I have read this thread ( admittedly not all the posts)with an open mind as i do with anything that may be of interest or concern to me.
Out of all the subjects discussed on GLP this thread has proved to be the most disturbing to me,i am not dis believing this concept but a lot of things do not fit, i would like to ask a few questions,

How do you know this? what proof do you have!

The night my mother died in hospital she contacted me about four hours after in my home, what is going on there?

When my father died i could smell his perfume really strong
every morning for about three weeks.

Where do we go when we have Lucid dreams or Astral travel?
is this controlled?

When i have had moments in my life when i have been at a low ebb, i get a voice in my head that warns or guides me which i have now learnt to listen to.

Lastly for now, when i was around three yrs old my mum would walk me past a local church although i had never been in this church, i had this really strong image that she had left me in a straw cot up inside the roof of the church, i would ask her 'Why did you leave me in that church?' obviously she was feaked out by this. I clearly was remebering something from a past life.
