Thanks Steve.

I think sometimes we process hard to explain emotions being connected to past lives and others in our present.

Have you ever had someone spur a spiritual experience out from you? I met a friend once and my innermost self loudly declared, "Joe is lemurian." I didn't know at the time lemurian was an actual race of extraterrestrial biological entities people talk about online. It happened the same way I discovered, "I am Sufi." I never heard the word before and had to research Sufism. But I am clearly an average 6'5 Texan Caucasian who was raised Episcopalian by my Mother. While I don't pretend to be Muslim or partake in the traditional prayer, I do consider Hazrat Inayat Khan a dear friend and spiritual anchor throughout my journey.

One time Joe was standing behind me while I was arranging some items on a shelf. When he spoke, something happened... His voice wasn't his normal voice. And suddenly I saw images of us as children. Our skin tone was different, we were barefoot in red sand leaned up against a clay hut. We were playing a game and laughing. Joe spoke again and I was brought back to, "reality."

But did I experience reality? I think so, and I think the past- present and future are all alive and available to us now. Not only that, I think we can connect with other peoples lives.

One time I had an OBE, I was in a body, in someone else's bedroom. I was noticing my arms- I was either Filipino or Hawaiian. I was admiring the light in the room and noticed my guitar off in the corner. This body had more knowledge with guitar than what I do. This experience only lasted a minute, but it was so real. I am convinced this person is a spiritual anchor for psychic phenomenon and is alive and in the present.

But what about memories of old? I have shared memories with an entity that I once mistook as my own. Maybe it is me, but not Eric the 6'5 Texan Caucasian. These emotions were associated with that of, "fallen angel." I had a vivid moment once in 6th grade where I suddenly felt I was leaving my home planet on a cold ship. I was alone. I had dreams over the years that would help me see, whoever was sharing these memories with me, was alluding to being cast out and angels.

So... Past lives... Or just, lives? We are not alone.
