It can be very difficult to accept that you have lived past lives when you have no idea how reincarnation works and how memories are erased every time you reincarnate, especially because you do not understand the reason for this event. Therefore, today you recognize yourself only as a physical being, without giving the slightest thought to the possibility of having been someone else, even very different from who you are, in another era. Of course, if you don't remember, you can't have any idea what it means to be someone else who was you, but with a different head, but you are here precisely to learn methods for seeing your past lives without using your imagination, but with real abilities and memories. I am aware that you would like to know everything right away. Even though you have seen the thickness of this book, you would like me to explain everything there is to know in just a few lines, as if this were possible. But in order to understand the function of past lives and be able to see and remember them firsthand, you need to understand the principle of the Soul, from its birth to its growth. In fact, there is an important difference between Consciousness and Soul. Although I have used these two terms as synonyms so far, there is actually a difference that will allow you to understand what a young soul is, as opposed to a more mature one. I do not like to define a soul with the adjective 'ancient', as everyone in the world defines themselves as people with ancient souls, so this term is losing its value and seriousness. Instead, we will talk about a young soul and a more mature soul, i.e., one that is more capable of guiding its life in the right and most evolutionary direction, as opposed to a soul that is incapable of setting rules for its human ego. Everyone in the world possesses Consciousness, which is the upper part of the Mind, a sort of evolved guide that pushes you towards one choice rather than another, which always turns out to be the right one even when you would not have bet on it, because it is guided by a higher instinct, regardless of whether it is listened to or not. Consciousness is what you really are, it is your true self, it is what you are inside and not your outward appearance. You are the Consciousness that lives inside a human body and inside a human life, but Consciousness is something much greater and truer than everything around you, which we could define as a world made of illusions. Therefore, every human being and every animal has a Consciousness. In reality, even plants have it because, although it may seem insignificant to us, they are alive and feel pain or emotions, albeit very different and far removed from those we obviously feel; this does not mean that they are not alive. Of course, the life of a plant is very different from that of a human being, so we cannot compare them and consider the two experiences to be the same or equal in terms of spiritual evolution. We are talking about the fact that even a plant is alive, but this does not mean that its spiritual evolution is equal to that of an average human being capable of thinking, reflecting, acting, and creating something from nothing. So human consciousness is much more evolved than that of a plant, but also than that of animals. Although many people today believe that animals are far superior to humans, considering them to be kinder, more likeable, more intelligent, and more loving, because our love for animals makes us see this, we must not lose our objectivity and forget that human beings are the most evolved animals, because they are capable of reasoning and deciding after careful reflection, rather than letting themselves be carried away by their animal instincts. Even if many people love animals more than humans, we must be objective and realize that when you have a problem to solve, the one who can help you is another person, not an animal. When you need medical care for an illness or a serious virus, you go to a doctor, not a dog; when you need expert advice, you go to a lawyer, not a horse. Although we may love animals even more than humans, we must not lose our objectivity and believe that animals can be more mentally and spiritually evolved than humans, as this thought is becoming overly prevalent, leading many people to follow an exaggerated philosophy of life, in which animals in danger are saved while humans in danger are left to die. This concept is important for understanding that animals also have consciousness, because they are alive, feel emotions, and have memories, but despite the love we may feel for them, we must not cease to be objective and recognize that animal consciousness cannot be compared to human consciousness.

Clearly, there are always exceptions, but exceptions are not the rule. Human consciousness is much more evolved than that of the rest of the animal kingdom. Regardless of the choices we make, which may be good or bad for other people, this does not detract from the fact that human beings possess a more evolved consciousness than all other living beings on this planet. In fact, human beings are the species most prone to reincarnation, while it is much rarer for an animal or a tree to be reincarnated. When we talk about reincarnation, we immediately think that we can transfer from a tree to a human body, but reincarnation is not that chaotic, as it is a transfer of energy from one ideal body to another equally suitable body; it does not pass from being an oak tree to being a human being with absolute simplicity, that would be unthinkable. The reincarnation of a plant refers to the transfer of energy and memories from a dying plant to another that is being born or has already grown nearby, allowing that plant to live its existence in its new form, with a package of memories from a previous life. Although we have been taught a completely wrong theory about reincarnation, which sees a tree reincarnating as a human being as if nothing had happened, the truth is that reincarnation is a transfer of data. Reincarnation does not mean that one body is transformed into another body, as if by magic, but that there is a transfer of data from one body to another, so that the memories and recollections of the dying body are passed on to the new body full of life, in order to continue evolution. Only in this way can we continue to evolve instead of remaining at the same level for millennia: because reincarnation exists, allowing us to move forward with our minds, simply changing bodies but continuing with our evolution. It would be very different if every time a person died, all their memories, ideas, and creations died with them. Even if we don't see it, understand it, or believe it, at some point in our lives we will try to move on, that is, to carry on our memories and knowledge by transferring them to a new body, rather than dying forever. Death frightens us because we do not fully understand what reincarnation is, but once we understand it, death will no longer frighten us because we will realize that only the physical body dies, while Consciousness goes on and continues its process, simply moving into a new body. Therefore, there is a transfer of data, memories, and recollections from one body to another in both the plant and animal kingdoms, although it is much more synthesized than what happens in the human kingdom. We can therefore understand how the small Consciousness of a plant can transfer, in its own time, from the body of a sick or dying plant to the body of another nearby plant that is just beginning its life and has the opportunity to continue its personal evolution. We can find the same situation in an animal that, when dying, could transfer its memories to another animal that is being born, and we call this transfer of data reincarnation. Although it is rare for this to happen in the plant and animal kingdoms, similar cases can occur. It is quite different for humans, who are far more inclined and suited to reincarnation. Even in this case, however, reincarnation is not a rule that all people are able to follow, as there are those who do not achieve the detachment or awareness necessary to enter a new body, and therefore their life ends there, as their consciousness gradually wears away until it crumbles completely. There are people who manage to reincarnate and others for whom this life is to be considered their last. Reincarnation is an act that is performed time after time, which means that having managed to reincarnate once does not mean that one will always succeed. In fact, in this life, we may meet several people who have past lives, which means that they have managed to reincarnate from previous lives to arrive at this one; however, this does not imply that they will also manage to reincarnate in this life and that, as a matter of fact, we will meet them again in the next life. For some of them, in fact, this could be their last life, even if they have had past ones. All of this also applies to us, as reincarnation is not mandatory and, for some of us, this could be our last life.

However, reincarnation is not a gamble and it is not a surprise, where you never know whether you will be reincarnated today or not. It is a consequence of our evolutionary growth, so if we understand how it works and what is really necessary to continue our existence, we can continue with the succession of future lives. So there is nothing to bet on or hope for, as there are actions we can take to continue our lives. All this may be a little frightening, but there is nothing to worry about, because regardless of whether you know it or not, or whether you accept it or not, reincarnation is what we will all try to achieve at the end of our lives, even those who have spent their entire lives denying its existence. The important thing is to get there aware of how it works to prevent harm from happening. So we can think of life as a choice, because you can choose whether to continue and increase your evolution, or regress. Reincarnation is a completely natural fact, which all humans who possess a Consciousness could achieve, although it would be better to say that it is a transfer of data from one body to another. All humans could achieve reincarnation, but unfortunately many do not. This is because achieving it once can be aided by the fact that at that moment you are able to detach yourself so well from your now ended life that everything aligns so that you are able to enter a new body. However, succeeding once in reincarnation is not enough to succeed every time. You might even succeed two or three times in a row, but having two or three past lives is nothing compared to having lived hundreds or thousands of past lives. This is the main difference between Consciousness and Soul. Everyone has Consciousness and everyone could transfer to a new body after the death of the first, but the Soul is something that goes far beyond a simple data transfer: the Soul has undergone hundreds, if not thousands, of reincarnations. Everyone in the world has a Consciousness and therefore everyone could be suitable for reincarnation, but few are able to continue and replicate reincarnation life after life, as most people wear themselves out more and more instead of using reincarnation to evolve. As a result, few people in the world have a Consciousness so evolved that it can be defined as a Soul.
