Okay so we live, we die, and then we repeat the process, but WTF is the purpose of past lives??? Basically we reincarnate and live many lifetimes in order to learn and grow through our experiences. Past lives can be remembered and accessed through past life regression or meditation
Karma is simply "emotional baggage" that we pick up through our many lifetimes, which needs to be worked through and released to enable our spirits to grow and move closer to ascension. This is why forgiveness and compassion are the most important gifts that you can give in order to become as pure as possible.
If you wish to learn more about past life regression and reincarnation, I recommend that you read my two favorite past life regression books:
- Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian.L.Weiss
- Same Soul, Many Bodies by Brian.L.Weiss
