Relationships In Your Next Existence
There are no magic words that will make you wise, that will fill you with understanding and compassion, that will expand your consciousness.
You are setting the stage for your relationships in your next existence now. The thoughts you think today will in one way or another become the fabric of your next life.
Your thoughts and everyday experience contain the answers.
Any successes in this life, any abilities, have been worked out through past experience.
They are yours by right.

Seth: “You are setting the stage for your “next” life now. The thoughts you think today will in one way or another become the fabric of your next existence. There are no magic words that will make you wise, that will fill you with understanding and compassion, that will expand your consciousness.
Your thoughts and everyday experience contain the answers. Any successes in this life, any abilities, have been worked out through past experience. They are yours by right. You worked to develop them. If you look about you at your relatives, friends, acquaintances, and business associates, you will also see what kind of a person you are, for you are drawn to them as they are drawn to you, through very basic inner similarities.
If you examine your thoughts for five minutes at various times during the day for several times a month, you will, indeed, receive a correct impression of the kind of life you have so far arranged for yourself in the next existence. If you are not pleased with what you discover, then you had better begin changing the nature of your thoughts and feelings.
As you will see later in this book, you can do so. There is no rule saying that in each life you must meet again those whom you have known before. And yet, through the nature of attraction, that is often the case.
You may be born into your present family for many reasons. You may find after death a much stronger relationship emotionally with a personality from a past life. If you are married, for example, and have no true rapport with your mate, you may instead find a past wife or husband waiting for you.
Oftentimes, members of various groups (military groups, church groups, hunting groups) will in another life form family relationships in which they will then work out old problems in new ways. Families must be considered as gestalts of psychic activity. They have a subjective identity, of which no particular member of the group may be aware.
Families have subconscious purposes, though the individual members of the family may pursue these goals without conscious awareness. Such groups are set up ahead of time, so to speak, in between physical existences. Oftentimes four or five individuals will set themselves a given challenge and assign to the various members different parts to play. Then in a physical existence the roles will be worked out.
The inner self is always aware of the hidden mechanisms of these family gestalts. Those who have been closely bound through emotional ties often prefer to remain in closely tied or loosely tied physical relationships that continue through many lifetimes. New relationships are always encouraged, however, for you can have ingrown reincarnational “families. Many of these form physical organizations that are actually manifestations of inner groupings.”
