Child Birth and Death

Post Reply New Topic

I suspect in one of my past lives I may have been a woman. I've always related to women more than I do men.

My psychic said to trust my own instinct, so if I was a woman in a past life I imagine I was most likely the daughter of a rich family who was spoiled to the core and used to getting everything her way. Very much a demanding "girl girl".

Very interesting.

Hello dear Reptiless! Good to see you around here. Great topic.

Nice to see you also,hope you are feeling better.

Yes thank you. I haven't been ill though - just a bit scarce on WP.

Midwinter here but we have very mild daytime temperatures (usually) unless a cold front is passing.

Sorry, don't mean to derail the topic... I'm pretty open to the reincarnation possibilities, and feel there may be a place somewhere like a sort of cosmic railway station where souls "recharge their batteries" outside of time before the next scheduled stop...

But I have to wonder... where will all the reincarnated souls go when the world eventually ends?

I'm not sure why we are limiting pain to birth and death. The in between times are also full of pain.

....and no woman I know was full of radiance during labor. maybe afterwards. Not during.

I never said during.

Not you, Twisty. It was in the movie clip.

Oh, yeah.


And lets be honest, not all women have a built-in maternal instinct that makes them love their baby the moment it comes out. For some women after they give birth it's more like a "Finally it's over! What am I going to do with this baby?"

Maybe dying can be kind of the same way? For example lets assume if one becomes a ghost stuck in the physical world, a spirit that relives their pain and unhappiness over and over again, that can be kind of similar to a woman who gives birth to a baby she never actually wanted?

If "hell" is actually real, that could even be similar too. Those souls who are disgarded because they become unwanted by their creator.

But I personally don't want to see it like that. It's a thought that popped into my head and I can't think of any other way of comparing it...

I had two c-sections,I didn’t glow after childbirth.Maybe a week later after recovering.

I guess what I meant to say is not all mothers are happy to have children, so maybe not all afterlifes are happy either?

Bad karma results in bad afterlife.

That makes sense.

It could also maybe mean Hell if you're really bad.

I think the usual interpretation is that it leads to a bad reincarnation. Which is why poor and sick people deserve it, because they were clearly bad people in previous lives.
