Skills disminishing over lives?

Okay so I've always been bad at Math and I'm currently in a remedial math class and I use a tutor, so I made a joke with my tutor that I must have been to do math in a past life and he just chuckled of course. But it got me thinking. Is it possible a skill you held in a past life (perhaps it was at an advanced level) just lessen over a long period of lives? Or vice versa, you can become better at a skill as your lives continue?

Hey AER,

I believe you can become MORE skilled at something from a past life, but less skilled? Not possible. In all reference books on reincarnation the idea is that as we have more and more lives we become smarter and smarter. Perhaps the only reason for a decline in your math skills is because of the incline in technology and the easy way of getting answers, where as in the past, your mind would have been forced to think and worked much harder.

If you get smarter and more skilled than how do you explain disabled people who have limitations but may have had other lives?

PRIMAL HERE... AND I TEND TO THINK ALOT..I NEED TO KEEP MY MIND BUSY.... LATELY IVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT REINCARNATION.. CONNECTIONS WE HAVE TO PAST LIVES AND SUCH... AND HERE ARE SOME OF MY THOUGHTS... IVE NOT READ ANYTHING ON REINCARNATION NOR HAVE REALLY GAVE IT MUCH THOUGH AS IT WAS A TABOO TOPIC IN THE HOUSE I GREW UP IN.. SO ANYWAYS

NOW IM BASING SOME OF THESE THOUGHTS IN WHAT I OBSERVE IN THE PRESENT.. I COULD BE WRONG IN MY THINKING.. BUT THE POSSIBILITY IS THERE.
A.E.R... YOU MENTIONED PERHAPS ABOUT LOSING A SKILL OR BECOMING LESS SKILLED... HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON THAT:

NOW..ITS TRUE SOME DISABLED PEOPLE HAVE LIMITATIONS... BUT IT DOESNT MEAN THE SKILL IS NOT THERE.. ITS JUST THAT THEY CAN NOT EXPRESS THAT SKILL AS A RESULT OF THEIR LIMITATION (WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE).. COULD BE MENTAL.. COULD BE PHYSICAL.

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON DIMINISHING SKILLS THROUGHOUT LIVES. AGAIN IM BASING IT SOLELY WHAT I OBSERVE IN THE HERE AND NOW:

HAVING PAST LIVES ALMOST ALWAYS BRING ABOUT DIFFERENT TIMES.. DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES.. DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES.. ALL OF WHICH WOULD HAVE A DIRCT LINK TO WHAT SKILLS ARE USED AND HONED AND WHICH ONES WOULD PERHAPS FADE AWAY ..JUST AS TALENTS (SKILLS) WE HAVE IN THIS LIFE ,IF NOT USED BECOME RUSTY WITH TIME. LET ME GIVE SOME EXAMPLES :

I PLAYED VIOLIN FOR 8 YEARS.. I WAS FAIRLY GOOD.. THOUGH BECAUSE OF EVENTS IN MY LIFE I HAVE NOT PLAYED IN 13 YEARS.. IF I WERE TO PICK UP THE VIOLIN NOW I WOULD BE VERY VERY RUSTY.. THE BASICS ARE STILL THERE BUT I WOULD NOT BE PLAYING IN THE PHILDELPHIA HARMONIC BY ANY MEANS....

SAME GOES FOR PAST LIVES... SAY IN A PREVOUS LIFE YOU WERE A SKILLED MATHEMATICIAN.. THE NEXT LIVE .. A MEMBER OF A INDEGENOUS TRIBE DEEP IN THE SOUTH AMERICAN JUNGLE... NOT MUCH USE FOR ADVANCED MATH SKILLS THERE.. SO IN NOT USING THE SKILL IN THAT LIFE IT WOULD IN SOME WAY DIMINISH.. BUT NOT DISAPPEAR.

BUT IN THE GRANDER SCHEME OF THINGS WITH THE COMBINATION OF ALL LIFE LESSONS.. THERE WOULD BE A CONSTANT GROWING AND LEARNING.. BUT JUST IN DIFFERENT AREAS... SO IN A SENSE WE ARE BECOMING SMARTER WITH EACH PASSING LIFE.

JUST SOME THOUGHTS OF MINE.. FEEL FREE TO COMMENT
