Masters of the Spirit World

Q. Masters, I have been having experiences—I can’t exactly call them dreams because they are too real. It doesn’t just happen when I am sleeping; sometimes it occurs when I am relaxing or meditating. I seem to be transported to a different place and time, and I am actually participating within this dream. What is going on?

A. Dear Traveler, you are having a spontaneous past-life regression. You are popping back into a life you once lived. All souls incarnate into physical bodies hundreds of times so they can experience the various aspects of human life.

During these lifetimes, you have been many different ethnicities, experienced both sexes, and lived all over the planet. When you began your current incarnation you returned to Earth with amnesia of the wisdom you previously gained. In each new life there may come a point where you must re-experience something you had engaged in previously, to better understand what you are currently going through, or to complete some lesson that you did not finish in that former life.

When you return from your voyage, journal what you can recall of the experience. By comparing your entries over a period of time you will come to know exactly why this past life is drawing your attention now. You will find reasons for certain behaviors you adhere to in this life and know whether you need to change them or, alternatively, if they are a reward from your past. Enjoy your trips.

Q. Masters, I seem to be terrified of everything! I’m afraid of storms, car accidents, illnesses, and most of all death. What can I do?

A. Dear Little One, what you are experiencing is an intense need to know what is coming next. When you feel that you are not in control of your life, you imagine all the worst possible scenarios that could befall you. And because your mind is so powerful, you actually empower the things that you fear the most. So your fear is turning the feared event into a reality.

This fear originates from expectations that you have for the outcome of everyday activities when you don’t feel in control. Start by realizing that control is an illusion. It is simply impossible to make free decisions for all the people who are involved in your day-to-day life. In fact, you can only make your own action choices. Stop trying to micromanage and direct the Universe! Have faith in your soul’s existing choices for your Earth lessons. You did not plan more for yourself to experience than you are capable of handling.

When you fixate upon an event (whether accident, illness, or frightening thing), you so anticipate it that you place yourself into an environment for it to occur. Stop looking for these things and they will not appear in your life. Of course, death at the appropriate time—a time you have pre-selected—will definitely happen. But what is there to fear about going Home? Back to a place where you are loved unconditionally? Where you are reunited with all your soul mates and your twin flame? When the time is right you will welcome death.

Q. Masters, I have friends who have begun talking a lot about something called Reiki, and other “energy healing” practices. Just what are they talking about?

A. Dear Inquiring Mind, illness, disorders, and physical infirmities are all the result of some thing or force blocking the free flow of energy throughout the physical body, creating dis-ease within the body. Your friends are referring to using the universal life-force energy, which is everywhere in creation, to release these blockages and restore the energy flow.

The process is a very simple one: The practitioners, who have a proper intention to help others, pull energy through their own bodies in order to harness it before directing it to their clients. There is a little more to it than that. Practitioners must have their clients’ highest and greatest good in mind, and the client recipients must also want to overcome their affliction. In some cases individual clients may not be ready to finish with the ailment they are facing; they may have more to learn from the experience.

The energy itself is “intelligent”—in other words, it cannot be used to harm another. Energy healing has been in existence for as long as there have been human bodies needing adjustment. It goes by many names—Reiki, Healing Touch, Qigong, Chakra Balancing, just to mention a few. All are basically dealing with the flow of energy and its blockage versus its balancing.

It is not necessary for you to “believe” in each practice in order for it to help you. You merely need to be open to the process. As we always say to you humans, “Get out there and go with the flow!”
