If you're not sure what the prison planet theory is, its the theory that this physical reality is not a school of learning like a lot of new age stuff teaches, and is actually a prison. Much like public school in real life.

Near Death Experiences and children who can remember their past lives have been found to have some commonalities with themselves and each other. Theres also commonalities with a lot of different religions, too.

In general when you die you find yourself in your "astral" body floating around. You can think more clearly, remember better, have telepathy, teleportation, can see through the eyes as if you were another animal, person (entity). It's basically like a lucid dream. Then you get sucked through a tunnel, and then enter "heaven". There its a world of pure bliss with all of your dead relatives.

In heaven, there are these "light beings" or "angels" that take you through a life review and show you all of your choices and how your choices affected others, through their eyes. How they felt, what they thought. You basically re live your life and the lives of anyone you ever had contact with. The light beings then either convince you to go back to your body or convince you to plan your next incarnation with them in order to improve yourself, correct your choices, that sort of thing. Like the person you bullied is going to be your best friend in the next life sort of stuff. Righting "wrongs".
The Prison Planet theory is basically the thought that these light beings are the prison wardens that will show you anything or anyone to convince you to reincarnate into this physical reality. Much like we are learning in this reality, they are "evil" pretending to be good, but on the highest order imaginable.

Why they do this only has a few theories, the main one being that they feed off of your energy. In my opinion that doesn't really make sense because the same people that talk about prison planet theory also talk about how we're infinitely powerful beings being tricked into thinking we're not infinitely powerful. There wouldn't really be a reason to need to feed off of us if they are infinitely powerful as well, you know? Well, other than something like "they like the taste".

I wonder if this really is a school, but the test is actually to not trust those light beings because you have no idea who or what they are, really.

One big point on how the "reality is a school of learning" doesn't make sense is that in a school, you remember your previous classes and schools and different years and they all build up upon each other. I don't remember my previous school, class, or anything. Only the now.

So basically just the title. What do you guys think of the prison planet theory?
