Larry
- my name is Dan and just to help you know that you are not alone,
let me give you some background. I am a chemical engineer by training,
Georgia Tech grad. I have worked an engineer in chemical processing
facilities for most of my career and am very familiar with scientific
methods and I would suggest scientific biases. I was raised a catholic
and in that I would suggest I can understand and comment on the upside
down nature of things for you at this time and this I first wish to
address.
As
a youngster, around the ages of 5, 6, 7, I had this terrible affliction.
I would know what people were going to say before they said it, I
knew of things that were going to happen before they happened. I would
also be visited by "beings without bodies", spirit beings
who had something to say or something to do with me and I can recall
those experiences vividly
even today. To help relate to your religious experiences, once, when
I was a child, one of my favorite aunt's was having a conversation
with one of my less favorite aunt's, in which she stated that she
had asked the parish priest about ESP. She related how he told her
that these things existed, that the church was aware of them but that
the church did not want the general public to know about them as the
church was afraid things would get
out of control.
As
a young man, I wished for the abilities I had as a child to return
and slowly over many years they did, but it turned my world upside
down as I struggled with the dilemma created by the unexplainable
difference between that which I experienced and that which had been
drummed into my head as a child that was real, correct, factual and
right. This will cause anyone's world to go upside down, it may even
foster some insanity as we try to explain away our strongest experiences
in terms of what we have been taught to be real, correct, factual
and right and those teachings fail to properly explain our direct
experiences.
As
a fellow scientist, or if you care not to allow me that moniker, at
least as a fellow technologist, we must remember that absence of evidence
is not evidence of absence. In this, I would suggest that the spiritual
world indeed exists and our scientific instruments are not yet sensitive
enough and indeed the body of scientific evidence is not yet strong
enough to cause us to incorporate the spiritual world and all its
aspects as "real". I would remind you that it took the world
about 300 years to incorporate the finding of Copernicus into it's
view of reality, and that we still have not incorporated Einstein's
findings into our thinking fully. I would suggest to you that the
spiritual world is real and we just have not discovered it via scientific
method, though certainly some work has been done and it seems to me
that work is not widely accepted. Now, regarding you questions and
I will speak as a channel as much as I am allowed:
1.
Your mission on this earth is well established, it has to do with
helping people heal in every sense of the word, from the inside
out. This you have the tools to do but they are locked inside you
and your charge is to remember them, relearn them, from others if
need be and to meld and incorporate both physical and spiritual
healing. You have much to learn about the latter but the basis for
that learning is solid, you have it. You just need to work with
your beliefs as some of them are not correct, just widely accepted.
In this you will help unlock the healing power within others, you
will empower them to remember and reconnect.
2.
You have had many past lives, 42 or so maybe more. This may seem
a little vague but the themes of those lives are coming to a head
in this one. Working hard to achieve your mission will facilitate
that and catapult you into a greater existence.
3.
Soul mates - you have many, Peter may have been one but perhaps
more importantly let me comment on the subject of soulmates (at
some risk given what I have to say and the current definition -
you will see what I mean).
A soul mate, in the spiritual sense is someone with whom you in
fact decided to
join with, literally, soul-wise, taking 2 or more souls as we think
of them and joining them as one and incarnating in one physical
body and with one mind - no schizophrenia here, I would indulge
myself in saying the present definition of "soul mates"
in our society is based on romantic notions, not on factual reality
but hey, this is where we are. This definition of soul mates explains
how different people can and do have the exact same memories of
past life experiences, other phenomena and most importantly is aligned
with the ultimate reality, that we are all one, that we are all
made of the same stuff and that we all came from the one and only
creator with whom we may rejoin to any degree at any time. Something
I suggest many religious leaders know but have decided not to tell
us.
I
appreciate the opportunity to partially answer your questions and
I invite you to visit my website (and those of others) to learn more.
Sincerely,
