For example, at what point in our earthly existence do we forget about the afterlife we came from? Do newborns and infants have memories of where they were before they were born? I have read that while we are in the womb, we often come and go as we please during the first and second trimesters, so when is it that we forget? I hope this makes sense! And thank you to anyone with an answer!
**I realize that some never forget while others remember later in life. I personally have no conscious memory however I believe it will come back when I return...
Hi Emily, nice to meet you and your little ones. Interesting question(s)--i have wondered too. I suspect many children before a certain age, remember some of the afterlife and also other in-physical lives that they or their "Disk" had (Bruce Moen's term for the larger Consciousness/Light Being that our personalities are part of).
I suspect also that it's probably different for different individuals.
I suspect my future daughter will come in with much of her memory in-tack and lasting into her adult years.
My little brother around the time that he was 3 or 4, use to tell our Mom about his other Mom that he had had, and how he had to hunt and trap rabbits for them because they were poor and hungry a lot. He also talked about how later on he robbed a man and the man shot him and he died. There didn't seem to be a direct, physical reason or cause of why he talked about this odd bit of info. It didn't last particularly long though. Thankfully our Mom was an open minded person and didn't just tell him it was nonsense. She was open minded partly because she was rather psychic and by the time she had had us, she had had a number of "non physical" oriented experiences.
My brother today is spiritually oriented and open minded, and tends more often than not to be a loving kind of person in a more universal sense (and thankfully doesn't go around robbing anyone!). But he doesn't remember talking about those things when he was so young.
I also don't remember having had specific afterlife or nonphysical type experiences when i was younger, beyond believing in some odd, some would say fantastical stuff, and being very aware of people's character beyond their outer facades.
I do remember some of when i was four years old and that my parents told me after them asking me what i wanted to be when i grew up i replied along the lines of, "a doctor to everyone, everywhere..." and that i would always be there (in the kind of, no matter what way). Yep, apparently had messianic delusions at a young age.
I do remember that i did not literally want to be a MD type doctor, but rather that i was *very* empathic and very aware in a more broad, social sense. I remember watching news, or tuning into those around me, and feeling so, so, so much suffering and being so concerned about it, and feeling like we all and i had to do something about it. It was a very big concern of mine, and apparently felt that i was here to help change some of that.
I was (so i was later told) quite persistent with this theme and talk for awhile. My Dad being a musician sat down and wrote a song about this called
Dr. Everywhere.
I also remember having had a recurring dream wherein i was on a space ship traveling vast distances and sent to Earth. Felt like i was on a mission of some kind.
I forgot about a lot of this for a long while. It wasn't until i started to get more intune with universal type of love and becoming a more positive person, that i started to remember some of this beyond what my parents had mentioned (plus i had a recording of my dad's song). (the recurring dream i remembered without my parents help, i don't think i told them that one).
So i would say it's possible to re-remember what we have temporarily forgotten, even in this life. Part of the trick is like tuning your inner frequencies to that frequency wherein you had those experiences, feelings, perceptions, etc, and the more you expand your consciousness, the more you will remember and/or perceive in general.
Needless to say, even though i had forgotten some of those specific feelings, thoughts, and perceptions from when i was 4, Love and what it means spiritually, socially, etc has been on my mind, consciously, a lot in this life (starting again when i hit my teens) and i've always been considered by my peers (and non peers) a rather strange duck.
Big, civilization altering changes has also been on my mind for quite a long time. And it's all related one to another.
