I rather think that we take with us, if you will, whatever we truly are, in our soul, at the moment we exit this physical existence. And where we land,so to speak, is determined by that condition eg., we make our own heaven or hell or in between- and come back here, to the learning place, to clean ourselves up- so as to hopefully land in a higher place next time.

Our faults don't leave us at the time of death. We carry the energy of every single action, word and thought of ours right through. There may be some who don't believe, experience is the greatest teacher which someday knocks you down and makes you face eye to eye. If you see the move "Eat, Pray, Love (very beautiful) speaks something similar. I had the toughest and most testing moments in my life and life made me suffer, humble my ego, and make me even affirm "I am nothing at all", "I am not even a speck of dust". But imagine, we do so many wrong and right things. Right things are forgotten easily, but the wrong words, revenge, hatred, snooting at someone - all these actions count and are not forgotten when you die. Certainly, a moment of pride may make you feel great about being a great writer, poet, actor, yogi etc. The moment you die, your ego, vanity and lust all comes to an end. But, you carry on the sub-conscious impressions with you to pay for all those wrong actions, and you become answerable to them.
Instead of thinking if our faults leave us, we must rather concentrate on how not to act wrong. Karma is nothing but a reaction of energy and energy is of different forms - Thought, deed and speech. Even if you think negative, that negative feeling in your heart has an energy and it is reaching someone and affecting them, which means you are indirectly committing violence. That will have a reaction on you. If you say a word to hurt, it is again karma, it will react on you again, if you do something to hurt somebody, again it is a karma, an energy which is working independent of what you have done but is associated with your name and you must own up to it. A simple e.g. is, when we comment on each other's articles, we receive different kinds of responses and that is nothing but law of karma. Our karma of words is inviting back a karma of different emotions.
Certainly, our faults don't leave us Ella. We carry them along and take birth again and show similar tendencies of characteristics in subsequent lives. If you would like, follow up a series of 8 videos which was an Australian series on past life regression. They are very interesting and intriguing as they prove it through hypnosis how every single woman recalled their past lives and also lead them through the directions of the exact place where they lived totally in a different lifetime. Among them was also a woman who remembered her life in the ghetto. They are on YouTube. Thank you.

Your conclusions mirror mine DM- just as we all do in everything- we think in different ways, and express in different words, but as I've metaphorically often said- All roads lead to Rome. I like metaphors because they are simple and easy demonstrations of more complex things in life- which have the same meaning in a different context. Thank you so much for your thoughts and opinions......I value them highly- Ella
You are very deep and soulful Ella. You seem to be right on track. Just focus on what Eckhart Tolle says - practice to be in the 'now' which is free from past, present and future.
Thank you DM- I shall practice that diligently! I do enjoy Eckhart Tolle- opened my eyes quite a bit......it's funny- instead of closing as I get older- they seem to be opening wider and wider......
Our spirit leaves. God is spirit, we as spirits are part of God. God is perfect
Yes I do. Death is the closing of one door and the opening of another. Our next life brings a new round of opportunities to progress to a higher realm. The faults we had in this life were really gifts which enabled us to learn more about ourselves and others.
The "faults" we have in our next life may or may not be the same, but their purpose will be to teach us something new about ourselves. Just as we have a new body, we have a cleansed spirit.
Indeed- but how do you think the soul becomes cleansed? I think it can only be cleansed in the washing machine of earth life...the same place it got dirty..so to speak...
Total Answers: 4, Total Page Views: 484.I don't think we have faults, just incomplete consciousness of what's good, that the judgment of ourselves (by ourselves or others) doesn't last beyond this physical plane, and that we pick up next life where we left off on this one. I doubt we get any free passes! I agree this is a learning place, but I think it's also a place we land in because we have a consciousness for suffering, so we kind of overvalue it. Is it possible that we move on at some point to a plane of existence where we can learn without having to suffer? I sure hope so!
Hi Jenn- Yes, I do think that there is such an existence somewhere in our distant future, but I think that we have to earn it- it's not just given to us no matter what kind of lives we've lived. As I said before- I compare it metaphorically to graduation- into a higher plane of existence- when we deserve to be there-
