- 0:26Hello.
- 0:27Let's see.
- 0:28Can you see me?
- 0:30I don't think you can see me.
- 0:31Get out of there.
- 0:36trying to get rid of this I don't want that anymore.
- 0:41there we go
- 0:43I think you can see me.
- 0:44Hello!
- 0:46Welcome to Soul Elevation, guiding your ascension to new heights.
- 0:51I'm your host, Cara Goodwin.
- 0:52I'm so happy to be here with you on Monday, October 12th.
- 0:57I am using a new software.
- 1:00And so this is a little bit of a trial.
- 1:03I am gonna be talking about reincarnation today, so this is a proper live stream, but I
- 1:10just let me have some training wheels here while I try to figure out what is going on.
- 1:14Um those of you who watch on YouTube, of course we have a lot of people who just listen to the audio, but for those of you who listen on YouTube, who watch on YouTube, you will know
- 1:26that a lot of times when I go live on YouTube, um on Mondays and Fridays, that the video lags and I don't know why that happens.
- 1:38And when I watch it only happens
- 1:40When I'm watching on Chrome, so if I watch on the YouTube app or if I watch on Brave or Safari, those browsers, it doesn't happen.
- 1:50But on Chrome, which is a Google product, and so is YouTube.
- 1:55So it's um I don't know why that happens, but so now I'm using a streaming software, and I hope that that's gonna make it better.
- 2:04I I'm curious, please do tell me in the chat if uh if
- 2:14But I also am gonna be doing some, I think I'll be doing some collaborative live streams in the future.
- 2:23On Friday, for example, I am hosting Robert Moss, who is an amazing dream shaman.
- 2:34He's really a wealth of knowledge, and I'm so excited to be joining his course on the shift note on the shift network, and we're gonna talk about his work on
- 2:44Friday, and we're gonna live stream it.
- 2:46So I'm hoping this is why I'm doing this now when I don't really know what I'm doing.
- 2:51Hopefully, by hopefully by Friday I'll have this all dialed in and I'll like really know what I'm doing.
- 2:57Um but anyway, so thank you so much for being here.
- 3:02Whether you're listening on the the audio podcast or you're watching the live stream, I'm really really grateful that you're here.
- 3:10today I want to talk about reincarnation and why we reincarnate.
- 3:14Incarnate.
- 3:15So
- 3:17A lot of times first of all, a lot of people don't believe in reincarnation because it's been taken out of a lot of mainstream religion, at least in terms of the the West.
- 3:27So the Judeo Christian traditions don't n no longer acknowledge reincarnation.
- 3:34That was something that was taken out over time.
- 3:37So but if you go obviously, you know, Eastern philosophies and religion, it's just a given.
- 3:44They understand that reincarnation is a thing.
- 3:47But it's
- 3:47There is this question of why.
- 3:50Why do we keep coming back?
- 3:52If we're having a hard time in our life and we're experiencing challenges, we're experiencing uh trauma, we're not feeling that we're making much traction, then it begs
- 4:06the question: why did we decide to do this if we've already done it before?
- 4:12And
- 4:14For the answer to this question, we need to look beyond this human life.
- 4:19There is, I've talked about before, the prison planet uh theory that is popular right now, that we're stuck in a reincarnation cycle, that we're stuck on this prison earth, and our
- 4:34souls can't escape, so we die and then we come back, and we don't want to, but we're just either tricked into it or we're just funneled right back in.
- 4:45And that doesn't resonate with me.
- 4:48I think that if we look uh higher, if we zoom out, we are souls having a human experience.
- 4:59And we benefit from the soul level in all of the experiences that we have.
- 5:07And when it comes to reincarnation, we have the opportunity to continuously be coming back into a body to have an earthly or a temporary experience.
- 5:22And I think depending on where we are, we have different levels of forgetfulness.
- 5:27When we are on earth, there's a for most people, there's a very huge forgetfulness of the eternal nature that we come from, of the spiritual truth that we are each.
- 5:37Souls.
- 5:38We come here and we forget that.
- 5:41And so it feels like at we're it feels like we're separated.
- 5:45It feels like our whole existence begins when we're born and finishes when we die, and we've got to get everything done in that amount of time, and there's no pre-birth or after
- 5:57death.
- 5:59And we
- 6:02you know we feel that everything that we're experiencing in that life is is all there is for us.
- 6:11But we as a soul desire having a vast amount of experience because we have different things that we learn from different experiences.
- 6:24So we have
- 6:28you know, we may have a life where we want to really be
- 6:34Challenged so that we can feel what it's like to overcome those challenges.
- 6:40We may have a life where we feel oppressed so that we can understand what it feels like to feel suppressed and oppressed and not to feel free.
- 6:52We may have a life where we're a ruler, we're a we're royalty, and we can feel what it is like to not only feel that freedom, but to have control.
- 7:04Over people, the pluses and minuses that happen from that level of power and responsibility.
- 7:14What does that do to our hearts?
- 7:16What does that do to our souls?
- 7:18Do we fall into greed?
- 7:21Do we fall into ruthlessness?
- 7:24Do we fall into a really overactive ego where we forget even more that we're part of something bigger?
- 7:34And we suppress others, and we use others, and we sacrifice others.
- 7:42So we have the opportunity through our different or through our different incarnations, which we need to reincarnate to experience, we have opportunity to try different things.
- 7:57And different lives give us different opportunities to experience and to learn.
- 8:04And at different times, and I say times, I know that from a soul level, time really isn't a thing.
- 8:10Time doesn't exist at the
- 8:18Every time that we incarnate at the soul level, we may have different things that we want to experience, different things we want to practice, different things we want to learn.
- 8:29And it is through our challenges that we have the opportunity to do that.
- 8:35And it would be really difficult, may impossible for us to be able to try everything that our soul may want to experience in one lifetime.
- 8:48we we have
- 8:51all the time in the world as a soul.
- 8:53And we have that through lives.
- 8:56Again, some of those lives might be on earth.
- 8:58Some of those lives might be in other places.
- 9:01Sometimes we may incarnate with the same people, with you know, that the same people come in and out of our lives and we trade, we trade roles.
- 9:11We may be a friend to somebody in this life who then becomes our mother in the next life.
- 9:17And in the time after that they're a lover and the time after that
- 9:21They're a teacher, time after that, they're our child, and it's the same soul performing these different parts.
- 9:27And so what you are learning, and then there's this karma piece to it.
- 9:33There, karma is a part of reincarnation, but I also don't see karma in the traditional way that we talk about karma and that we learn about karma because that's it's very punitive
- 9:45based in that usually when we think about karma, we might say somebody we see something bad to happen, we see
- 9:51Something bad happen to somebody who's done bad things, and we might say, Oh, that's karma.
- 9:57There's karma.
- 9:58You know, kind of we give that that uh negativity that, somebody's getting what they deserve.
- 10:06And I think karma is bigger than that.
- 10:08Karma really is cause and effect.
- 10:11And so it is the universe balancing itself.
- 10:17And you are that center point of the universe in that case.
- 10:21So you have done things, you have
- 10:26You have had an output in a certain way that caused a certain ripple, and that ripple will come back to you, and then you will feel that effect.
- 10:36It will seem as though something outside of you comes to give you what that ripple is.
- 10:43That ripple of so you do something, it ripples out, it affects other people, and they adjust for better or worse, and then you get that balance.
- 10:54What you have rippled out.
- 10:57Then ripples back in, and seemingly from outside of yourself, you will have circumstances that will ripple in through you, and you will feel those effects of things that other
- 11:12people felt coming from you in previous times.
- 11:15Now, this can work across lifetimes.
- 11:18So you might be again, you might be in a lifetime where you're experiencing a lot of challenges and you feel that there
- 11:26Unwarranted.
- 11:28And you're like, well, I never evicted somebody, and so why am I being evicted?
- 11:33You know, I never made somebody feel that way.
- 11:35Why am I feeling that way?
- 11:37Um, why am I up against these odds?
- 11:39I never put somebody else in that situation.
- 11:43And it may be that your version of something that you put out in this life.
- 11:50The way that you're feeling and the challenges that you have are similar to something that you have done in this lifetime, the way you've made somebody else feel.
- 12:01But it could also be in another life that you have you know, you've been on the other side of that.
- 12:09And if what if you're being treated unfairly in a way that you see as unfair, that you may have been the one who has put that out in another life.
- 12:19It can work the other way as well.
- 12:22That you are putting beautiful things out, and you are filling your life with love and with compassion.
- 12:29And those ripples also, you will feel those ripples coming back.
- 12:35And it is not time-based, so it might not be something that happens immediately, but it is something that happens.
- 12:43And again, it may be something that happens across lifetimes.
- 12:47So reincarnation is a way for us also to experience.
- 12:49Experience the balance of karma where our souls get to feel again, get to feel that outward flow and those ripples that are created, and then the same ripples come back and
- 13:04we receive them.
- 13:06So just different ways that reincarnation plays a role for us, and again, it happens across lifetimes, across places, it can happen in different
- 13:19Different, and it doesn't even have have to be Earth.
- 13:23You know, we're ex we're very multidimensional beings, and this is a very big, vast universe.
- 13:31So that was what I wanted to share.
- 13:33I wanted to try to keep this one shorter.
- 13:35They I feel like these lives have been getting lengthier and lengthier, and I wanted to pull it back in today.
- 13:40But I really appreciate you being with me.
