Too Many Lifetimes? I’m stuck on the number of incarnations it takes to get from A to Z. Osho (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh) says, “Nobody is doing anything new. All that you are doing now you have done so many times, so many million times. It is nothing new. This anger, this greed, this sex, this ambition, this possessiveness -- you have done it all millions of times.” Millions? I have a problem with millions. As someone who communicates a lot on the subject of reincarnation, I’ve been regressed dozens of time. And Tara’s spirit guide Abenda has told me of many additional incarnations. So I’m probably aware of about 50 lifetimes. Were I to experience more past-life regressions, additional incarnations would probably surface. The Buddhists say it takes about 600 lifetimes to attain enlightenment and a level of awareness freeing you from the need to return to the physical world. Six hundred is a long way from millions. I decided to have Tara ask Abenda about this during one of her automatic writing sessions. She did and this is what her spirit guide wrote to me: “Richard, you have had 53,042 lifetimes upon the earth. You have had more in other galaxy systems.” “Oh, come on! Fifty three thousand forty two is ridiculous,” I said upon reading the words. For a moment I feared that everyone else manages to pull it off in about 600 lifetimes, but I’m a very, very slow learner. There was more writing: “Almost all of the lifetimes you come back with other loved ones. There have been a few lifetimes where you came in alone, but usually you are followed in, so that your courage and bravado might be buffered. You have had 18,003 lifetimes with Tara in various groups and family situations. You have been partners or mates 13,552 of those lifetimes. You only recall the most vivid or the most beautiful.” “You think we’d be sick of each other,” I said upon reading this. “I’m still upset about the Mongolian lifetime in which you were the man and I was a woman, and you left me and the children to ride off on your horse and fight. What would we find if we explored 13,551 more incarnations?” Tara had no problem with the numbers. I did. Planet Earth would have had to eliminate all traces of countless numbers of civilizations for this to be valid. Atlantis and Lemuria would be like yesterday when compared to the length of the timeline. Discoveries supportive of a longer timeline certainly exist. A glazed wall was uncovered by coal miners hundreds of feet below the surface -- a wall that continued and was found in another coal mine miles away. In a different location, miners discovered a beautifully crafted silver teapot in coal dating back to the days of dinosaurs, Brad Steiger wrote of many such documented finds in his book, “Worlds Before Our Own.” Fifty three thousand forty two? Maybe. I’ve decided not to dwell on it. * * * * * TO RECEIVE THIS “Master of Life” COLUMN WEEKLY AT YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, CLICK HERE AND IN THE “SUBJECT” SLOT TYPE “Subscribe”.
