Hour 3: Robert Schwartz
Robert Schwartz, author of Your Soul’s Plan: Discovering the Real Meaning of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born joins Amerika Now during the final hour of the show.
“On February 25, 1969, Christina, a twenty-year-old administrative assistant in the Department of Political Science at Pomona College in Claremont, California, went to the department’s basement mailbox to pick up her employer’s mail. As she touched a package in the mailbox a bomb detonated, hurling her across the room. Dust and soot filled the air; six-foot splinters of wood shot like arrows into the cement wall behind her. Flames from the explosion scorched Christina’s face, leaving her temporarily blind. The blast severed two fingers from her right hand and ruptured both eardrums.
Christina planned this experience before she was born. And she knows why.”
Many times, when something “bad” happens, it may appear to be meaningless suffering. But what if your most difficult experiences are actually rich with hidden purpose–purpose you yourself planned before you were born? Could it be that you chose your life’s circumstances, relationships, and events? And what can you learn from your experiences and challenges in life? How does the soul create a life blueprint?
Robert Schwartz says that “It takes a great deal of courage to live the plans you made before you were born. My desire, my most fervent wish, is that you recognize the tremendous courage you show in every moment of every day when, with each breath, you reaffirm your decision to embrace and learn from your own challenges. Within that recognition, you will find your soul.”
In a personal session with a medium in 2003, Robert was astonished to speak with non-physical beings who knew everything about him–not just what he had done in life, but also what he had thought and felt. They told him that he had planned many of his most difficult experiences before he was born. Realizing that a knowledge of pre-birth planning would bring great healing to people and allow them to understand the deeper purpose of their life challenges, Robert devoted the next three years to studying the pre-birth plans of dozens of individuals. The extraordinary insights that emerged speak to our heartfelt, universal yearning to know…why.
