Interesting. I've heard stories about it before. I have always, ALWAYS wondered why sometimes I have that extreme sense of déjà vu where I see places and objects I have never seen before in my life, and it frustrates me because there's a familiar feel to them.

Voltaire: It is not more surprising to be born twice than once; everything in nature is resurrection.

It would make a certain sense. I believe it.

When you consider quantum theory, lots of unusual things seem possible. And this would just be a natural cycle in another unperceived form.

So, why not?

"Quantum" is thrown around more than vintage dresses in a drag queens wardrobe to "justify" spiritual claims. That's not how it works, and is nothing more than a perversion of what actual quantum physics/chemistry is. It's a complete misuse of the term in every which way.

How do you presume to know? Everything is energy and interconnected like a web through pathways of which could be traversed or manipulated. It all enforces how karmic and reincarnation concepts could work theoretically. Your strong solid denial of such doesn't merit anything.

But you are welcome to explain your personal view.

Prove it. Oh, that's right, you can't. Hence your claim is unsubstantiating and meaningless.

Surely you can do an unbiased research for yourself, if you are so unfamiliar with the concept.

My "claim" is no more meaningless than you thinking you're right and attacking it's integrity. You speak as if you know something factual, but you do not. I speak of a very real theoretical possibility that shouldn't be so hastily discarded because your Ego refuses to even consider it.

I already had the feeling of "oh God ! I have been here..once upon a time...".

I can't explain why, but it is a really deep feeling, not something coming from your imagination, it is rather a gut feeling/.

So, some explanation please ?


Reincarnation is the cornerstone of hinduism. Vicious circle of samsara...

To break up this circle, the hinduist has to live into perfect harmony so that his karma be at the end neither positive nor negative. The purpose is to reach unity between individual soul and cosmic soul.

Karma means "action" in sanskrit, cause and effect, we all choose our experiences to live before our birth !

So....incredible hè ? :newwink:


Reminiscence is what remains at the present moment from our past life.

Fears, talents, love for a country, subjects, languages, and even persons, past lives are sometimes the origin of a great passion to live here and now !

So... Déjà vu ? :smile:

Perhaps time is flowing backwards.

Well, if you're looking back at the past, time slips past you to the future...?

Does quantum work on the macro level like that?

Brain Facts.org: 'What causes deja vu.' http://www.brainfacts.org/about-neuroscience/ask-an-expert/articles/2014/what-causes-deja-vu/

How Stuff Works covers some of the 40 different theories (most of those "theories" however rely on the supernatural) on 'How Deja Vu Works': How Déjà Vu Works - HowStuffWorks

Science Daily, "The Psychology of Deja Vu.": http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/11/081118122146.htm

TL;DR Deja Vu = Your brain misfiring, 60-70% of us report experiencing it at some point.

I think it's possible to gain an understanding of someone who lived before. Certain individuals can leap out as making sense to you. This isn't the same thing as literally being a reincarnation of that person.

Hello,

I suspect Hard was using this line of thinking; "When debating any issue, there is an implicit burden of proof on the person asserting a claim." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophic_burden_of_proof

When someone then asks you to disprove their claim that has no evidence presented you are doing two things; 1) burden shifting https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/burden-of-proof 2) asking someone to prove a negative, which can't be done.

With that out of the way...

When you consider quantum theory, lots of unusual things seem possible. And this would just be a natural cycle in another unperceived form.

So, why not?

What Hard was doing was requesting evidence in order to evaluate your claim, followed by his reason for rejecting your claim, lack of evidence.
