memories and retrievals

All the memories of this life of mine are stacked in my mind somewhere so that they may be retrieved when needed. When not needed also they appear, often unwelcome, in a stream of thought. Most of them may have been modified altered or distorted. But they are there.
Sometimes memories not of this life also come up either as a dream or in a day-dream. But these are not recognized as real memories because they cannot be connected to the known events of the present life. They are often mixed up images newly created into a whole by imagination, giving it a semblance of real life. They appear to be new and different from known events. They need not be memories from another life. Yet there are some vivid images and events that are entirely different and do not satisfy any explanation that they are mind’s play. They could be some memory from unknown sources.
May be they are of a previous life. If not they may be the built in memories passed on to you through parents, grand-parents, and all the other ancestors right from monkey downwards! They may be from primordial memories of the history of Man come through the genes.
Apart from all these memories available as in the storage devices and BIOS of the computers, there could also be memories stored in remote ‘servers’ outside the world in outer space which can be accessed if properly connected. And the memories could be forward as well as backward in time!
If only we could find the mechanism of the retrieval system, we might have been perhaps able to know all the past and future lives right now, in this life!
