Physical forms, though in one instance Durga was a statue but came to life and became life-like (flesh and blood). Before this all started I did see her as a statue too.
I know I was seeing my previous lives because the day before I did an ardaas to God asking if he could bless me with some sort of vision about it, to help me make sense of some things happening in my life and why I'm like how I am. During the dream, I transitioned from various lives and then finally to mine. I obviously have no proof but when I was younger a Mahapurkh had told my father about who was I was in my past life, it all seemed to correlate fine so I went with it.
I can reveal some details yeah, nothing too exciting though. I had a really bland life, In one life I was a man with a beautiful wife. I loved her dearly, we lived together in a huge place. Sadly My wife didn't feel the same way as me, she started having an affair with my brother, as a result they conspired to steal all my wealth and kill me. One day when it was just us at home, they lead me into a room. While my wife and I were talking, my brother came up behind me and stabbed me in the back. At this point, I felt extreme pain where I was stabbed and woke up sweating. This explains a-lot about why I want to remain a celibate and not get married as well, why I'm not trusting of many people. Before this life (the lordly one), I was a horse. In another, I was a woman, was a man once Again. Honestly, there were a few more but they are really embarrassing.
Thank you so much for the advice. That would explain why recently they seem to have desisted. I discussed them with my mother and my friend in depth.
