The book A Soul’s Journey is about reincarnation. Hundreds of books have been written about this subject, but this book is different in that, here, I examine the reasons why we reincarnate. The question is not whether we’ve lived before, ̶̶ this is a fundamental truth. Rather the question is, why do we continually return again and again?
My research on this subject has brought me to the understanding that we come back to learn important lessons, to finish business left unresolved, and to forgive and let go of deep-rooted prejudices and resentments. The soul is an energy form that cannot be destroyed. It attaches itself to a physical body to experience this life of duality in order to purify itself ̶ for the sole purpose of returning to its original state of perfection. This realization brings us to the understanding that every thought and action creates an outcome. This state of being makes up our reality of the third dimension. Everything here is based on the principle of cause and effect. It makes perfect sense that universal law is ruled by karma; this is how we learn.
As children, we learn that if we touch a hot stove, we will get burned. Once we feel the pain of our burned finger, we remember not to touch the stove again. The pain becomes an imprint. The memory wants to be resolved in some way, and how we correct the situation is open to a myriad of possibilities. You can leave the kitchen altogether, you can ask someone else to remove the burning pot from the stove, or you can put on a protective glove. We have free will to choose how we want to overcome our defeats. It is up to us to decide.
The past lives reviewed in this exposé were analyzed for their content, and the criteria were as follows: 1) What was the main purpose of that life? 2) What lesson was learned? 3) What was left unresolved? 4) How was the lesson integrated into the soul’s overall understanding? 5) How did the lesson fit into the bigger picture of the soul’s evolution?
The elite of this world, or those who have sovereign authority over the masses, say that we are incapable of governing ourselves. They maintain that we will destroy ourselves and fall into ruin without them. After examining the facts of karma and the premise of this book, I have come to view this as a mere manipulation that only leads to dissent and rebellion. If in fact we are our own judge and jury, then we will never get away with anything, and we will have to pay dearly for our transgressions. Then we will have to think twice before we break the law, especially the universal law of cause and effect.
Taking responsibility for our every thought and action is the only way to block the effects of karma and the cycle of death and rebirth. No more pointing finger or blaming someone else for your reality. No one is coming to save you. You have to save yourself. You have to take responsibility for your own actions. Once you get to that place, then you will develop compassion and empathy for those who are still on the path of self-realization. A Soul’s Journey, is a story of traveling through time to find the truth. You are the truth; you are the way.
