subject: The Spiritual Hologram, [print this page] I get asked a lot if I believe in reincarnation. My answer is no. Am I open to the possibility? Sure! Why would anyone want to be "closed-minded" to life? Well, I know why many are, but let us not digress. Well then, what about past life regressions and people who remember what's called past life or reincarnation? Glad you asked! Point #1:
I believe we are ALL ONE! Jesus makes that point pretty clear to me and many scientists would concur but from a different paradigm. Point # 2:
The movie Rain Man and the whole panoplia of savant mysteries wherein an individual can "tap" into some segment of knowledge (music, math, geography, etc.) with freaky precision and insight must cause us to wonder "what if" we could tap into a broader field? So, WHAT IF, these past life regressions, incarnations, and the like are just anomalies wherein a person was able to "tap" into some parts of the hologram? Anyway that's where I am, where I logically explain such stories, while being open to something different. Psi research is opening many new doors by the day! Who knows what tomorrow will bring? Seventeen centuries ago, Plotinus wrote, "We must close our eyes and invoke a new manner of SEEING: a wakefulness that is the birthright of us ALL, though few put it to use." Bingo! Separation is an ILLUSION. Religion has taught duality so hard for so long, it's not easy to break the mold and take the scales (religious especially) off of our eyes. It's even harder to find a community of people who even want to go there. But, I have! Woo-hoo! Most esoteric and mystic religions teach that separation is an ILLUSION. Hindu teacher, Patanjali spoke the Oneness that Jesus is credited with, two hundred years before Jesus. For me, Jesus did the best at putting it all together, but that might be because I am most familiar with Christian teachings than I am Zoroastrianism, Islam, or other religious teachings, I mean, one has to work and it takes way too long to master one, let alone several spiritual paths. Thus, it is the spiritual hologram that currently makes the most sense to me. How about you?
