Ask Bard: According to Abraham Hicks, why do we not remember anything before we were physically born?
Bard Replied: According to the teachings of Abraham Hicks, channeled by Esther Hicks, there are several reasons why we don’t remember anything before we were physically born:
1. Vibrational Frequency: In their philosophy, the universe operates on a spectrum of vibrational frequencies. Our physical plane of existence is considered a dense, low-frequency reality. During the transition to physical embodiment, our consciousness takes on a lower vibrational frequency to experience the limitations and opportunities of the physical world. This shift in frequency, they say, makes it difficult to access memories from higher, non-physical realms.
2. Focus on Creation: According to Abraham Hicks, our primary purpose in life is to focus on creation and experience. The process of physical incarnation helps us focus on manifesting our desires and dreams within the constraints of time and space. Remembering past lives or non-physical experiences could potentially distract us from this present-moment creation process.
3. Clean Slate: They also consider our physical lives as a unique opportunity to experience new things and learn new lessons. Remembering previous experiences could limit our creativity and openness to new possibilities. Coming into the world with a clean slate allows us to fully engage with the present moment and create our own story.
4. Protection: Additionally, Abraham Hicks suggests that not remembering our past lives is a form of protection for our emotional well-being. Past experiences, particularly negative ones, could potentially weigh us down and interfere with our ability to enjoy the present moment.
5. Focus on What Is: Ultimately, Abraham Hicks emphasizes that the past is merely a reference point, and our true power lies in focusing on what is and what can be. By letting go of attachments to the past, we can tap into our creative potential and manifest the future we desire.
It’s important to note that these are just some interpretations of Abraham Hicks’ teachings regarding past lives and forgetting. There are other philosophies and spiritual beliefs that offer different explanations for this phenomenon. Ultimately, whether or not you believe in past lives or subscribe to Abraham Hicks’ teachings is a personal choice.
I was tired this morning, so after dropping my son off at school, and going to get my allergy shot, I drove right home and went to bed. When I got up, that was the time that I went to Panera Bread for a coffee. I was fortunate enough to get the tiny booth (see photo to the left). You can see the order display and cooking area behind it.
I enjoyed the booth for a bit, but the Panera Bread Wi-Fi went down again. They just had it fixed! What’s up with that? If I was a student and planned to meet my classmates here to use the internet to go over some assignments, or someone who comes here to work online, I would be quite upset. For me, when this happens, I just read one of my offline Kindle books, or go home.
While at Panera Bread I read some more of my newly downloaded Sinclair book “Lifespan“. I finished the introduction today. On page #16 he refers to the “Dead Poet’s Society” movie and how the Robin Williams character says “Size the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary”.
I had a great meditation session at 5 pm this evening. I’m getting much better at calming my mind. As I drifted off, focusing on my breathing, with the thought of “Joy & Chill”, I asked the typical questions of late like “What’s Next For Me” and “How Do I Take My Manifesting To The Next Level”. What today’s meditation seemed to tell me is that I should find out the simple and inexpensive pleasures of rich people, and do those, to help bring their wealthy lavish lifestyle into my own life. For example, I remember reading this article about what Tiger Woods eats. He states that “He wants the porterhouse, medium well, and he wants a salad and that’s it.” Well, I can do that! 🙂
This evening I was looking at the various coffee shops in Comox and Courtenay to see if there was anything similar to a Panera Bread “Sip Club” membership. I couldn’t find anything, but this Milano coffee shop, which is near COSTCO, is interesting.
