Title: Recognizing Contrasts in Healing Trauma from Abuse - Part 3 

A Past Life in Contrast 

A Past Life and Now time memory in contrast
Past lives are just a ‘moment’ in time that can be simultaneous in experience to our present circumstances. In the understanding of that, I want to share a ‘past life’ story that demonstrates this ‘innerstanding’ of contrasts and levels of awareness from a non-dualistic perspective. This experience isn’t particularly easy to discuss, because it’s a touchy subject for many. Yet, I found it powerful to experience the choices I had, the decision I made that felt most aligned to my past action and virtues in that moment.

It has so many similarities connected to what is happening now in the world. What is also interesting is that I was ‘born’ into a ‘Jewish’ family in the next ‘moment’ present life experience in my soul journey. This contrasted the past ‘moment’ story where another moment of choice changed my soul journey.

My name was Aaron Schmidt, and I was an SS officer in Himmler’s gestapo. I was twenty-six years old. I joined with others to protect our motherland against the Jews and against their banking industry. That’s what I thought as that was what I was told by ‘authorities’—the politicians and the media– that the Jews had taken over our money, caused the bankruptcy of our country, the depression, and would take us over if we didn’t stop them. I had no idea, at that historical time, about the Rothschilds and the central banking industry influence on Germany.

Part of the information was that Jews were full of disease, because they were perverse with perverse ideas. While exploring this memory in the present time, I didn’t know that in the 1920’s, Berlin was actually a city with similar energy to the biblical ‘Sodom and Gomorrah’--full of debauchery, perverseness, promiscuity, transgenderism, partner swapping, fetishes, sex trafficking, and more.

I heard that through our ‘great leader’, Hitler, we would be brought back to dignity, health, and prosperity. In order to do this, we would have to be separate from the Jews and others whose personalities defaced the restoration of our true strength, pride, and unity.

As I started to see what was really going on in the arrests that were being made, and the way that the Gestapo and German politics were operating–-the false stories from the press and movie reels, the segregation mandates, the labeled clothes, and the violence that was occurring–I knew things were amiss.

I had heard rumors of a final solution coming from the camps not knowing fully what that was or if it was true or not. I would discuss all this was another German soldier buddy over Schnapps at the local pub. We both agreed that things needed to be looked into more deeply. [Interestingly, I know this man personally in this lifetime. He was born to a German mother and a father who had been a US soldier during WW2.] 

I had been assigned to work in Himmler’s unit by invading Jewish homes to round up everyone and to send them on the trains to ‘labor’ camps. I started to hate what I was doing as my fellow officers and myself would burst into homes dragging out families and searching homes where Jews might be hidden. I saw the innocent faces of humans, particularly children, in terror and fear. After, we would take their belongings to give to our department or take for our own. It was hurting my heart and soul.

I made a decision to do something about it. I started to warn the families ahead of time who were listed for arrests. When the officers and myself went to arrest them, they would be gone.

This started to happen so frequently that the whole department felt that there was a snitch or undercover person involved. I acted along with them in wondering what was happening.

But my cover didn’t last too long. One afternoon, I was at the railway station in Munich. My department had several men there, as well as the head officer.

From a distance, I saw along with the other officers, a 13-year-old Jewish boy frantically running away from the trains. He was caught by my head officer who started to beat him savagely.

I couldn’t contain myself any longer. I screamed, “Don’t hurt him! He is only a boy!”

The head officer stopped the beating and turned to me. “Ahh, so Schmidt, you like Jews?! Well, I have a job for you. Under my orders, take your gun and shoot him now.”

I was in shock but spoke to the officer in defiance of his orders. “No, I won’t do that! He has done nothing wrong. He is young. He didn’t cause what is going on in our country!”

In a voice of cold superiority, the head officer commanded, “Then you have a choice. You kill him now, or I’ll kill you.”

I looked straight at him, eye to eye, and repeated, “No, I won’t do it.”

Quickly, the officer took out his gun and shot me point blank right into my forehead. I died on the spot at the station in 1940.

Pause. Receive a breath. All is perfect. I processed this experience many years ago. The story, though, is as pertinent then as it is now.

Actions aligned with my heart
I don’t know what happened to the boy in having left my body. I didn’t ask while in trance. I just knew my actions were aligned with my heart. I realized that I had a choice in that instant moment of time to stand in my truth of what was about to happen. I had no idea if the boy would be protected or not from my spontaneous decision. I just knew that this is what I needed to say and do.

Ultimately, choosing my heart rather than harming another could be seen as actions from contrast—choosing right instead of wrong, light instead of dark, action instead of collapse. The opposites come from the 5th Plane perspectives of dualism.

It was truly about staying in connection with myself and what felt in alignment to the energy of my values and virtues at the time. It was moving past the deep programming of violence towards others who were seen as different, thus scapegoated. Also, it was separating from others’ unlawful orders in becoming one with my heart’s actions.

Precipice of choice
We are at that precipice of choice at this time for humanity. Use the contrast to see and feel what is possible in moving beyond the deceptions and false appearances to understand what is really going on for you, in the world, and back to your heart.

Feel deeply, because action from this place is necessary. That action can just be out in the world in service and purpose, or that you stay open to the truth of what is occurring now while anchoring in conscious connection to Creator through meditation. I’m an inner activist so action through writing and speaking is what works best for me.

I trust you’ll make the best decision for yourself as the changing of the guards unfolds.
