After i read the book Many Lives Many Masters, i have now a different view on life. Although i have good reason to doubt it, it remains convincing to me, and i would like to believe it. It's theory is basically aiming at proving the existence of reincarnation. The new insight i gained was astounding. my reaction was extreme even before i finished the book. I was feeling a chill down my spine, as i contemplated the posibilities of life-after-death. Is it really possible for it to happen. Then what is the purpose for us to live and re-live our lives over and over again?

Previously even before i read the book, my mum went to see a fortune teller or (seer) whatever they want to call themselves recommended by my aunt, to find out the reasons for her grieviences, apparently she felt life was difficult. The fortune teller told her it was her past lives, i repeat past lives, not one but a few lives that were affecting her. In her previous life she was a man and had a complication with her or should i say his wife. Because of that and also other issues, she had to carry her debt to her current lifetime. This occured approximately one year ago.

I realised that when reading the book, there are various similarities . References such as debts to be cleared were also mentioned. When i was in pri sch someone once told me that there is a high possibility that the people you meet in your lifetime, you have met them before. Again, it was also recounted in the book. At this point you must be thinking what a load of BS. Trust me, i myself have questioned this unorthodox parapsychology, many times. But what makes us so sure that there isn't a single tiny weeny bit of chance that reincarnation exists?

People once once thought that the world was flat. Even the greatest scientists thought that the atom was the smallest particle to ever exist, and when they looked further, at whole lot of other crap turned up. My point is, who knows maybe reincarnation do exist/or does'nt. you decide.

i think i've found the answer to the meaning of life. It's about learning.
