1. How did this music from the video make you feel?

2. Did you feel strong emotions?

3. Did it make you feel like crying?

4. Did the music make you feel combative or ready for a fight?

5. Did this music from the video give you mental flashes of other lives you lived and this song was being played?

Now let me explain a bit about what this song means to me. I am one of those descended from the ancient Celts. I felt very strong emotions when I first heard this music in this lifetime so I played it several more times until the strong emotions and mental flashes subsided and I could focus my mind.

I have studied mind science, and martial science for decades and thought I knew myself fairly well. I even had been past life regressed to some of my more recent past lives. In the last few my soul has incarnated in the United States. I had not been past life regressed further then the 17th century in Ireland until I heard this song played.

This song's modern name is; "Scotland the Brave" but it is perhaps 500-600 years old. No one really knows the origin of this song from what I can gather on the internet.

The memories that it invoked in me were of lives in ancient Scotland. This song was played by a pipe and drum core that would travel the highlands and along the way gather troops from the able bodies men of the villages into a single fighting force. It was a song that stirred the blood and prepared the Scots for battle.

It was also the last song that I heard in at least 8 lifetimes that I regressed through. Some of these lives kind of blur together as they were very similar and all very short. The song for me invokes feelings of pain and suffering and dying and separation from loved ones. It makes my blood boil and my hands shake a bit. I had to discover why this feeling was so strong so I did a self hypnosis and regressed into the pain and grief to find its source.

I remembered the life of a soldier in the Scottish army battling the English. I was not some famous general or leader of men. I was just a grunt as in my other past lives. I was standing on the battlefield after the battle, blood soaked, and muscles burning.

I remember the stench of entrails filling my nose and I turned away from a body of a brother and went to my knees and heaved until I could heave no more on the blood soaked ground.

While I was there on my knees shaking with revulsion, and exhausted from the battle my past lives of dying on battlefields just like this one and that song connecting them all in my mind came flashing like a wave over me. It was the last song I had heard so many times in so many lifetimes.

I prayed to God right then that I would never have to endure this horror again in another life. Apparently my prayers were answered for a time as I did not suffer such a fate again for many more lifetimes that I could recall. That was until my soul was reborn in America. In those incarnations I did suffer war again during the Civil War on the side of the confederacy and one other lifetime when I incarnated as a Native American and suffered through the massacre of my tribe at the hands of the Union Army.

Still after all of the centuries have passed my soul is profoundly affected by this song. It causes profound memory of those ancient times to come forth and also makes clear my connection to the ancient Celts.

Now you have read my short story. Tell us if you have a story connected to this song.

Edited to put a better rendition of the song up.

Long line of descendants from Scotland. Hell my dad had black hair and blue eyes til the day he died. My forefathers as far back as I could trace have all been soldiers except me. I chose not too, though it was a close thing. I've traced my ancestors as soldiers in every war in the US back to the Revolutionary War.
