Backtracking Identities
When talking about identities or valences, many listeners associate this
topic with 'multiple personalities disorder' or schizophrenic behavior in
general.
However, these much ridiculized forms of identity-switching are just
extreme versions of what 'normal' persons of the un-cleared kind are doing
many times during the course of a 'normal' day without being aware of it.
What stands out in the extreme form is the switching of entire _sets_ of
identities; sets, that seem to contradict each other in a dramatic way,
manifesting without apparent external motivation and in a very short time.
It is this extremeness that is drawing the attention and the puzzlement of
the observer.
On a smaller scale, however, a person that is being pulled over by a cop
for speeding, is typically switching its identity sets nearly as fast as a
'schizophrenic' person.
And, on an even smaller scale, persons use different identities all the
time when they talk to their boss at work, to their spouse at home, to a
stranger they meet on the street, when speaking in front of a small group
of persons, or when speaking to a large group of persons.
Moreover, most personalities are not experiencing emotions in a
self-determined way. They are 'being carried away' by identities that are
stuck on exactly that emotional level which is then being experienced by
the person.
As with everything in this Universe, 'identities' have been created at
some time and in some place. They have been created by the Being itself
and can therefore be addressed via processes executed by the very Being
that created it.
Since there are chains of identities, working through such sequences of
identities can be called 'backtracking identities'.
There was originally no intention of presenting detailed instructions or
descriptions of processes as such in this 'Little Purple Notebook Of How
To Escape From This Universe' since there are already large collections of
processes readily available in the public domain, notably on the Internet.
Exceptions are being made only for processes that the author cannot find
anywhere else and for those processes that exist but which are not always
recognized as such, as it is the case with the 'Nirvana Process', for
example.
In general, processes do not 'run' when the person is not ready for them.
Someone reading about entity handling without having awareness of entities
is not likely to restimulate case by reading about processes for handling
entities.
'Backtracking identities' could potentially be run by anybody - with or
without experience in running processes.
For this reason, it should be pointed out that 'processing' should be
learned step-by-step, starting with easy examples that are not prone to
stir up heavy stuff. The processor should be familiar with the most
important remedies for problems that may occur. Just as an example, the
processor should have already worked out his or her most effective
'havingness process'.
Even with experience in training as presented by the 'Transformational
Processing' series of F.A. Funch or by the 'Self-Clearing Handbook' of 'The
Pilot', it is a very good
idea to be sure to have access to a professional processor _before_
engaging in any adventures with exotic processes that are presented
isolated from comprehensive and premeditated 'programmes' (sometimes called
'bridges').
With this in mind, here is a look at the birth of an identity:
when life is going along just fine, there is usually no
reason to change anything. However, if there is a dramatic
change of events, the person may be prompted to change
its approach to life in an equally dramatic way.
The typical case is that of a significant loss such as the death of a
close friend or the failure in providing the means for livelihood, such as
the loss of a job or larger amounts of money.
The most dramatic loss a Being can experience on its way through this
Universe, is the death of its 'own' body. Most major identity changes are
prompted by this confrontation with 'death', even if it is only a
'near-death' experience.
'Backtracking identities' can therefore be used to plot the sequence of
identity changes over the course of past lives. Such a table is called a
'line plot' and it will always produce a circular pattern. In other words,
the sequence of identities is _repeating_ itself.
This repetition can be likened to a rotating wheel: every point on the
wheel will eventually touch ground again - every identity will be
manifested in this Universe again -
unless the circle is broken.
Since the Being loses power with every turn of the circular arrangement of
identities, a better picture than the wheel would be a 'dwindling
spiral'. If the power threatens to vanish completely, the Being may break
out of the wheel altogether, and will then typically enter just yet
another circular arrangement in a completely different paradigm.
The act of 'Escaping From This Universe' could be also formulated as
'breaking out of the wheels of existences in a self-determined and
conscious way'.
In many cases, the pattern of identity shifts during a life-time _mirrors_
the shifts over lifetimes - the 'line plot'. This is a 'fractal'
phenomenon in which the larger picture repeats itself in a smaller scale.
Therefore, backtracking identities (or perhaps better: identity shifts)
can give important clues about the 'big picture'.
The process itself looks innocent enough:
* feel the identity currently assumed and ask for the
identity that _preceded_ the current identity.
It is neither necessary nor advisable to examine the exact act of
switching at this point (yet). After all, the switch of identity was most
often prompted by a heavy traumatic incident and the _new_ identity is
generally _less_ powerful than the previous one.
The previous identity should be fully recovered ('rehabilitated') first.
This is a most pleasant and joyfull enterprise!
After recovery, it would be tempting to look at the 'switch' of identities
again that led to the less powerful identity.
However, the previous identity had been abandoned because of an overwhelm
and may not be strong enough to confront the specifics of the situation
even now - years or eons later.
Before examining switches, the identity prior to the previous identity
should be recovered first by the same process.
But again, the switching itself is not asked for in the backtracking
process itself and is better addressed as a much later step in a
'mini-programme' that covers not only the switching but also the prompting
situations and, very importantly, the opposing identities that are
catalyzing the synthesis of the 'brand-new' identity.
'Backtracking identities' can lead to incredible experiences in a very
short of time. In especially, it will not only bring up 'past lives' in
just a few iterations but it can also break through 'dwindling spirals'
themselves.
Therefore, a couple of words about 'past lives' and 'evolution' seems in
order.
If one looks at a point a wheel, there is an upward movement towards the
top and a downwards movement towards the ground.
If the current life is on the 'upswing' part, looking back to 'past lives'
would yield an 'improving' picture.
This is the illusion of evolution.
It does not consider the downswing (which is extremely difficult to
confront) and it does not look at _prior_ turns of the wheel.
From this viewpoint, it is impossible to perceive _preceding_ wheels that
occured within completely different paradigms.
Therefore, even persons who are able to look back to their past lives,
either with a natural ability or with the help of modern 'processes', are
often unable to perceive the wheels within other lifeforms.
From that perspective, life _appears_ as an evolutionary process and
lifeforms as animals, for example, are not perceived as even being
possible.
Ironically, many persons who are able to perceive past lives are then
making the very same mistake that persons make who don't perceive any past
lives at all: just because _they_ cannot perceive them, they declare them
impossible altogether.
The problem of 'past life recall' is compounded by the circumstance that
time itself is an illusion and a very individual and subjective
perception.
A 'random' past life recall can yield a host of contradictionary
information for the following reasons:
* 'normal' time tracks are twisted, broken, and convoluted;
* Beings are known to 'steal' time tracks from other Beings;
* the recall may be accessing the time track of a body entity that the
Being is improperly identifying with;
* the recall may be impinged upon by an external source ('channeling');
* the Being may jump ahead in time loops or Universe repetitions (for
example, the 'last' life happened in the 'future' of the current
Universe but during an earlier instance);
* etc.
Now, where does repetitive backtracking of identities is leading to in the
end?
This question will most certainly have a different answer for every Being.
But there appears to be a 'break-away point', first postulated by Gotamo
Siddharto (now known as the 'Buddha'), at which a Being recognizes the
compulsive and circular sequence of identities it has been engaging in for
countless eons.
At this point the Being recognizes that in all that time it had never been
truly touched by any of this - its core has been, is now, and will always
remain outside time and space, beyond life and death.
The Being has now the ultimate choice: to continue to observe the
spectacle of the games in this Universe and to proceed meddling with all
this, or to just enjoy itself the way it
really 'is'.
