Okay. Not everybody believes in karma or reincarnation. But almost everyone here is a closet romantic, and believes that somewhere out there is "The One".

Lately, from my own religious perspective, I've begun to think that while soul-mates may or may not exist, we do encounter certain people over and over in our journey from birth to death, and back around, and that we are tied together with these people by a web of Karma that stretches back and forward into infinity.

Have you ever met someone you constantly experience deja-vu around? Do you look at their face and see foreign cities you've never been to,at least in this lifetime, and have vague impressions at the edge of your memory of events and conversations with or regarding these people?

Anyone? The floor is now open...

Hey trish!wave


I've been rereading "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot. According to him, everything is connected. There's no such thing as dualism, or locality, at least according to the holographic paradigm. The science is all very mind-boggling, but I feel this sort of thing intuitively. Its very strange, and has me constantly second-guessing myself...frustrated frustrated sigh

I find this topic to be highly interesting, yet somewhat baffling, in a sense.





I have regular bouts of deja-vu. It's weird, sometimes... but not necessarily in a bad way. Hmmm......

Who was it said "you can recognize truth by it's lack of doubt."

Personallly I prefer "The Electric Universe", all things in their place, with all laws of nature functioning as they should and no doubt to be had.

Intuition on the other hand, hmmm I think its there! I think is just part of the connection, processing of plasma energy patterns, magnetism and potential energy becoming kinetic energy doing the bidding of our thoughts and desires.

dunno

I had my fist ever experience of deja-vu at around the age of 9 in the dungeons of Dover Castle so heck knows what i got up to in former lifetimes laugh I didnt recognise it as deja-vu at the time, that was only on later reflection - at the time it was very scarry and I can still see the picture - strange............

Well, I think that's the point really, that it's baffling as hell...laugh

The buddha said in the lotus sutra about the law of karma:

"It is difficult to see, and difficult to understand."

He also stated, about trying to explicate it to another:

"Yui butsu yo butsu"

"The language of buddhas can only be understood by buddhas."

This to me means that it is something we experience in a Zen capacity, with the full totality of our "Now" being...

You may think on something in retrospect, but your thoughts are merely echoes of the original thought. It is only in the moment of the original thought that it can be understood, via the interconnection of those thoughts to everything else...

I can relate, Trish. My 1st experience was when I was quite young, also... not good, either. In fact it was very, very bad & scary. This was followed by predictive dreams, within a dream, and extreme intuitive deja-vu that progressively became more & more regular.

Hellooo wave

I havent read that - yet - will do though cos it sounds like Id like it..... it does ring a bell though (haha) so will look it up in a min.

I think there are many connections which we dont/cant tune into - just as in the quest for discovering the number of dimensions of our universe - the one constant to my mind is change and we have to be alert to those occurences....... this is a really difficult topic - but one of my absolute favourites - and intuitive to the bone I agree thumbs up

I love the science too, its absolutely magical looking at time, space, connections and fractal stuff - it can be extremely wondrous and a veritable voyage of discovery laugh

Heya B.

While you may prefer a stable, platonic solid universe, with all the laws functioning as they should, this is not how things are. At the quantum level, form is emptiness, and emptiness is form.

Matter and energy are an accretion of vibration from higher dimensions into lower ones. This idea is supported by the discoveries associated with M-theory...

absolutely, it frightened me for many years until I began to have other experiences which allowed me to piece things together - the dreams too, pre-emptive stuff can be really scarry, and they were till again, I get other experiences to balance them with, rationality if you like........

just last week I had a really scarry dream about one of my Grandsons, (scuse this topic) his nappy was full of red poo in the dream then next day when they arrived to visit, my daughter told me that her partner had given Tom a yogurt while they were out which was full of red food colouring and his nappy that morning had freaked her - go figure - I cant..... haha wave

In a place of safety Al, I think amazing things are possibe - its also possible that anxiety kills off much of this energy - maybe Im trying to say that I see fear as the enemy of progreaa - dunno dunno

Yes Bodhi, i used to think of these things as just weird stuff that might only happen to a few people, but now, after my calming, my views have changed.

I have met people that i felt i knew them the moment i saw them, traveling far away to meet them. And i did know them spiritually as i discovered later.

I visited people far far away in my dreams. very lively dreams, interactive ones... in one instance i even talked to the other person and when i woke up i messaged her about it (half around europe) and she knew we had spoken and even answered the question i had asked in our dreams without me repeating it. i visited that person later on, on my journey and we had some very interesting descusions, the kind of which old friends have.

I notice people's auras sometimes, when they are particularly strong. how they suck each one out, how they fight in their bright colors between them or how they sometimes unite to a bigger brighter coned bubble at the height of their chins or even above them.
i'm still young in my journey, but i feel inescapably attracted to longitudes and latidutes and i have learned to succump to this and make my way there knowing that there is a reason for it.
I will be on my way again soon, this part of my journey is nearing it's beautiful end. there's someone i need to meet now, one that we have shared many dreams and feelings without much talking. We need to meet, i feel, because we need to learn something from each other... As if, some things have remained untold in some past life and we must answer those inner questions, the ones we never knew that they were there.
Yes, that's the karmic web: you can either move on it's paralell threads or you can take the vertical ones to close in on it's center...

Hi Trish...yes this was the article I had read .....


Soul Mates &Twin Flames by Arianni Masters



Soul Mates and Twin Flames are not the same thing. Soul Mates are other souls that have agreed to connect with you on this planet for a purpose. In some cases it is to clear up karma, in other cases it is to finish unfinished business, and for some it is to accomplish a particular goal together. These relationships may be
a joy to be in or these relationships may be a pain in your life. Either way they are here for a reason.

When Soul Mates first meet they sometimes feel as if they already know each other. They may feel very familiar to each other. Soul Mates can have a beautiful relationship together, but it will take work. Soul Mate relationships may last a lifetime and others may only be for a particular purpose and be temporary. You can have more than one Soul Mate in a lifetime.

Twin Flames are very different and very rare. Twin Flames are two people in two separate bodies that share the same Soul. Twin Flames meet each other in their first incarnation so that they remember the soul frequency of the other being. They are then usually reunited on their last time to this planet. If Twin Flames meet before they are ready they can be the total opposite and not at all compatible. When Twin Flames meet and are ready for each other, it is the most enjoyable experience possible on Earth.

At this point, Twin Flames are almost identical. They truly compliment each other and it is a hardship for them to be apart. As an outside observer it is sometimes hard to distinguish the two people. They also have a very strong bond and often have telepathy with each other. Their lives even before meeting each
other have many parallels. Again, meeting your Twin Flame is very rare on this planet.

So, all relationships serve a purpose and should be honored and appreciated for what they have to offer you in your personal spiritual growth. Thank the person and the experiences for all that you have had the opportunity to learn and clear. Know that ALL relationships are sacred, because they bring us closer to the Light of All That Is. Amen and Be Blessed!
