For those of you who believe: Has anyone here had any memories from their past lives? Bits and pieces? Whole past existences? Random deja vu? I'm curious to see what people here have experienced.

I remember bits and pieces of two of my past existences. The earlier one I recalled on my own, and my last life I recalled through past life regression, or hypnosis. I'll relate them to y'all later on the thread, but first I want to hear what you have to say.

Go.

I'm not sure that I remember any of my past lives, if I've had any. But I had many recurring and vivid dreams as a kid. Many were surreal and incredibly, indescribably terrifying.

But I do believe in reincarnation and karma.

I get random deja vu ALL THE TIME. But not neccisarily of past lives. Like, i'll look over at a poster in my room, and remember doing the exact same thing, thinking that exact same thing, everything exactly the same, as in a dream I had . Like i'll imdeitly remeber the dream and that thats what I was doing. I don't think thats what your talking about though, its more of a psyhic thing.
My younger sister does have past live regonition though, she's always telling us about stuff that she saw in a dream that she think was in a past life. And stuff before she was born, like when she was in the womb but not born.

The weird thing about my deja vu is that it happens after the event I remember already happening. I'll be like, "Wait, I remember seeing that one scene in that movie before last night." I know you're thinkinh "Well duh! It's already happened, stupid!" But it feels so real and so weird.

I get deja vu quite frequently, I've had premonitions in the form of dreams. I wouldn't say any of it is related to a past life. I'm not sure if I believe in that sort of thing or not.

I don't care if I existed in a past life. There's nothing I can do alter it, and there's nothing I can do that will somehow alter my relative success or failure in current society. The only reason to even care about a past life is if you care about death, which I do not.

I've had plenty of deja vu stuff, but there's no way I could claim it's evidence of past lives. It's mainly like when I'm reading a book I've never read before and I recall reading the exact same page in the exact same position before. But most of these books were published in my lifetime, so I guess that rules out past lives...

My mom once went to see a psychic. She said my mom was a strict German schoolteacher in a past life. And my dad believes he was a German WWII soldier in a past life because a)when he went to Germany and saw the wall with the names of people who died, that name stuck out at him and b)he died in a submarine, and my dad doesn't like water.

I get deja vu pretty much a lot. It seems to happen more on the holidays though.
You can learn from your past lives, Incandescence, that's why they're important.

I have a friend who says she was a witch burned at the stake in a past life but she's a bit of a fluffy bunny. No past life occurences for me though.

In the dream once i saw my mom explaining to me about this story she heard on the news and the same thing that I saw in my dream happended a couple days later. Then I told her that she had already told me about,and she gave me a really really weird look and told me that story happended that day. I also seem to remember also this stuff in history that I didn't know that I kenw. Like I had never acuired them by watching tv or something.Its really really weird.

Yeah, like I'll see a word written on a box or something and remember seeing that box and using whatever is (or isn't) in the box...even if, before that point, I never used that.

I'm kind of like that. Once I was at a hotel and I was walking up the stairs for the first time while talking to my sister and then I thought that the exact same thing had happened before. Usually deja vu happens to me in conversations.

Deja vu is part of everyone's life, I think, and I don't want to make more out of mine then should be since I don't want to look like a fool.

I don't really believe in reincarnation (except in special cases) or past lives. Not really. Sure, it's possible, but... isn't everything?

Dreams, strange feelings... that sort of thing, I don't know... I just couldn't SAY it was a past life because it would sound so ridiculous. And I'd be lying to myself.
I'm not even angry... I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me... And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
