Greetings from the Old Guard.

[stormflux]

I was originally hesitant to post this introduction, but I decided that I should go ahead with it anyways.

I am a bit standoffish to the prospect of being very open online at this time, not because of my past life or who I was, but because of who I am now - which is someone weary and with little patience left to play in this sh*t that seeps into most PL (especially Third Reich related ones) online. Blame wars, trolls and flaming. I am so over it. I was not going to join another, but this place seems like the goal is healing, so I am going to be moderately hopeful.

In truth, I am mostly here to read other's stories, and potentially make a friend or two. That'd be nice.

All I'll say about my spiritual experience for now:
- I recall at least 6 lives, two in great detail, two in moderate detail, two fizzling around erratically in my head.
- My lives range from being a samurai in Japan, an idealist in France, a doctor in England, and a General in Germany.

I am here for the German one, obviously. I do have a name and a face, in regards to my past life, and if you are curious I'll let you know. Otherwise just know that I was Leibstandarte (Hitler's Guard) and then a Panzer General and while I actually advocated AGAINST the arrest and persecution of Jews, I do have a lot of guilt, though it pertains more to military decisions and acts of war and not the Holocaust. Hopefully that is still a subject of interest in this forum.

I think the idea of this place is lovely and look forward to reading all of your experiences.

Hello Stormflux and welcome to SR :-)

Yes, we are a very special community here and we work hard to ensure that our members feel safe and secure when offering up information about such controversial material as Nazi reincarnation. You don't have to have been involved directly with the Holocaust per-se, I wasn't, at least not the Jewish side of things, I served in the Kreigsmarines, with possibly some affiliation to the SS, but at this stag the jury's out. Some of our members like Gumby were German citizens for instance. :-)

So far, we seem to have avoided any tirades from neo-Nazis on the boards, although the occasional 'troll' or trouble-maker does drift through, they are removed very swiftly if their intentions are to attack others or espouse their dubious political ideas. So yes, please relax, read through posts to get a 'feel' for folks here and when you feel ready, we will be delighted to hear your story :-)

All the best
Liz :-)

Thank you muchly. Some members cross over onto different accounts so I'll probably still be cautious for awhile. I am averse to conflict where it doesn't belong.

I think that's awesome that you have so many members, of such diverse roles. Should certainly prove an interesting stay.

I appreciate the welcome. :]

Hiya welcome!

Greetings.

I, too, find myself being standoffish about this whole PL business for similar reasons. And, like you, I've had enough of the games and disingenuous nonsense that is so prevalent many other places. Thus far, however, everyone has been, in a word, great.

Anyway, again, welcome to the forum. I hope you find the healing and reconciliation you seek.

[stormflux]

There's a whole lotta smilin' goin' on. I'll add one:

Thanks all. I look forward to lounging about and sharing with a sense of comfort and security.

So glad both you chaps feel at ease here :-) I've not really got involved in any other forums dealing with this subject matter, but I can imagine it could be a hot-bed for all sorts of unpleasantness, given the sensitive nature of the subject matter. Hopefully when Laurasia (site creator/chief admin) gets on line, she will be able to answer some of your queries about the site (I'm fairly new in admin, and not always able to solve site problems and issue) :-)

Hello and welcome. This, for me, is the only forum I would be a member of. I have heard about the daft games that sometimes go on elsewhere. These journeys are about healing and reconciliation so this board, for me, is the best online community in this area. Hope you get as much out of it as I and other have.

[stormflux]

Reconciliation indeed. I am grateful for that; in another time you in particular would (with reason) be decidedly unhappy to see me.

[Storm]

If the word sow was mentioned I might be, but times have moved on

[stormflux]

Hahah! I am almost certain I started that. I do apologize.
In any case, thank you for your welcome.

[Laurasia]

Hello Stormflux.

Welcome to the forum. I can certainly understand your wariness to open up about such a life at this point. I too have dealt with the blame, games & ridiculousness that can surround discussions about lifetimes such as these on other forums & that is why I created this one. We are here to heal, not kick salt into anyone's very real wounds & certainly not to perpetuate any negative issues stemming from these lifetimes for one another.

Just relax, get to know others & in time you may find yourself actually excited by the prospect of sharing your recollections & thoughts with people who are both happy to hear them & heal from hearing them as well. ;D (And, yes, many of us tend to "smile a lot" in order to better convey emotions & moods since flat text can be misinterpreted so easily.)

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact one of the staff.

Sincerely,
Laurasia

Hi stormflux. I'm completely new here and just read your intro. This is the only forum I have joined; it is too bad there have been difficulties with others. Hopefully we will all find something positive and healing here. I know I am learning a lot as I begin to read others' stories, and feel less alone with my own story. Blessings to all.
