Years ago, I learned the process of freewriting from Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way. At the time (late 1990s) I did the freewriting exercise daily for about nine months. Then I stopped. I just found it irritating, boring, and annoying. Over the years I made attempts to return to regular freewriting but never stuck with it.
Now, I’m playing with freewriting while listening to Abraham-Hick’s Law of Attraction Directly from Source. I pick up a phrase from the audio, write it down, and see where it takes me. My first interesting musing to come out of the process was about reincarnation and how I feel that word doesn’t accurately capture the process of a spirit having multiple physical lives. Here’s what I wrote:
To reincarnate implies to make over or make again. But we are not being made over – it’s one continuous experience – kind of like moving through the current physical life is a process, moving though all the physical lives of the spirit is a process – not a being made again or made over.
Now, I’m not a Buddhist and can’t tell you exactly how Buddhists view reincarnation. But I find thinking of my spirit as one continuous presence moving from body to body quite comforting.
