Past lives don’t tell the whole story

I am currently working on my second Akashic class for DailyOm.  It takes a much more in-depth look at soul books section by section and allows students to explore them.  At the moment I’m writing about the second section which I call “Re-integration”.  This is the record of what happens to a soul from the time of death to the time that it is fully reincorporated into the Akashics and into its totality.

Souls are too large to fit into a human body fully and there is no need for quite a bit of who we are to be here. In fact, having all of us in a body would prevent us from having the experiences we want so we choose what aspects of ourselves are coming here when we incarnate.  Past life records give us the information about the life we are reviewing up to the time of death, but no summary of why things happened, lessons learned, or how we integrated that information into ourselves.  The re-integration records do.

Each time we complete a life we go through a life review process.  Our teacher, our peers, and sometimes a council of elders help us figure out what happened, what it means, what we did great, what we could do better, and help us put it into context within ourselves and within the integrated oneness that is the Universe and the Akashics.  And then we go on with our lives because being in a body is just one step in a much larger process of learning and becoming.

I know that past life investigation is fascinating and it does truly give us insights into who we have been and therefore who we are.  But it can also leave us hanging or feeling incomplete.  Looking further into what we got out of that life can give us so much more.  Because our past lives don’t tell the whole story of who we are.
