Hi Adrian. I have some rather pointed questions concerning the implications of some of the things your book affirms that any person is able to attain. I do not mean to come across as accusational, so in advance, I apologise if I do. I only intend to probe your beliefs (put them to the test, so to speak) in the hope of gaining answers to some curious questions, which as so far, I haven't had the opportunity to ask. I've put the questions in bold so you can identify them more easily.

I understand from this URL;
http://www.ourultimatereality.com/book1.html
that you have set up a successful internet business. One of the reasons you have given for this being possible, is because of the universal fact that human beings are able to achieve anything that they desire.
Furthermore, you have strongly asserted that you wish to share this "secret" with as many people as possible. I quote one of your opening paragraphs;

Are you one of the countless millions of people still having to merely exist from day to day without enjoying the true fulfilment, happiness, health, wealth and abundance that you truly deserve?

My first pointed question is this; are you being fair to the people who work in your successful internet business? You have said that you wish to share the "secret" of allowing any person to attain their heart's desire.
But have you shared this secret with all of your employees in your business? Because it seems to me, if each one of your employees knew the secret of attaining whatever their heart desired, they would have little reason to work for you. If all of your employees knew this secret, you might even go out of business, because they would all leave their job, and separately attain whatever they wish, without having to work under you.

To state my first question as clearly as possible...; doesn't your desire to have a successful internet business sacrifice people to a mundane existence of work in internet business management? Doesn't the successful longevity of your business depend on your employees never knowing this "secret" of attaining whatever their heart desires?

My second question I shall ask in a moment. Actually, the answer to my second question may already be covered in your book, which I haven't yet had the opportunity to read. If it is, you needn't bother to type out an answer, but instead simply provide a page reference and I'll get around to reading it.

I have read from Michael Newton's 'Journey of Souls' and your introduction URL
http://www.ourultimatereality.com/book1.html
about life planning. You have said that we plan our lives before we incarnate into a physical body. Now, here is a curious thought; if we plan our lives, then that must mean that before I incarnated into this physical world, that I planned to learn and gain knowledge of these "paranormal" (or "mystical") topics that people such as yourself have written about.

My second pointed question that follows from this curious thought is this; If the ultimate aim of human beings (as souls) is to learn, grow, become wiser, and discover who we really are, then why didn't we simply plan - before we incarnated into this life - to learn of these mystical topics? Take, for example, a bank robber. Such a person may be so obsessed in attaining wealth by robbing banks, that in his lifetime he never even considers mystical subjects. Why didn't that bank robber simply "plan", before he incarnated into this world, to get a copy of your book, or "plan" to meet mystical people like Mediums or Clairvoyants from a young age, so he could discover more about himself and become wiser straight away?

Perhaps to this, you may reply; "We choose an optimal life path. Perhaps the bank robber did plan to learn of such mystical things, but was led astray at some point". If that is the case, then a third question arises; How does one determine whether or not they are living an optimal life path? If they are happy?

Or, is someone living an optimal life path if they know about mystical topics? Because it is through knowing about and experiencing Mystical things, like traveling to the Astral Planes, that we best evolve spiritually, is it not? And if these things are best for an optimal life path, why didn't we all plan to have these experiences?

That would be odd indeed, because, there are many millions of people who know nothing about mystical topics, or that out of body experiences are even possible. That would mean that millions of people on Earth aren't on an optimal life path. And if that is true, a fourth question arises; if so many people aren't on an optimal life path, aren't the rules of our reality extremely haphazard and inefficient?

That's all I can think of asking at this time, thank you for taking the time to read my questions.

Hello Athelstone,

Hi Adrian. I have some rather pointed questions concerning the implications of some of the things your book affirms that any person is able to attain. I do not mean to come across as accusational, so in advance, I apologise if I do. I only intend to probe your beliefs (put them to the test, so to speak) in the hope of gaining answers to some curious questions, which as so far, I haven't had the opportunity to ask. I've put the questions in bold so you can identify them more easily.

I fully understand your position. I certainly would not write anything that I was not able to fully substantiate or in which I completely believe.

I understand from this URL;
http://www.ourultimatereality.com/book1.html
that you have set up a successful internet business. One of the reasons you have given for this being possible, is because of the universal fact that human beings are able to achieve anything that they desire.

Doesn't the successful longevity of your business depend on your employees never knowing this "secret" of attaining whatever their heart desires?

Thank you for your question which is a very relevant one.

First of all, those particular businesses were founded and being operated by myself some time ago now and my main focus as far as the business was concerned was managing the business successfully for all concerned whic of course is the primary responsibility of any business owner.

However, and most importantly, we have to recognise and accept the fact that all human beings are at different stages along the sacred path. Many are simply not ready to discover these truths, much less act upon them. We all have to evolve by experience, and that experience includes many lives on Earth under many different circumstances. For people who are relatively early in their evolution to attempt to teach them these things and expect them to embrace it would be like giving a kindergarten child SATS tests to do  

The fact is, and I am not avoiding the question in any way, when a person is ready to discover and apply these important Universal principles, the means by which to do so will appear. That is why you are here as well as everyone else. The Universe is immutable andperfect in its operation, and there is no way that I or anyone else can interfere in that perfection.

My second question I shall ask in a moment. Actually, the answer to my second question may already be covered in your book, which I haven't yet had the opportunity to read.

Yes, that is exactly right.

My second pointed question that follows from this curious thought is this; If the ultimate aim of human beings (as souls) is to learn, grow, become wiser, and discover who we really are, then why didn't we simply plan - before we incarnated into this life - to learn of these mystical topics? Take, for example, a bank robber. Such a person may be so obsessed in attaining wealth by robbing banks, that in his lifetime he never even considers mystical subjects. Why didn't that bank robber simply "plan", before he incarnated into this world, to get a copy of your book, or "plan" to meet mystical people like Mediums or Clairvoyants from a young age, so he could discover more about himself and become wiser straight away?

Quite simply because the required the experience of being a bank robber. He or she, with guidance, would have determined that being a bank robber would provide the relevant experiences required in order to evolve. If you look around there are millions of people doing things and being subjected to things that you would have thought they never would have chosen, but the fact is they did, and for a reason that is not readily apparent from a physical perspective.

This is one reason we should never judge people. Some of the most highly evolved people on the planet are those, who to others, seem the most deprived. People like beggars on street corners and others who seem to have a simple or reclusive existence are often the most advanced because they know the physical world for the illusion it really is, and want nothing more to do with it than to learn the lessons they are here to learn.

Perhaps to this, you may reply; "We choose an optimal life path. Perhaps the bank robber did plan to learn of such mystical things, but was led astray at some point". If that is the case, then a third question arises; How does one determine whether or not they are living an optimal life path? If they are happy?

They were not necessarily led astray. As I said before, they may well have planned that existence in order to learn certain lessons.

To learn whether one is living an optimal life can be done by meditation and other forms of guidance. The "Higher-Self" which is actually the "Inner-Self" "knows" everything. That is why it is so important to focus on listening to and acting on the guidance of the Inner-Self. It is also possible by Astral Projection to learn from that perspective more about ones true objectives.

Most people are still too focussed in the material world to recognise these thruths. I have a chapter in my book called "The Human Paradox" that deals with these matters.

Or, is someone living an optimal life path if they know about mystical topics?[/b] Because it is through knowing about and experiencing Mystical things, like traveling to the Astral Planes, that we best evolve spiritually, is it not? And if these things are best for an optimal life path, why didn't we all plan to have these experiences?

The fact is; many people do. But again, as I relate in the chapter "The Human Paradox", when people arrive on Earth they are immediately indoctrinated by parents and others into the physical world, and by the age of 7 years or so they have lost contact with their true purpose.

That would be odd indeed, because, there are many millions of people who know nothing about mystical topics, or that out of body experiences are even possible. That would mean that millions of people on Earth aren't on an optimal life path. And if that is true, a fourth question arises; if so many people aren't on an optimal life path, aren't the rules of our reality extremely haphazard and inefficient?

There are no "rules" as such, only Universal principles of which Cause and Effect is a very important one. Everyone has freewill to do as they please, but always subject to Cause and Effect.  It might well be true that people are not on an "optimal path", but nevertheless it is the path they have chosen of their own freewill on Earth, whether or not it is what was intended before arriving. This is one purpose of my book. The information is there for those who are led to find it, so it is not a case of there being no information available from this or other sources.

It is also very important to note that your observations are only beng made from a temporal perspective. In the grand scheme of things only perfection exists, and no one, except God, can understand the complete picture over all eternity.

That's all I can think of asking at this time, thank you for taking the time to read my questions.

It is my pleasure; I hope I have answered them

Hello Everybody
I am looking for other experiences with reincarnation. I had my first experience when I was 16 years old. Two people were assigned to do a group subject in sociology in high school. My friend and I were assigned the paranormal.
We had both had experiences but wanted to do something different. My friend found out about a couple who were testing people for Duke University. They were happy to see us.
I tested out as a highly functioning precognitive clairvoyant. They then asked if we would be willing to be hypnotized for research into reincarnation. I said OK and was amazed when I came too again. I went into a really deep state and actually spoke Mongolian. It was an ancient form of it and I had a lifetime as a mongol warrior. They used me in their book and I remembered the memories of that lifetime.
The last thing they said was for me to remember everything I did on the different planes and have my conscious and subconscious minds work together. It has been a blessing for the rest of my life.
I do remember things better and connect to other energies better ever since that time. I realized what I had been doing for most of my life with my mental self and astral self.

Since sept. 11 2001, I had an awakening, thanx to my neighbor and friend, after the World Trade Center disaster, I came home from work very angry and confused about why these things happen.
I told my friend, if it wasn't for me having to take care of my 13 yr. old son,that I would join the armed forces to fight against the so called war on terrorism. She cried and told me that things aren't what they seem, that the people behind this tragic event wasn't who most people think is behind it, that there was this elite group called the illuminati, that control the world through media and mind control.
I thought these things that she was telling me did'nt sound right, she had a book called Rule By Secercy, she told me to read it and then tell her what i thought. Well after readind that book, it led me to other books. I read other books on the same subject, books by David Icke, his were a little more special, he not only talked about world control, he talked in his books about the chakra system,this caught my attention.
So I did further research about the chakras, and found out about the benifits of chakra meditation,and reasearched further and found out about how chakras are linked to the obe, so finally after meditating on the chakras,and learning how to astral project(oobe)my whole outlook on life has changed.
I did'nt mean to make this so long,but my question is after reincarnation, since we forget after incarnating into the next physical body,will we forget to use these life changing tools,far as meditation and astral projection in the next life, I hope not, wish i would have known about these great gifts earlier in my life in this incarnation.
sorry so long
LOVING YOUR " OUR ULTIMATE REALITY " e-book, it's excellent!
THANX ADRIAN.

Hello Astral Walker,

Thank you very much indeed for your kind comments on my book  

And congratulations on your Astral projection successes! There is no doubt at all that Astral projection and OBE are extremely valuable abilities and life changing as you have discovered. I hope that millions of people will eventually learn these abilities, or more specifically re-learn, because they are natural abilities, and that will have a profound effect on the direction of mankind. And it will happen.

As for your question, I think it depends on many factors. We certainly "forget" that we used t project in a previous life just as we usually have no knowledge of anything else unless we retrieve it by directly accessing the information through the appropriate methods.

However, many people can AP and OBE naturally, almost at will, and that is almost certainly a "carry-over" from a previous life even though they do not remember it directly. This leads me to believe that once learned it becomes more likely to happen in the next life. These abilities are also about Energy equilibrium. Those who, through the process of perfection can bring their Energy Body into balance through the chakras can project much more easily than those who are Energetically unbalalanced.

Ultimately the "decision" might be that of the "Higher-Self" which is really the "Inner-Self". Our Higher-Self has a complete perspective of all lives and our entire existence; keeping in mind that "time" does not exist beyond the physical world. So if it is appropriate to learn Astral Projection and/or OBE then the Higher-Self will send those messages. It is for then for us to hear them at a physical level.

So in answer to your question; although there is no direct memory recollection of AP an OBE abilities from a previous life, the chances are there will be a tendency to pick up where you left off by "discovering" these abilities early, under the guidance of the Higher-Self.

Best regards,

Adrian.

I recently had a flashback to a previous life in which I was a concert violinist.  I also taught children how to play the violin.  I felt I should have the desire to play that instrument, but choose the electric organ.  I do love to listen to violin tapes however.  I was born into a musical family.  My father was a church organist and was a general musician.  My mother was a professional singer and whisler.  At age 15 she sang with the Handel and Hayden society in Boston.

I had a great grandfather that made violins.  We had one of them in our house.  I was kind of fascinated by it and often played with it, but other things caught my interest, sports, girls, etc.

I took voice lessons when I was in high school.  My teacher was a college professor.  He said that he thought he could get me a schlorship to a conservatory of music if I wanted it.  I didn't follow up on that.  I perhaps should have, because I believe that one is born through parents that will provide the appropriate environment for one's spiritual growth and development.  

It's strange, but when I performed musically in public I had no fear.  However, when it came to public speaking, I was terrified.  I had to take a public speaking course to get over it.

In respect to the past life of a concert violinist, I visualized a particular year, 1888, and projected myself back to that time with the intent of finding out who I was at that time.  It seemed to be quite easy to do.  I haven't done that again since then.  I will have to do some more exploring.  What one finds has to be looked at objectivly.  It could be very disturbing emotionally if one comes upon a character of disrepute.

I had a friend that told me that in a past life his mother was a prostitute, and she would send him into the street as a boy to bring men to her.  He didn't feel badly about that because the times were bad and many people were doing things like that to survive.

I have not done this yet, but I have thought of returning to that particular life and learning what wisdom I accumulated that I might apply in this life, that might be helpful in moving along the narrow path.

As Adrian mentioned in Our Ultimate Reality, we create it.  It takes a great effort to put the ego to one side to accept that idea.  "According to your belief, so be it unto you."

[Robroy]

My step daughter, Debbie, recently transitioned to a new realm of being.  She was 52 years old.  At least her body was that old.  In truth, she is deathless, timeless and changeless. She was medically diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and when she began to pass blood, she was transferred to a Hospice, where in about 10 days she made her transition.  The whole family was there and said their goodbyes and luv yu's.

I contacted Debbie after she passed and found her in a state of confusion and slightly disoriented.  I identified myself and said I was there to help her move on.  She left behind a physical body that was crippled with rheumatoid arthritis since she was 19 years old.  She had 22 joint replacement surgeries.  The last three years of her life she was unable to walk and feed herself.  The reason I mention this is that I found her with a much younger body and very beautiful.

 It was helpful for Adrian's book, "Your Ultimate Reality" to come to my hands at this particular time.  In many ways it served as a reminder for me of truths I have been aware of for some time, particularly the section about what happens to a person after they die.  I like to refer to it as life after life, because life is continuous.  There is no such thing as dead life.

I helped Debbie by guiding her into the tunnel of light where she would be greeted by loving friends.  She went immediately into the light without hesitation.  I was happy for her.

We don't make up experiences like that.  It was a part of my Ultimate Reality.

Hello Robroy
It is good to hear from you again. I admit that the mongol lifetime was a shocker to me. I wonder if that is where my love of riding motorcycles and horses comes from in this lifetime.
You are correct in that you get all of the reasons and things you learned along with the memories.

[Nita]

Hello Robroy
I am sorry to hear about Debbie leaving but what a beautiful experience. You know she is safe and well now.

Are you one of the countless millions of people still having to merely exist from day to day without enjoying the true fulfilment, happiness, health, wealth and abundance that you truly deserve?

A huge mistakes many people make is to relate to a ''successful lifestyle'' as being a wealthy one (success=wealth). Some might fall into the trap when thinking that, by reading some ''How to be successful'' books, they will get rich (but it does not work for them). They will immediately conclude and over-generalized everything that it was ''a scam''. Basically, they have learn nothing from it at all, and worst; this ''bad experience'' will block them to investigate other similar ressources that might really help them. The goal of many of these books is not to become only ''successfuly wealthy''! It is clear that this is mostly spiritual and it seems, sadly,  that some people can't understand this important notion....

Take care,

[Adrian]

Take care,

Yes indeed!

Most people equate "success" with "wealth" and other material things.

This is one reason people are still living between the physical and Astral worlds, both of which are materialistically based. It is not until a person eventually satiates all material desires and sees them for the illusions they really are can they progress to our true home in the Spirit worlds beyond form.

Best regards,

A very comprehensive and interesting website: @http://HealPastLives.com/

Ellen Mogensen has an excellent site with a ton of great info on Past Lives and Life Purpose.  She easily covers a book or two worth of content, all available free from her site.

She offers "past life readings" and healing services.  I have had a past life profile, and it was comprehensive so I can recommend her.  I haven't had a healing so I'm not sure what to expect but she seems to legitimately care.

I have read her $5 ebook on weight loss and it is pretty good as well.

[James S]

This is a particularly interesting topic for me to read since I've been studying Numerology. Many of the philosophies presented here were "mapped out" by Pythagoras when he developed the study of Numerology, i.e. what is the path in life our soul has sought, what are the conditions we've placed ourselves in to achieve this, what are the natural talents we've come into this existence with, and what challenges have we presented for ourselves to overcome and learn from?

If I look at the example of the bank robber, I would say that this was not a path that a soul would choose to take on purpose. Our souls are in essence beings of love, and seek only to add benefit to others, not take away from others, as to take from another is ultimately to take from one's self.

What can happen though, is that a soul may choose a particular lifes path that may require say, an understanding of humanitarianism. That soul may then choose a set of conditions and challenges to work through early in life to gain a better understanding of what it means to be a person that can give to others selflessly.

If their soul does not overcome these challanges, one of which may be an over-expressed sense of their personal freedom and a lack of understanding of boundaries, they might end up being caught up in a world of crime. If this becomes the case, when they return to the spirit world, they will review their life, look at what prevented them from achieving their goal, and set about rectifying those problems in the next life.

In Numerology this scenario will often relate to the term "karmic debt". This term is used to describe a condition whereby a soul has done something in a past life to cause harm to others or themselves in some way, and so that soul seeks to set in place the conditions necessary to work through that debt, and learn and grow in this life. The universe does not judge, it does not "place" karma on us. On a soul level, we are our own judges, and we set about to repay the debt ourselves.

Now, to get off this little digression and back to the main points of the topic....

What I believe supports Adrians views here, again looking at the topic with my knowledge of Numerology, is yes we are all able to achieve our soul's purpose in life, but consider that the purposes of our soul's may all be different. It is entirely possible that there is a soul among us who's ultimate goal in this life may be to help Adrian with this business, as that will bring about a completion in an attainment sought by that soul. Not only will that soul greatly assist Adrian in his endeavours, that soul will receive a great sense of satisfaction and be at peace with the knowledge that it is on its chosen path.

There are many different paths that our souls can take in their evolution, and each path adds unique knowledge and experience. A soul may choose the path of a leader or pioneer, it may chose the path of creativity, the path of knowledge and research and spiritual wisdom, the path of a teacher, the path of a humanitarian.

Also, to coincide with the last point that was made about wealth and materialism, a soul may choose the path of "manifestation" (the "8" life path in Numerology). A soul that has chosen this path is best suited to the business world, to achieving wealth, status and success. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this, providing it is done with spiritual intent. By this I mean that wealth and status is not achieved purely for the sake of  personal gain, but is achieved for the sake of not only personal gain (theres nothing wrong with being able to enjoy the benefits of wealth), but most importantly - for the betterment of all. A soul who is truly working in this energy will be able to accumulate great wealth, and will be able to use that wealth for the benefit of friends, family, the community, for charities, etc.

This is the essence of manifestation. Many spiritually minded people seem to struggle with the idea of material gain, thinking it is diametrically opposed to spiritual growth, but this simply is not true. We all have the potential to be masters of the material world, and manifestation is simply the act of putting the material world to work for us. The fine balance here is between being too materially minded and being too spiritually minded. If that balance is achieved, it can be a real blessing to us. Such a balance can come when we are no longer concerned with achieving wealth or material comfort, but achieve those things as a "side-effect" of living the life that our souls intended us to live.

Just a bit af a brain dump from me there. Hope it adds some value to the discussion.


James.

[Adrian]

Hello James;

Thank you very much indeed for your brain dump   I found what you say to be very interesting, relavant and above all accurate!

I can say without hesitation that my number one priority and mission in life as it were is to use my existing knowledge gained over the last 40 years together with my 25 years of computer experience, during most of which timeI have also enjoyed wrting, to bring these inner, Spiritual truths to as wide an audience as possibe, in recent years of course by means of the Internet. The timing is perfect and is no coincidence; I know that for a fact. I have no doubt that it is what I am here to do, and hence the experience and knowledge I have gained and the Internet by which to propagate it.

On the commercial perspective; I have never, ever previously charged for anything in these matters. The Astral Pulse for example has cost and continues to cost a great deal to maintain in time and money, and of course I am totally committed to ensuring that continues to be the case.

However, when I was inspired to write Our Ultimate Reality, which I was, at the same time I was inspired to realise that ithad to have a reasonable cost associated with it because "free" is associated with "of no value" and nothing could be further from the truth in the case of the book. Also it attracts the genuine seekers who the Universe in its own perfect way brings to the site and who are prepared to make the committment as opposed to those people who will have almost anything just because it is free    I have of course added to the value by including the bonuses.

This is all happening in the grand scheme of things, and I am happy, grateful and honoured t be in this position.

Best regards,

Adrian.

[James S]

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for your comments.

There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that your intentions in developing these sites, and now your book, have been purely holistic. You are adding to people's lives and encouraging them to grow.

Also there is the proof of this is in the synchronicities you say you are experiencing - all those little (and some big) things that tell you you are in the right place at the right time doing the right thing.

I do very much hope that your book does provide for you that blessed side-effect of financial gain. Aside from my hopes, there is one of the universal laws at work here - exchange of energies. You are giving out in truth and love. The universe will always honor that by giving back. The universe also honors a person who has belief in self, and believes their skills and knowledge are of value.

Many blessings,
James.
