TL:DR The author says that the phenomenon of more children remembering their past lives indicates human expansion. Children, they say, are helping humanity evolve beyond limiting beliefs and in so doing, they help usher in a new reality for all humans. One where humans are more than human.
Kids remembering their past lives isn't a surprise to my clients or to me. We are, after all, eternal beings with tremendous potential. We even enjoy the potential to recall our past lives as easily as we recall dreams.
But when a client recently shared an example of a young boy remembering being here before, it had me write this post. That's because the more such stories we hear, the more likely we might try tapping into our own power to perceive what we really are.
There's a reason more young people are coming in clearer. It's the same reason so many kids are coming into the world as transgender. We're going to look at this alongside why it is so many of us don't remember our past lives. Not remembering our past lives should be the rarity. Not kids remembering being here before.
So why is the opposite true? Why is it so rare for people to remember their past lives? And what's causing more kids to remember being here before?
Let's take a look.
Giving up our deeper awareness
The reason nearly all of us don't remember our past lives is because it's just not that important to us. Or so we think.
Past life memories, like dreams, can provide a LOT of value. They can, for example, explain why certain things seem to happen over and over in this life. Past life memories can also help us understand why we must work through certain things we are working through in this life.
Of course, such memories, again, like dreams, can help us realize we're eternal; that there's more to life than this one life. And finally, past life memories can help free us from the fear of death.
Freeing ourselves from the fear of death is HUGE.
Nearly all of us, however, are talked out of the awareness of such an expanded consciousness early on. That's right, we all have such an expanded consciousness when we first get here. As children, we're deeply connected to the place from where we came.
But in short order, the intensity of life experience — physical reality — is so intense it demands our full attention. Physical reality can be all-encompassing and drive our focus away from our connections to nonphysical, the Source of us all, and the experience making physical life possible.
Parents, peers and teachers also talk us out of our connections. We're told to wise up, grow up, be realistic and stop day dreaming. Such admonitions cause us to trade that broader awareness for a more focused one. One focused on this time-space reality. And so we give up our deeper awareness.
The ego gets in on it too
The ego is another factor allowing either awareness of our past life experiences...or the lack thereof.
Many new age gurus claim subduing or killing off the ego is key to awakening. But the ego is an extremely important function. That's right, it IS a FUNCTION, a process going on in our consciousness. The ego is not us. It is, again, a function or process. This function's function is to create the illusion of duality. It helps us distinguish ourselves from our surroundings and other people. Otherwise, we would only experience the non-duality behind the illusion of objective reality.
If this sounds preposterous, I recommend watching the Netflix documentary "How to Change Your Mind". In it a noted journalist goes on an adventure. He decides to try all kinds of psychedelic substances, beginning with tobacco, but also LSD, Shrooms and MDA among others. The documentary also features people participating in trials hoping these substances have lasting and profound therapeutic benefits (they do).
Each test subject, when recounting their experience with the psychedelic they take, tells of extreme states of bliss they experience inside this oneness state I described above. This non-dual state is real. Psychedelics temporarily allow perception beyond the ego, which allows one to experience this oneness directly. It's a profoundly blissful experience. But we're not here to experience it so directly. Thus the ego's function.
The feeling of deep connection
That ego function is "softer" in early childhood, which explains why children have "imaginary" friends, dream more, play more and are so much more care free. Such friends may be imaginary to adults. Adults may not appreciate their child playing and being care free. But those experiences are supposed to be there. They can be maintained too, throughout life. And maintaining such experiences makes life joyful and care free.
But, as I said, we're often talked out of this state. That's too bad. Because life lived from there can be so fun! Not to worry though, we eventually return to that state after we transition. And for many, that happens before they transition.
Many elderly people, as they approach the time of their transition, often talk about seeing family members and other beings comforting them in their transition process. A recent New York Times article tells of hundreds of such people seeing into nonphysical. Some research shows that some 80 percent of people experience such states.
So this state of being isn't unusual. Most of us lose conscious connection with this state early on. And that's why so few of us in our adult years enjoy the joy youngsters' enjoy. Which brings me to the example my client shared.
Children remembering
The example comes from a Reddit thread. The thread features a tweet from a woman talking about something extraordinary about her child, who is six:
The first person mentioning a conversation had with their child.
As you can see it got a lot of engagement. But in the Reddit thread someone posted her own experience with her son, who is four. This young person talks about how he was here before as a father. Then he finds himself back here again, seemingly that being something he didn't want:
The reply adding another anecdote to the conversation.
The thing is, we all experience similar things early on. But, again, we give them up as our ego kicks in, in full. With practice though, a person can, in their adult years, redevelop the ability to perceive things such as past lives and other experiences in nonphysical such as dreams.
Later in the Positively Focused Way, dreamwork and meditation, two potent ways to consciously reconnect with our origins, are included in the practice. Both are simple processes, but putting them into practice isn't easy. Which is why I work with clients weekly.
In time, though, rediscovering the wonder of past lives and nonphysical experiences surfaces. And those experiences can greatly influence our physical, waking lives.
Why are they remembering now?
So why are kids coming into the world remembering past lives? Is there something afoot here? Something that wasn't happening before?
I think there is. I believe the human experience is expanding through a great leap. We've had such leaps before. This one is prompting us to cast away our old limiting beliefs. And as we wrestle with the expansion in the physical, some beings incarnate with their connections in tact, then use those connections to inspire others.
That's what's happening with these two kids. It's the same thing happening with transgender kids. All this is the divine unfolding of humanity moving forward and it's a great thing. Our kids are not here for us to teach them. They're here to teach us, to help us remember what we are.
I'm eager for more of these kinds of things happening. They foretell an exciting future. One where our past life recollections may be as easy to recall as our last meal or our last date with a loved one. And when more people can remember their past lives, I won't be surprised when our entire civilization suddenly changes because of it.
Or maybe I will be.
