For the most part one's "previous activities" are revealed by one's karma in this life for; "one cannot alter one's fate but one may determine one's own destiny"*..what this means is that once (through meditative observation), one has developed the sensitivity to determine one's needs rather than slavishly obeying one's "wants".. navigating the "other" realm becomes possible....yes there are occasions (but these vary in frequency, type and duration from individual to individual), when previous lives inform the current one but they are rare...navigating the other realm always seems harder than simply choosing "the lowest common denominator" (esp. at first), but it does get easier and one becomes adept at recognising the sign-posts, it is in this way that the enlightened soul builds up a picture of its past... *The "modern" tendency is to confuse the two terms but this is a desperate reductionism..
