Hinduism to Buddhism to Kabalah. And the interest of humans in knowing as much as possible about their past lives is also quite widespread. But how many of us are interested in knowing about our past lives in order to make a positive change in our present lives?

What lures most people to explore their past lives is the intriguing nature of it. Somewhat like living a real life science fiction movie, remembering our past lives is a little off the beaten path to say the least. The thing to consider is that Past Life Regression can benefit us greatly in our present life.

Modern science has also dwelt a lot on the beneficial features of Past Life Regression and most studies have concluded that indeed, humans can make a positive change in their lives by learning from the traumatic experiences of their past lives.

It should be mentioned here that you need to prepare your subconscious mind to accept memories of past lives by means of affirmation sessions. This applies to everyone, no matter which process of PLR you choose, be it self hypnosis or be it via hypnosis from a PLR expert.

It is necessary to accept certain things before you attempt to use Past Life Regression to explore your past lives.

With a little help, anyone can recall memories from past lives because whether we want to believe it or not, our past lives and our present life are connected via our subconscious minds.

Of course, PLR will show that you’ve had past lives but unless we’re able to use this knowledge to improve the life we’re living now, we will have achieved nothing.

You can use your experiences in your past lives to make changes for the better in your present life. Knowledge of your past will help in your present and future life. You will learn from the mistakes of the past.

Even for those people who simply refuse to accept that there is any truth in reincarnation, and who believe it is the work of their imagination which brings certain memories to mind, they too can benefit enormously from the memories of past life experiences, as far as avoiding similar mistakes in this life is concerned.

Whatever you believe, the experts still advise you to go through Past Life Regression because of two reasons.

*If you make a positive change in your life due to your experience with Past Life Regression then this is due to the fact that what you experienced was a past life memory.

*Apart from the issue of believing in past life experiences, PLR sessions can very often lead to beneficial results by clearing away mental clutter within one’s mind.

What benefits should you expect from Past Life Regression?

*Our present life is often influenced through emotional upsets of a past life and PLR effectively heals those old injuries.

*Self confidence, better judgment, determination and the ability to focus properly on the things that matter are all benefits of PLR.

*PLR can help to prevent you from unintentionally making the same devastating mistakes you made in a past life. These lessons can of course be from minor mistakes to incredibly serious mistakes.

*It stands to reason that if we’ve been through past lives then surely we would have acquired some talents of special gifts in those lives. PLR in turn searches the subconscious and brings these to the forefront so we can apply them in this life as well.

*Understanding the past life experiences answers a lot of burning questions about one’s attributes, personality, characteristics, etc. in the present life.

Try it and see what it can do for you, you have nothing to lose. It just may be the key you need to change your life in a way that you have always dreamed of.

The idea of reincarnation – that you had a past life, or several - is an ancient one, and one that is found on every corner of the earth: Japanese, Australian aborigines, Africans, modern Wiccans and many other New Age religions, all believe that you have past lives, and that your past lives influence who and what you are today.

What you are now and who you believed you are now is an influence of your past life including your health, your mental well being, and your social interactions are all influenced by your past life. This is why it is important to know yourself, who you are and what you are in the past, to be able to make yourself better and stronger in this current life.

Past Life Regression - How can you tell you have a past life? You may not be able to, but in many cases you will have disturbing dreams, or memories while you’re awake that do not belong to you. Many people who believe in reincarnation believe that we all have past lives (though if you do the math, it’s more probable that there are at least some new souls!) Other indications:

* When you saw or learned about a particular culture or arts, you already had a deep connection or attraction to that thing. Based on reincarnation idea, this may be because you were from that region or from that era. To be fully sure of this, you may want to learn some more culture or arts and discover your reactions and the effect it gives you; it may be linked to your origin in your past life.

* Unusual reactions or peculiar response to a historical event that happened centuries ago. This reaction may be explained by the involvement you might have in your past life.

* You might be experiencing different allergies or problems that were not previously present or detected or you might have some psychological or physical problems that you cannot explain which might be linked to your past life.

These are just some of the ways you can glean information about your past life however this is not a confirmation of any sort. A further investigation into things that attract you without any plausible cause and such similarities may give you a hint about the many aspects of your past life.

Self hypnosis or hypnosis by a past life regression therapist may also yield great results in past life regression. These regression therapists hypnotize you to help you delve into your deep subconscious memories.

When you made decision regarding this, go for the process that gives you a deep relaxation method. This is the first technique that you should get before the therapist proceed to the past life regression.

In terms of safety there is nothing significant to worry about. What should happen is that you experience a past life vividly as if you were actually back in time. Although it may not be this intense you should still be able to experience ‘shadows’ and ‘feelings’ of a past life.

As you recall your life in the past, it will generate after effects in your feelings. If you feel good, your past life could have been good. If you feel bad after the process, your past life could have been bad as well. Although some memories and past life events are not good for you, it does not mean that you will have the same bad fate in the current life. It is only a recollection of your past life for your benefits.

All you really need to do is to remember your past life and just move on. The suppression of the past life memories is the cause of all the problems. Once there is an acceptance and understanding about all the experiences in your past life you can move on and understand the present life with a fresh perspective.

Good karma has a great part in the life of people. And because you had a good life in the past, it is believed that you will also have good karma in your current life. But it is your responsibility to keep your soul as good as you can possibly be in order for your good karma to follow you in your current life. But once you change yourself from good to bad, your karma will also turn into bad karma until you realized it and go back to being good.

However, there is often confusion by people over this interpretation. We are not destined to be bad or deserve to suffer because of a past life. With each new life we are literally born anew and it is our own choice to do the things you do. Once you realize that a certain memory is from a previous life, and you are not a ‘bad’ person now, then you can go on to have a ‘good’ life in the present.
