A Question (03) has arisen: If there is a soul that survives physical
death, why do we not remember our previous incarnations?
Any answer to this one, please?
Does the answer lie in harmonics, again?

HELLO EVERYONE
QUESTION 01 "Is the sense of 'SELF' created by the existence of the body? "
As followers of Buddhism, we believe that there is nothing called 'self' in this life. What we call as 'self' is just a collection of material phenomena which make up our body and the mental aggregates including the consciousness and the "mental factors" which support the consciousness. We are existing as 'us' only in this life. After the moment of death, we are conceived somewhere else as a human, an animal, a divine being, a hungry ghost or even in hell according to our past Karmas, as a totally different being. So, there is no 'self'.
"It is positive to be aware of one`s own uniqueness,
positive to love oneself and to use it to encourage
others to live their quality.""Would you still call it vanity if you used a mirror to check your awareness...?"
Two wonderful statements for those who not only are "suffering" from lack of self-confidence and self- esteem, but also need a deeper refection of the
statement "you are the measurement"...
Would you still call it vanity if you used a mirror to check your awareness...?
Awareness doesn’t need to be checked, it’s just there, and it’s everything.
But Mirrors are required
to reflect The Light so that we can be able to reach this awareness.
Redeemed is The Mirror and blessed are those who have them in their life. Even if they have to learn to overcome duality and separation in practice in a grueling way…
Most of us believe that there is something 'Greater' in the universe. Question 06 What is the basis of our/your belief?
Personally, I believed in a Greater thing because of some spiritual people I encountered in my childhood and adolescence. Then, “something” in me felt the light, and I started to search. How successful I have been till now!!!
Searching for a new lesson or idea about something greater, I have asked some people from different countries if they believe in such thing or not. And at my surprise, they said no. I couldn’t believe it. How can one live without relying on this Something Greater? They said they don’t need to believe in such thing. They try their best to make their lives (earn money and live well). I felt they were so relieved. “Wanting to know this Greater thing, know ourselves, relying on HIM, trusting something other that us who may do exactly what we hate, etc. all are pain. These people are free from this pain. But who know whether or not they suffer a greater pain later in their next incarnation.
Anyway, after being in a big pain of wanting but not finding HIM, I decided to try the way the above-mentioned people go. But it is NOT possible if HE does want you to search for him. Such a sadistic “thing”, yeah? OK, I am kidding now, but the pain of unsuccessful search/ research for him is beyond imagination. Especially at times that you happily think “well, finally I find the path”. But then, you don’t know how to proceed, and you unintentionally open the doors for doubt. However, you have no choice but talking to yourself and telling yourself that “keep calm, you are doing well, just wait for HIS next decision for you".
"Patience and Trust”

Meditation brought first of all two things, into my life:
1. The release of hidden aspects and power2. The possibility to LIVE Compassion -- not just talk about it
And they are FELT even in your words... Or maybe the Compassion feels you! 💚
STILL waiting to feel these aspects in me...
