Whilst musing one day I came across a line of logic which appeared to prove the existence of past lives.
I goes like this -
There have been many reported incidences of past lives and
Near Death Experiences (NDE's). Millions, in fact, throughout history. This in itself is not the proof I found. However, it does draw ones attention to the fact that the human mind has had and does have these thoughts/visions/NDE's! This is not disputed and, of course, does not constitute a proof of anything just yet.
But one must ask, however, - where do these thoughts/visions/NDE's come from? (e.g. one event/experience within the Near Death Experience is the viewing of past lives. This takes the form of reviewing one's life by looking into a polished shield, water surface, film screen, television screen etc...) They are in the mind and they manifest themselves when close to death. It is accompanied by a highly organised multiple serious of steps and procedures within the Near Death Experience. The precise sequences are not the random flashing lights of a disintegrating dying brain. No way!
The experience is reported to be a crystal clear experience and apparently very real. But again this is not the proof which satisfied me.
There should be an evolutionary process which causes this trait to evolve and happen throughout the whole of humanity! Please note - the following is actually the core of my argument! Just before any mortal dies he experiences a Near Death Experience. So generally no significant physical breeding can take place after the onset of a Near Death Experience. Any possible evolutionary chain is totally broken on the physical death of the being. So spiritual matters like reincarnation and NDE's can never be transfered/evolved in this way!
But the only way that spiritual matters and the NDE's can be evolved is by some evolutionary system. And - this means that there must be spiritual evolution.
As there is spiritual evolutionthen there is definitely reincarnation/past lives etc. QED
