Nature or God is always kind to us. Like a super mother, nature does everything to protect us. Forgetting our previous lives is one such protection mechanism of nature.
It is beneficial that we do not remember our past lives. Otherwise, life would be significantly harder for most people. Life is already challenging at times for many of us, and the memories of past births would add more burden and pain to our daily lives.
Consider These Situations Related to Memories of Previous Births:
Complex Relationships: Imagine your father in this life was your husband or son in a previous life. This is possible because souls often take birth in groups and are closely related in different relationships. Your wife could have been your sister, daughter, mother, or grandmother in a previous life. It depends on the karma she needs to balance with you or the role she has to play in your life. However, many times, the husband-wife relationship extends across multiple lifetimes. In Hinduism, there is a prayer during marriage that the couple should be married for seven lifetimes.
Betrayal and Trust: Your best friend in this life might have betrayed you in a previous life. In this life, they could be balancing that betrayal by helping you. But if you knew about the past betrayal, you might never be friendly with them.
Guilt and Regret: If you lived a very bad life in a previous birth, this memory would bring a lot of guilt and regret into your current life.
Economic Status: Imagine being a rich person in a past life and now struggling to make ends meet. It would be very difficult to accept your present circumstances. Just think if your servant from a previous life is your boss in this life—how would you deal with that situation?
These types of possibilities could arise if you remembered your previous births, adding a lot of trauma and problems to your life. You wouldn’t know how to handle relationships effectively. Therefore, it’s better to forget past lives. Anyhow, the learning from previous births is within us, and that is sufficient.
Nature's Protective Mechanism
Nature wants you and others to have a fair chance to grow and balance your karmas. If someone cheated you in a previous life, you should give them a fair chance to be friendly with you and balance their karma in this life.
Although the memory of previous births is wiped out, the energetic phenomena still work. For example, if someone was a good friend to you in a past life, you might feel an unexplained friendliness towards them in this life. You may not know why you are open and friendly to this person, but the feeling will be there. The same is true for animosity and other feelings. Someone who cheated you in a previous life might attract suspicion from you at first meeting. These energetic impressions vary from person to person, depending on our intuition, sensitivity, and mental state at that moment.
Never try to remember your past lives unless you can deal with your emotions from a higher perspective or have attained great stability in meditation. Nature, in its infinite wisdom, ensures that we have a fresh start in each life, unburdened by the weight of past memories. This allows us to grow, learn, and balance our karmas fairly and effectively.
Remember, the purpose of life is to live it fully and learn from our experiences here and now. Trust in the divine plan, and focus on making the best of your current life.
