This is a subject that has often come up during my treatments with people to help them have more ease with the awakening process.
Being human can often seem schizophrenic, even for people that haven’t had some sort of awakening. Learning about the different forms of ego, even from the established psychology view-point, can be very useful in helping to have more ease with the seemingly monkey mind and the different characters it forms, that are often contradictory to each other.
While we could also delve into the subject of telepathy and the tendency of us humans to pick up on thoughts and emotions in the human collective consciousness that aren’t ours, the subject of soul versus cellular memory can be useful to at least understand that which does come from ourselves.
Soul Memory
The meaning of “soul” does vary a bit depending on where you read about it. The way I prefer to view it, is simply that part of you, that identity, that you take with you from life to life. Your “higher Self” you could also call it from another perspective.
That essence you take with you of course, also includes the memories of other lives you’ve lived. Those memories shape your perspectives and beliefs and so can have a big impact on how you behave in future lives, including the choice of what life you decided to have this time around too.
If you have had many lives in societies that are kind, loving, supportive, peaceful, don’t use money etc then you may have beliefs from a soul level that make you to some extent incompatible with this reality you are in, or so you may feel. Whereas if you’ve had many lives here and are more used to it then you might feel more comfortable here. More on that later.
Cellular Memory
Cellular simply means of the cell. The human body is made up of trillions of cells functioning together to form the different organs that make up the physical body.
Those that have been following me for some time may know that I have degrees in biochemistry and osteopathy. While I now view a lot of what I was taught to be false, those degrees still gave me a good understanding of what those “in power” wish us to believe rather versus true science.
Genetics is a very good example of a controlled science. Lots of what is taught is very true but there are gateways that I find are blocked in this subject to truly understanding what genes are, and especially how genes can be switched on (or off) and even re-written.
One of the things I didn’t understand for a long time, was why “fringe” scientists and alternative communities were talking about genes being memory. It certainly wasn’t taught that way in my biochemistry degree where we went very deep into the subject!
But genes are memory! It is the physical representation of memory. I also believe that memory is held in cells outside of genetics but I won’t complicate things too much here…
To understand why, it took me a long time, a lot of study and contemplation – years in fact. Basically there are studies out there and a lot of discussions and theories from different scientists about how changing the way you behave, especially for a prolonged period, actually makes certain genes switch on or off and can even re-write the genes themselves! The theories on how the formally called “junk DNA” actually are dormant genes and also can be used to alter other genes was particularly fascinating.
It would take a long time and go beyond the scope of this article to explain this genetic memory deeply in biochemical terms but essentially if your genes are different based on how you think, feel and behave on an unconscious, not just conscious level then you can also trace back through families’ ancestries to how they behaved and the likely experiences they would have had that formed such behaviours and beliefs.
i.e. genes and the cells that they are in are a kind of memory – what I call “cellular memory”
If you’ve ever wondered why families often look similar and behave in similar ways, the genes have a big influence on that. However you are not entirely the same and often can be very different to your parents. The main reasons you are different are due to external influences (such as different diets, different life experiences, different teachings, different stresses in life etc), that fact that you only take half of the genes from one parent and half from the other and…. your different SOUL MEMORY!
Dissociative Identity Disorders
If you are still not convinced that genes can be changed or at least switched on and off quickly, you might want to look into dissociative identity disorders, previously known as multiple personality disorders. This is where one person is seen to have two or more different personalities that come out at different times, with varying degrees of awareness of each other.
They can be so different that one personality can drive a car but another cannot. One may be a Muslim and another a Christian and yet another an atheist. One may like chocolate and another doesn’t etc
This is reflected in gene switching too, which is the reason I am writing about this here. There are cases where one personality has type-1 diabetes where they need to inject insulin and the other personality does not!
Considering that type-1 diabetes is considered congenital, how can the genetic expression of the body change so quickly when a new personality comes into the body?! Because consciousness can change genetics and each personality is like a different consciousness with a different memory – and genes to and reflect that different memory.
I hope this example really highlights what I am saying about cellular memory here.
Memory can also be considered programming
Your memories affect your beliefs because of the perspectives you have of them. This means that memories are a bit like a computer program in that you will function differently based on the beliefs you have.
So changing your cellular or soul memories, or at least your perspective of them, has a huge impact on the way we behave, much like a computer functions differently depending on the program.
Trauma, experiences and the beliefs formed from them get passed down through cellular memory
While your soul memory is specific to you and the different lives you’ve lived (yes there’s more to that statement but I’m trying to keep it simple here!), your cellular memory, starts off at least, based on what your parents did, your grandparents did on so on.
If your great-grandmother went through a traumatic experience with a man for example, she may have come to the conclusion and thus belief that men are bad. If that is strong enough of an experience to impact the sub/unconsciousness and thus change the DNA, then any off-spring she may have after that, will have that belief passed onto them.
If those children of hers don’t challenge that belief, have supportive/nice experiences from men etc then that cellular memory gets passed along yet again to the next generation, meaning that they too may also on some level believe men are bad.
This will continue to get passed along until a family member faces that belief and questions whether it is true or not and/or experiences good things from men to an extent that the cellular memory gets rewritten.
The schizophrenic human life
Let’s loop back to what I mentioned at the start – life as a human seeming schizophrenic.
Ignoring that fact that humans are psychic and pick up on others all the time without realising, the main reason many feel like they are two people in one that are often at odds with each other is simply because your beliefs on a soul level can be very different to your beliefs on a cellular level.
Some people on the awakening path may even side with one side of themselves to such an extent that they think that the other side is some sort of entity possession. While real possessions can happen, the vast majority of the time with the people I come across, it is simply a case of the negative side of the ego trying to separate you into different parts and using the cellular versus soul memory differences as leverage.
If you instead see that there is bound to be friction between the soul and physical body if you’ve led very different lives in the past compared to your current life, then you can have more ease with yourself.
It may also help to understand that physical genes may be changed over time – a reflection of that fact that you can change your sub and even un-consciousness.
Cellular and soul memory can be changed!
While in main-stream genetics we are taught that genes only change due to mutations, such as from chemical or physical stresses or just “chance”, that is not true. Genes can be switched on or off due to how you think, feel and act – this is part of what’s called “epigenetics”. If you do this for a prolonged period, then you can even start to re-write them and literally become a different person as a result.
How do you know that you’ve changed your genetics? You will BE different and the change will be most noticeable in your habits. I’m not just talking about physical habits here. Your mental and emotional habits too.
For example, if you habitually procrastinate and want to change that behaviour. If you make efforts to notice when you start to procrastinate and instead try to accomplish what you would normally avoid, gradually over time it gets easier to make a productive choices.
If you keep working on this it becomes easier and easier to be productive rather than procrastinate. Eventually if done for a long enough period it becomes a new habit to not procrastinate, at which point it requires no effort to steer yourself away from excuses. i.e. you are no longer a procrastinator and you know that you’ve changed your genetic programming or sub/unconsciousness.
This works exactly the same for soul memory too – your blueprint in the ether from which your physical body is a reflection of will shift in vibration to fit the new behaviour pattern.
In this way you can change both the cellular and/or soul programming to suit who you wish to be. Done for long enough, there will obviously be less friction and more ease within yourself.
I hope that this is useful for those of you that feel uncomfortable in their lives 🙂
