Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives

“When clients tell me how much they suffered from the actions of family members, my first question to their conscious mind is, "If you had not been exposed to this person as a child, what would you now lack in understanding?" It may take a while, but the answer is in our minds. There are spiritual reasons for our being raised as children around certain kinds of people, just as other people are designated to be near us as adults.”

“You know, if it weren't for Earth's beauty-the birds-flowers-trees-I would never go back. It's too much trouble.”

“The important thing is to recognize our faults, avoid self-denial, and have the courage and self-sufficiency to make constant adjustments in our lives.”

“We are divine but imperfect beings who exist in two worlds, material and spiritual. It is our destiny to shuttle back and forth between these universes through space and time while we learn to master ourselves and acquire knowledge.”

“Souls in a high state of advancement are often found in humble circumstances on Earth. By the same token, people in the upper strata of influence in human society are by no means in a blissful state of soul maturity. Often, just the reverse is true.”

“During our lives all of us will experience opportunities for change which involve risk. These occasions may come at inconvenient times. We may not act upon them, but the challenge is there for us. The purpose of reincarnation is the exercise of free will. Without this ability, we would be impotent creatures indeed.”

“We bear responsibility in the evolution of a higher consciousness for ourselves and others in life. Thus, our journey is a collective one.”

“When you look into a certain person's eyes on the ground---even people you have just met---and see a light you have known before... well, that tells you something about them. As a human you don't know why---but your soul remembers.”

“We should trust what we hear... (speaking about our intuition)Encourage your inner voice with quiet contemplation.When we ask for guidance, it's best not to demand immediate change, but instead request help with only the next step in your life. When you do this, BE PREPARED for unexpected possibilities.Have the faith and humility to open yourself up to a variety of paths towards solutions.”

“it is what you are striving for which is important, not how you appear.”

“Dr. N: How do you manage to hold each other with no bodies?S: (with a sigh of exasperation at me) We envelop each other in light, of course.Dr. N: Tell me what that is like for spirits?S: Like being wrapped in a bright-light blanket of love.”

“God is not He who is, but That which is.”

“Whenever I am confused about what to do in life, I quietly sit down and think about where I have been and compare this to where I might want to go in future. The answer to the next step just comes to me from inside myself.”

“It’s so ... warm and comforting. I’m relieved to be away from Earth. I just want to stay here always. There is no tension, or worries, only a sense of well-being. I’m just floating ... how beautiful”

“Our planetary memories never die — they whisper forever into the soul-mind on the winds of mythical dreams just as images of the spirit world do within the human mind.”

“Souls are created in a positive matrix of such love and wisdom that when a soul starts to come to a planet like Earth and join the physical beings who have evolved from a primitive state, the violence is a shock. Humans have the raw, negative emotions of anger and”

“At a wat temple in the mountains of Northern Thailand, a Buddhist teacher once reminded me of a simple truth. "Life," he said, "is offered as a means of self-expression, only giving us what we seek when we listen to theheart." The highest forms of this expression are acts of kindness.”

“We know life is transitory. We are more … detached because without human bodies we are unencumbered by the immediacy of human emotion.”

“Despite their many activities, these departed souls are still able to reach us if called upon.Occasionally, a disturbed spirit does not want to leave the Earth after physical death. This is due to some unresolved problem which has had a severe impact on its consciousness. In these abnormal cases, help is available from higher, caring entities who can assist in the”

“Overcoming the obstacles of physical ailments and hurt makes us stronger for the ordeal.”

“The key to growth is understanding we are given the ability to make mid-course corrections in our life and having the courage to make necessary changes when what we are doing is not working for us. By”

“but we can only question what we know.”

“If our soul reflects a small portion of the oversoul we call God, then our guides provide the mirror by which we are able to see ourselves connected to this creator.”

“Reaching our soul is the first step on the ladder of finding our higher power.”

“Most of my colleagues who work with past life clients have listened to overlapping time chronologies from people living on Earth in two places at once. Occasionally, there are three or more parallel lives. Souls in almost any stage of development are capable of living multiple physical lives, but I really don't see much of this in my cases. Many people feel the idea of souls having the capacity to divide in the spirit world and then attaching to two or more human bodies is against all their preconceptions of a singular, individualized spirit. I confess that I too felt uncomfortable the first time a client told me about having parallel lives. I can understand why some people find the concept of soul duality perplexing, especially when faced with the further proposition that one soul may even be capable of living in different dimensions during the same relative time. What we must appreciate is, if our souls are all part of one great over-soul energy force which divides, or extends itself to create our souls, then why shouldn't the offspring of this intelligent soul energy have the same capacity to detach and then recombine?"

“Dr. N: And what do you feel when you look at her? S: A calmness . . . tranquility . . . love . . . Dr. N: Do you and Rachel actually look at each other with eyes in a human way? S: (hesitates) Sort of . . . but different. You see the mind behind what we take to be eyes, because that is what we relate to on Earth. Of course, we can do the same thing as humans on Earth, too . . . Dr. N: What can you do on Earth with your eyes that can also be done in the spirit world? S: When you look into a certain person’s eyes on the ground—even people you have just met—and see a light you have known before . . . well, that tells you something about them. As a human you don’t know why, but your soul remembers. Note: I have heard about the light of spiritual identity being reflected in the human eyes of a soulmate expressed in a variety of ways from many clients. As for myself, I have knowingly experienced this instant recognition only once in my life: at the moment I first saw my own wife. The effect is startling and a bit eerie as well. Dr. N: Are you saying that sometimes on Earth when two people look at each other, they may feel they have known one another before? S: Yes, it’s déjà vu.”

“It does seem a heavy burden that in every new life a soul must search all over again to find its true self in a different body.”

“Without addressing and overcoming pain, you can never really connect with who you are and build on that. I must tell you, the more pain and adversity which come to you as a child, the more opportunity to expand your potential.”

“When seeking guidance, I suggest requesting help with just the next step in your life. When you do this, be prepared for unexpected possibilities. Have the faith and humility to open yourself up to a variety of paths toward solutions.”

“Regardless of their state of mind right after death, my subjects are full of exclamations about rediscovered marvels of the spirit world. Usually, this feeling is combined with euphoria that all their worldly cares have been left behind, especially physical pain. Above all else, the spirit world represents a place of supreme quiescence to the traveling soul. Although it may at first appear we are alone immediately following death, we are not isolated or unaided. Unseen intelligent energy forces guide each of us through the gate.”
