Regarding the transition of our true, energetic selves after this version of our human lives, what's your take on the various types of vessels "we" can be contained in?

Only human? Or multiple forms like animals, insects, microorganisms, plants, rocks, etc.

And can we be iterated in more than one form and/or "place" (universe) at the same time?

Too long a question to put into the Ask Mike box, so I thought I'd ask it here. Thanks.

I don't have it all figured out yet. This post reminds me of this:

I've heard many things about this and have also wondered about it. My husband passed on last February and now my daughter is pregnant. I've been wondering if this baby will be him coming back, or is it too soon for him to do that. At one time I was told that I was my grandmother returned.

There's this idea that really clicks with me about living across time, like multiple streams of consciousness all moving in one direction simultaneously, side by side.
We have access to all the knowledge being experienced by each of our "incarnations" as each seperate one is unfolding. We see it as a time line from past to future but potentially experience everything at once.

Some Theoretical Physicists are now describing the Universe as having as many as eleven dimensions which we only experience 4 of, the 4th dimension being time and space and some even say thought. One of the theories being kicked around is that there's another version of us or several versions occupying these other dimensions. These dimensions each vibrate at different frequencies or wavelengths so we don't have access to them via our 5 senses. We're out of sync I guess you could say.

Even Einstein suggested that since the time/space continuum is curved a straight line intersecting through the curve at two spots would connect those two spots or events. A potential basis for time travel? And where does a neutron go exactly when it blips in and out of existence for a split nano-second while colliding atoms together? Is there another one of us on the other side (another dimension) experiencing it from there?

Lucid Dreaming, and Astral Traveling are interesting too. Who is having the experience if there isn't a physical body? And how do we explain two people meeting in a dream (lucid? astral?) and comparing notes, having been in the same place in the "dream state". Exploring consciousness is an amazing journey.

Past and future lives or multi-dimensional beings living across time? It's challenging to comprehend our multi-dimensional selves from a singularity. So all we have is our own consciousness to explore and travel upon to find our own answers.

In any event it appears we have a choice as to whether we play or not, whether we vacation or not in another dimension before jumping in to another "life experience". And since there are billions and billions of stars with planets circling about them in an ever expanding universe whose to say there aren't myriad choices what kind of life-form we even take.

It boggles the mind and frees the soul.

Happy Travels,

I think on a higher level, we are already all of those things. But on this level being human is the best way to experience consciousness.

Would you really want to come back as a rock? I spose it's an interesting variation on being 'stoned'

Rock On.

Well, I think that if you had been a happy rock, you would have said the same: ”Would you really want to come back as a human?” My guess is that we are talking here about perspective and, further, my point is that each and every level of existence is the best way to experience life.

Maybe some of you are aware of the fact that dolphins have been ”declared” (kind of human arrogance to behave like the all-knowing scientist) non-human persons. Maybe they think that their existence is the best of all, or maybe not. How should we know? As long as we do not cross the frontier of language into a realm of shared experience, even between species, a kind of mind melding, we can not be sure of the way of other beings feel.

M not really replying but asking I lost my husband four years back almost... how would I know where he is born again??? Yes we as humans do reincarnate its much talked about in all our scriptures...but how do we meet up with departed souls.

[Mihai]

One way of being in touch with the departed ones is meeting them in dreams. I consider dreams as a second life because I dream a lot and I often meet my father. He died two years ago. We continue our relation there. Sometimes he is dead in my dreams, but many times he is very much alive and we have a very good relation. I have to say that Freud is not a very good friend of mine. I do not think that he would explain why my beard grew on night as in two days time (I dreamed a lot that night.), or how I could experience colours that I have never seen in this realm.
But I am not convinced that this way is the real one to keep in touch with them.

I think that we are already in touch with them, even if we are not aware of this fact. Consider life as a computer game. You move your character and you are aware of him. He is part of you, but you do not know if he is aware of you. I think that all the characters in this game called life are not aware of their higher self that moves them. Maybe there, your departed one is by your side while you are still playing this game.

Peace and good wishes...
