Mostly it is a reflection of our previous actions. (Karma)- What goes around comes around. Most of our situations are karma (or reactions from our previous actions) coming from our previous live. That is why a child is born blind or sick or healthy or in a poor or wealthy family. All due to the past life. God is fair and everyone will get what is due to them good or bad. Though one can mitigate all of ones karma by practicing Bhakti yoga. (Devotional service to the Lord) This is not a practice of bending or breathing exercises it is offering all of ones thoughts, words and actions in service to God (also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, Rama, etc.) this is the most ancient and eternal practice and is Universal and Transcendental to all material activities.What every you do do it for God. Your talents, your cooking, your cleaning, your gardening, what every. Just in your mind be God Conscious. (Krishna Conscious) In this way you will purify all karma and realize your eternal self. Bhakti Yoga begins with the Chanting of the names of God and especially the Maha Mantra Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. For info go to harekrishnatemple.com read Bhagavad Gita as it is BY Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada.. Tells the process. Also if interested write me for a link on all info on the mantra. I am so Glad I know the meaning of life and how to change my karmic reactions.

No. Otherwise, you would be prepared for every situation. The words, it took me by surprise, or I wasn't ready for that, or any phrase that expresses your confusion, misunderstanding, incomprehension, etc, of a situation would be obsolete in your language.
We may encounter similar situations, even some that appear identical, to previous thought, but the fact that they are in a moment of time that did not exist when the thought was conceived makes them different.
Even if you believe in reincarnation, they cannot be the same. Reincarnation, defined as "A reappearance or revitalization in another form; a new embodiment." implies that it is a new situation...not the continuation of an old one...again, no, for the reincarnation itself IS a new situation.

Only if we compare the new situation to some prior thought or situation.
This is a choice that we make. We could be choosing to see the new situation for what it really is. Not just an imaginary image of it created by looking at it through the darkened glass of some previous terror.

To know the answer w should , first , know what is Destiny and what is a thought. Thought is not outside of us Destiny is . In fact we do not know where it is and how it acts. For this unknown entity we have simply given a name , Destiny. That is all. If it was possible at all for us to initiate change in our destiny we could consider changing our thoughts accordingly . We can compulsorily think of something else and delve on that thought . If anything , the combined action of our mind , thought, body results in a certain action. Such an action takes us towards our intended goal. If we drift away from that intended goal and land up somewhere we tend to blame this on some thing . That something is Destiny .

peace be upon you
i don't know why i always find a difficulty in your questions .
Sometimes i be in a situation and feel that it happened to me before or i was in this place or know this person but don't know when , where ,or how?
Sometimes i think , if this happen to me ,how i will deal in it?
Our previous thoughts is our knowledge and according to it , we deal with the situations which we face.

Is every situation really current?
What makes us think that time follows a continuous line?

i would say no, though some situations may be, if we have desired a certain thing, or if our thoughts lead us to act in a way that brings the situation about

We are what we eat. Oh wait, um, you can't always get what you want. But you will find, if you try, you get what you need. Also, take what you need and leave the rest behind. I hate myself.

If you believe in reincarnation, you can say yes to your own question. Your question is just deeper.
