I've been watching the you tube series of The Ghost Inside My Child, and wow I can so relate to these kids and what they have experienced in experiencing their own past life memories. Some of it brings tears to my eyes, some of it, people theories I can agree with.
But there is one difference the majority of these parents came to understand what their child was going through, supported them, helped them find closure as much as possible. I wish my own family had been that way.
It is theorized that if you died violently in a past life you're more likely remember it, relive parts of it. In a sense you are haunted by your own self. This is a part that I can totally agree with. But I have also discovered that once that door is opened, it is possible for more to be revealed. For this has also happened to me over the years.
I had such a hard time trying to grasp my past life memories because I wasn't raised with that belief. There was only 1 life, heaven or hell and that was it. I remember the massacre that not only took my life but that of my tribe, my clan, my family, my people. And that pain is something that is forever etched in my mind, my body on a cellular level but to relive it at the age of 7 is truly as terrifying as the first time it happened back in 1864.
I wasn't given the chance to call it a nightmare, night terrors because this experience happened when I was fully awake and in front of others. It is something I will never forget. And although I have found some ways to come to terms with it, to understand some of the whys behind it, it still lingers. It is the major reasons why I have never been able to follow organized religions why I always sought the alternative paths.
Being a parent myself, a grandparent I can also understand the parents feelings of helplessness, of being afraid for their child and what is going on with them. I know if it happened to my own children or even grandchildren I would do my best to help.
In some ways it also helps the inner child in me know she is not the only one to ever go through this kind of thing years ago. But I also just absolutely find this stuff fascinating as hell. It just proves how very little we actually know or understand about our own souls, time lines and maybe time isnt so specific as we think it is. It isn't so defined by our limited measures we put on it, that we put on energy, itself, our souls, our minds, our capabilities.
Some interesting food for thought.
