“My hope is that one day your gospel as well as mine as well as countless others can be used to create online something truly living and giving of the self, “The Bible Reincarnate.”
A Note to You:
It has been exactly one week now since I suggested to the world the idea of creating one holy book, “The Bible Reincarnate” for the world to read. A holy book that doesn’t discriminate regarding any particular religion and whose authors like you and me, are those that have been able to think outside of the box of organized religion to be our own prophets, writing our own gospels.
I hope that one day we can unite somehow, online and put our gospels together for the rest of the world to read. From those that I have witnessed reading my gospel, I have been able to see that there are so many of us in the world with the same dream. I have seen those of you in Russia , The United States, India , Indonesia , Taiwan , Brazil , Pakistan , South Korea , Malaysia , Saudi Arabia , Bangladesh , Philippines , Morocco , Bulgaria , & Nepal
Just think there are so many more of us out there that are still unaware of our dream. I do believe that over time they will catch a glimpse of our light.
Also, please note that next week I will be traveling from the U.S. to Hong Kong for nine days to visit family. I hope to continue sharing with you my gospel during that time as well as the Chinese New Year.
To all of us, don’t stop dreaming, meditating, looking within, as well as outside of you/us. All of you are in my prayers, beyond all time and space.
Blessed Be-
Filling the void
It is in my opinion that we are all looking to find that which makes us complete and in some cases, such searches can be defined as sinister or down right evil, depending on who you are speaking too. I see them simply as a way of better understanding the self and reincarnation as has been previously mentioned, and in my opinion, plays a big role in this. An example of this would be an idea I found that I had written in October of 2008, it went something like this:
A little girl, maybe five years old, is molested then killed by her uncle. Cycles happen. The cycle of seasons never go out of turn so why should anything else. Could it be that in a past life the rolls were opposite and the only way to learn the pain that the other felt was to switch rolls to allow the other to better understand not only what the other person felt but how it affected the rest of the family.
My belief is that the cycle will continue to take place until one of the parties looks deep into themselves, considers this possibility, and changes his or her ways. Once the cycle is broken, both can be saved. This may again indicate how not only is your god or goddess within you, it also shows how you can be your own savior as well as the savor of someone else. All you have to do is create that one on one connection with your god or goddess and search within you how it is you are to follow.
Remember, by continuing this possible cycle, you may find yourself only repeating the role life time after life time, dealing with the pain on either side of the spectrum and have to live with it.
Regarding the idea of the little five year old girl, it is also possible that saviors have walked amongst us without our knowledge until after we pass on. Take the example of the little girl and then consider yourself playing the roll of the rapist. You have now rapped the little girl, killed her, and gotten away with it. You are home free and know one will ever know. You pass on to the other side and find your dear grandmother waiting for you at the edge of the light to accept you into the gates of Heaven. As she takes you by the hand, she tells you how lovely Heaven is and how much you will enjoy it until you have to come back to continue your earthly education. She then tells you that she had been reincarnated as the little girl that you rapped and did so to teach you the lesson that such things should not be done. You realize your mistake and choose not to do so again in your next life or maybe you have to now be the savior of someone else’s family by being the little girl and maybe because we are all connected in one way or another, you must be rapped by someone who ends up being your father or best friend from some lifetime before.
We all have our own role to play, our big scene in life based on the connections we have made that link us to the bigger source which caused us to follow through with the idea in the first place to teach and learn from.
If the idea of role reversal is true based on the idea of reincarnation and that cycles can not be stopped until one of the team players decides not to play anymore, can you wrap your mind around the idea of war itself? Think about it, it takes two people to play. Now consider two times hundreds or thousands. Consider the idea that those soldiers that involved themselves in wars now around the world are the same solders that have fought each other in different lands in different circumstances before. That in itself is mind blowing but what really is scary to consider is the idea that if the same solders continue to play there war games, there will be nothing left of there playing field.
Think about this, Steve and Garret are solders that have one plot of land to fight on. Each time one wins by killing the other. Once on the other side, they come back as Tim and Mohammed and again one wins and the cycle continues. Now, through out each life time while chasing after one another, trees have been cut down, bullets have killed the life within the trees such as birds and squirrels. Over time, although the two are still fighting, there plot of land becomes less and less until one day there is nothing left of the plot of land, then what? Now consider the plot of land as our Mother Earth….think about it.
On a different yet similar note, we often find one another asking the same question; “If there is a god, why does god let these things happen?”
Is it possible that when we find something empty within ourselves, we turn to god in such a way that we become so blind we end up killing someone in the process.
There is a saying that god is within all of us. The Christian belief states that God made us in his image. With that said, it would make perfect sense that when we are looking for something within ourselves or are struggling to deal with an emotion or urge we can’t seem to get a handle on, we take on the role of the predator towards someone or something else but in reality/spirituality, we actually are looking at god within the person or subject we are so focused on, we just don’t see it because we are so wrapped up in a material world. Our ways of thinking are so unique but there are common variables that ride along the same road of thought and how we decipher the same message can be all around completely different.
For example, Brian sees Lisa and feels an instant attraction to her. Why? Is it because he knew her in a past life or is it because she has something he doesn’t but what could that be? Could it be that she has more friends than he does? Is it because he wishes he could be the beautiful woman that she is? Is it because she comes from a family that was more caring than his? Is it simply pure love? What happens next could be that he attempts to flirt or maybe he attempts to seduce. Maybe he considers buying her a bag of chips or maybe he considers killing her. What ever it is he is trying to do, even if he doesn’t quit know himself, he is attempting to establish a connection. Why, maybe because he is blind to what it is she has exactly and all he knows is that what ever it is, she has it so he goes about getting it, what ever it is, until he is complete.
All of the above mentioned regarding Brian and Lisa are simply an attempt to show that what we initially go after may not be exactly what it is we are attempting to get. Maybe none of the above are what Brian is feeling or attempting to retrieve. Maybe it is an energy bond that through Lisa, Brian can find his soul mate Jack or Jane or both. What ever the case, I am a firm believer that everything happens for a positive reason.
Love, I have found can possibly be so internal/eternal that it becomes haunting to some. Love can also be so tight that it might explain why some relationships seem to last a life time.
To me, love through the eyes of reincarnation, is an energy once found within others that could possibly be found in one’s current life time but its implications could vary.
When I was growing up I was somewhat subjected to racial ugliness from my mother’s side of the family towards African Americans. Even some of those I hung out with as a teenager, although good guys, made racial comments regarding the idea of a black man with a white woman. This frustrated me as I learned in school about racial equality, the Civil Rights Movement, and the simple fact that we all bled the same color blood.
As I studied the person within me I began to come to the understanding that if reincarnation exists is it possible that race may have played a role in a mixed couple’s relationship today, once in another life. From that one idea spawned a multitude of theories that assisted me to respect why or how such relationships can exist.
Could the same black and white couple today have been all white in a past life? Could the black man now have been a white slave owner who based on karma due to possible mistreatment of his slaves come back as a black man so that he as well as his love whom happened to come back in this life as a white woman like before, could learn that we are all one and that color should not matter.
Could the same couple being discussed both been black in a past life but because one may have felt that being white meant everything, unhappy of the life the person was living in that particular day, karma playing a role in the situation brought her in this life to be white. Again a lesson or series of lessons could be learned from such an experience.
Ideas pulsated through my head with possibilities of many situations that could account for why and how relationships work or don’t work.
How is it that a couple could be married happily for twenty years and then one of such couple leaves the other for another? Is it possible that via reincarnation in a past life one had two loves but had to choose one and now today that person has decided to now be with the other?
Maybe, because it is possible that we live more than one lifetime, that in one life one lover, Jack met Jill but in another Jack met Jane and even possibly in another, Jack as well as Jane and Jill lived in the same life in such a way that Jack had to choose which girl he wanted to be with. Maybe because Jack chose Jane over Jill that in this life time, because Jane felt guilty of taking Jack away for Jill, Jane and Jill become a couple leaving Jack out in the cold. As you can see, reincarnation can explain a lot, at least it can to me, what about you?
