As Linda stated in Chapter Nine, reverse polarity holds the Key to physical immortality. Progeria is the example she gives. If young children can grow old very quickly, then the reverse MUST also be true. It can be no other way. So reverse spirals and cellular regeneration are all part of nature. It's built into our DNA, just waiting to be awakened. Confirming this, science has found a species of seagull that does not age! They have tagged them and have been examining the same birds for many, many decades! Each year, one or two don't return (due to predators or accidents), but the birds do not age (after maturing, of course). Some species of fish are also exempt from aging. So, immortality actually exists in nature as a natural phenomenon! Apparently, due to random selection, some creatures have no death genes. Humans do have death genes (M1 and M2 respectively), but due to Higher Consciousness (which separates us from a blade of grass or other such lifeforms), we can choose to turn off our death genes. In the lab, scientists are able to modify the M1 and M2 genes within individual cells and overcome the Hayflick Limit (the number of times a cell can reproduce), and they can make a cell grow old and then reverse in age. All of this is without Consciousness, of course. How much more can we do WITH Consciousness, by simply believing and Ordaining to the Angel of our Higher S-elves?

I take the same view as Linda. She viewed reincarnation and the discarding of "old" bodies as a waste. Why not stay in the current body and pay your Karma with full memory intact (and not having to relearn everything through birth amnesia)? Makes sense to me! Of course, there is nothing wrong with choosing to die. But Linda wanted us all to realize that it's a choice, whether we are consciously aware of it or not.

Now, for those that want to expand on Linda's concepts of immortality a bit, our very own Dan Hall is almost finished with his book, You Don't Have To Die, which should be available in book stores (and online at Amazon and Barnes and Noble) early next year. Ever since reading Star Signs, I have been wishing for a whole book on immortality, since the concept does open up a whole lot of new expansions into societal implications of every sort.

This site has several Immortals, so if you are thinking about becoming immortal, you have come to the right place. After all, Linda wrote the book on it! And, of course, if immortality is not your thing this time around on the carousel, that is okay, too. There are no wrong decisions. Immortality is a lonely road to walk, but it is a frequently rewarding one. We are often chastised for our beliefs in immortality, but we would never chastise those that choose to die. With immortality comes a greater responsibility to do what is right. Can evil Immortals exist? By reverse polarity, yes, but an accident or violent act would eventually do them in (even though they may not age). That brings Spiritual Protection into the mix, which I will get into a bit more later. I will end with a quote from Linda in Star Signs: "I am completely in control of the fate of my physical body. Nothing can harm me without my consent. And I do not choose to give my consent. I choose to live." Quite!

You are also correct in that choosing Immortality can be a lonely road to walk, but a worthwhile one.
BUT, the times they are a'changing, so maybe in the next 100 years or so it will be more common and people won't think you are strange.

I am an immortal, but it might not be someone else's choice.

I hope that I can become disciplined enough to carry it through. I would love nothing more then to keep this body and pay my Karmic dept with full memory intact and not have to relearn everything through birth amnesia.

My intentions are to keep going .....by the grace of my higher self

I also think it would be very hard to go it alone...

So...

If it's not immortality, what do you call a soul that did let his flesh die but has balanced all his/her Karma, not needing to be *re-born* into the flesh again?

The dictionary defines immortal as *not subject to death* ... Then, our Soul already is *immortal*, no?

Is God/dess *immortal* in the sense that say YIVY, or Randall is, always to walk this earth in the same *body*? If not, what?

Is it for eternity?

Yes... that is what I imagined would be most *good* ... to move from body to Spirit at will... like, stopping by Earth for - short visits - until it IS Heaven on Earth

Nothing grieves me more *now* than to see what mortals do to our Mother Earth - and to each other ...

"...forgive them Father and Mother, for they kNow not what they do..."

Gooberz... there are no *mortal* words to describe it Randall, but when I am reading it... it's like... well... like I go into another *world* somehow, and on every page there is a part of my own story somehow (but not), does that make sense???

As I was "channel-surfing today I caught a portion of a talk show and they were talking about women with an "aging" disease. I thought they were talking about progeria but it turns out there is another "aging" disease called "Turners Syndrome" and this woman on the show was 26 and looked about 8.

I have never heard of this but I immediately thought of Linda and this is yet another example of how things aren't what they seem.

There's just no way to know how old someone is by how they look.

I'm an optimistic skeptic about most things but I have long since learned that if Linda wrote about it, you can count on it.

It's like the universe keeps throwing little hints at us.

Princess..I think I see what you are asking. Somewhere along the line as an immortal I think the body will change and alter. It will still be you in a body, but a evolved one. Something we can't yet imagine.

It will take a long time, but it will change. I think we get to a point where the body is mostly light and as such will be altered or moved at will. That is how we will travel eventually. The step before that will be the ability to send our astral body at will. Then create doubles to go where we want..then the 'light' change.

In five or six thousand years it won't be as we know it now..it will be transformed. At least that is what I think It could take longer or shorter, but it will change. The Uni-verse was created on the 'change' principle.
