Past Life Test
http://www.beliefnet.com/section/quiz/index.asp?sectionID=&surveyID=192

Your Past Life





You scored 15, on a scale of 0 to 16. Here's how to interpret your score:
0 - 5
You seem grounded in the present, with no evidence of having lived another life. Maybe there's no such thing as a past life--or maybe this is just your first time around.
6 - 13
Based on your answers, you might be remembering a past life. Then again, you could just have an active imagination.
14 - 16
There's definitely something spooky going on here. Either you have an eerie ability to access past life memories or you're extraordinarily intuitive.

(Low end of this. I don't know. I used to have fire fears and premonitions as a kid. Other than that, I'm rather uninterested. I have enough to keep my soul busy trying to figure out the lessons of my current life.)

4. 15/16 but...
when I was very young I used to tell my (Catholic) parents about my former lives. I grew up assuming everybody knew they had been here before. (As a very young child I spoke fluent French without ever being exposed to the language, the legacy of my most recent past life in Canada.)

Boy was I shocked when I discovered that most people don't remember their past lives. The nuns at school and the priests at church told me I was wrong, but I knew better. So at age seven I told my parents I wasn't going to church with them any more because I had always been a Buddhist, and felt uncomfortable with such foolish Catholic nonsense as "original sin".

Surprisingly, they respected my decision, and I've been a practising Buddhist for the 52 years since then. In this lifetime, at least.

5. P.S.
You may not believe in reincarnation, but think about this...

Dr. Ian Stevenson (retired Child psychiatrist, professor and Chairman from the Univ. of Virginia Medical school) has some 3000+ case studies of children who claim to remember past lives. The average time between the death of the previous personality and the birth of the current life is 14 months.

Bush was born 14 months after Hitler died.

Coincidence? Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions. All I know is that the first time I ever saw George Bush I reacted with a deep visceral fear. I suspect he might be Hitler reincarnated.

7. 14 months is average, but some are long-cyclers
...and others are rapid-returners.

I know one kid who took ten months, and other people who've taken decades.

6. Coo!!
I never did the xenoglossy thing, except for waking up with random Russian words after dreaming about being the young Marxist who blew himself up by accident.

How long have you been cycling around?

My earliest known date is right around the time the Christians had just taken over Spain from the Muslims, but a psychic once said that my roomie and I had been friends since we were amoebae. :-)

8. Hey.
That's neat. I don't know how many rides I've taken on the merry-go-round of Samsara, but I do have fragmentary memories as far back as the 1400's in China or Tibet (not sure, but that general area).

I was a moderator on CPL, but I haven't been there for about 6 or 8 months.

I'm not a narcissist either.

Are You a Narcissist?





You scored 10, on a scale of 0 to 120. Here's how to interpret your score:
0 - 40
Selfless spirit. You don't think much of yourself--literally--and it's probably helped you get along with people and reduce the anxiety in your life

Past Life

You scored 9, on a scale of 0 to 16. Here's how to interpret your score

I don't know. I do get a sense of deja vu frequently. And I have met people who seem familiar and yet I can't explain why. :shrug:
