Do you believe in past lives? Perhaps you have even seen glimpes of your past lives ~ Here is an article by Scott Blum called Soul Evolution .. I found of interest to share ~ Blessings ~
From the moment we are born, our souls may feel heavy because they are carrying the weight of all we have lived, loved, and learned in our past incarnations. It is only when we actively seek to work through our issues that we can lighten the load and our souls can evolve. Divesting ourselves of what no longer serves us, such as unwarranted fear, the inability to feel empathy, or self-limiting behaviors, are just some of the many challenges we may face in this lifetime. While some issues we face are easier to deal with because they are the final remains of residue from a past life, other issues offer greater challenges because we are meant to work through them throughout this lifetime.
Often, we expect ourselves to recover quickly from difficult or painful circumstances. When we do not or cannot, we may feel emotionally inept or hopeless. The evolution of the soul, however, is an ongoing process that can take many lifetimes. It is a matter of accepting that even when we do our best there are going to be situations, people, and outcomes that we cannot control. It is also important to remember that your experiences now may be setting the groundwork for future healing—whether in this lifetime or the next one. The more you release in each time, the more you grow and the more your soul will evolve.
The process of releasing is what I call subtraction. This can be achieved thru gaining understanding of one’s accumulated weight and consciously forgiving everyone and everything that has hurt you in the past. This can take a while. The alternative, and complimentary approach, for both should be used, is addition in which we open the heart to receive divine love that heals all wounds.
I very much believe in the past life experiences that we carry with us ..some unaware of their past life history .. while others, such as yourself, Johannes/Sevaji, have heighten awareness ~
The description of “subtraction” is so helpful in visualizing the process of letting go the weight of the past ~ If one can learn how to hold on to the Good past experiences and leave behind the bad or hurtful past – I can see how it leads to an enriching, learning and healing process ~
Thank you Johannes and blessings for this technique – deeply insightful ~
