"How, SPECIFICALLY, is it done?" the woman continued "For those concerned, in thisforward What she’d said, to that point, had been interesting Noever, she was going to tell us--tellAnn once more

Here is what she told us, Robert

When a soul who seeks reentry into flesh selects his preference of parents, he--or she-- clears it hat ht be termed a computer Then, if there is competition, so to speak, for a particular placement, the computer will decide which soul is most appropriate to the task--or, more likely, most in need of it

I call it a co capable of blending the thought patterns of all those who have applied for a siht material is synchronized into an overall pattern, the soul nize that he or she is the one to be selected and the rest, unquestioning, search further

She warned us that it is te, in the state of freedo one of great ambition

"Let me caution any of you who plan rebirth," she said, "to be aware of the restrictions you will face in physical life Demand less in order to accomplish more is the preferable method"

The details will fascinate you, Robert: In the Far East, souls desiring to re-enter matter remain in the abodes of men and women and, when the time is propitious, visualize themselves as cells and enter the wombs of their mothers to be It is sierous Should the child be born dead, the soul becoer a viable entity but one which cannot free its consciousness This is because the soul mind is in deep sleep when rebirth takes place No mental action is possible until a child’s faculties are ready to be utilized

Another danger of this method is that the soul may, inadvertently, select a vehicle which is mentally or physically deformed In that event, the mistake must be borne for life At times, of course, this way is chosen deliberately as athe doctrine of inevitable consequence for our deeds A soul entering a sick or daood cheer, grows faster spiritually than one who, by earthly standards, has everything to live for As, God willing, in Ann’s case

While, in any area of the world, the soul has the option of entering its new vehicle of life at any stage from conception to post-birth, the Occidental method is, usually, to wait until the child is born That way, no soul can ever be locked into the coma I mentioned

The actual process of rebirth depends on the ability of the soul to contract its spiritual bodies--astral, then etheric-- until they can be coordinated with the body of the child This coordination usually takes place immediately after birth and is not easy to accomplish For this reason, the process usually requires the assistance of a spirit physician who can see, in his or her mind’s eye, the spinal cords of both child and spirit bodies and e them

As I indicated, another method of reincarnation occurs as follows: The soul does not enter the body until the child has developed for five to eight weeks That way, the certainty of a proper physical vessel beco," the woman continued, "all memories of the previous life and the interval in afterlife are obliterated and a fresh set of un Occasionally, if the reincarnation is precipitate, the h incidence of such cases in India, for instance

"For several months, the soul sleeps in the baby which utilizes ani, sleeping and perforins to awaken does the child begin to deence

"The soul does not wake all at once but progressively throughout the childhood and youth of the new individual Infrequently, a soul wakes prematurely and recalls, if not its past life, its past skills; thus the occasional appearance of child prodigies

"The soul gradually e of twenty- one, it has incarnated fully Sometimes, a soul will not ’wake up’ until its vehicle is nearly ns of full intellectual activity until then

"And following its new life span, the ile for the mastery of its nature, returns, onceagain to earth in its cyclic search for perfection--and reunion with God

I will say no more about the lecture Further information on reincarnation is not essential to my story; there are books you can read if you are interested My next step was to reopen the closed book of my memory and exath, I was shownspectacle, Robert, in which nothing ithheld I scarcely had time to react as the details flooded before me, a vivid burst of events, each moment reproduced in total detail
