Who has read up on dr. ian stevenson's reincarnation work?

[John Smith]

It will change ur thoughts about death and reincarnation!

 

[RoloTomasi]

I've checked it and now I remember I came across this back then, though I did not read extensively. A few children can somehow remember past life events.

Reincarnation scares the hell out of me. Worst possible outcome.

Yes, it may be a relief that we're not gonna be thrown to some hell. But it also blocks out more interesting possibilities. There's also the chance of being reincarnated to a more miserable existence. Man, what a drag.

You don't have to reincarnate if you don't want to

Well, maybe it's not up to me. I'd give it another shot though.

I read so much on this topic and have spoken to people with NDEs. If you dont want to reincarnate you dont have to. It is up to you.

 

[John Smith]

I've read accounts in which people have no choice and are just sucked out of wherever they are and wake up being born or in the womb

 

[Deivis]

I personally think that afterlife idea is rubbish. But don't play victim. Be the Judge and Prosecutor.

If you sign up to the idea of afterlife - and there's somebody - in any shape or form - on the other side waiting to judge you - be prepared to spit into his eyes. Dont arch your spine. Never.

[skitliv]

I don't remember exactly

Well the topic fits the site and I've never seen him debunked to my satisfaction

 

[No Future]

I read so much on this topic and have spoken to people with NDEs. If you dont want to reincarnate you dont have to. It is up to you.

Have you spoken to anyone that's reincarnated?

 

[creatureoflight]

Have you spoken to anyone that's reincarnated?

Sure I have. Everyone on Earth is reincarnated. For example, I am talking to you on this forum and you are for sure reincarnated:) If reincarnation is a fact for the 'souls' described in the book, then why it wouldn't be true for everyone?

 

[creatureoflight]

I'm not here to prove or disprove my beliefs, I am stating what I honestly believe and whoever needs further reading can read up on NDEs and reincarnation cases, they are all over the internet.

Reincarnation seems like a trap to me. I've had oobes and what I can tell you is that on the other side we are all equal and nobody can impose authority over you. If after death they will want to send me back here to learn and grow I'll just tell them that they can stick their lessons up their asses and then I will create my own universe.

You absolutely do not have to incarnate again if you do not want to and no one is going to force you do anything. And Earth is not some kind of school, we are not here to learn kindness or something like that.

Well I know you're right. What can they do to me anyway if I'm immortal.

 

[HelpPlease]

So if you don't want to where do you go

A garage in Buffalo, New York.

 

[throwaway123]

I have and it's all been debunked. There is no proof.
Still I fear reincarnation. It's the worst thing that could happen.

 

[Sailfisher]

It would be interesting to do it over with a bit more wisdom and planning.

 

[pleasethistime]

i dont wanna be born again. nothingness is best if there is no heaven.

 

[GeorgeJL]

Yes I have checked out his work. I believe in reincarnation.

I have read it, and believe reincarnation is real, as is mediumship (although the vast majority are frauds).

But, here's the kicker: I don't want to reincarnate. And I am told by other sources I trust that we actually have a choice in the matter. I've been reading the Bardo Thodol, aka the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and while I am obviously not a Tibetan Buddhist, I see some useful things in it.

The message can be boiled down to "Look, you're dead, so be serious about it. Anything you see, no matter how horrible, is your own mind. You and The Absolute are ONE. Merge. Now is the time. Don't live again; you're free, free forever!"
