You can use the techniques taught by Linda and Mary or the ones previously mentioned to access a past life of your own or someone else’s. Past-life recall reveals patterns of consciousness that extend into our present life. We can change, or reframe, past lives so that no part of us remains “stuck” in the past. Remaining stuck causes a pattern to continually manifest in the present.

Understanding the idea of the Akashic Records as a kind of interactive database reveals the importance of reframing past lives and transforming troublesome patterns of consciousness in the present life. From the Akashic Records, we continually “download” our previous patterns of consciousness and repeat them until we change them and “rewrite” new patterns into boundless space. Looking into past lives often reveals why certain people and situations crop up again and again to teach us the same lessons. People and situations are patterns in consciousness, and all of these reappear until we address and transform them.

How can you tell if a past-life memory is true? Your clairsentience will tell you. Deep inside, you will feel whether it is true or not. But in the end, it doesn’t really matter. What is real in the mind is what is real in your present life.

In the chapter on inspired writing, I sketch the stories of three past lives that surfaced in my mind during meditation. Once I recognized their commonality of stubborn willfulness, I did not know what to do next. Inner guidance directed me to transform these lives. I did so by injecting the thought of love into each life, whereupon that past life changed itself—and so did my present life.

Shakespeare wrote in his play, As You Like It, that, “All the world’s a stage/And all the men and women merely players/They have their exits and their entrances/And one man in his time plays many parts . . . ” From my experience of meditative reframing, I learned that we do indeed play many parts on the stage of the mind, and whether those stories from the past are real or imagined, rewriting them changes our character in the present and in the Akasha.

And why shouldn’t you change the past if it improves the present and future? It’s your mind and your life! Just be sure to realize that it is not a game. It is real. Remote viewing research has proved that anomalous perturbation—that is, influencing reality with the power of the mind—can physically change the past, as long as no one else witnesses what is being done. Rippling into the present, the change that was made in the past changes the future, too.

If an unpleasant past life comes up in a reading, and you or the listener wish to change it, simply hold that past-life story in mind during meditation (the subject of the next chapters) and bring to it the thought of love. The presence of love will unfold a new story with a happy ending. You don’t have to imagine the new story; it unfolds on its own. All you need to do is watch what happens, and jot down a few notes to firmly plant the change in your consciousness.

People go to psychics to learn about their past lives, but as Mary Roach points out, you can have this experience for yourself in the privacy of your own home. If you do so, be sure to use Linda’s seven steps to prepare, and if you have climbed up the stairway to heaven, close the door to the past, as Mary advises, when you are finished with it.

If someone gives you a past-life reading and it does not resonate with you, toss it out of your mind. Stake nothing on what you hear from someone else. What’s important is for you to become more psychic. That is the soul’s highest purpose. On this idea, you can depend.
