I keep having recurrent dreams about being on a gigantic ship sailing through an ocean of some sort..... < <

Reincarnation isn't exactly a concept I was raised to believe, but every psychic I've ever talked to, including those that help FBI find missing persons, have said that reincarnation is real. I don't know, but I had a friend buy me an hour with a psychic who said I was a tiger in a past life in the times of Ancient Egypt and that I was an alien. I don't know what exactly she smoked, but I wished she could have at least offered some in the psychic reading. However, if she tole me I was a cat in some sort of past life, but more of a fat lazy house cat variety with a serious addiction to cat nip, now that I'd believe.

I do figure on a more serious note, if past lives exist, then there is probably a good reason why we don't remember them. I kinda hope they don't exist because I wouldn't want to forget anything about this life I live.

Have I had past lives? Maybe.

I'm open-minded about this kind of thing.

I've believed in reincarnation all my life but not so sure anymore. There are 2 problems with it.
The soul. And linear time.

It seems more logical to me that if we do have multiple lives--they inhabit parallel universes and all exist in the present. The concept of linear time could be reformed so as to consist of habitation of multiverses with everything co-existing in the present. Time travel would be leaping into a universe next to, or parallel to, the one we normally inhabit.

I imagine 3 possible past, future, or concurrent lives. In the first one, I am persecuted during the Inquisition, imprisoned in a dungeon located in an old Spanish Castle, and released by Queen Isabella who decides I should be put upon a boat bound for the New World, along with the other undesirables she wants to be rid of. That was ostensibly at the beginning of the 16th century.

In the second one, i am a school teacher in Greece and have no idea when it seems to be, but when i concentrate i can see it very clearly. So it's easy to accept how that particular life could be running concurrently with this one.

In the third one, i get fleeting glimpses of a place that seems to be Atlantis. Years ago in a vision, i see a friend piloting a balloon in Atlantis for search and rescue missions....Atlantis could be past or future....but if it exists at all...is probably another parallel universe. And to top it off.....i've always had the feeling that i made a wrong turn somewhere and this particular universe is not the one i belong to.

In my pass life, I was a Thetan. Xenu brought me here on a Boeing 747 and dropped me off on an island with some of my fellow Thetans. Then Xenu decided to nuke the island to kill us all. He then busted out the Soul Catchers (they are things that collect your soul after you have been killed by a nuke and vaporized. They catch your soul because souls float and rise) and I got caught in one. Then I was reborn after Xenu approved of my rebirth.

What soul? We are a mass of gelatinous goo tied to bones with muscle and tendons that is seventy percent water. Rejoice in what we are, not in what we wish we were.

Give it up, ruveyn. These people are either kidding or slightly nuts. There is no way you can convince them to think clearly and logically.

I'm slightly kidding, maybe a little bit nuts. But if I were nothing more tha gelatinous goo tied to bones and muscle that is %70 water ... I don't understand how I could have lived my life or had any of my experiences. I find the above description overlooks almost everything of what it meas to be human.

When I observe the daily brutality, stupidity, ignorance, selfishness of the bulk of the human race I am not particularly anxious to be human.
