Fascinating Slavic Mythology Offers Surprising Insight Into The Mystery Of Reincarnation
Ellen Lloyd – MessageToEagle.com - Although many people in the Western world believe in reincarnation, it is still a concept we mainly associate with the teachings of the Far East. However, the subject of reincarnation can also be found in mythology and suggests that our ancestors knew of the concept before us.
Slavic mythology offers surprising insight into what happens when we depart from this world.
We are currently living in the World of Yav
In our previous article, we discussed the secrets worlds of Prav, Nav and Yav and how ancient Slavic wisdom confirms the multiverse theory.
According to ancient Slavic myths and legends, we live in a world of Yav. Our reality is surrounded by several worlds that are invisible to our senses. There are times when we can actually catch a glimpse of a parallel world, but it happens only occasionally and under special circumstances.
We can be re-born on another “Earth”
Slavic mythology teaches us that before we can move from our world to the worlds of Prav and Nav, that are higher dimensions that are certain tasks we must first accomplish successfully. The world of Yav is 1st grade, and when we die, we are transferred to the 2nd grade - the world of Legs. However, if we fail to complete the “program” during our time in the world of Yav, then we are re-born as many times as necessary to complete the program. Now, here comes the truly interesting part. We can be re-born on another “earth” as there are many worlds in the world of Yav. So, this doesn’t mean we will necessarily end up on planet Earth.
The reincarnation process in Slavic mythology can be compared to how it feels going to school. According to Slavic folklore, some individuals are more troublesome than other students. Unfortunately, all they do is keep preventing others from learning by constantly causing problems.
Goddess Makosh
When these people fail the “educational” program here on the world of Yav then they are sent to a special school called “Peklo”. The word means in English “hell”.
We all have our instructors whose task is to help and guide us
Some instructors are responsible for the education of individuals who reside in the world of Yav. Each of these teachers is a “Bog Protector” and can help answer questions.
The Goddess Makosh is responsible for the educational plan of each individual. Together with her daughters Dolya (Fate) and Nedolya (Doom), Makosh spins the thread of destiny for each individual. Dmitriy Kushnir writes in his book The Slavic Way that “this education plan is different for each individual and has mandatory exams which cannot be avoided. It also has a lesson plan that can be chosen by that individual and adjusted if need be.
Each individual in the World of Yav’ has a mentor from a 2nd grade (the world of Legs), and that is his Guardian Leg (Guardian Angel in Christianity).
Other Bogi are simply teachers in various subjects. At the end of this life, when a person dies, he has to complete an exit exam in front of the panel of his teachers (Bogi). Our Ancestors referred to this exit exam as the triple-trial: the trial by Conscience, the trial by Ancestors, and the trial by Bogi. If the exam is successfully completed, and the person has followed his destiny in life, he is allowed to ascend to the next world of Legs.”
In this life in Yav’, some individuals can travel to other worlds, but only Death permanently separates one from his physical body.
The reincarnation concept as presented in Slavic folklore is quite fascinating. The thought behind our purpose in this world reminds us of an Aboriginal proverb that says: “We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home. "
