I strongly believe most of us have had past lives elsewhere in the universe! That a lot of us have past incarnations on planets at similar levels of development as the Earth! But, some have come from incarnations on planets more advanced than the Earth! That an awful lot of us are still connected spiritually to spirits we met in past lives who are now living elsewhere in this universe. That is is so important that we focus on getting our act together on this planet and not believe we are going to be “saved” by some aliens arriving here via spaceship from elsewhere in this universe. That we the inhabitants of this Earth are the ones responsible for the state our planet we exist on is in and the future state it will be in!

Reincarnation – Empowering us spiritually
The spiritual theory of Reincarnation is empowering to us spiritually and make us more aware that our future is in our hands even beyond this life. That we as individual spirits are an important factor spiritually in making a positive difference in this challenging physical universe we are part of. That God(the universal spirit) is not autocratic and thus shares power with advanced individual spirits like us and we are responsible to continuously do our part spiritually as valuable assets on the front lines when incarnated in challenging physical worlds that can bring out the most in us spiritually. That escaping from dealing with the challenges this world deal us is not a smart option since we will face similar challenges in the future beyond this life and need to keep developing our coping skills and ability to contribute what we have of unique value.
Continuous reincarnation is the best spiritual theory for getting people to really value and be effective in their current reality they exist in, because they will just continue in it and its cycles for ever! No escape! So they better seriously face it and become good at handling it spiritually. That is why this theory is most likely the truth! Because it is the one that enables people to get the most out of themselves spiritually! It just works the best, and that is what counts the most spiritually. It is not just a make someone feel good theory like some type of drug!
Here is a link to a YouTube video in which I discuss this subject in more detail:

It is up to the inhabitants of this planet to make a positive difference here!
So often people look for or expect help from the “outside” to somehow change the conditions on this planet for them or provide them with a better place to exist in after they die. But, why should they deserve a better place to exist in if they are not willing to do the really hard work required in order to make the changes required in order to improve the conditions they now have in their life as individuals and as part of a bigger society?
What has happened in the past or what people want to believe happened in the past has a strong impact on what people expect to happen in the future and how it will come about. People who believe most of humanities past achievements especially in ancient times were mainly the result of the help of “ancient astronauts” or that only certain “special” individuals born with a “special” connection with God have provided us regular human inhabitants of this Earth with special knowledge to help us understand how things work spiritually, will tend not to be so willing to do the work required to achieve amazing things themselves in order to make a real difference in the physical/spiritual knowledge/conditions that exist on this planet.
Our spiritual progress on this planet is being held back by “autocratic type” spiritual beliefs from “special” sources that supposively give us the “Truth” that can not be questioned or improved on. This sets up a spiritual status quo that is very hard to change on this planet, and since the spiritual underlies everything, really limits what progress we can make on this planet. And we do need to progress a lot further on this planet if we are to advert quite negative consequences in its future. Amazing things may have been achieve by ancient civilizations, but these advance civilizations of the past did not survive in their advanced state. They may have been as advanced spiritually as we are now, but that may have not been good enough spiritually to ensure their survival in an advanced state. I believe the amazing things achieved by these ancient civilizations(pyramids etc., that scientists have a hard time figuring out) were made by the native inhabitants that existed there, without any need for outside intervention! I believe human being have been very capable for quite some time on this planet.
I believe we, the individual spirits that are incarnated on this Earth, are the prime spiritual forces that are responsible for creating the conditions that exist here. Our Universe has a universal spirit that underlies it and provides it with the necessary degree of unity required for it to function adequately. God, the universal spirit, just makes sure that the challenging physical reality we exist in is able to serve us well provided we do the required work to understand it and to perform well in it! God makes us earn whatever results we achieve here.
I feel that we, the incarnated inhabitants of this planet, are the ones with the spiritual power here. That any positive change that occurs here will be up to us. I believe God will only help those who do the required work to deserve/earn God’s help. I see God as existing in order for us to have a physical reality that enables us to exist. That if individual spirits like us did not exist, God would not exist. That a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship exists with each requiring each other in order to exist and perform their important roles.
The main point I am trying to make is that it is up to us and our efforts individually and collectively to make a positive difference on this planet physically and spiritually. We do not need to depend on outside forces to do it for us. We do need to learn more of how this universe functions both physically and spiritually and do the hard work required to tune into the Universal Spirit(God)in order to help us do this.

Taking spiritual responsibility for improving the spiritual state this planet is in.
We must understand that it is up to us to be responsible for improving the spiritual state this world is in. I feel people need to understand that it is up to them to do the hard spiritual/physical training and deep spiritual thinking and testing(through trial and error)required to develop or understand better how the spiritual works. Looking to spirits/beings not incarnated on or native to this planet to do the work for us is just not going to work that well and has not done well for us in the past. I feel that a lot of people on this planet have not had their spiritual beliefs challenged/tested enough, so are able to hold on to fantasy/luxury type beliefs that can only do well under really sheltered conditions, but would not hold up to the stress of facing a really heavy and difficult dose of reality.
People who are well aware personally of the serious problems that exist on this planet, will tend to get very practical in their spiritual beliefs, because luxury type beliefs just would not be stripped down enough to that which works the best on a basic mechanical level spiritually. Being overindulgent in the type of spiritual beliefs we have can render us with not enough of a serious/efficient focus spiritually in order to rationally address the really complex and difficult problems of the highly advance technological age we now exist in. We live in an age where a lot of people live overly indulging/permissive lifestyles and tend to have spiritual beliefs that mirror this. A lot of our problems in this world are the result of this type of an overindulging/permissive lifestyle. If we are to straighten out this world spiritually, we are going happen to focus more on what really counts.
These indulgent spiritual beliefs will not help one to do the spiritual training required to become in the type of physical/spiritual shape that will help one to handle the really intense stress of taking on the really intense spiritual challenges that exist here now on this Earth. Listen to the news if you are not spiritual aware enough of the challenges that exist here on this Earth at this time. We have to do our part spiritually to transform the conditions on this Earth and we must do our part spiritually to improve our spiritual beliefs so as to do so. People who specialize in the spiritual can really work hard to come up with better spiritual beliefs and training techniques. And those with other specialties required on this Earth can learn what they personally need to know about the spiritual from these spiritual specialists so that they can best contribute what they have to offer to this world. Different people have different abilities the can develop and contribute.
We need to have really high spiritual standards as to the type of world we exist in, and not be overly tolerant/permissive of spiritual beliefs that are not good enough to uphold a really high standard. We can not please everyone spiritually when we are into doing everything it takes to get into the best condition physically/spiritually. But, sometimes it is more important to focus on what really works than pleasing people or winning a spiritual popularity contest. When one focuses on what really works spiritually one will reach and connect with the people that count the most when it comes to making a positive difference in this world. Sometimes one needs to focus more on function than looks or appeal.
