Past Lives

[Parsons]

I observe some people attributing their present 'time' catalyst to past life incarnations where they experienced distress and trauma. Then the seeking stops there. The responsibility is then attributed to 'past life' so in the present life there is no accountability or sense of agency to make necessary effort to work with distortions.

It's funny, I actually believe what is said in your first statement. However, I don't agree with your response as though it is the only choice.

Allow me to give you a personal example in which I made a different choice when attributing current catalyst to a past life:

I was obsessed with post apocalyptic societies, zombies and Halloween for the better part of my life. I didn't really know why since I didn't grow up on horror movies or post apocalyptic movies or anything like that and lived a sheltered childhood. Yet whenever a movie, game, or book came my way I enjoyed it on an obsessive level, even fantasizing about being in whatever situation was portrayed. Before I awoke, I purchased quite a few firearms and in retrospect I think this obsession may have factored in to my decision at the time. I thought it was unrelated until piecing the puzzle together later, but I also loved the Cowboy Bebop movie.

Later, after awakening and starting to learn about my past lives, I stumbled upon the probability that I experienced a 3rd density incarnation during the fall of Atlantis or one of it's major wars. The details are fuzzy but I think my past self survived the initial onslaught and experienced life in a post-apocalyptic world.

After connecting the dots to my former obsession and inquired about origin of Halloween, I quite abruptly lost my obsession. It was no longer a stumbling block and is still not to this day.

So, I could have dismissed this catalyst rather than accepted it and moved past it, but I would probably still be experiencing catalyst related to that. In my opinion, it helped me more purely experience the NOW by removing a stumbling block which was distracting my attention to the past.

I have heard mention of entities experiencing much more harsh catalyst until they remembered and acknowledged their past life. It seems to me like catalyst set for by your higher self which has a condition of being removed when remembered.
