Past Lives and Reincarnation--You'll Come Back as the Subject of
Your Intolerance
by Scott Petullo and Stephen Petullo
In our society it's considered inappropriate to vocalize your
opinion to a stranger on topics such as politics, religion, sex,
money, racial issues, and abortion, just to name a few.
Everyone has an opinion, and some become very emotional, even
angry if you don't agree with theirs. Their strong beliefs are
sometimes linked to their childhood or other miscellaneous
defining moments in their lives.
But let's not forget about the impact of past lives. If you want
to find the cause of something in your life, whether it be your
fondness for a certain nation or group of people, or your fear
of flying or snakes, it can almost always be traced back to past
lives.
Side note: As we've frequently said, it doesn't matter if
reincarnation exists or not. What is important is that exploring
one's past lives can be very healing, even if it turns out that
the perceptions may be metaphorical, linked to your subconscious
mind.
Do you know someone who spends a lot of their time campaigning
for a cause or political candidate? They may simply believe
strongly in the purpose and truly want to help others, but there
could be other reasons too. For a person who is consumed by
anger against the opposition, our findings indicate that a
strong past life link is often likely: whoever is screaming the
loudest (anti-whatever) could easily have been on the other side
in a past life. Perhaps their actions in a past life as an 1800s
shipping tycoon, for example, were often very dishonest, racist,
unfair, and selfish. Consciously they don't remember this, of
course, but subconsciously it triggers a response. Guess why
they're spending so much energy on the cause now? Answer: they
project their former nefarious self (or selves) onto others who
may or may not (often times not) be creating the negative karma
that they did in the past. Until they get to know themselves
better (spiritually speaking) and recognize their projections
for what they are, they'll continue exclusively seeing the world
as they are or were (instead of how it really is), spinning
around like a dog chasing its tail.
How about a certain internationally famous pop star who, in the
1980s and 1990s, caused a lot of controversy through her sexual
and (some would say) anti-religious images and lyrics? Is it
possible that she lived one or more lives as a powerful
religious figure who, by his or her actions, caused the
populations of entire countries to be more shameful and fearful
about sex? Absolutely. Could this pop star have been destined to
attempt to reverse some of that through her (legal and mostly
harmless) provocative and sexual public image and behavior in
this life, and be ridiculed repeatedly in the press as a result?
Yes.
Do you know someone who despises the wealthy? Do they insist
that most rich people are greedy, mean, and had to be ruthless
and cheat others to gain their wealth? Guess who very possibly
acted in such a way in a previous life and created negative
karma for themselves? Even if someone does obtain wealth
unfairly by hurting others, try not to let it bother you too
much. Have compassion for them and know that they will
ultimately have to pay for it in other ways, even if it is not
until a future life.
It's important to note that your karmic circumstances in life
are not about reward or punishment, but learning and growth. For
example, being born rich or poor, straight or gay, black, white,
brown, or red, attractive or not, fit or not, is not simply
because you were "good" or "bad" in past lives.
However, if you are forced to deal with steep and stressful
challenges in this life related to your family, sexual
orientation, race, appearance or something else you cannot
change, it's possible your soul choose them for you to
experience the other side of things. Or, sometimes it may be
that your soul volunteered to be an example in some way for
those around you, ultimately to help progress human
understanding and compassion, for instance. You may or may not
have been, for example, a rich, straight, handsome womanizer who
used and abused females in a past life (and may or may not have
already balanced the energy in successive past lives). Even if
you were, everyone has been "good" and "bad" in past lives, so
go easy on yourself; it's much more important to focus on doing
the right thing now in all situations than to feel guilty about
how you were in past lives.
If you would like to overcome or at least be better able to deal
with burdensome personal issues, past life regression can shed
new light on the situation, help you to detach from it, and in
some cases overcome it. If you just want to explore past lives
out of curiosity, going back in time can be an eye- opening
experience and help you realize the deeper reasons for why you
are who you are and how you knew the people in your life.
