Marvelous mutation produces male-female conjoined twins.

Excerpt

==FOREWORD == by Linda R. Backman, Ed.D.

The prologue to Larry W. Bryant’s first novella, Conjoined, spells out

key components of core learning absolutely necessary for each of us to

envelop with our hearts and minds.  It is high time we KNEW, rather

than suspected, that we arrive into incarnation at the moment of

birth’s first breath, holding a contract in our “hands” containing

various elements of prenatal choice. The souls who are our family

members, our type of body, and physical/mental capability are among

the available choices we make in concert with the loving spiritual

guidance we receive before arriving into a new lifetime.

For seventeen years it has been my blessing to guide soul regression

clients into past lives, as well as into the time between our lives,

when we are pure, pristine spirit energy.  The light of core truth

shines brightly for innumerable clients, as they realize that each

lifetime, or incarnation, is preplanned.  Once our life begins, free

will perpetually exists for us to alter any aspect of our pre-birth

contract.  In conference with our spiritual team of guides and

teachers, our life trajectory is developed with intention, prior to

opening our eyes on this planet.

No incarnation is purposeless.  Quite the contrary.   As we travel our

journey toward higher wisdom, soul development is ongoing, gaining

depth, breadth, and height with each lifetime. We progress as an

individual soul entity, along with contributing to the greater whole

of the new humanity.

Rex and Roxanne are a shining example of the yin and yang of soul

balance.  The outer circle, representing the container of yin and

yang, is the whole of soul interrelationship.  Within the circle are

two fish-like representations of equal halves.   A small portion, or

dot, of the complementary energy of the partner lies inside each fish.

What is the purpose of such intentional balance of yin and yang?

The dance of two separate, yet uncommonly familiar, souls has been

brought to light in thousands of unprompted soul regression cases,

explaining that the vast majority of us have shared more lifetimes

with one other soul.  Such is the yin and yang of soul relatedness

with your partner soul.  Life contracts with your partner soul may

lead to wondrous, fulfillment by interacting and supporting one

another.  On the other hand, the script of each life may intend for

partner souls to “push each other’s buttons,” in order to enhance the

advancement of one or both souls.

Apparently, Rex and Roxy created a complex pre-birth agreement, in

defiance of societal norms, to provide potential learning to those

with whom they would come into contact demonstrating that

interrelationship can, and often does, serve equally as the partners

carry out simultaneous roles of both puppeteer and puppet.

Bryant’s hypothetical twins shed light on a crucial awareness I

strongly believe all of us must gain.  It would appear on the surface

that one twin is male, while the other’s body characteristics are

female.  Not so, indicates the lab tests.  These two infants, as is

the case with all Siamese twins, are medically diagnosed as identical,

though androgynous (at least superficially).  Can we, as a culture,

reach the point where we stop viewing people with only our eyes, not

considering people at their core, who make life choices that suit the

individual, and not the collective bias?

If the masses of humanity were to refrain from judgment based on

instant “eye level” assumptions, our world’s culture would operate

from the perspective of oneness rather than separation.  How quickly

we label people and their life decisions as a monstrosity.

When someone, or something, in society appears different than would be generally expected, often the response is to step into fear and

discrimination.  I find it sad that many have yet to realize that our

learning and progression as a soul are perfectly guided from a higher

level.  We summon and invite each element and experience in our daily

existence for the benefit of our personal learning and ongoing soul

development, as well as the advancement of humanity.

What are the key components and expansion of your spiritual

perspective that you, as the reader, can gain from Rex, Roxy, and

their mother’s story?  Within a simple foreword, I haven’t the

latitude to comment on each strand of Larry Bryant’s tapestry

intricately crafted as he calls us forward to remove our blinders and

step firmly into knowing we arrive in body with purpose.

Is it so bizarre to consider that we plan each incarnation with the

possibility that human suffering can, and generally does, result in a

contribution to spiritual evolution?  Pre-birth Rex and Roxy opted for

a joint and purposeful venture, attached at the abdomen.  Some souls

choose a different version of an intentional joint venture by marrying

in their twenties; experiencing the depth of relationship, that many

never know, for 25 years; with the end result of the husband’s death

at age fifty, leading to ongoing telepathic communication between

spouses until the demise of the wife.  Were you to spend time in my

office as a fly on the wall, you’d come to know this type of spousal

beauty.

Past life remnants are repeatedly reflected in our life today as

musical skill, tightly knit relationships, even body type and facial

appearance.  Without the awareness of how to label such past

incarnation “bleed through,” we will skip right over the bright light

of soul memory that points us in the direction of knowing and mapping

all that we are.  From one reincarnation experience to the next, our

spiritual DNA is being imprinted with impressions of:  what role(s)

did I play in each life?; with whom did I play these roles?; did I die

young?;  did my spouse or mother die young?;  and a myriad of other

potent experiences.

At every turn of the page, Conjoined is truly a beauty, as it offers

the reader the opportunity to contemplate, face, and assess whether

our knee-jerk, programmed societal responses may be judgmental,

demonstrating a lack of awareness of our core soul-level choices that

guide us with intent and purpose toward higher learning.  I invite you

to enjoy and examine Larry Bryant’s novella as open-mindedly as

possible.
