The Connection Between Reincarnation and Channeling and How to Be a Spiritual Channel

This lesson is about the ability you have to communicate with your past lives, and how to develop that ability.

Please bear in mind that these words and concepts, the way I am explaining them to you are only quasi accurate. I say this because in order to describe the spiritual realm in human terms is not possible, it is apples and oranges as they say.

We do our best. If I am to explain an orange to a person who has never seen one but only knows about apples, I can say it is round, like an apple, it is a similar size to the apple, but I cannot explain the sections of an orange, or the juice, or color, those things can only be discovered upon experiencing the handling and eating of the orange.

I am presenting concepts to help you understand and open your mind in a way that may reach you so that you can experience your previous incarnations and be a channel to that spiritual realm.

Whatever or whoever you are in each life, when you die, there is a spirit entity of sorts that continues to exist in the spiritual realms. Your thought formations remain intact, similar to a separate individual, even while another part of you reincarnates on earth. It is similar to having a child. There is only a seed of a child in the mother until she becomes pregnant, the child grows as part of the mother, and then the mother gives birth to a separate individual person, however there is always a connection.

When you are reborn, you are a completely new individual. This is obvious as most people do not recall their previous incarnations even is you firmly believe in reincarnation.

Who you were in a previous life remains intact in proportion to and if and only if, your thought formations and your mind are strong and powerful enough to hold together. As a piece of cloth, if it is well woven, it will endure longer than something loosely woven with poor material. If who you were holds together, in this present incarnation it is possible to communicate with your previous incarnation as you would another person since you where a different personality, culture and so on.

Channeling is communicating with another being. It is possible that you can actually channel to your previous incarnation. This is how you can know certain things or have some natural skills or be born in one culture yet feel an affinity to another culture, or that you may spontaneously know things about another culture without ever having been there before.

The way this happens is that you get intuitions and thoughts. These intuitions and thoughts on subjects that you know nothing about in this life, meaning you have not experienced or studied, are basically what you call channeled messages from your previous incarnation who is an individual being of sorts that is now communicating with you.

I hope you can perceive of these concepts while having a clear understanding and simultaneously having an open mind, realizing that whatever you can now grasp is merely the outer wrapping of a complex gift that you will only know once you have gone inside and started to use and explore it.

Your intuitions about things you do not know about are basically channelled messages from the spiritual realm coming to you through the entity which you once were in a previous incarnation.

As you see, being a spiritual channel is actually quite normal, there is no need for any pomp and ceremony, any fancy style, it is you. It is quite normal. What is abnormal is not being aware of this ability. If you see someone putting on a tremendously big show, just remember that the show is entertainment. But for yourself, have no doubt, it is simply a normal part of an awakened life which you can switch in and out of so fluidly, so simply and so naturally that you can almost not tell the difference if it is you here now or the channeling of your previous incarnations coming to you through your thoughts and intuitions, which of course, both are you.

Humility is very important here. Just because it is a previous incarnation, a spiritual being that is speaking to you as a channeled medium, does not mean that you know everything, it does not mean you or your previous incarnation are enlightened, it does not mean that the spiritual entity you are communicating with has perfect knowledge of God, after all you are not perfect now so it is safe to assume that you where not perfect in your previous incarnations either. Just because you leave the body, does not guarantee and grant you instant perfection.

Sometimes these channeled messages through your thoughts and intuitions could be wrong, they could be foolish or childish. Do not make the assumption that every thought and intuition is channeled wisdom and correct. Although many thoughts could be accurate and of course you should strive to better yourself so the quality of these channelled messages is of the highest degree, however it is not always that. You must bear this in mind using your logic and common sense, your emotions and feelings to know, if this thought is great wisdom or an opinionated subjective idea or belief.

The more you think and contemplate and exercise these abilities, and practice the other exercises necessary to cultivate this connection to your previous incarnations, the stronger the messages will be and the more clear you will be if it is a thought from this life, a memory, or an imposed concept from parents or culture or, something coming from the spiritual realm.

The purpose of this lesson is to open you up to the greater potential that you possess.
