H.G. Wells:
"Imagine, if you will, a cosmic stage where souls, luminous and infinite, gather before the grand theater of time. Here, choices are not made by chance, but by design. Some select lives of wealth and power, others of hardship and obscurity. Some step into the fires of revolution, while others seek the quiet lessons of solitude. But all—without exception—choose their place in the unfolding drama of existence."
"We like to believe that history is a sequence of random events, a river without a source. But what if I told you that history itself is guided by returning minds, by souls who, across centuries, whisper ideas into the ears of inventors, poets, and revolutionaries? That every great turning point—the birth of civilizations, the fall of empires, the rise of knowledge—was shaped not by accident, but by intention?"
"If reincarnation is real, then we must ask ourselves: Do we remember the echoes of past choices? Do we walk today in the footsteps of our own past decisions? And more importantly—what will we choose next?"
"Today, we step beyond mere speculation. We unravel the very essence of pre-birth planning—the celestial architecture that determines who we are, why we are here, and how history itself may be shaped by the invisible hands of returning souls."


Choosing Between a Life of Privilege or Hardship – Which Fosters Greater Growth?

Moderator: Wayne Dyer
Panelists:
- Dr. Michael Newton – Life Between Lives regression expert.
- Dolores Cannon – Past-life regressionist who explored soul choices.
- Edgar Cayce – Provided readings on karma and reincarnation planning.
- Dr. Brian Weiss – Past-life therapist who studied the impact of pre-birth choices.
- Robert Schwartz – Author on soul planning and overcoming challenges.
Wayne Dyer:
Welcome, everyone. Today, we’re tackling a profound question: Do souls grow more through privilege or hardship? Some believe that a life of comfort and influence allows a person to help more people, while others argue that struggle and adversity create deeper wisdom and resilience.
Let’s start with Dr. Michael Newton. Based on your work with Life Between Lives regression, how do souls actually choose their future circumstances?
Dr. Michael Newton:
Thanks, Wayne. In my research, clients under deep hypnosis described a soul-planning phase before birth. Here, they review past lessons and decide what’s next. What I found fascinating is that souls don’t just randomly select lives—they are guided by elders or advanced beings who help them evaluate what they still need to learn.
Some souls voluntarily choose hard lives—poverty, disability, or loss—because they want to master patience, compassion, or perseverance. Others pick influential lives to lead and inspire but still face hidden struggles, like moral dilemmas or loneliness.
No choice is superior—it depends on what the soul needs at that moment in its evolution.
Wayne Dyer:
That’s a fascinating perspective. Dolores, in your past-life regression work, you also explored pre-birth choices. Did you find that souls deliberately pick hardships?
Dolores Cannon:
Absolutely, Wayne. Many souls described choosing hard lives as an “accelerated path” to growth. Some volunteer to come back under extreme conditions because they want to purge karma quickly or elevate humanity.
I had one client recall being a wealthy ruler in a past life, but in their next incarnation, they chose to be a poor farmer who struggled to survive. When asked why, they said:
"I wanted to experience what it felt like to have nothing, to understand the people I once ruled over."
These choices aren’t about punishment—they’re about experiencing all aspects of life for soul growth.
Wayne Dyer:
That reminds me of a powerful lesson: “You cannot understand light without darkness.”
Edgar Cayce, you spoke about karma and reincarnation. Does karma dictate whether a person is born into privilege or suffering?
Edgar Cayce:
Yes, but karma isn’t punishment—it’s balance. Souls choose both privileged and difficult lives over many incarnations.
For example, a soul who misused wealth in one life might choose poverty in the next to learn humility. Conversely, a soul who suffered greatly may choose a life of ease to rest and contribute positively.
I gave readings to many people who were famous or successful, and some had lived multiple past lives in suffering. Their current success was their karmic “reward,” but how they used it determined whether they had truly evolved.
Wayne Dyer:
That’s an interesting point. Brian Weiss, from your regression work, do people tend to grow more from hardship or privilege?
Dr. Brian Weiss:
In my experience, hardship tends to accelerate soul growth, but privilege offers different lessons—such as responsibility, ethics, and influence.
I had a patient who, under hypnosis, recalled being a wealthy aristocrat in Europe. He realized that, despite his privilege, he was deeply unfulfilled because he never used his wealth to help others.
In his next incarnation, he chose a working-class life where he had to struggle but find fulfillment in community and love. He told me, “This time, I wanted to learn the value of people, not possessions.”
So the lesson isn’t rich vs. poor—it’s about how we handle our circumstances.
Wayne Dyer:
So it seems that both privilege and hardship can be powerful teachers. But let me ask Robert Schwartz—you specifically wrote about why souls plan difficult lives. Is suffering always necessary for growth?
Robert Schwartz:
No, but it’s often the fastest way to grow. Souls who want to develop resilience, strength, and compassion will often plan hardship.
However, privilege isn’t meaningless either. A soul born into wealth might have the challenge of avoiding corruption, staying humble, or using their influence for good.
One of the biggest surprises in my research was that some souls who had suffered deeply in past lives refused to experience it again. They said, “I don’t need that lesson anymore. Now, I want to focus on joy, creativity, or teaching others.”
The key is intention—not every hardship is “planned,” but every experience can be used for growth.
Wayne Dyer:
I love that. So, hardship can be a fast track, but privilege can be a test of character.
Final thoughts—if someone is going through a tough time, how can they view it from this higher perspective?
Dr. Michael Newton:
Remember that you likely chose this challenge for a reason. If you step back and ask, “What am I supposed to learn from this?” you can shift from victimhood to empowerment.
Dolores Cannon:
Nothing happens by accident. The soul is always growing. If life feels hard, you may have signed up for a masterclass in strength, resilience, and wisdom.
Edgar Cayce:
Your past lives shaped this moment, but your choices now shape your future. Make them wisely.
Dr. Brian Weiss:
Trust your inner knowing. Somewhere inside, you already understand why you’re here.
Robert Schwartz:
Instead of asking “Why is this happening to me?” ask, “What is this teaching me?” That shift changes everything.
Wayne Dyer:
Beautifully said. Whether your life is easy or difficult, growth is always possible. See every experience as part of your soul’s journey.
Thank you, everyone, for this enlightening conversation. Until next time, choose love, growth, and wisdom in every moment.
Designing a Life Without Past Advantages – A Test of True Ability

Moderator: Joseph Campbell
Panelists:
- Helen Wambach – Past-life regression researcher who studied large-scale reincarnation patterns.
- Dr. Jim B. Tucker – Expert on children's past-life memories and changes in life conditions.
- Dr. Linda Backman – Specialist in soul evolution and pre-birth planning.
- Swami Vivekananda – Spiritual leader who taught self-discovery beyond external attributes.
- Neville Goddard – Promoter of conscious reality creation and soul-driven experience.
Joseph Campbell:
Welcome, everyone. Today, we are discussing a bold question in pre-birth planning:
If a soul has been born into privilege, beauty, intelligence, or wealth in the past, should they remove these advantages in their next life to test their true abilities and character?
This aligns with the hero’s journey, where a person steps into the unknown to discover their true self.
Helen Wambach, your regression studies covered many people’s pre-birth planning sessions. Do souls actually choose to remove privileges in order to test themselves?
Helen Wambach:
Yes, Joseph. My research involved thousands of people under hypnosis who recalled their pre-birth choices. One of the most common themes was souls saying,
"I want to experience life without the gifts I once relied on."
For example, one woman remembered being a brilliant mathematician in a past life, but in this life, she was born dyslexic because she wanted to develop intuition and emotional intelligence instead.
Another soul who had been a celebrated warrior wanted to be born in a weaker, non-aggressive body to master patience and compassion.
It’s clear that souls don’t just seek comfort—they seek new challenges to develop different strengths.
Joseph Campbell:
That’s fascinating! So the hero’s journey of the soul might involve choosing a more difficult path rather than repeating past successes.
Dr. Jim B. Tucker, your research on past-life memories in children—do kids ever recall losing past advantages?
Dr. Jim B. Tucker:
Yes, many children have memories of past lives where they were wealthy, powerful, or talented, but in their current life, they lack those privileges.
A boy I studied remembered being a pilot in WWII, highly skilled and respected. In this life, he was born with a physical disability that made movement difficult. He told his parents, "This time, I wanted to learn what it’s like to depend on others."
Another child had vivid memories of being a famous actress, but in this life, she was an ordinary schoolgirl from a rural town. She felt she had chosen a life where she could experience being loved for who she was, not for her fame.
It suggests that souls don’t always seek power again—they seek new experiences that balance their growth.
Joseph Campbell:
So, it seems that life circumstances are like a script, and souls intentionally rewrite their roles.
Dr. Linda Backman, from your work in soul evolution, why do souls deliberately choose to give up past advantages?
Dr. Linda Backman:
It comes down to soul mastery. If a soul only incarnates in privileged, easy lives, it stagnates.
One of my clients had always been born into royalty or leadership roles across multiple lives. But in this life, he chose to be a humble farmer because he wanted to understand survival, patience, and simplicity.
Another client had been a powerful priestess in Atlantis, deeply intuitive. She chose to be born into a logical, scientific family in this life, where intuition was discouraged. Why? She wanted to learn how to bridge the gap between logic and spirituality.
This proves that growth comes from contrast.
Joseph Campbell:
That makes me think of mythology—many legendary heroes lose their power before their final transformation.
Swami Vivekananda, from a spiritual perspective, what happens when a soul intentionally gives up past advantages?
Swami Vivekananda:
The soul must discover that it is not the body, wealth, or intelligence—it is consciousness itself.
A person may be born without beauty to learn that their worth is not in appearance.
A person may be born without wealth to realize that happiness comes from within.
A person may be born without talent to awaken the inner power of perseverance.
This is the highest lesson: Who are you when everything external is stripped away?
The soul does not lose—it only remembers what is eternal.
Joseph Campbell:
Beautifully said! Now, I want to bring in Neville Goddard, because you taught that we create our own reality. If a soul chooses to remove past advantages, can they still shape their new destiny?
Neville Goddard:
Yes! Circumstances do not define a soul—perception does.
Even if a soul starts with nothing, if they believe in their inner power, they can rise to any challenge.
For example, I knew people who were born in poverty, but they visualized wealth and abundance and achieved it. Others who were born with physical limitations focused on strengthening their minds and spirits, becoming even more powerful than those with natural abilities.
Even if a soul chooses hardship, they can consciously shape their experience.
Joseph Campbell:
That reminds me of a classic myth: The hero loses everything, but through willpower and wisdom, they transform into something greater.
Final question for all of you—if someone in this life feels like they have "less" than others, how should they view their journey?
Helen Wambach:
Remember: Your soul chose this challenge for a reason. Look for the strength you are meant to develop.
Dr. Jim B. Tucker:
Your past-life advantages don’t define you—it’s how you grow in this life that matters.
Dr. Linda Backman:
Instead of asking "Why don’t I have what others do?" ask, "What can I discover about myself that I never would have otherwise?"
Swami Vivekananda:
You are not your possessions, your looks, or your status. You are the light within.
Neville Goddard:
No matter what life you start with, your beliefs shape your future.
Joseph Campbell:
I love that. Every hero faces trials, but the greatest adventure is self-discovery.
Thank you all for this enlightening discussion! Until next time, remember: The power is within you.
Soul Contracts and Pre-Planned Relationships – Do We Reunite with the Same People?

Moderator: Carl Jung
Panelists:
- Dolores Cannon – Past-life regressionist who explored soul contracts and reincarnation groups.
- Dr. Michael Newton – Life Between Lives regression expert who documented pre-birth planning.
- Dr. Brian Weiss – Psychiatrist and hypnotherapist specializing in past-life regression.
- Rev. Sun Myung Moon – Spiritual leader who spoke about destined relationships and spiritual marriage.
- Elizabeth Kübler-Ross – Pioneer in near-death experience (NDE) studies, examined post-death reunions with loved ones.
Carl Jung:
Today, we explore a fascinating mystery—do souls pre-plan their relationships? Do we reincarnate with the same people across multiple lifetimes? Are love, family, and even conflict predestined, or do we have free will in choosing our soul connections?
Dolores Cannon, your past-life regression work uncovered many cases of soul contracts. What did your clients reveal about meeting the same people in different lifetimes?
Dolores Cannon:
Through hypnosis, I found that souls don’t meet by accident. Many relationships—whether loving or difficult—are pre-arranged before birth.
A woman I regressed remembered having an unbreakable bond with a man in multiple lifetimes. They had been lovers, siblings, and even enemies, all to learn different aspects of love, forgiveness, and growth.
Another case involved a mother and daughter who had swapped roles in previous incarnations. In one life, the daughter had been the mother, caring for her child’s illness. In the next, the roles reversed, allowing them to experience both perspectives of unconditional love.
Relationships are not random—we meet certain people again and again to complete unfinished lessons.
Carl Jung:
That aligns with my theory of synchronicity—certain encounters feel predestined because they are part of our deeper unconscious plan.
Dr. Michael Newton, in your Life Between Lives research, did you find evidence of souls pre-selecting relationships?
Dr. Michael Newton:
Yes, in deep regression, many people described a council of wise beings guiding them through a pre-birth planning session. Here, they choose their parents, romantic partners, and even rivals—each serving a specific spiritual purpose.
One of my clients recalled being in this council before birth, selecting his future father, even though he knew the man would be emotionally distant. He chose this relationship to learn self-reliance and inner strength.
Another case involved a woman who repeatedly reincarnated with the same soulmate, but in different circumstances—one lifetime they were husband and wife, another they were best friends, and in another, they were teacher and student.
These choices help souls balance karma, deepen love, and expand wisdom.
Carl Jung:
Fascinating. It seems that souls consciously script their relationships, not just romantically, but even the difficult ones.
Dr. Brian Weiss, your work also confirms that people reunite across lifetimes. Have you seen evidence of pre-planned relationships?
Dr. Brian Weiss:
Absolutely. One of my most well-known cases involved a couple who instantly recognized each other the moment they met.
During regression, the woman recalled a past life where they had been together—but separated due to war. She died before they could reunite. In their current life, they had found each other again, this time with no external barriers.
Another case involved a woman whose abusive father in this life had been her son in a past life. She realized that their souls had switched roles for both to learn about power, compassion, and forgiveness.
The key takeaway is: We don’t just attract people randomly—our souls have long histories with them.
Carl Jung:
So, even painful relationships have a purpose.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon, you often spoke of spiritual marriage and predestined love. From your perspective, do people have “soulmates” they are meant to find?
Rev. Sun Myung Moon:
Yes, in my teachings, marriage is not just a physical or emotional bond—it is a spiritual contract. True love is eternal, meaning some couples are meant to be together across lifetimes.
However, not all romantic relationships are pre-destined—some are based on free will and learning. Some people meet their destined partner early in life, while others must first grow spiritually before finding them.
In Unification teachings, we believe that divine matches are arranged before birth and that each soul has a mission that aligns with their partner. True love is not about just one lifetime—it continues in the next world as well.
Carl Jung:
That adds a deeper spiritual dimension—relationships are not just for personal happiness but for fulfilling a divine purpose.
Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, you studied near-death experiences where people saw their deceased loved ones. Does this suggest that love and relationships continue beyond death?
Elizabeth Kübler-Ross:
Yes, many people in near-death experiences (NDEs) report meeting loved ones who had passed away.
One of the most touching stories I documented was a man who had a life review and saw every person he had ever loved. They were waiting for him with open arms, not judging him, but embracing him.
Another woman had a profound NDE where she met a child she had lost in miscarriage. The child reassured her, saying, "We will meet again in another life."
These experiences show that our connections do not end at death—they continue in the afterlife and into future incarnations.
Carl Jung:
That’s truly moving. It suggests that even if we lose someone in this life, the bond remains.
A final question for all of you—how can we recognize soul contracts in our current relationships?
Dolores Cannon:
Pay attention to instant connections or strong emotions, even if they are negative. A deep, immediate bond often signals a past-life connection.
Dr. Michael Newton:
Look at recurring patterns—if you face the same struggles in relationships, it may be a lesson your soul planned.
Dr. Brian Weiss:
Trust your intuition. If someone feels strangely familiar, it’s likely you’ve met before—just in another life.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon:
Seek relationships that uplift your spirit and help you grow, rather than ones based on superficial attraction.
Elizabeth Kübler-Ross:
Remember: Love never dies. The souls you are meant to be with will always find their way back to you.
Carl Jung:
This has been a fascinating discussion. If relationships are indeed pre-planned, then perhaps every encounter—whether joyful or difficult—is a piece of our soul’s great story.
Thank you all for your wisdom. Until next time, may we cherish the souls we meet, knowing that every connection is part of a greater plan.
Forgetting the Past – Would Reincarnation Be Meaningful If We Remembered Everything?

Moderator: Alan Watts
Panelists:
- Edgar Cayce – Mystic and "Sleeping Prophet" who spoke on reincarnation and karma.
- Dr. Jim B. Tucker – Researcher on children's past-life memories and why they fade.
- Thich Nhat Hanh – Buddhist master emphasizing mindfulness and living in the present.
- Paramahansa Yogananda – Spiritual teacher on karma and soul evolution.
- Seth (via Jane Roberts) – Entity who spoke about reincarnation and forgetting as a conscious choice.
Alan Watts:
Imagine if, the moment you were born, you remembered every past life you've ever had. Would that be liberating, or would it overwhelm you? Today, we’re discussing why souls forget their past lives and whether remembering everything would change the purpose of reincarnation.
Edgar Cayce, in your trance readings, you often said that forgetting past lives is necessary. Why is that?
Edgar Cayce:
Because without forgetting, there would be no free will.
In my readings, I found that souls carry memories of past lives deep in the subconscious, but they are hidden for a reason. If we knew exactly what we did before, we might feel trapped by our past mistakes instead of making new choices.
One of my clients had been a Roman general in a past life. If he had remembered this from birth, he would have acted as if he was still powerful, rather than learning humility in this life.
Forgetting allows us to truly live in the present and make fresh decisions.
Alan Watts:
That’s an interesting perspective—forgetting gives us a clean slate.
Dr. Jim Tucker, you’ve studied children who remember past lives. What happens as they grow older? Why do most forget?
Dr. Jim B. Tucker:
It seems that young children, especially between ages 2 to 6, can sometimes recall past lives vividly. But as they grow up, those memories fade—especially after they start school and integrate into their new life.
One theory is that this happens because the brain is still developing and needs to focus on adapting to the present environment. Holding on to past-life memories might interfere with forming a new identity.
For example, a boy I studied recalled being a pilot in World War II. By age 7, the memories faded, and he fully identified with his current life. It’s as if the soul gently transitions into the new body and lets go of the old story.
Alan Watts:
So, the mind is designed to focus on this life, rather than carry the weight of all previous ones.
Thich Nhat Hanh, Buddhism teaches about impermanence. How does forgetting past lives fit into that idea?
Thich Nhat Hanh:
Forgetting is not a loss—it is an opportunity to be fully present in the now.
Imagine carrying every sorrow, love, and regret from a thousand lifetimes. Would you ever be able to breathe fully in this moment?
The purpose of life is not to collect memories but to learn how to be free from attachment.
A flower does not remember last spring—it simply blooms. A river does not recall its past course—it flows. Likewise, when we forget, we are free to experience life with fresh eyes.
Alan Watts:
That’s beautiful—forgetting as a form of freedom.
Paramahansa Yogananda, in your teachings on reincarnation, you spoke about karma. If we forget past lives, how do we still carry our karma forward?
Paramahansa Yogananda:
Karma is not a memory—it is an energetic imprint that shapes our tendencies and desires.
A man may be born with a love for music but not remember being a composer in a past life. A woman may have a fear of drowning without remembering that she drowned before.
Forgetting does not erase karma—it simply allows the soul to experience it in a new way.
However, advanced souls can access past-life wisdom through deep meditation and spiritual awakening.
Alan Watts:
So, the lessons remain, even if the memories do not.
Seth, in the books channeled by Jane Roberts, you spoke about souls choosing to forget. Is forgetting always necessary?
Seth (via Jane Roberts):
No, but it is a choice.
Some souls remember fragments of past lives because they intended to do so—perhaps to complete unfinished business.
Others prefer to start fresh so they are not bound by past identities.
Imagine a great actor who has played many roles. Would they want to walk onto the next stage still thinking they are Hamlet? Or would they rather embrace the new role fully?
Reincarnation is a game of expansion—sometimes, you carry past knowledge, and other times, you dive into the unknown. Both are valuable experiences.
Alan Watts:
That’s a fascinating analogy!
Now, a big question—if we were able to remember all past lives, would that help or hurt our soul’s growth?
Edgar Cayce:
It would make life harder, because we might be too focused on correcting the past instead of living now.
Dr. Jim B. Tucker:
It could also cause confusion—imagine feeling like two people at once. It would be difficult to form a stable identity.
Thich Nhat Hanh:
True wisdom does not come from remembering the past—it comes from awakening in the present.
Paramahansa Yogananda:
However, if used wisely, past-life recall can help us make better choices and accelerate our spiritual growth.
Seth (via Jane Roberts):
The key is balance—remember just enough to guide you, but not so much that it overwhelms you.
Alan Watts:
I love that. So, forgetting is not a flaw—it is part of the design.
A final thought for our listeners: If you feel drawn to certain people, places, or experiences, perhaps they are hints from a past life. But instead of chasing the past, trust that your soul already knows what it needs to learn.
Thank you all for this enlightening conversation. Until next time, live fully in the now.
Pre-Birth Planning and Earth’s Evolution – Do Souls Choose to Be Born During Major Transformations?

Moderator: H.G. Wells
Panelists:
- Dr. Michael Newton – Expert on Life Between Lives regression and pre-birth planning.
- Dolores Cannon – Past-life regressionist who explored "volunteer souls" and Earth’s spiritual shifts.
- Rudolf Steiner – Philosopher and spiritual scientist who spoke about reincarnation and human evolution.
- G.I. Gurdjieff – Mystic and teacher on human consciousness and planetary transformation.
- Nikola Tesla – Visionary inventor, known for receiving ideas intuitively, possibly from past or future incarnations.
H.G. Wells:
Today, we explore whether souls choose to incarnate during times of great transformation—war, technological revolutions, spiritual shifts, or even planetary crises. Do we arrive at certain historical moments on purpose? Or is life just a random unfolding of events?
Dr. Michael Newton, in your Life Between Lives research, did your clients describe deliberately choosing to be born during major historical shifts?
Dr. Michael Newton:
Yes, absolutely. Many souls wait for specific eras to be born in because those moments offer the most opportunities for growth and contribution.
In deep hypnosis, clients recalled meeting with their soul councils before birth. Some chose to be born into times of war or revolution to develop courage. Others volunteered to enter a time of scientific progress to bring forward new ideas.
One of my clients described planning a lifetime during the Renaissance because they wanted to participate in the rebirth of art and knowledge. Another chose to be born during the Civil Rights movement to help bring about social change.
Historical periods are like spiritual classrooms—each offers unique lessons for the soul.
H.G. Wells:
That fits with my own view of history—some ages are tipping points, where individuals can make a greater impact.
Dolores Cannon, you spoke about "volunteer souls" who choose to be born during Earth’s critical transitions. Can you expand on that?
Dolores Cannon:
Yes, my hypnosis work revealed that some souls specifically incarnate during times of planetary change to assist with humanity’s evolution.
I called these "volunteer souls"—they come from higher realms or even from other planets, choosing to be born without heavy karma so they can focus entirely on their mission.
Many of these souls chose to incarnate now because Earth is going through a vibrational shift—a move toward a higher consciousness. Some work as scientists, spiritual teachers, healers, or artists, all playing a role in this transformation.
They don’t come to learn personal lessons—they come to help uplift the planet.
H.G. Wells:
That’s a fascinating idea—so some souls don’t just choose when to be born, but also why.
Rudolf Steiner, you spoke about the connection between reincarnation and human progress. Do certain souls reincarnate at key times to move civilization forward?
Rudolf Steiner:
Yes. Humanity evolves in cycles, and advanced souls return at the right moments to help shift consciousness.
In one cycle, we may focus on material progress, in another on spiritual awakening. Many great minds of the past—Plato, Leonardo da Vinci, even figures like Goethe—were likely returning souls who had prepared for those times in previous lifetimes.
Even today, souls are reincarnating with the knowledge they gained in previous epochs. Some of today’s greatest scientists, mystics, and innovators may be returning Atlantean souls, bringing forward lost wisdom.
The soul does not evolve alone—it evolves with humanity.
H.G. Wells:
That suggests a grand design—a hidden rhythm to history, guided by returning souls.
G.I. Gurdjieff, in your teachings, you spoke of waking up from mechanical existence. Do some souls choose turbulent times as a way to wake up spiritually?
G.I. Gurdjieff:
Yes, because comfort does not create transformation.
Most people live their lives in a dream state—reacting to life rather than shaping it. But when a person is born into a time of chaos, crisis, or upheaval, they are forced to awaken.
A soul who wants to accelerate their growth may choose to be born into a war zone, economic collapse, or period of great uncertainty.
These moments shake the soul awake and demand that it act with conscious intent rather than drift along passively.
H.G. Wells:
So, crisis isn’t just suffering—it’s an opportunity for deep soul evolution.
Nikola Tesla, you were known for receiving visions and intuitive knowledge beyond your time. Do you think you had chosen to be born at a moment when technological advancement was ready for your ideas?
Nikola Tesla:
I believe I came at the right time, but perhaps too soon.
Many of my ideas—wireless energy, free electricity—were not understood in my era. It is possible I had already worked on these ideas in a past life and simply retrieved them.
I also had visions of future technologies, things I believe humanity will achieve in later centuries. Perhaps I will return then, to continue my work.
The greatest inventors and thinkers are not discovering new things—they are remembering what their soul already knows.
H.G. Wells:
That’s a fascinating thought—that progress is not linear, but a returning cycle of knowledge.
A final question for all of you: If souls choose to be born in transformative times, does that mean everyone alive today has a special role in Earth’s evolution?
Dr. Michael Newton:
Yes. If you are here now, in this moment, your soul likely chose to be part of this era’s shift.
Dolores Cannon:
Many souls on Earth today are part of a global awakening—even if they don’t remember why they came.
Rudolf Steiner:
The challenges of today are initiations for the future—we are all preparing for the next great cycle.
G.I. Gurdjieff:
The question is not why you are here, but whether you will wake up to your purpose.
Nikola Tesla:
If you feel drawn to something bigger than yourself—science, spirituality, innovation—you are already fulfilling your mission.
H.G. Wells:
Then perhaps there are no accidental births. We are all players in a grand unfolding story.
Thank you all for this brilliant discussion. Until next time, may we embrace the roles we chose and step fully into our part in history.
