Past lives discussion continued

While it is interesting to contemplate that one may have lived in the past and may live in the future again, it is also best to undertand the element of time and space when embarking upon the effort to prove it one way or the other. First of all, it is an accepted belief in many parts of the world where it is so strong that it affects the lives of children as parents try to study their words and actions to know if in fact they can prove that the child is a reincarnated being. The Dalai Lama is a case in point, and his own particular life is quite interesting to consider if you understand all that was done to prove that he is the real Dalai Lama, as apparently China is making some dire interference plans for his next incarnation. For the rest of us who are not quite so exalted in our state of spiritual development, at least so far as we know, it often looks like an ego trip rather than a spiritual growth pattern. Very few can understand the exalted shall be humbled concept or the humbled shall be exalted, until we truly learn the meaning of exalted and humble. What the heck? In this world today, most of those who climb to the top of the ladder are not consider exalted but probably crooked and self centered in their desire to make themselves high and mighty. But birthrights such as kings and queens which is now nearly history and archaic has meant that persons were born into families who had stations of power. The humble were the poor and beggarly. True humility is the recognition that one is loved by a power greater than all so that one is like a grain of sand along with all the rest who are so loved by this great power. I say that because I have experienced it and know it to be such that despite the fact of who I am I know that I am loved by that perfect love which loves equally great or small, good or bad. Man cannot conceive it, but that is the truth...Man is imperfect in such degrees as to be unimaginable when compared to that Perfect state of Love which is True Heaven, True God. God is. That is really enough. But the journey of souls seems to be such that earth is a home for the soul to spend in flesh for some time. I am wondering now why we attribute all learning to brain matter when clearly the brain's activity is not the source of information about time's past. There appears to be some other instrument within the human body that enables a person such as myself to have learned of the souls of the past that I have encountered. God's will be done!
