If there is rebirth we forget it. Some claim to remember it but often times it is an over active imagination
One has to progress very high before past lives are uncovered
At present, there are hardly a few souls who are even able to get to muladhar!
Muladhar – one should read mahayoga vigyan. It says there is airavat, ganesh, prithvi etc. people read about it online but have no experience. There are 56 rays as per Vishnutirthji there and each ray has a different divinity mantra etc
Sad how the vain ego of people make them claim knowledge of all these without any experience.
For recollection of past one has to go way beyond this
Thus when someone comes back, all knowledge of past is lost and one firmly believes in whatever religion or practice or environment they are born in.
It is only when there is a strong commitment to guru and wanting true progress and a sincere wish to destroy ego and not want a certificate from others that spiritual progress can continue
Surprisingly I see others – in the past they were on the right track and then lost it again for many births ! Amazing. If only they had humility they can accept guidance
