I suppose if they want to, Serrao. Once we've become the master of the body-mind anything is possible, I guess. There are stories like these in Tibetan Buddhism.

I agree. Although most of the race is in a narrow vibrational range, as we awaken into our multidimensional nature - here in the midst of material appearances - the whole game gradually changes.

There are other reasons for being here besides learning... healing the world and serving, for one.

And as to whether or not a person would want to - a highly individual decision as well.

Humm--Did I dispute reincarnation? I didn't mean to. I just meant that, as one life of many that is still in physical, you can't entirely join the rest of your soul/soul group/oversoul---whatever you call it.

Yes, whether you want to live in a physical body forever is a person decision. I just haven't heard a cogent argument for wanting to!

Ah, I understand.

IMO, spirit transcends all space and time, which makes how long one lives in that respect irrelevant.

Has to be relevant to our souls for some reason--else we wouldn't have done it. My personal theory, again--that these lives provide an accelerated way to perfect our energy where "holes" or irregularities may exist. As I said in another thread, physical lives are like Spiritual/energetic Stress Tests--it makes the "holes" show up. Add a life stacked to bring out whatever irregularities there are, it is a perfect vehicle for growth.

If you're saying that your soul is all it needs already, aren't you precluding growth?

If you are saying the universe is some kind of soul school, this has great implications.

Who set up the school? Who made the rules? If your answer is God, then I think it is safe to assume He set it up to serve His purpose - the goals are inevitable, the rules are absolute.

We cannot do anything but eventually realize our highest 'expression' (growth) as souls, and there is no way we can do anything that is not intended.

I repeat what I said above - physical immortality, impossible, so long LONG life, irrelevant.

I believe WE set it up. As part of Source, we create as well. IMO

just saying, a group of us asked the Grand Elder, or Chief, of the Guatemalan Maya "is it possible to travel to different dimensions while awake?" and he said

"Yes, it depends on your birthday"

so who knows how the process shakes down lol.

take it for what you wish

At one time I was able to perceive astrally while awake.

I don't recommend it.
