One day one of my favorite teenagers was visiting my house and reading through all of my articles to date. She kept looking up at me while reading and asking crucial questions. I told her to get a piece of paper and write them down, and I was going to make them into an article. I will list them off and then see where to go with them. I don’t have the answers to all of these questions. I do think that asking them is really what is essential.
Why are we here? Did we choose to be here?
How do you get “unstuck,” and how did you get there in the first place?
What are they doing “over there,” and where is it?
Can you disappear? Reincarnation?
Can you come back? “to prior owners” (interesting choice of words)
Why would you need to come back? Didn’t you learn what you needed to learn?
What are we here to learn?
If you have been here many times, does that make you more psychic?
What about near-death experiences?
Principles of energy transformation (can’t be created or destroyed, only can change from one form to another.) How was it created?
Do you know “everything” when you are dead or die?
How was the universe created, and are there parallel universes?
Do some people not change or learn even on the other side?
Why are animals, birds, and insects here?
Is it tiring to exist forever?
Do you die when you have learned and completed what you are here for? Then reincarnate when not finished learning?
What do we need to learn? Is it different for everyone?
Why do we need to be here anyway?
Why might you appear younger or older when you die at a certain age?
What are we going to do next?
When you die, what do you look like and why?
After reading the list, I had to walk away for a few days. I did not ask many of these questions for a long time, certainly not as a teen. I did not find the answers through therapy or in training as a therapist. I was in graduate school the first time I had the thought, “Why are we here?” I was in my den by my desk, looking around. I had a beautiful home, the marriage was good, and everyone was healthy, yet I felt something was missing. The question can only lead in one direction, and that is spiritual. I don’t mean religious. I shut off my TV for ten years and began to read every religion. I began to see that they all said the same thing but with different symbols. I started to see religion as a bridge to the spiritual. I had to do a deep inward dive several times, but not alone. An old Zen phrase says, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”
I was guided to some books on Feng Shui. This led me to a three-year spiritual journey in that program that is hard to describe. No, this form of Feng Shui was not about interior design. It was more about internal alignment. Once you are serious about the question, the doors will open. That program was and is not the end of my study or questions.
I can speak to near-death experiences, though I am unclear why some people have them and not others. For me the third one was instrumental in knowing that consciousness exists outside the physical body. The implications, for me, now tie into realms of higher consciousness and quantum psychics.
I do not know the answer to questions 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, or 18. While there may be theories, I think only God knows for sure. For many of these, faith plays a huge part.
My experience as a medium has given me some insight into 3, 4, 5 and 6, and 11 and 21, and I
have written on these topics in prior articles.
For the remainder of the questions, I believe we need to all learn a similar lesson: unconditional love for self and others. There are other lessons of the spirit that are written into our own unique soul contracts. I have access at times to these for clients. Of late, I have at least three clients a week seeking the answer to “What is my life purpose?”
It was exciting for me to watch her light up as she asked these questions. She will be my only one-on-one student unless some unforeseen event changes my mind. Entirely possible.
I do hope many of you will ponder the questions and perhaps seek to find your answers.
In upcoming articles, I will try to do justice to the questions of Unconditional Love, Soul Contracts, and Soul Mates.
Some of these answers will likely remain a mystery.
I do love quotes, and this is one of my favorites:
“Never regard study as a duty but as an enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later works belong." ‒ Albert Einstein
