Wouldnt it be great if we could come back again?

What do you think you have learned from this lifetime (so far)?

I have a firm belief in reincarnation. I have an unreasoning fear (almost phobia) of driving/walking/going underneath bridges while trains are going over. Scares me to death. I will pull over and wait before I go underneath it. Seriously. It's deadly. Don't do it.

I also have a recurring dream from childhood. (I don't have it much anymore.) I'm (for some reason) standing on the spillway of a dam and the claxon sounds, indicating that they are gong to open the spillway. I try to get off the spillway but I can't, and the water starts coming over, and I'm swept down into the really big pipe and then I'm sucked into the big turbines and shredded by the blades.

Please see "Seriousness that changed you." for what I've learned about life.

you should read that book, cougar. that's how Dr Weiss got involved in past life regression. He had a patient who was ALL messed up with phobias and anxieties, and he unearthed something like 83 past lives....he was a skeptic, and this turned him....at the same time, it unveils a psuedo religion that coincides with my own pick- and- choosist belief system.....

you probably died in a flood in another life. and possibly witnessed a train derailment or something.....

I have a fear of being buried alive >>>>ick!
and also having my eyes gouged out.........oooooooo!

anyone else?

Fears: falling from heights, even small ones, like stepstools. (I'm not afraid of heights, per se, just falling from them. I've actually enjoyed very high places, just so long as I'm sure i'm not likely to plummet from them.

Fire.

Where/who I've been before: I know of more than a few. No Cleopatra/Nefertiti/famous historical individual nonsense. But Buddhist Teacher/Mystic, Native American craftsperson - basketweaver or somethin' like that, WWII German U-Boat captain.

There appears to be a website that will tell you about your most recent past life incarnation ...

Past Life Diagnosis

Mine, which is clearly wrong: (I am not now, nor have I ever been a Canadian, dammit).

Quote:
Diagnosis: I do not know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly incarnation.

You were born somewhere around territory of modern Ontario approximately on 975.

Your profession was entertainer, musician, poet, temple-dancer.

Your brief psychological profile in that past life:
You always liked to travel, to investigate, could have been detective or spy.

Lesson, that your last past life brought to present:
You should develop your talent for love, happiness and enthusiasm and to distribute these feelings to all people.
It's more of a feelgood enlightenment fortune cookie.

Hmmm...

I do not know how you feel about it, but you were female in your last earthly incarnation.

You were born somewhere around territory of modern Spain approximately on 375. Your profession was artist, magician, fortune teller.

Your brief psychological profile in that past life:
Natural talent of psychologist, you knew how to use the opportunities. Cold-blooded and calm in any situation.

Lesson, that your last past life brought to present:
Your problem -- to learn determination and persistency. Every misfortune should crash upon your strong will.

Now you remember?

Maybe you were though. Perhaps you didn't like the liberalness and socialism...and that is why you are the way you are now.
