Who decides your rebirth?

For a change, I want to write about religious beliefs. The most common fear among humanity is the life after death.

There are religious and cultural beliefs in every religion that instill a fear in us for wrong deeds and mischievous thoughts. It is firmly believed that someone else up there keeps a big record book on every individual and jots down the good deeds on the credit side and bad deeds on the debit site.

At the death time, a balance sheets is generated and punishment is meted out as per the generated credit or debit balance.

For those who don't believe in this, read further.
* Every thought and action by us gets engraved in the form of magnetic waves or grooves in our soul.
*Each soul is programmed in such a way that it takes another body according to the impressions on it that were embedded on its previous birth.
* Well, the place of birth and parentage shapes one's life-isn't it?

Do psychic mediums use tarot cards?

Have you had any experience with tarot card reading? I have been procrastinating my decision to engage a professional tarot card reader. I wonder what does the whole procedure involve!

I believe tarot card readers do some sort of future predictions-am I right? I suppose it is similar to the one that is widely seen in India where people use parrots to pick up a card from a bunch of cards and read what the card says.

I gathered some tidbits about tarot cards. It seems there are several types of tarot card decks. I don't know which one to choose when I engage a professional tarot card reader.

I have another doubt. Do the so-called psychic mediums use tarot cards to predict the future? I am going to look for some free e-book on tarot cards, their meanings and how they should be used.

I welcome your suggestions.

How big is the universe?

I remember reading this interesting piece of conversation between a man and the God:
Man: See, we don't need you any more. We have technology with which we can grow a 100 foot oak tree in 24 hours!
God: Is it so? Tell me briefly.
Man: We plant the seed in the soil, pour a tea spoon of water, apply the technology and bang! You see the 100ft tree the next day. Then the man started digging the soil.
God: Wait! Do it in your own soil.

Got the point?

We, on our own cannot animate a single grain of sand. Who we are after all when we watch this superb video clip?

Find meanings for symbols in dreams.

Dreams-the very word that brings smiles on all of us-right? Human beings seems to have a special liking to dreams than real life.

While 99% of the people discard their dreams without any further thoughts, the remaining 1% would like to find meanings to their dreams especially when a particular dreams recurs often.

Some people misunderstand nightmares to dreams.

This 1% category of people are also mostly shy to ask people about the meanings of their dreams.

For them, the best place to look for interpretation of dreams is the Dream Central. It is the ideal place to discover the meanings of some of the symbols we see in our dreams repeatedly.

The forum in Dream Central is a wonderful place to ask around for the meanings of dreams.

A handbook of dreams and fortune telling!

Never once in my blog post I have given indication that I am a believer in knowing what is in store in future. I never consulted any fortune teller, a palmist or an astrologer.

I believe in one this very firmly:
"Whatever happens in my life is for my own good only as the divine sees fit". So, what is he point in trying to know what is going to happen?

Still, I received a gift yesterday a paperback entitled, "A Handbook of Dreams and Fortune-Telling"

So, what is in this book that can interest me?
If I dream of standing in a carpeted room, that should be interpreted as an indication of coming riches. My God! So much .....no, it is better I keep my belief to myself.

I intend to gift this book to one of my husband's friends who is mad about these life mysteries.

A purposeful misery.

It never occurred to me that I am not devoting enough time to pass on what I learn in the realm of spiritual development. I know the allegations are misperceived but I am not going to do anything about it.

I know I am on the path shown to me by God and I am sure that path cannot be wrong. But I must confess on one thing. My life perception is changed totally and that is the design of God.

Let me tell you an incident that made me change my perception of the purpose of birth and life after birth.

I met a friend of mine after 25 years. During all these years, there has been no contact at all. He now has a daughter aged 21 but unfortunately her brain did not develop fully since birth. And she is suffering from heart ailments too.

I told my friend that there is a purpose for all this. He might not have been a compassionate person in his previous birth and now he is given the opportunity to shower love unconditionally.

Just then, another friend, who was also present gave another angle to the whole picture. He told us that this could be the other way around too. He went on to explain that the girl would have missed love altogether in her previous birth and now she is given an opportunity to experience unconditional love.

This wonderful thinking hit me hard and square. I appreciated his knowledge sincerely and I thanked him too to have opened up me.

Memorial service in space.

-->Gene Roddenberry

Why we should be afraid of death when we won't be there when death occurs? A thought provoking remark really-isn't it?

I grew up with my grandparents-a generation of very possessive people. In spite of all their wisdom, they spent their life in miserly ways but would want their remains immersed in holy places after their. These were expensive in those days.

This, not at all reasonable wish cannot be understood. Why bother about your remains at all? This passionate attachment to the body even after the death is beyond my comprehension. Obviously, till their death, they didn't realize who they were.

Trying to woo their fancy ideas, a few companies have launched a space memorial service. They will offer to place one gram (yes, just a gram mate) of the deceased person's ash in an aluminum capsule, attach it to a rocket and spend it to space.

For this memorial service in space, they charge $995. The first person who had utilized such a service was none other than the famous Gene Roddenberry, the creator 'Star Trek'. This space service was conducted in 1997. Along with Roddenberry's ashes, the ashes of 23 other persons were scattered in space including that of a 4 year old Japanese boy.

These aluminum capsules are expected to stay in space for several thousand years before falling out like a shooting star.

Do ghosts exist?

There was a discussion in YuWie about the existence of ghosts and your belief in it. I immediately started reading it and gave my reply. It is my favorite subject mainly because, I wanted to clear several misconceptions about ghosts.

As we all know, ghosts are spirits of the deceased persons. These spirits will stay back and hover around its immediate family for a few days. The number of days will vary as per different religious beliefs but they all concur on the existence of ghosts.

The reason for the ghosts to stay behind is their non-refusal that they have just shed their human body. It takes time for them to assimilate this fact before they move on the world of spirits.

There are not at all harmful to human beings. They are all extension of God, the creator of life.

Do you believe in ghosts?

The human spirit travels to the world of spirits after relinquishing its body on the earth.

It enters a world where it is surrounded by like minded souls. I should rather say souls with similar vibrations than like minded as spirits do not have a mind.

If someone dies due to suicide or accident, the soul sometimes lingers around the family it lived because it is yet to reconcile to the fact that it has shed its body.

Some may sense its presence and call it a ghost. The soul is nothing but an energy, an extension of God and as such, it can't bring harm to anyone. If a person says that he/she has earned the wrath of a ghost, it is because the person willed himself to such a state. He/she has been programming the mind for a long time either consciously or unconsciously for an such an experience.

If God has created everything and if God is good, then how can a God create something we call as evil?

Where Angels Fear To Tread.

Where Angels Fear to Tread is a book by Alex J. Morrey. The book touches the principles of quantum physics and the collective consciousness.

Quantum physics says that the act of our observation creates a solid object which otherwise at the quantum level is not a solid object but a a particle and a wave at the same time.

The general human belief that our thoughts originate from our brain is no longer valid. All thoughts arise from a collective consciousness and that we are all responsible for the world at it appears and behaves today.

"Instead of following the current trend of assuming it to be a consequence of objective fact independent of humanity, it is shown how it can be thought of as a consequence of collective belief very much dependent upon humanity, with reality being established by means of a subliminal perceptual consensus in the form of a coercive interaction between all the minds of humanity. This means that we (humanity) engendered the creation of what we perceive and think of as the ‘physical’ reality of the universe."- Universal Belief.

Free past life reading.

Mankind's most coveted knowledge is the wish to know who were they in their previous birth. Without passing judgment, I would say it is such a waste of time seeking answers to this quest when we have so much to learn and understand in this life.

Well, I am not here to deviate people from such desires but in fact, I can guide them to a source that says will give you a free reading of your past life.

This is called as a clairvoyant experience and through such experience, many problems of the present life are said to be solved by persons who are clairvoyant.

Pre birth memories.

"I have had memories of an existence of my soul before my birth from a very young age. I must say I recall sitting around in clothe diapers with the little plastic cover on them wondering about where I came from. The funniest part is that I recall thinking "How am I going to get everything done when I can't even walk yet?"

Those were the words of Toni describing her pre-birth experiences.

I strongly believe in the eternal nature of the soul, so I definitely believe Tony. Yes, this is an exceptional case and not all are likely to have similar experience.

Just before entering our body, we specifically chose the parents, family, circumstances and the environments. This decision is taken with crystal clear clarity.

Those who still retain memories of the life before this are said to have the ability to establish the divine collection as and when they desire.

Tony is not alone; there are more who have reported pre-birth memories. Go to Pre Birth Experience to get acquainted with such people.

Do children exist before conception?

As I am deeply interested in the mysteries of life, I have bought several books on Life Mysteries, life before and after death, astral world, out of body experiences and intrepretations of dreams etc.

I remember reading that before we are born, the time we spend on the astral world following the previous birth's death, may vary depending on the growth of our spiritual development in the previous birth.

For the next incarnation, we choose the parents and place of birth that will further our spiritual growth.

Elisabeth Hallett has written an interesting article on the title of this blog post. An excerpt is given below that will certainly make you read the article fully.

"But are these arrangements hard and fast? Some experiences point to a certain creative flexibility at play in the pre-conception world. For example, a four-year-old girl told her mother that before she was born, she and Jesus used to sit together while she decided whether to be a boy in one family or a girl in another. "She said she decided at the last minute to come to us as a girl," the mother reports, "and then she and Jesus laughed and went off to play till it was time to go." It may not be hard evidence, but it's thought-provoking! "

Thank you Elisabeth Hallett!

Take my assistance says ....

"Hello, I am always available, why don't you take my assistance?"-says our higher self which is also known as inner self.

Who exactly is your inner self? It is the actual 'You'. I mean it is that part that is always in touch with your creator as an extension of the creator himself!

We all can easily communicate with our inner self if we sincerely want to. If achieved, then you can request for any kind of help in any difficult situation and be assured that you will get it almost instantly.

Even in your happy times or in your usual normal mood, you can set up a nice chat with your higher self. You don't need any special chat interface to do this.

Then what do we exactly require? How do we communicate with our God?
Adrian explains it all in his remarkable book "Our Ultimate Reality". I bought this book about 16 months before, printed all of it and been reading with sheer admiration for this man's insight.

Go to his web site, give your email and you will receive 7 free chapters from his book. I am sure you will buy it once you finish reading the free chapters. Because I bought the book exactly in the same way.
