Sort out the present moment and the next life will take care of itself.

Again, excellent simple advice!

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

I believe we can have past lives
I'm really happy the research, the book, has been made, helping both those who remembers past lives themselves or parents learning to have the right attitude about it if their children remembers =)

What does it mean: "to sort out the present moment"?

How do you know to do that?

Deal with whatever is presenting itself in this moment. Ideally, don't worry about the past and don't fear for the future. The present moment is what demands our attention.

And after dealing with this moment, something else will present itself in the next. Worrying about what might happen next week is a waste of energy, let alone worrying about what might happen in our next incarnation. If we do whatever is required right now, then we will be more prepared for anything which might happen next week.

As always, easier said than done, but it seems to be the most sane way to live.

Peace

When one "works on a bigger vision", as you duly noted, everything starts to fall into place quite well. Staying in the present, the current moment, was initially difficult for me as well but it has worked quite well (for me personally) in understanding the nature of the Reality despite my initial resistance.

I look on "past lives" a lot differently than most people.

What do you mean by this different perspective on past lives? Can you extend on that?
