Striking a balance betwixt past & present?

[Uncle Clover]

As many believe, there is a world beyond this one in which we are different
types of beings than we are here. I tend to remember who I am relatively
soon after incarnating, and I tend to retain a connection to memories of
other incarnations I've had throughout the ages.

During my younger years in any given life, I tend to be somewhat fascinated
& intrigued by these memories - this fascination is always of the body, the
ego mind, the temporary part of any given incarnation that dies and stays
dead, that is not carried from life to life. After awhile, I then tend to
settle into a mode where I don't really care who or where I've been,
realizing that obsession over one's past lives is counter-productive to the
reason why we are here.

To those who are intrigued by the subject of reincarnation and who wish to
recall who they've been prior to this life: do you ever seek a balance in
your quest for remembering? We are not here so we can obsess about who
we've been or so we can recall lost personalities and behave as those we
used to be. Otherwise, if that were all that valuable to our soul's
development, we would simply have been born into a realm where we don't
die. There's a reason we "forget" who we've been, and struggling so hard to
remember is very, very counter-productive - it actually works against you.

Yet being curious is only natural. How do you strive to strike a balance?

Just querious. :-)

Any obsession is counter-productive. Yet learning about who we have been and
what happened in the past can shine a light on the choices we've made for this
lifetime. Viewing the past with the perspective of the present can provide
healing.

Like anything else in life, we act like a pendulum, going too far in one
direction, then the other, eventually (hopefully) settling in the middle.

[The Practitioner]

Reincarnation is a fact and I can say this from my own experiences
with past life regression some other methodologies I've used, no
drugs! There is a great deal more to the life and death process than
most people even want to consider because it's scary and unknown.
My book The Practitioner Life, Death and the Paranormal will provide
further insight into this if your really interested. Just google the
title if you like or check out my blog at http://www.the1stpractitioner.blogspot.com
