Or, for that matter, if you've got some idea who *you* might have been in a previous incarnation, do tell. A couple of people suggested to me, independent of one another, that I might have been Mark Twain. I guess they thought so because of some similarities in our personalities, or my Tom Sawyerish nature. There were some similarities in our lives. I was born and used to teach TM in Connecticut. He lived and died there. His wife was from Buffalo. My father grew up there. His wife slipped on the ice and injured herself seriously. My wife is inordinately afraid of slipping and falling. He lived in the Midwest near where I live. He visited India and was interested in yogis, siddhis, etc. He visited Switzerland and sat on a bench on Lake Lucerne. I sat on the same bench, or at least at the same spot. But I have no intuitive insight of having been him, or anyone. I did have a heavy dream on my 6 month course that seemed to be a past life unstressing. In it, I was running along a beach at night, in a state of great fear, with bombers droning overhead. A woman whose TTC I taught told me I was a journalist in WWII and had been killed in the war. I was born in 1949. Who knows? It's interesting to think that one's physical remains from previous lives are probably still scattered around the world in various graves.
