Rebirths- Dr Brian Weiss: Many Lives, Many Masters
First posted on September 2019
I just finished reading a book that I purchased at 50% discount at Times bookshop, Many Lives, Many Masters by Dr Brian Weiss. Dr. Brian L. Weiss is an American Jewish psychiatrist, hypnotherapist, and best selling author that focus on past life regression. This book is about how Dr Brian Weiss discovered past lives and the Masters Spirits through the process of treating his young patient, Catherine with hypnosis. Catherine recalled her many past lives from Egyptian slave to a German pilot in world war 2. She was born of different genders, races and religion in her different rebirths. Catherine was told that she had lived eighty-six times in the physical state. She was also told that no matter what the circumstances, people are not to kill.
In this book, the Master Spirit told Dr Weiss that debt in previous lives must be repaid. That's why some souls will be reborn together so that the other can pay back the debt.
Through hypnosis Catherine discovered that Stuart whom she was having an affair with was someone who killed her in her previous life.
This book affirmed Buddha's teaching. More than 2500 years ago, Buddha already taught us about rebirths and karma. What you do in this life will affect the next rebirth.
I will share some of the quotes in this book that I find meaningful and remind me of Buddha's teaching.
" But if people knew that life is endless; so we never die; we were never really born" then this fear of death would dissolve. This quote reminds me of the Heart Sutra.
"We have debts that must be paid. If we have not paid out these debts, then we must take them into another life... in order that they may be worked through.
One of the most important of life´s lessons is to learn independance, to understand freedom. This means independence from attachments, from results, from opinions, and from expectations. Breaking attachments leads to freedom, but breaking attachments does not mean abandoning a loving and meaningful relationship, a relationship that nourishes your soul. It means ending dependency on any person or thing. Love is never a dependency.
Happiness comes from within. It is not dependent on external things or on other people. You become vulnerable and can be easily hurt when your feelings of security and happiness depend on the behavior and actions of other people. Never give your power to anyone else.
"Every individual soul chooses the significant people in that life. Destiny will place you in the particular circumstance; it will dictate that you will encounter a particular person, at a certain time, place." ~ Brian Weiss
