ONE FAMILY PLAN
Reincarnation
"There is a good deal of serious research being done on reincarnation." (Michael Talbot, The Holographic Universe, p 213)
"When individuals are hypnotized they often remember what appear to be memories of previous existences. Studies have shown that over 90 percent of all hypnotizable individuals are able to recall these apparent memories."
Dr. Joel Whitton, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Toronto Medical School has been gathering evidence through hypnosis... "All reported numerous past lives, some as many as twenty-five, although a practical limit was reached when Whitton regressed them to what he calls their 'caveman existences,' when one lifetime became indistinguishable from the next. All reported that gender was not specific to the soul, and many had lived at least one life as the opposite sex. And all reported that the purpose of life was to evolve and learn, and that multiple existences facilitated this process."
"Many of the subjects also experienced profound psychological and physical healings as a result of the traumatic past-life memories they unearthed, and gave uncannily accurate historical details about the times in which they had lived. Some even spoke languages unknown to them."
"But Whitton's most remarkable discovery came when he regressed subjects to the interim between lives, a dazzling, light-filled realm in which there was 'no such thing as time or space as we know it.' According to his subjects, part of the purpose of this realm was to allow them to plan their next life, to literally sketch out the important events and circumstances that would befall them in the future... when individuals were in the between-life realm, they entered an unusual state of consciousness in which they were acutely self-aware and had a heightened moral and ethical sense."(Talbot, p 213-215)
"They would choose to be reborn with people whom they had wronged in a previous life so they would have the opportunity to make amends for their actions. They planned pleasant encounters with 'soul mates,' individuals with whom they had built a loving and mutually beneficial relationship over many lifetimes... One man said that as he planned his next life he visualized ...a sort of clockwork instrument into which you could insert certain parts in order for specific consequences to follow."
If we are all a part of God... "I form the light, and create darkness: I MAKE PEACE, AND CREATE EVIL: I the LORD do all these things." (Isaiah 45:7) "...SHALL THERE BE EVIL IN A CITY, AND THE LORD HATH NOT DONE IT?" (Amos 3:6, KJV)
Now consider more of Whitton's findings...
"These consequences were not always pleasant. After being regressed to a metaconscious state, a woman who had been raped when she was thirty-seven revealed that she had actually planned the event before she had come into this incarnation. As she explained, it had been necessary for her to experience a tragedy at that age in order to force her to change her 'entire soul complexion' and thus break through to a deeper and more positive understanding of the meaning of life."
"...your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." (Psalm 139:16)
"Is it possible that our unconscious mind is not only aware of the rough outline of our destiny, but actually steers us toward its fulfillment? ...in a statistical study of 28 serious U.S. railroad accidents, parapsychologist William Cox found that significantly fewer people took trains on accident days than on the same day in previous weeks." (Talbot, p 216)
"Carefully or haphazardly, we choose our earthly circumstances. The message of metaconsciousness is that the life situation of every human being is neither random nor inappropriate. Seen objectively from the interlife, every human experience is simply another lesson in the cosmic classroom." (Dr. Joel Whitton)
Stevenson's findings...
According to Dr. Ian Stevenson, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Virginia Medical School... "spontaneous past-life recall is relatively common among children... frequently they remember dozens of particulars, including their name, the names of family members and friends, where they lived, what their house looked like, what they did for a living, how they died... frequently their memories are so detailed Stevenson is able to track down the identity of their previous personality and verify virtually everything they have said." (Talbot, p 217)
"There is then - if we judge by the evidence of the cases - no external judge of our conduct and no being who shifts us from life to life according to our deserts. If this world is (in Keat's phrase) 'a vale of soul-making,' we are the makers of our own souls." (Dr. Ian Stevenson)
Again, however, if we are all a part of this 'external judge' then we indeed are the makers of our own souls... Based on the evidence it would appear we are judging ourselves into Perfection... We are the Field [of Cosmic Energy], the Deep Strata [of greater realities]... It is the subconscious Kingdom Within...
"Stevenson has also noted that although his research suggests that we are the creators of our own lives and, to a certain extent, our own bodies, our participation in this process is so passive as to be almost involuntary. Deep strata of the psyche appear to be involved in these choices..." (Talbot, p 219)
"Levels of mental activity far deeper than those that regulate the digestion of our supper in our stomach [and] our ordinary breathing must govern these processes." (Stevenson)
The Tondi
"According to the Batak people of Indonesia, everything a person experiences is determined by his or her soul, or tondi, which reincarnates from one body to the next and is a medium capable of reproducing not only the behavior, but the physical attributes of the person's former self... If a person dies without completing all the lessons they need to learn, their spirit body returns and is reborn in another physical body."
The Aumakua
"The Kahunas call this invisible aspect the aumakua, or 'high self.' Like Whitton's metaconsciousness, it is the unconscious portion of a person that can see the parts of the future that are crystallized, or 'set.'"
"Most people are not in charge of their own thoughts, said the Kahunas, and constantly bombard their high self with an uncontrolled and contradictory mixture of plans, wishes, and fears." (Talbot, p 220)
"Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails." (Proverbs 19:21, NIV) "A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps." (Proverbs 16:9)
Tsal
"The tantric mystics of Tibet referred to the 'stuff' of thoughts as tsal and held that every mental action produced waves of this mysterious energy. They believed the entire universe is a product of the mind and is created and animated by the collective tsal of all beings." (Talbot, p 221)
"We create our own reality because our inner emotional - our subconscious - reality draws us into those situations from which we learn. We experience it as strange things happening to us [and] we meet the people in our lives that we need to learn from. And so we create these circumstances at a very deep metaphysical and subconscious level." (Edgar Mitchell)
Dr. Helen Wambach's findings...
"One criticism leveled against reincarnation is that people only seem to remember past lives as famous or historical personages. Wambach, however, found that more than 90 percent of her subjects recalled past lives as peasants, laborers, farmers, and primitive food gatherer. Less than 10 percent remembered incarnations as aristocrats, and none remembered being anyone famous, a finding that argues against the notion that past-life memories are fantasies. Her subjects were also extraordinarily accurate when it came to historical details, even obscure ones."(Talbot, p 224)
Christ claimed to have lived all lives...
"...Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." (Matthew 25:40)
This also explains why God shows no favoritism...
"For GOD DOES NOT SHOW FAVORITISM." (Romans 2:11, NIV)
And yet some are born, filled with the Spirit from the womb...
"For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. HE WILL ALSO BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, EVEN FROM HIS MOTHER'S WOMB." (Luke 1:15)
While others are born wicked from the womb...
"EVEN FROM BIRTH THE WICKED GO ASTRAY; FROM THE WOMB THEY ARE WAYWARD, SPREADING LIES." (Psalm 58:3)
