It sounds to me like your grandson is wise beyond his years. Your thoughts about 'an old soul' appear very reasonable. I'm unsure of your beliefs, yet this experience might prompt you to think differently about reincarnation.
Your story prompts me to think about Tibetan history and culture. Its fascinating to realize that from a very young age, the current Dalai Lama was recognized as a previous Lama. What is even more astrounding to me is that his mother gave birth to a number of incarnate lamas which is almost unheard of for a single woman in that civilization. How people recognize previous souls is a challenge for Westerners to comprehend. Its seems like a myth but its certainly another person's reality. We aren't meant to understand everything. To open our eyes to new possibilities can be meaningful. |
