In an earlier article I spoke about energy. In this article I will go more in depth about energy and how it relates to reincarnation. First you have to understand that it is the nature of energy that it can be neither create nor destroyed. So, if we start with the assumption that the soul is energy, which is not such a big leap, then it stands to reason that it can neither be created nor destroyed. There are some people that say, “Wait there are more people living now then have lived in all of history”. Yes that’s true, so they say if that’s true where did all the extra souls come from? There are several theories about this, but my personal belief is that they are souls from lower life forms and from other parts of the universe. I know this is a difficult concept to wrap your brain around but bear with me. If you believe that the universe is infinite and time and distance are illusions, which I spoke about in my Auras, Energy and Intuition article which if you have not read it yet it is available on our website, then its not much of a leap to understand how souls can move about in the universe as they go from lifetime to lifetime. You see our ultimate job as a soul is to learn and grow from our experiences. This particular planet is a fast track for soul development.
For a lot of you this will click as it did for me. Your thinking ok, so why would any soul want to come here if it’s so hard here? Let me answer that question with this question? Why do people climb mountains or kayak down class five rapids? The easy answer is what a lot of people say “because it’s there or maybe, it’s something I haven’t done yet!”
The more true answer I believe is because we are driving ourselves to work through our issues so we can grow. A lot of people now a days seem to have forgotten this though, they are so busy just “trying to get by” that they have forgotten what they are on this planet to do. I was confused with this concept at first when I thought about all the depressed, confused and generally messed up people in the world. Well, for some of those people the lesson they are working on is related to their situation or the situation they are working through is part of their path. So they are exactly where they are supposed to be on their path of development. Others however have strayed from their path. But with guidance, both energetically and otherwise along with a willingness to change anyone can find their true selves again and get back on their true path.
