Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

A Little Bit About Past Life Reincarnation

By Alistair Macdonald

Many people thing that with the New Age religions that are coming out past life reincarnation is something new. This is nothing of the sorts. Just the opposite is true. This idea that you were once something else and are now this human form has been around for quite some time. It started with the idea of Buddha.

For some people, they were just taught to believe. Their religious convictions tell them that when they leave this world, their soul goes beyond this life and becomes something else. These religions are those who are Buddhist as well as some Hindus. Their ancestors have been practicing this for years to come.

In most cases, their societies believe that once a soul leaves this earth, it transforms into a new life. The person that you were before you left was once something else. They do not put measures as to what you were before this life either. For some they were a shrub while others were an animal.

Many people of these cultures find this to be a very good thing. It sort of brings them a peace of mind. Many of them feel that this is the chance at life. They find it to be sort of a new beginning of sorts. That is, they have been dealt this bad hand, but is given the chance to live a new life. How many of us have always said we have wanted that? We would like to try life over and in a different body? Many have admitted to thinking that.

For those who do believe, they take great comfort in knowing that this life is just the journey to another life. They look for ancestors everywhere they walk. The simplest tree could be a cousin who has passed. It's something like the Lion King. We all become something else.

The way they say that you know if you have this trait is that one feels it. They say that you can feel this inside yourself. They will tell you that most of the time you will know because you will have the ability to do something. They say that you might not have known you can do this before it will just jump out at you just like that. That's how you will know.

For those who do believe, they commonly find that those who meditate can often remember as to who they were in a previous life. This is just a tip for those who feel that they do believe in this concept, but who might not necessarily remember what it was they were or the previous life in which they lived. For some people, their religion will help with this, if not there are tutorials out there that cna help you with such a task of remembering.

That is why some practice meditation. This is to relax you and prepare you to tune solely into those gifts. While many think that this is something new which is being mentioned in tons of books and such, it's nothing new. They have been practicing this for years. Now, it is just your turn to see if you too believe in it.
