Can you reincarnate into the past?
 
Lets say I was born 2010.

Can I reincarnate in 1500, for example? I heard that time doesnt exist actually, that everything is one, so can I live in the past in my next life or just in the future?

What do you think?

That is an interesting question. I don't think you can go backwards. Maybe in dreams like past life dreams.

Short answer: NO, you cannot. You can only re-experience it, similar to watching a movie.

Time does exist. Time is real. My computer is real. I really am typing right now. Once I post this I can't take it back.

People who think time isn't real and death is an illusion should drive across the median and into oncoming traffic, cause an 80-car pile-up, kill a dozen people, then turn around and face their community and say "but it's all an illusion."

If someone says death isn't real, it's an illusion, that our bodies are not really ourselves (or not real!) - I want to say to them, "Why don't you go kill your children and see if you miss them?"

All this "illusion" business in pop-metaphysics -- it's a trap, a trick, and the damage it does is not trivial.

Hi Axlus,

I think as long as you live here in the physical world, time is linear and moves forward and not backwards. But on the flip side, I also think that you can access anything with the power of your mind from any space and time in the universe, including past lives.

I think that all time, from the beginning to the end, just is. It's like all the space between Land's End and John O'Groats. We can only see the part we are in, but the rest is still there.

So, if reincarnation is real there would be no limit to when you were born or which life you could live. I think every life is like a book. After death we might choose a particular life from any point in history, much like we might choose any book to read from a whole library.

No. If so I would kill myself and reincarnate in the dark ages.

As far as I know time only goes forward . I dont think you can reincarnate in the past . People are regressed in to past lives , they can be progressed in to future lives , but as I understand its more of a possiable life . To astral Jane , you might want to be a bit more careful on what you suggest on your posts . Most of the people reading the posts on this forum are normal stable people , but I dont think you would want the karma if some unstable person acted on one of your suggestions .

No from what I've read.

While time is an illusion in the sense of the concept, it is still perceived as linear to those that live within the 3D. Which makes things happen in an ordered fashion. The present is the result of the past.. Now for an individual to come back into the past, it could create a future that would be altered to what it originally was. If one were to say change the course of history such as not ending slavery, everything as we know it today, would be very, very, different. The reality that existed would be in a continuous state of change.

At that point I think if one were to live in a time of long ago, it would be in a dimension or a reality where that time is still current.

:smile: For the most part i agree with innerlight,but time has no meaning in the spirit realm.time is only prevelant to the earth plane.

Namaste
