Mystical experiences-
I’m slightly afraid that if I post this, I will never again be taken seriously.
I don’t think I actually believe in reincarnation or the persistence of a soul outside of a body. I always say I do not, and all evidence suggests this is the case.
But very strange recent experience. Have you ever met someone who you felt you had known your entire life? What if that person told you that you were an ancient soul and they knew you in a past life, and then started recounting pieces of it. What if, somehow, it all seemed to make sense and you thought, in spite of yourself, ‘Yes, I did that, yes, that is me...’
This human brain is a very tricky piece of work to deal with. That it can do that, or that other people with skill can do that to you, is quite remarkable. Living for millions of years? Well, lets see how we handle it… Bring it on.
