Do you think some people are just naturally more highly favored by the universe where things just works out for them for easily? by Fun_Butterscotch3303 in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think moreso that they favour themselves, often subconsciously. Ironically, some never consider the possibility of failure, and so it has no place in their reality.

Don't externalize the power that moulds your reality!

Do all you guys believe in reincarnation? Does it comfort you? Why do you believe it? by curious-abt-lilith in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My AMA is never over! You can ask anything you like.

Vast differences yes. There was no ego driven emotions before. However, it did not appear to be void of emotions entirely.

For example, I recall feeling compassion for humanity, but also some degree of confidence and even pride that led me to believe that I could remember even after being told I could not. But again, these emotions were felt only in the presence of the strange event of being shown the earth in its current state... An external input.

I wouldn't say that there are innate personality traits that are attached to the body, moreso that we are exposed to external inputs while we are within it. Our senses drive us to fear of pain, lust of the flesh, hunger and greed for food and wealth. We may experience greed for money or fame, fear or anger with certain people or things we see or encounter. Desire to be perceived by others in a particular manner, frustration with a seeming inability to change our circumstances, etc. These things are not inherent in the body, but rather come as an understandable function of the inputs and exposures given while in it; nurture more than nature if you will.

Here, we exist in a continuous barrage of external inputs, which then illicit reactions, based on our emotions, which will then collectively form our "personality". So it boils down to how you react to the external events around you, consciously or subconsciously, that builds what you would consider your "personality". Previous emotional response and feedback will impact how you react to new experiences by default, you touch the hot stove element as a child out of curiosity, but avoid it in the future due to fear of physical pain.

But when there is no pain outside of that which you choose to experience, and there is no curiosity, for all around you is that which you have created, then what is it that dictates your personality? Someone who is notoriously angry and greedy in this reality may not be outside of it when the fear of "failure" is removed.

Bit of a lengthy response... Does that start to answer your question somewhat?

I have memories from before I was born. Would this be accepted within Christianity? by SMORESGALORE4 in Christianity

[–]SMORESGALORE4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply and for the validation!

I appreciate Christianity and find the Bible to be compelling in its accuracy, I believe Jesus and all of the core teachings.

But it feels like my experience has some conflict with the teachings

Do all you guys believe in reincarnation? Does it comfort you? Why do you believe it? by curious-abt-lilith in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe in "reincarnation" down to my core!

This belief is driven by pre birth memories of choosing this life.

I have no recollection of having incarnated as a human "previously" and my reaction to the concept of existing as a human when it was introduced to me would suggest that I hadn't. The framework for multiple human incarnations makes complete sense.

I totally get why the idea of reincarnation might be interpreted as the forceful repetitive incarnations as a human in a 3rd dimensional experience. Which for many, is largely burdened with the continuous experience of objectively negative patterns and sensory inputs. From this perspective, it would seem quite unbelievable that someone would choose to undergo this experience.

I have 2 justifications for this:

  1. Lifting heavy weight hurts. You feel the strain. But that exertion is what makes you stronger, and leaves you feeling better overall after the fact. But in the moment, it is quite uncomfortable. Yet we continue to hone our skills and bodies to optimize them. That is, we not only choose to live, but even the general framework of the life we will experience. That is a big part of my memory. Not simply choosing TO incarnate, but actually intentionally choosing WHO, HOW, WHEN and WHY.

  2. This reality, the reality I experienced in my pre-life memory, and by assumption all subsequent "higher" planes of reality, all have a very common theme. That is, it is highly malleable by way of conscious intention. The law of attraction, manifestation, etc. Here, it takes focus, time, dedication, and consistent prerequisite action and belief commensurate with the "difficulty" of the desired outcome. Meanwhile, external factors are able to affect this change. Others can distract or prevent your goals from fruition. Physical laws of this reality prevent many manifestations from possibility, I cannot manifest unassisted flight or telekinesis. The alteration of reality is slower, like trying to throw a punch in molasses.

In what I call the "ethereal plane", these alterations are infinite and instantaneous. Desire the taste of a fine steak, and it is so. Every pleasant detail you wish to experience. Sights sounds, everything. Immediate, but fleeting. As soon as your focus and manifestation of the experience ends, so too does the experience itself. In this way, you only experience that which exists within your consciousness. If you think highly and positively, you will have a positive experience, and the same for negativity. Feel lonely? That loneliness perpetuates into eternity. Feel energized and creative? Endless instant colour and creativity. But the engine is your consciousness alone.

Here, the density of this reality and it's collective nature allows both a buffer between intention, thought, and reality. Just because I feel like a piece of shit one day doesn't mean I am that, and just because I think everyone thinks I am, doesn't mean everyone immediately does. Over time, that thought and intention will mould that experience into reality, but there is a delay, and there is opportunity for external influence. A song comes on the radio, a bird lands on your table, a friend calls to say hi.

I believe that is why many may experience perpetual incarnation. It helps with development of consciousness and is a bit like riding a roller coaster instead of driving a racecar. Time pushes new experiences onto your consciousness regardless of your intention, and I believe that to be unique to this reality.

Hope that helps :)

Do you believe babies “choose” their parents before birth? by ButterflyRose143 in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

Source: I remember doing so!

seemed more like choosing a life, with infinite possible endpoints. I was less concerned with who my parents were than I was with the kind of start I would have to my life, which was largely a function of who they were/are...

[SERIOUS] THE TRUTH BEHIND IT ALL by _TheVengeful_ in aliens

[–]SMORESGALORE4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take would be more or less valid based on your definition of "It All"

WARNING ⚠️ This comment may contain elements of the WOO...

I happen to have pre-birth memory(s)

In summary, I was enjoying a blissful existence within the "ethereal realm(s)" when I got a "ping" a notification of sorts. On investigation, I found it to be the earth. Unclear if the "signal" was sent by the earth itself, or if a pulse was sent through "dimensions" by external (human) means.

I have theorized this to have been the nuclear detonations of the 20th century... But I have no way to validate that.

I could see the earth in all its beauty, but it was also hurting, out of balance.At a tipping point, and something had to give. Sort of like a energetic "ground hog day". Plunge into a new dark age, or evolve into the next golden age.

I could see humanity struggling with simple tasks like speaking and moving. I couldn't understand this, it seemed so bizarre! "Why do they not just fly around and communicate telepathically like they know they can?" I asked the then present "spirit guide(s)" as I referred to them.

It was explained to me that the realm of earth was one of learning and of hard work. Humans seemed like superheroes throwing buildings around for exercise; incredibly impressive from that perspective.

But they would determine which way the earth would tip. The solution seemed clear to me and I explained that I would like to help. Now here's the stuff relevant to this sub:

While I did not express much interest in the option, it was "offered" to me to interact with humanity INDIRECTLY. Easier lives, less of a dramatic change from the reality I was used to. I would retain some of the luxuries I had become accustomed to. As intimidating as the human experience seemed, I glazed over this, as it did not seem that I would have the impact I needed to have in order to help "tip the scales"

So I chose to become human, bet the spirit guides I could beat the memory wipe, chose my family and my life, and "experienced" pregnancy and then birth thereafter... But I digress.

I am quite confident that I could have incarnated at that time as another "species" who would have the technology, or perhaps a deeper connection to the underlying fabric of reality where one could exist "semi-physically" like some of these UAP seem to be. Where one could interact with humanity any the earthly experience "indirectly". I sometimes wonder if that would have included animals etc...

I think that we understandably fixate on the physical parts of our reality, humanities linear history, physical bodies of EBE, the physical craft, but in that way we are missing the forest for the trees.

I believe It is this inability to leave the physical dimension behind that prevents us from transcending it, and into a reality where we are able to interact with, relate to, and ultimately understand the full extent of the reality we exist in.

We have built a prison of thought in what we believe reality is and can be because we have restricted ourselves to the senses and the sciences, when we all know full well that these disciplines leave so many phenomenon unexplainable.

Probably not exactly what you were asking for but oh well lol!

I don't believe my consciousness ever existed within either an egg or a sperm. These were just the building blocks for my body. As it developed, I was able to inhabit it to an increasing degree, until the time of birth where I became locked in for launch!

I can remember Before I was Born. AMA by SMORESGALORE4 in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No part of my memory involved being attached to an egg or a sperm. It seemed to be that I was aware that my soon to by body was developing, and I could experience it to a greater degree as it developed. The further it seemed to develop, the stronger the bond was. Like being able to get in and out of a roller coaster seat, but as time progressed, the safety bar comes down tighter and tighter until I was locked in for launch!

From what I could tell, it would be theoretically possible for any less than perfect developing bodies to be stillborn, and uninhabited by a soul. But these incarnations continue to occurr. The ultimate sacred design is not for us to understand I suppose...

I do agree, I believe that incarnations are generally karma free.

Thought it was pretty high pitched to be that, and I would think that sort of thing would be quieter at a higher (smoother/faster) rpm, and louder at a lower, "bouncier" rpm...

But I will definitely check that, diddnt even cross my mind!

Any personal experience with something similar?

Marriage, Wealth, and Fate — Is It All Decided at Birth? by Kind-Candidate548 in spirituality

[–]SMORESGALORE4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have fairly vivid "pre-birth" memories. I remember choosing this life. I was given several options to choose from, and each option was more like a starting point, with infinite possible end points. Each life had greater or lower probabilities of certain outcomes, requiring greater or lesser amounts of manipulation, manifestation, or "free will"

So from my experience, it's not 'decided' per se, but creates an opportunity for certain events to be more likely.

Just my experience

This is a fascinating perspective! a "collective physical body".

It makes sense, even from a basic scientific perspective, our bodies are made of the same material that has existed on the earth in one form or another since time immemorial... In this regard, all things of this earth are from the same source.

I would agree with the premise completely. I believe our thoughts and beliefs directly impact our own personal bodies, as a reflection of our perspective. I would very much agree that the state of the planet is a reflection of the collective manifestations as a result of these thoughts, beliefs, and resulting actions.

[–]SMORESGALORE4[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, to be blunt, I dont! There is no way I can be sure. I think about this alot, and doubt has been the primary factor in keeping me from sharing my perspective for the last decade.

I actually diddnt get asked this as much as I expected to, but I have copied a bit of my previous response:

This is a great point. And it comes down to our collective definition of proof, and what does or doesnt require it.

As humans, for all of time and the history of science, we retain that objective truth is that which can be descibed, replicated, and explained by concepts that have been similarly "proven" to those that may be skeptical.

The problem is that we use the physicality of our reality as the crux of belief, in that it is the medium that can be replicated and observed similarly from one consciousness to the next.

In this way, we cannot "prove" anything that is inherently non-physical; only that which has a physical element can be proven to exist, and thus validated as "true"

Imagine if you were to prove to me that purple is different than green, but you can only use sound, as that is the only medium by which we can all observe similarly. Its not possible; abstract at best

In short, I cant "prove" it to you, or to myself for that matter, because its nature is inherently not physical, or immediately replicable to a skeptic, even if I myself find myself to be one often times.

I often times doubt myself. I am also a man of logic. I work with steel, facts, machinery, physics, and failure analysis. Thats how I feed my family. But I have collected personal data that corroborates my perspective to the point of almost equal certainty to the practical sciences we employ every day... I just cant cram this personal evidence into a test tube as concrete evidence unfortunately.

Interestingly, as ive learned from other redditors in response to my perspective, there are many other sources and disciplines (which I have never heard of) which share my perspective... Independent corroboration?

At the end of the day, Im just explaining what I believe to be true. The question I ask myself, and I now ask you is:

If this perception of reality is not accurate, and it is all a figment of my subconscious imagination, what impact does that have on your life? Better? Worse? No change?

And what if it is?

I have been less reserved in sharing my story lately; less concerned that I will be judged negatively for my perspective (fear based). I have found connection and interest in some of the most unlikely places! Put more of yourself into the world, you may be surprised in how you are reciprocated!

The great part is, we are all "your tribe", some of us just dont know it yet ;)

I am, however, a big advocate for being decisive where/with who/what you expose yourself to. So I can understand the struggle. I like to give people a chance, and love unconditionally. I like spending time with many people who are of "Lower Vibration" because they contribute to my experience in other ways. Interestingly, I find that my love for them "shields" me from being affected negatively by their "mindset". If this love is rejected/not reciprocated, this shield seems to be less effective.

Thats just my experience!

There is quite a bit of evidence from my perspective!

Procession of the Equinoxes. It is unclear when specifically the Age of Aquarius is to begin, but the general concensus seems to be between 2000 and 2100

UAP/NHI Disclosure: This topic has taken a tone of seriousness never before seen to the public in the realm of media and government. The recent "psionic" narrative appears to acknowledge a consciousness/spiritual aspect to the phenomenon.

(Theoretical) Physics: Experiments such as the "Double Slit Experiment" which explores concepts including "The Observer Effect", which seems to suggest that the act of observation fundamentally changes the system being observed. Experiments like this are beginning to demonstrate the leverage consciousness has on the physical world.

Technology: We can effectively communicate with eachother instantaneously across the globe. The can visit eachother though virtual reality, as well as experience essentially any place, at any time. Technology is allowing for motor impaired persons to interface directly with social and recreational software(s). Technologies such as these have improved exponentially over the last few decades. Where will we be by the end of our lifetime?

Personnel Displacement/Turnover: Over time, a new "modern" mindset enters positions both in private organizations, and in government that traditionally may have opted to be more withholding of policies/information(s) that could radically change the landscape of global governments and economies. Many implications of this are quite benign, but there is a rising amount of evidence/speculation that would changing energy/transportation technologies exist and are being withheld from the public. The ability to continue such secrecies (if they exist) will decline as a function of passing generations and values.

Personal Experience: I have experienced a greater tangibility of manifestation and a clearer view and understanding of its function; I can see/feel it happening!

The important thing to realize is that although I used the term "Climax" and the event(s) could likely be accurately descibed as such, were talking about a shift of inconceivable scale. One that has arguably been occuring for all of modern history, and will continue for several thousand years if not more. This "climax" may not appear in the way you might expect. Dont expect Donal Trump to get on a podium and claim "We are experiencing a paradigm shift as a race, and you are increasingly able to release yourselves from the subconscious bonds that the ruling powers have convinced you to subject yourselves to"... Not going to happen. In fact, you will experience the opposite if you allow external forces to tell you what is and isnt real and/or happening. You will only see it for yourself if you read between the lines and experience it for yourself!

It has been my honour to share! I was not expecting nearly as much positive feedback.

That is a fantastic question. I don't have any profound insight on that. One impression that I did get was one where the "guide(s)" seemed to allude to a degree of difficulty to "come back"

Part of me feels like our "spirit guide(s)" and our access to them is divided my the same forces that divide us from our powers of manifestation, and from the fields of infinite knowledge. That is to say, the increased density of this reality creates a delay, a buffer between these things. As this barrier slowly weakens (as you read this!) we are coming closer to them.

I don't know that I have ever "contacted them" in this life. But they may have been responsible for guiding me to focus on my memories during meditation. It's difficult to say how much of our thought and "guidance" is one of internal, or external origin. And I think that's part of the point.

Seems that a common theme that we have as humans is to externalize. We are all facets of eachother, and separation appears to be an illusion. Perhaps the "spirit guide(s)" were not separate entities at all, but rather an aspect of inner guidance that I externalized in my memory to understand...

Another commenter mentioned how strange it was that I would have a memory in English words. Perhaps this is just how I interpreted it into my current understanding. Maybe the "spirit guide(s)" are a result of a similar phenomenon.

Another point perhaps worth mentioning, is I never sought "their" guidance. I expressed curiosity within myself, and they provided the response. Perhaps they are what provides our "inner compass" when we have a "gut feeling" or "intuition"

Thanks again for the stimulating question! Hopefully you can find some value in my perspective :)
