The Reincarnation Myth and How To Avoid Coming Back by John Ruskan

The reincarnation question is an important one. As a serious spiritual seeker, I've bought into the idea of reincarnation for decades, but recently I've switched to another way of understanding how life works that makes more sense to me. This new paradigm has to do with the concept of the Oversoul and its Simultaneous Incarnations.

There is a place for multiple incarnations in the Earth experience, but not in the way that it has usually been presented. I was taught about reincarnation as I embraced New Age metaphysical beliefs, and it seemed so philosophically stunning: Reincarnation and Karma explained birth and character inequities; I learned about the Astral planes, and in non-religious, non-dogmatic terms where I will go when I die; and that the purpose of life is to evolve consciousness. But I took on a fear-based belief system that was an unconscious source of oppression for me.

I have been living all my adult life with the ominous, oppressive, fear-inducing belief that I must perfect myself and clear all Karma before I can get off the rebirth wheel, and that I have virtually endless lives ahead of me before I am liberated from this near-impossible task. Of course, the emphasis in spiritual practice is to strive to be in the moment, evolving yourself beyond ego-based perceptions and self-interest, transcending attachments, shifting from "lower" to "higher" consciousness, and so on. However, that said, the reincarnation doctrine has been central to how most New Age spiritual aspirants view the world, and it affects our experience of it and the intentions we consciously or unconsciously bring to our practice. Indeed, getting off the wheel of rebirth is openly declared to be a basic goal of Buddhism. It's hard to ignore this or be unaffected by it.

With this new paradigm that I will be explaining, it's been like a weight on my shoulders has been lifted. It's resulted in a deep relaxation and relief that has allowed me to continue inner work more effectively, which is still important. Shortly after this idea first struck me, I had an opening in which I believe I experienced something of my Oversoul. I actually felt larger, as if an invisible box around me had expanded. I realized how this invisible box normally limits my awareness and being. I experienced myself as a more mature, wiser, more expansive, more centered consciousness. This was definitely not a dream, wishful thinking, imagining, or substance-induced; it was a mini mystical experience. I took it as a verification and encouragement that I was on the right track.

Possibly the reincarnation doctrine was not maliciously originated and promoted. Maybe its advocates were acting out of best intentions. Very likely previous populations would not have been able to understand more complex concepts. But, if we were to perhaps get realistic and look at who controls what is broadcast to the world today and probably at all times, we detect the influence of the Dark Side. Where did the reincarnation concept come from? The Hindus. Who started the Hindu religion? The extra-terrestrial Dark Side. Why? As a control mechanism. Who started the New Age movement? Blavatsky and Theosophists. Are we to assume they were uninfluenced by the ET Dark? As I get more and more into investigating how the world operates, I distrust anything that has been allowed to find a wide audience on Earth. Blavatsky, early in her career, asserts in Isis Unveiled vol.1, pg. 351 that there is no reincarnation. Later she goes to India and is 'influenced' to change her mind. Blavatsky was a member of Russian aristocracy. The ruling class has always been composed of hybrid races whose purpose is to control mankind for their own ends. Seeing her in this perspective puts an entirely new slant on her work for me. It would appear that reincarnation has been promoted in order to keep souls trapped on Earth for purposes that benefit the Dark controllers behind the scenes.

Let's get to the Oversoul and Simultaneous Incarnation concept. In the "beginning," there is Infinite Source. It decides to split itself up so it presumably can have the adventure of creating the universe and rediscovering itself, we are told. However, it is not just a jump from the Infinite to the human being as it descends into physical matter, as is usually implied; there is a hierarchy of conscious individual entities created that pyramid down to the Earth plane, each creating a group of souls below it, eventually culminating in the humans on Earth. We here on 3 dimensional (3D) Earth have each been created and ensouled by our own personal Oversoul who is somewhere in the 5th or 6th dimension. This Oversoul in turn has its higher Oversoul on a yet higher dimensional level. This other Oversoul has many Oversouls below it, like ours, and in turn is one of the many that its higher Oversoul has created. Each of us alive today has a different Oversoul; there are many Oversouls putting down individual human consciousnesses onto the Earth.

The picture to get is your Oversoul, up there in 6D, with the many Earth incarnations below it that it has created, something like puppets on a string, including you. However, up there in 6D, time as we know it here on 3D Earth does not exist - everything there is happening in the NOW. Our Oversoul is then in the position, from its point of view, of having created a family of Earth beings simultaneously, all at the same "time" even though they are spread throughout historical linear 3D Earth time. In any Earth time period, there will usually be only one human created by any Oversoul. But throughout time, each Oversoul may reportedly have over 1000 humans existing "all at once," from its point of view. As each of these incarnations has experiences and thereby matures, wherever they are in Earth time, this growth is passed on to the Oversoul, who matures and grows as a result. That's the point of it all. It's the immediate purpose of life on Earth.

It appears to be true that numerous incarnations are desirable from a cosmic growth standpoint, and the basic fact that we have numerous incarnations is not false. But here's the critical point: These are not REincarnations; each one is a NEW incarnation, a freshly split-off part of the Oversoul, and that's one reason why we don't normally remember "past" incarnations. When you drop the body, the natural conclusion to your personal cycle is to return and permanently merge back with your Oversoul, not to REincarnate. When you merge, you don't lose your identity, you expand your identity and realize who you really are and always have been. You wake up, and become aware of your real self - the Oversoul. An important corollary of the Oversoul concept is that when you work on yourself now, you also affect those other parallel selves in other points of time, as well as your Oversoul. Your Oversoul is not a perfect, completed being. It is still evolving. Putting you down here in 3D and having you heal and evolve yourself is how it heals and evolves itself.

To sum it up, REincarnation is a myth. After we drop the body, we spend some time on the 4D Astral plane, and then on the 5D Mental plane, and then we are supposed to permanently rejoin our 6D Oversoul on the Causal plane. We do not REincarnate; that's not necessary - it's not necessary that any one incarnation return to Earth in order to attempt to balance Karma, evolve consciousness, or have new experiences - the other simultaneous incarnations are already doing that. Each of the simultaneous incarnations is already expressing a different aspect of its Oversoul in 3D, both in the qualities it manifests and the experiences it has determined it needs in order to evolve. At a certain point, the Oversoul has completed its work here and recalls all its embodied souls, and moves on to other forms of existence and experience. It will eventually merge with its Oversoul, and this is how the journey back to original Infinite Source proceeds.

Here's the important thing: After you kick the bucket, your final destination is your Oversoul. This is a tangible, living intelligence (you) who is close to you and who will cooperate with you (a smaller aspect of itself) in getting you back to itself if you make that intention / request. Since you have some sort of free will, it may be that you have to specifically ask your Oversoul for its assistance before it will intervene. And it doesn't mean you have to have "perfected" yourself or cleared all your Karma or purged yourself of all personal desire before you ask for assistance. That's the uninformed, manipulative distortion to which we have been subjected. Remember, you are your Oversoul; your Oversoul is you; it's only that your Earth 3D human consciousness has been shrunk down to a tiny part of that much greater Oversoul consciousness as part of the Game of Infinite Source hiding and rediscovering itself.

Now it may be that someone who is locked into linear 3D consciousness perceives it to be a REincarnation thing, and maybe sometimes we don't make it all the way back to the Oversoul for reasons not immediately apparent and we are recycled into another human body. Dark forces may very well be influencing souls to unnecessarily REincarnate, to keep us trapped in the Matrix in order to serve their interests. There is discussion on the internet that the light and tunnel that reportedly appear after death are likely to be a trap that shoots you back into a physical body. At first hearing, this idea sounded ludicrous to me, but now I'm thinking there may be something to it. If so, be extra cautious. Don’t rush in, don't be misled by the love vibes, don’t be taken in by false images of loved ones. And now, you know where to go. You will not be lost in space trying to figure out what to do next if you don't go to the light.

Your intention and purpose is to ultimately get back to your Oversoul. A very practical option is to call for guides to come forward from your Oversoul to escort you. Question them until you are certain they are from your Oversoul. Let them take you to wherever you are to go next, whether it's to some kind of afterlife introductory area, or to higher planes where you will be for a while in order to integrate the Earth experience and to continue to evolve, or actually back to the Oversoul. These guides will be other aspects of yourself. Probably they will be other parallel Oversoul incarnations now based on the post-Earth 4D or 5D planes, but they will be genuine and not out to deceive you - they want to help you because they are you! These same guides are likely to be those who contact you while here on Earth if you have a practice of communing with spirit guides.

It's not only the light and tunnel trap to be wary of, it's the whole Lords of Karma review session, which has also been reported by Near Death Experiencers and psychics. This is to be understood to be a set-up by the Dark Side. Your stance throughout this confrontation, if it happens, is that your mission is to only return to your Oversoul. You have no obligation due to guilt-trip Karma or to evolve yourself or for any other reason to REincarnate - THAT'S ALREADY BEING DONE BY YOUR PARALLEL SIMULTANEOUS INCARNATIONS. You have the wisdom (my mission is to return to my Oversoul and I will continue to evolve in the afterlife); the individuality (you talkin to me? You think you can trick or pressure me?); and the back-up (I call upon my Oversoul guides and even Archangel Michael to come forward and shield me from deceit and Dark energies).

The sequence of events immediately after death is not quite clear. Esoteric literature explains that many Earth years - as many as 5000 for advanced souls - may be spent in the afterlife on the higher planes before reincarnation. This is said to be necessary to assimilate the Earth experience. But now that we are discounting reincarnation, it seems that we would spend that time on the higher afterlife planes before finally merging with the Oversoul. From what I've gathered, apparently the light and tunnel / review session will come before this residency on the higher planes, right after dropping the body.

In the review session you are said to be counseled / pressured to choose your next reincarnation, but that doesn’t make sense; wouldn't you make those decisions shortly before returning - if that's what you foolishly decide to do - after the higher plane experience? Maybe it is possible if you are caught in the light and tunnel trap to be shot back to Earth immediately, but usually the return to Earth is said to happen after the afterlife higher plane experience. Just remember that you don't want to miss out on or minimize the afterlife higher plane experience, because that's where you continue your growth in preparation for the final merge with the Oversoul. And if you are able to avoid the alleged light and tunnel trap, you may also be able to avoid the review session, which is what you want. Nobody is to evaluate you but yourself, but then be careful of judging yourself so that you need another Earth life to get it right. It's the nature of the Earth experience to always include both light and dark, and the aim is to experience and transcend both these experiences, not to "get it right."

Theosophy says that after the long (or short) higher plane experience, the individual then reincarnates, and this is what I believed for a long time and what significantly contributed to shaping my spiritual aspirations but now, as I have been explaining, I believe this is misleading, and that we are supposed to permanently merge with the Oversoul after the higher plane experience. If you think you are supposed to reincarnate, you probably will - and look at all the reincarnation promo we've been inundated with in the past 40 years in Illuminati-controlled New Age literature and Hollywood films to condition us to do that. But if you think you are supposed to continue your growth in the higher plane afterlife and eventually merge with the Oversoul, you'll probably do that. It may not be more difficult than this to avoid the reincarnation trap.

Remember: You don't need to reincarnate; you are not chained to the reincarnation cycle; you will not be penalized in any way or miss out on anything if you don't reincarnate; you don't need to come back to evolve or clear Karma or reach final enlightenment; not reincarnating is what is supposed to happen!!! I find this to be an incredibly exciting, liberating, revolutionary idea.

What about past life recalls and Karma? Past life "recalls" are the bleed-through of your other simultaneous incarnations. A relationship in which you feel you have known someone from another life, or when you have flashbacks of yourself in another life - these are happening right now in some other Earth time period. As for Karma, I believe that the Karma doctrine, while it contains some truth, has been distorted in order to serve as a control mechanism just like the reincarnation doctrine has been distorted.

It does seem to be true that we each create our experience and our vibrations draw things to us. There does appear to be a law of cause and effect. We create Karma through actions and thoughts but most importantly through unresolved feelings that accumulate to form a pool of subconscious energetic negativity, which then draws negative experiences, conditions, and people to us. But now I'm thinking that whatever Karma we create is most probably played out during our life on Earth and/or during the important after-life phase before we return to the Oversoul. If you harbor negative energies in the subconscious, you will draw corresponding circumstances to yourself in this life, even to the point of illness, and that's Karma working itself out. If these negative energies are not all worked out during Earth life, they determine where on the next plane you will land after passing out of the body, and your subsequent circumstances. It's entirely feasible that Karmic negative as well as positive energies are fully exhausted by the time the post- Earth existence comes to an end - indeed, that's what signifies the end - and then we return to full consciousness as we permanently join our Oversoul. Blavatsky's Theosophy does in fact make the point that the post-Earth Astral and "Devachanic" or Heaven plane experience is a playing out of Karma. Why then would we need to return to Earth to balance Karma? It has already been exhausted.

What then accounts for the inequities of birth and the innate abilities and qualities that people are born with? As the Oversoul splits off a spark of itself to create a new human being, different aspects of itself are emphasized, making each simultaneous incarnation a unique creation. In addition, the Oversoul needs to have the complete dualistic range of human experiences - dark and light, easy and hard, fortunate and cursed, lonely and loved, male and female. Accordingly, it chooses different experiences and manifests different talents and liabilities in each soul. However, it does seem likely that some talents and liabilities from other lives are passed on to a new incarnation, so we have musical prodigies as well as abject suffering that we can’t account for, and this could be thought of as Karmic carry-over. As the Oversoul accumulates all this human knowledge it grows and matures, gaining from the journey of that incarnation. Add to this the brutal truth that the Earth plane is indeed a kind of boot camp for the soul, and that we unfortunately learn more quickly through difficult circumstances than through easy times.

The good news part of all of this is that apparently all Oversouls now appearing on Earth voluntarily chose the Earth multiple simultaneous incarnation experience in order to speed up their consciousness evolution. This was done with full knowledge of the Dark forces currently dominating Earth experience. In fact, the Dark forces and the highly negative conditions we face are the reason why we grow so much, if we can only not cave in and be overwhelmed. Life on Earth is relatively short, and we just need to hang on for a few years and maximize the opportunity. Raising your vibration, becoming involved with legitimate spiritual (not religious) practice, learning as much as possible about the other planes of existence, studying humanistic (not cognitive) psychology, philosophy and metaphysics, working to recognize and eliminate addictions and material attachments, approaching relationships with integrity, developing higher right-brain abilities and talents such as in the arts, becoming aware of how the Dark forces operate, and so on - that's how you make the most of your time here.

Once I became comfortable with the Oversoul concept and the idea of returning to it, I found this strategy to be more meaningful for me than the vague idea of returning to Source after physical death, although that would probably work if it appeals to you. Your Source (or whatever name that might be used to designate a higher power) would turn out to be your Oversoul, because according to the paradigm discussed here, that's the next stop in your ascension process. If you were to insist that Source meant the primal, original Infinite Source, something to consider is that the vibrational jump from the 4D or 5D Earth sphere to it is probably too great to be managed all at once. This is why both the decension and ascension move in many manageable vibrational jumps between an Undersoul and its Oversoul; that's how we become one again. And, although I have been speaking about the Oversoul as an entity outside oneself in order to clarify the mechanics of incarnation, it's always critical to keep in mind the first principle of esoteric spiritual practice which assumes that any higher source is to be found by going within; that as you expand yourself you discover the Infinite; that you are the Infinite; that you should never give your power away to any kind of outside authority who controls you, makes demands, sets rules, needs to be placated or worshipped, considers you to be subservient, or is said to be indispensable for achieving grace, happiness, salvation, or enlightenment.

It's interesting to quote from the Matrix 5 book by Val Valerian (not the movie): "They want to recycle low to lower mid-level spirits into another breeding productive incarnation; hence, the light and tunnel trap." Notice the "low to lower mid-level." If this is true, it would not include anyone reading this article. If you have finished and understood this article, you are not low or low-mid consciousness, you are advanced consciousness and you may by this definition be exempt from the trap or be able to easily see through it, but of course, you still want to be on guard. Similarly, it may be only lower-level incarnations who fall for the review session. That lower-levels are indeed being successfully trapped and recycled would help explain why the world population has jumped so dramatically in the past century along with an apparent decline in the consciousness level.

It's important to incorporate these principles we've discussed into a regular consciousness practice. This instills into the subconscious that you are to return home to the Oversoul, in order to counter the enormous reincarnation propaganda mind-control conditioning you've been exposed to all your life if you're a New Ager or on any of the Eastern paths. A regular practice also opens related chakra doorways to higher world experiences while on the physical plane. I meditate twice a day, and part of what I do is to spend time focused on the Third Eye, maybe for 10 minutes, sometimes longer, followed by focusing on the Crown chakra for another 10 minutes. As an experienced meditator, activating these points shifts me to other planes. The Third Eye is like stepping out into a new expansive dimension, going beyond mind, time, and space, and the Crown to me represents communing with the Oversoul. These exercises are highly enjoyable and in no way do I need to discipline myself to do them. You don't need to strain yourself - just relax and enjoy them. Raising your consciousness and vibration through such practices is one of the best ways to take full advantage of your days on Earth, and to assure your connection to the Oversoul when the time comes.

My sources: Matrix 5, Seth Speaks, Seat of the Soul, Lobsang Rampa, Robert Monroe, Paul Brunton, C.C. Zain, Bashar, a few various websites, and some original inspiration. It's curious that there is not much information about the Oversoul -Simultaneous Incarnation concept to be found in spiritual or New Age literature or on the internet, and what is to be found often presents an incomplete or faulty explanation, in my opinion. Certainly in traditional Eastern spiritual circles, you will not find anything except the standard reincarnation-Karma scheme. If anyone knows of other sources, please share.

Remember: If you expect to reincarnate, you probably will; if you expect to permanently merge with your Oversoul, you probably will.

Be well!
