Don't get me wrong there is a lot of good in life. To find love, to witness the Arizona sun set, to hold and pet a kitty, to have children and raise them, course when they become teens ugh
lol. They're funner when they're small. Much good in life, but it does wear on the energy body. And if we really do live many lives, then this would wear us down coming and going as we do.
I tried to watch the movie Cloud Atlas. It is about reincarnation and life. It is a three hour movie.
I shut it off after 40 minutes.
It was made too difficult to follow. I read many reviews of the movie. Some people loved it, others hated it.
100 milliion dollar budget to make the movie and it is a loved and hated movie.
But I could not sit through it or understand it.
People who claim to understand past lives are full of it. We cannot know for certain, 100 % certain we lived before.
Oh sure, someone was cleopatra and another person a white knight. Others a druid.
Really?
I may have lived before, but parts of my 'essense,' ended back into the big pool, and I lost myself.
This is why it is important to retain our awareness so when we do die, we can direct ourselves in some way.
The Dalai Lama has managed to do this 13 times. He's had a lot of training.
I will try to do the same. I do not want to come back as a dog or alligator because I could not retain my awareness.
What a life that would be.
