When he saw me he whirled around and stared at me in utter fascination. He looked just like my dead husband who I loved dearly. I drove on and couldn't help thinking. Would he look like he did before it he were reborn? The night after her died he came to see me. I was not sleeping and not quite awake but in that state sometimes referred to as hpnogogic... also alpha I believe. He sat on the bed and looked at me with a beatific smile on his face. He was dressed in new clothing and looked wonderful. I think he came to reassure me that he was OK. I believe we survive in some form.... perhaps as an energy field.Marilyn Noadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3965076219235086304.post-65133054863811315512011-11-27T11:27:05.550-08:002011-11-27T11:27:05.550-08:00Thanks for these comments, both.

Thanks for being a part of the original impulse and yes, I'll keep you posted on The Buddha Diaries.Peter Clothierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11525159413387378704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3965076219235086304.post-56029139798279802762011-11-26T18:44:19.091-08:002011-11-26T18:44:19.091-08:00I have always believed in reincarnation and even t...I have always believed in reincarnation and even think it makes more sense than living only once, which would be wasteful of energy which is clearly educable. I believe we come into each incarnation with specific lessons to learn, and attract to ourselves the life experiences that will allow us to learn them. Science teaches that matter never ceases to exist, but merely transmutes itself. <br /><br />I'm sure you have had the feeling of great familiarity upon meeting a new person on occasion. We all have. It seems likely that they are entities we have known before, in previous lifetimes. My present marriage partner is such a being, and we both remember flashes of our previous well-realized life together as Plains Indians with many children. <br /><br />The Cherokee, too, do not name a child until he/she is about 4 years old and the tribe and child know who he is. It's not exactly the same as waiting for the child to tell his name, but similar. And we all know how tulkus are identified, including the next Dalai Lama and Panchen Lama. <br /><br />I'm so glad you've begun trying to determine who your Luka Yves was before because you are sure to both develop your intuition and to catch the moment when he is able to verbalize it before he submits to this present life completely with its requisite amnesia. Please keep us posted on all developments along this line, Peter.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3965076219235086304.post-1250872409322919362011-11-26T14:05:57.176-08:002011-11-26T14:05:57.176-08:00dear peter,Story 1; I have a friend who had 2 son...dear peter,Story 1; I have a friend who had 2 sons. When one of the sons was 3 the son asked the dad if he would be with God after he died. The dad said "yes" and the son said; "it'll be good to see him (god) again"...<br />story 2; My mom will never allow herself to be hypnotized again because she was so traumatized by her one experience with it when she was encouraged to experience past lives... She remembers running in a panic and being overtaken by a rider on horseback. She described in detail the foot/boot in the stirrup which is what she could best see from her viewpoint/eye level. Than a feeling of absolute terror, than blackness. She has always (before and after) this experience felt a real connection to the lost tribes of the southwest u.s. She spent the years from 60 to 80 wandering the desert mesas alone (scaring the shit out of her kids) searching out old camps and artifacts. after a divorce and the loss of a daughter she said it was the only place she could find peace...cyndavallehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05514742375721427929noreply@blogger.com
