Spirits
With all the blogs about Religion, God, Christian beliefs and so on, I thought I would take it one step further, and see where it leads to.A few questions first before I start telling you all my experiences. First off, do you believe that once we die, that's it we are dead? Do you believe that when you die you go to another place, for example, Heaven or Hell? Do you believe in reincarnation? And finally, do you believe as I do, that when you die, your spirit is free to roam, until it's time to move on, (to the next life)?
I have over the years had dealings with spirits, and they have come and gone. Ever since my mother passed away a few years back, I have felt her presence around, more so when I was living alone. Now I wasn't told until after my mum had died, that she had told one of my friends, that she will be watching over me when she passes away, including my brothers, family members and friends. I knew she would do this anyway, as she was that type of person, she loved her family and cared for them very much. I like to look at my mum as like a Guardian Angel, always there when needed and to watch over me to keep me safe.
I remember one time, not long before mum passed away, I had to get something from mums bedroom, and as you do, you know all the familiar smells in your own home. Well this one time, in just one spot in her room, there was an unfamiliar scent of perfume. I told mum about it, and I agree with her, that it was her mum, watching over her.
To add a little more perspective to the story, my grandmother, use to go to a Baptist Church every Sunday, and this church was directly opposite her house, a beautiful old church it is. So her faith was in God. I have very little memory of my grandmother, but I know that she was a warm hearted person. The one thing I wish I had the ability, is to be able to hear their voices, instead of just feeling their presence. I suppose when the time comes, I will hear their voices loud and clear. I look forward to that day, (I hope not for a while yet).
One final question before I finalise this blog, If you truly believe in the word of God, or put it another way, believe in the words from the Bible, then how can spirits roam the Earth?
I welcome all comments.

You say heaven and hell don't exist. Then you say: I believe we already died, and we roam..........sorta like hell.
Maybe in your realm of intelligence they don't exist! But who is to say outside of your realm of intelligence, they do exist! There are many things that exist that we don't think exist! Just a thought! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
As for Gentlejim, and that goes for whether you believe in what I believe, that God is an alien.
While I was working away doing the housework I had thoughts that made me think of here, but if you think about it, when people say they believe in God and so on, they say they have a faith. What is faith? A gut feeling, or being optimistic. many people put faith into a religion based from a book, and there has been no physical evidence to prove the words from the Bible are indeed a fact, so I think people came up with the idea of having faith.
Agree?
I think it is possible for spirits to roam...lots of them at the hospital...my great aunt was visited by her deceased husband...didn't speak, just sat at the end of the bed...while she was sleeping...she woke up to see him there...perhaps they do this to let their loved one know they are not alone, although they are dead...she was having a very difficult time with him passing...
They believe in their god...you believe in yours...with spirits roaming until the next life...I cannot see why it would matter so much...we do not know everything!!!...so if they do not share your opinion and call you a liar...how do they really know?...they don't...
Like you said, each to their own
That's right...to each their own...no matter what it is your belief...and it may be a gut feeling and no more...but it is yours to discover. Cheers!!
To your first questions:
I believe in our soul being eternal and returning life after life in order to evolve.
If people believe in past lives, why should they think that this one is the last one? It doesn´t make sense, does it?
Not only do I believe, but I happen to work with past life regressions and also "In between" lives and, believe me, a lot of information about soul progress and soul contracts etc. can be retrieved in that plane.
Many books have been written on this subject "Many lives, Many Masters" by Dr. Brian Weiss, also "The Journey of Souls" by Dr.Newton. They are both psychiatrists who have been using regression work to treat their patients for years, when other methods had failed (for both physical & emotional issues).
When you die, you go to the spirit world where you are reunited with your "soul family" and normally stay there quite a while (years,,) and continue to learn.
Then when you are ready, you are given the choice to return and put right certain things from your last life, some unfinished business with certain people and, in the "planning area", you choose with all your soul family who is going to play which role in your future life - all for your spiritual growth.
Sometimes you don´t have to come back on earth if you are an evolved soul. You may want to choose to go on some other planets to help...
We are on the same wave length.
I wasn't going to mention anything about reincarnation, but you have nailed it, well with what I think anyway. I think you already know as well, that Buddhists believe this. But the only thing that I don't agree with, with their philosophy of the afterlife, is that they think that males are at the top of the list with progression of our souls.
I for one, and not many people know this, feel connected to the past, more with the early 1900's, say from the 20s or 40s. I feel as if I belong there still. A strange feeling, only when I think about it. So in saying that, I may have been roaming for a few years before moving on to this life.
I am really glad to have met you Minerva
I would like to point out that here, WE do not judge! WE do not laugh at people and call them crazy!
WE just accept their point of view and if they need some "enlightenment" and guidance, hopefully WE, or some others, can also give them?
Hopefully this blog will help them?
As for your feeling of belonging to that century, it was probably your last life and you have some memory of it?
Do you happen to get some kind of flashes of images at times?
Maybe someone is trying to attract your attention???
I would like to point out something very interesting:
children up to the age of 6 or 7 are able to remember their last life. Their "imaginary" friend that they are supposed to be speaking to is in fact one of their ancestors who is paying them a visit.
These children are innocent and do not make up such stories, the in fact DO see spirits and also HEAR them speak.
Well, in my opinion, I do not think so! I was trained and received initiation by Masters from the Andes, the Earthkeepers, and they believe in the female energy being restored...
Their message, and also the ones I have been receiving in my dreams and also by channeling, is that WE, WOMEN, are to help men to open their heart and be in touch with their feminine side.
To balance the energies of Yin and Yang in every one.
The Earthkeepers in all parts of the world are connecting with our Mother Earth in order to restore this energy. The Earth being feminine, and the sun being masculine.
Maybe something you still have to learn and master in this life?
Could be "anger", "resentment", "forgiveness"...?
It would be interesting if you could see how you died and who was with you at the time of your death?
Maybe you will recognize someone from this life? This is the feeling I get somehow...?
What would you do if I lived nearer to you? Just a question?
if you were closer, we could communicate much better and easier than the internet
With the internet we can overcome all those obstacles.
I am sure that other members also will join this afternoon.
Punto.
I am interested in past life and regressions...I have heard stories from others regarding this...not that I have or had experience with...like doc's story but this is interesting to me...what can you tell us about this...
How did I get interested?
Maybe because I have always had an inquisitive mind and have been interested in mystical and the "supernatural" since an early age, I suppose...
Then I started hearing about people seeing things etc., and others telling me about their own experiences which I could relate to, to some extent, as I was very skeptical.
For me, I only really believe in things that I can see, with my own eyes.
Then, later on, I started having my own experiences and got interested in the practises of the natives Americans and their methods of curing as I was already into energy healing but was looking for deeper healing methods.
From there on I progressed with learning how to "journey" in altered states of consciousness which opened the door to other worlds, other dimensions...
I can say that this is where most of my information comes from, as well as books which confirm it.
Of course, I was still a bit "skeptical" at that point thinking this was all my imagination until I started doing it for other people.
Their journeying and also channeling revealed many things and answered many of my questions.
It it were not for the fact that hundreds of people who did not know each other came up with similar information, I suppose I would have found it hard to believe it too!
Again, there are many books written on the subject by doctors in psychiatry which are not based on their research, but on case studies.

That´s what we are...
I have heard of such spirits playing games although it has never happened with me.
But I do know a few people who had some "lost" souls in their house and used to hide things, play with the lights, blow out candles etc. - mainly to attract attention!
They are not "evil" spirits but spirits who need to go where they belong - to the light
Sometimes old houses have such spirits from people who had died in that house or on the property.
Some other times people attract those spirits like moths to a flame!
As I said, they have to be released and sent off...
Very interesting blog, thanks Doc
Maybe you would like to share some of your experiences with us?
Had soap dispensers going on without no one in bathroom, certain smells. Sometimes I smell specific smell of my grandmother when I am hugging my daughter – not always, just sometimes.
How interesting and beautiful.
Regarding the numbers, I also think that we should be taking notice of them as they come as messages, or synchronicities...
For example: I often wake up and the same time appears on my digital clock (11.11, 23.23, 3.33 etc..). Many report the same thing. I don´t know exactely what each number represents, but I am sure that there is an explanation for it...
I have read Journey of Souls .. I am now reading the 2nd addition called Destiny of Souls .. I have read many other soul enlightening books in between as well ...
