Finding proof of reincarnation is surprisingly easy: there are thousands of documented and well-researched cases around the world, collected by scientists over the past century, that prove the reality of past lives and reincarnation.

There is evidence that at least some, and perhaps all people, already existed in another body and lived a different life.

When anomalous "memories" of events appear, i.e. those who were not in the present life who experience them tend to believe that these memories come from their own previous lives.

However, the memories flashing in the mind may not be memories. past life. Instead, they appear to be "cases classified as reincarnation". The latter are widespread.

Stories suggesting the possibility of reincarnation are unlimited, both geographically and culturally: they can be found in all corners of the planet and among people of all cultures.

Of course, there are more memories from past lives than from the present, because there were a great many past lives.

For reincarnation, which actually took place, the consciousness of someone else's personality must enter the body of a certain subject. In esoteric literature this is known as the transmigration of the spirit or soul.

Usually such a process takes place in the womb, perhaps already at the moment of conception or shortly thereafter, when rhythmic impulses begin what further develops in the heart of the embryo.

The spirit or soul of a person does not necessarily migrate to another person. Buddhist teachings, for example, tell us that the soul or spirit does not always incarnate on the earthly plane and in human form. See also: Our alien children: how to improve the process of communication with children.

She may not reincarnate at all, evolving into the spiritual realm, from where she either does not return or returns only to complete the task she was supposed to complete in her previous incarnation.

But what interests us here is the likelihood that reincarnation can actually occur. Can the consciousness that was the consciousness of some living person be reborn in the consciousness of another?

In his book The Power Within, British psychiatrist Alexander Cannon wrote that the evidence for this was too much to ignore: “For many years the theory of reincarnation was a nightmare for me, and I did my best to refute it, and even argued with my clients after the trance that they were talking nonsense.

But as the years went by, client after client told me the same story, despite their varying and shifting conscious beliefs. Over a thousand cases have been investigated until I agreed to admit that reincarnation exists."

Variants and variables in cases classified as reincarnation

Perhaps the main variable is the age of the person who has reincarnation memories. These are mostly children between the ages of two and six.

After the age of eight, as a rule, experiences fade and, with rare exceptions, disappear completely during adolescence.

The manner in which the reincarnated person died is another variable. Those who have experienced violent death seem to reincarnate more quickly than those who have died naturally.

Reincarnation stories tend to be clear and distinct in children, while in adults they tend to be fuzzy, vague premonitions and impressions.

The most common among them are deja vu: recognizing places that you encountered for the first time as familiar. Or the feeling of deja to the horse - meeting a person for the first time with the feeling that you have known him or her before also happens, but less often.

Are reincarnation stories true? Testimonies and evidence about places, people and events were verified with reference to eyewitness accounts and birth and residence certificates.

The stories often turn out to be corroborated witnesses as well as documents. Often even the smallest details correspond to real events, people and places. Vivid stories reincarnations are accompanied by an appropriate model of behavior.

The persistence of these patterns suggests that a reincarnated person manifests even when that person was from a different generation or a different sex.

A young child may show the values ​​and behavior of an older person of the opposite sex from a past life.

Pioneering research into recent reincarnation stories is the work of Ian Stevenson, a Canadian-American psychiatrist who headed the Division of Perceptual Research at the University of Virginia School of Medicine.

For more than four decades, Stevenson has researched the reincarnation experiences of thousands of children, both in the West and in the East.

Some memories of past lives, stated by children, were checked, events described by children were found in a person who lived earlier and whose death coincided in detail with the one reported by the child.

Sometimes the child has birthmarks associated with the death of the person with whom he or she was identified, perhaps some kind of markings or discoloration of the skin on the part of the body where the fatal bullet entered, or a malformation on the arm or on the foot, which lost the deceased.

In a groundbreaking article published in 1958, "Evidence for the Viability of Claimed Past Incarnation Memories," Stevenson analyzed the evidence for children's reincarnation stories, presenting seven cases.

These incidents of past life memories could be identified with events reported by children and often printed in obscure local magazines and articles.

Evidence of Reincarnation: First Hand Stories

Reincarnation Story 1: The Case of Ma Tin Ong Myo

Stevenson reports the case of a Burmese girl named Ma Tin Ong Myo. She claimed to be the reincarnation of a Japanese soldier who died during World War II.

In this case, there are huge cultural differences between the person reporting the experience and the person whose experience she is reporting.

In 1942 Burma was under Japanese occupation. The Allies (the Anti-Hitler Coalition, or the Allies of the Second World War - an association of states and peoples who fought in the Second World War of 1939-1945 against the countries of the Nazi bloc) regularly bombed Japanese supply lines, in particular, railways.

The village of Na Tul was no exception, being close to the important railway station near Puang. Regular attacks are a very hard life for the inhabitants, who tried their best to survive. Indeed, survival meant getting along with the Japanese occupiers.

For Do Ayi Tin (a villager who later became the mother of Ma Tin Ong Myo), this meant debating the relative merits of Burmese and Japanese cuisine with the stocky, regularly bare-chested cook of the Japanese army stationed in the village.

The war is over and life has returned to some semblance of normality. Early in 1953, Prior became pregnant with her fourth child.

The pregnancy was normal, with one exception: she had the same dream in which a Japanese chef, with whom she had long lost contact, pursued her and informed her that he was going to come and stay with her family.

On December 26, 1953, Do gave birth to a daughter and named her Ma Tin Ong Myo. She was a beautiful baby with one small quirk: she had a thumb-sized birthmark in her groin area.

As the child grew older, it was noted that she had a great fear of airplanes. Every time a plane flew over her head, she would start to worry and cry.

Her father, Wu Ayi Mong, was intrigued by this since the war had ended many years ago and the planes were now just transportation vehicles and not military weapons. Therefore, it was strange that Ma was afraid that the plane was dangerous and would shoot at her.

The child became more and more sullen, declaring that he wanted to "come home". Later, “home” became more specific: she wanted to return to Japan.

When asked why she suddenly wants this, she stated that she remembers that she was a Japanese soldier and their unit was based in Na-Tul. She remembered that she had been killed by machine-gun fire from an airplane, which was why she was so afraid of airplanes.

Ma Tin Ong Myo grew older and remembered more and more about her past life and former identity.

She told Ian Stevenson that her previous personality was from Northern Japan, there were five children in the family, the eldest was a boy who was a cook in the army. Gradually memories of past lives became more accurate.

She remembered that she (or rather, he, as a Japanese soldier) was near a pile of firewood stacked next to an acacia. She described herself as wearing shorts and no shirt. Allied aircraft spotted him and bombarded the area around him.

He ran for cover, but at that moment he was hit by a bullet in the groin and died instantly. She described the plane as having two tails.

It was later established that the Allies used a Lockheed P-38 Lightning aircraft in Burma, which has exactly this design, and this is an important proof of reincarnation, because the little girl Ma Tin Ong Myo could not have known anything about such an aircraft design.

As a teenager, Ma Tin Ong Myo displayed distinct masculine traits. She cut her hair short and refused to wear women's clothes.

Between 1972 and 1975 Ma Tin Ong Myo was interviewed three times about her reincarnation memories by Dr. Ian Stevenson. She explained that this Japanese soldier wanted to get married and had a regular girlfriend.

He did not like the hot climate of Burma, nor the spicy food of this country. He preferred heavily sweetened curries. When Ma Tin Ong Myo was younger, she liked to eat half-cooked fish, and this preference only went away after she once got a fish bone stuck in her throat.

Reincarnation Story 2: Tragedy in the Rice Fields

Stevenson describes the case of the reincarnation of a Sri Lankan girl. She remembered a past life in which she drowned in a flooded rice field. She said the bus passed her and splashed her with water before she died.

Subsequent research looking for evidence of this reincarnation found that a girl in a nearby village drowned after she left a narrow road to avoid a moving bus.

The road ran over flooded rice fields. Slipping, she lost her balance, fell into deep water and drowned.

The girl who recalls this event had an irrational fear of buses from a very young age; she also became hysterical if she was near deep water. She loved bread and sweet-tasting dishes.

It was unusual, because in her family such food was not accepted. On the other hand, the former personality was characterized by such preferences.

Reincarnation Story 3: The Case of Svanlata Mishra

Another typical case was investigated by Stevenson with Swanlata Mishra, who was born in a small village in Madhya Pradesh in 1948.

When she was three years old, she began spontaneously remembering a past life as a girl named Biya Pathak, who lived in another village over a hundred miles away.

She said that the house Biya lived in had four rooms and was painted in White color. She tried to sing songs she claimed she knew before, along with complex dances that were not known to her current family and friends.

Six years later, she got to know some of the people who were her friends in a past life. In this she was supported by her father, who began to write down what she said and looked for evidence of her past incarnation.

This story aroused interest outside the village. One explorer who visited the city found that a woman who matches the description given by Svanlata had died nine years earlier.

Research subsequently confirmed that a young girl named Biya lived in such a house in that city. Svanlata's father decided to take his daughter to the city to introduce her to the members of Biya's family and check if she really was this reincarnated person.

Especially for verification, the family presented people who had nothing to do with this child. Svanlata immediately identified these people as strangers.

Indeed, some of the details of her past life described to her were so accurate that everyone was amazed.

Reincarnation Case 4: Patrick Christensen and his brother

Another case that offers significant evidence for reincarnation is that of Patrick Christensen, who was born by caesarean section in Michigan in March 1991.

His older brother, Kevin, died of cancer twelve years ago at the age of two. Kevin's first signs of cancer began to appear six months before his death, when he began to walk with a noticeable limp.

One day he fell and broke his leg. After an examination and a biopsy of a small nodule on his head, just above his right ear, it was found that little Kevin had cancer with metastases.

Soon, growing tumors were found elsewhere on his body. One of them was a swelling of the eye, and eventually it led to blindness in that eye.

Kevin received chemotherapy through a vein on the right side of his neck. He eventually died of his illness three weeks after his second birthday.

Patrick was born with an oblique birthmark resembling a small incision in his neck on the right, at the same place where Kevin's vein was punctured for chemotherapy, which points to stunning evidence of reincarnation.

He also had a nodule on his head just above his right ear and clouding of his left eye, which was diagnosed as a corneal thorn. When he began to walk, he limped noticeably, again, further evidence of reincarnation.

When he was almost four and a half years old, he told his mother that he would like to return to their old orange brown house. It was the exact color of the house the family lived in in 1979 when Kevin was alive.

Then he asked if she remembered that he had had the operation. She replied that she did not remember, because this had never happened to him. Patrick then pointed to a spot just above his right ear.

Reincarnation Story 5: Memories of Ancestors by Sam Taylor

Another case offers important evidence of reincarnation involving an eighteen-month-old boy named Sam Taylor.

One day, when his father was changing his diaper, the child looked at him and said, “When I was your age, I also changed your diapers.” Sam later gave details about his grandfather's life that were completely accurate.

He said that his grandfather's sister had been killed and that his grandmother used a food processor to make milkshakes for grandfather. Sam's parents were adamant that none of these issues were discussed in his presence.

When Sam was four years old, he was shown a group of old family photos spread out on a table. Sam gleefully identified his grandfather, each time declaring, "It's me!"

In an attempt to test his mother, she chose an old school photo of his grandfather as a little boy and sixteen other boys in it.

Sam immediately pointed to one of them, once again declaring that it was him. He accurately pointed to the photo of his grandfather.

What does this evidence tell us?

Cases identified as reincarnation can be vivid and convincing to some extent, as they appear to testify and prove that a previously living person is reincarnated in a new body.

This belief is reinforced by the observation that moles on a subject's body correspond to the bodily features of the person they embody. This is especially striking when past life personalities have suffered bodily injury.

Corresponding signs or deformations sometimes reappear in the new body, as if offering proof that reincarnation really exists.

Many observers of this phenomenon, including Stevenson himself, are of the opinion that the corresponding moles are important evidence in favor of reincarnation.

However, the coincidence of moles and other bodily functions in a child with the fate of a pre-existing personality is not necessarily a guarantee that that person reincarnates into this child.

It may well be that the brain and body of a child with these birthmarks and bodily characteristics are specially adapted to remember the experience of a person with similar birthmarks and deformities.

This passage on reincarnation is taken from The Immortal Mind: The Science and Continuity of Consciousness Beyond the Brain by Erwin Laszlo and Anthony Pick with permission from the publisher.

Someone comes to an understanding of the multiplicity of incarnations in different bodies after realizing oneself as an eternal Soul. Someone comes to understanding himself as a Soul after remembering himself in past lives. You can unexpectedly recall some episodes from past lives by playing role-playing games or watching the life of another civilization in a movie. And you can purposefully engage in such a memory. But what if in a past life you did not live on Earth? How to remember your past life and why is it necessary?

Why remember the past?

Many people have inexplicable and insurmountable fears. Most are afraid of snakes. Maybe this is due to the civilization of the Nagas, whose inhabitants are described in the Vedas, the oldest source of wisdom? A lot of people run away from small mice and rats with fear. Perhaps their past incarnations fell on the time of the plague in Europe? Be that as it may, but remembering past lives, we can lift the curtain of secrets from our subconscious. And knowledge will give us the opportunity to get rid of most blocks and fears.

In addition, incarnating once again, the Soul sets itself the task of working out all the lessons not learned in that life. Or wrong actions and thoughts. If in that life the Soul incarnated in the body of a person who became a murderer, then she needs to go through the experience of the victim now. Or fate will decide in such a way that you will have to work with killers all your life. For example, in a prison as a security guard or a psychologist. This is a severe mental test.

If in the past incarnation you respected your parents, were a good spouse, but did not have children, then in this incarnation fate will give you a completely happy life.

A lifetime of bad luck with money can be attributed to a single instance of greed, when someone starved to death because of your greed.

If you manage to remember your past life, you will understand the true reasons for your successes and failures. Accepting them with humility is a sure way to pass the lesson, but the lesson can be learned much faster if it is corrected: to serve others, to show respect, to be kind and considerate to all, regardless of their status and position. In this case, you will earn positive karma for yourself in this life. Fate is fair, and by correcting the mistake, you will open the door to a happy future.

By the way, karma is not a punishment and not a problem in life, as many ordinary people interpret it. Karma in Sanskrit means "impact". This means that every action has a corresponding consequence. And if your past life was exemplary in all areas, then you will receive complete happiness in the present. Negativity in life follows only negative actions.

At the time of death, the Soul consciously loses all memories of events from past lives. But they can always be remembered.

Existing Methods

Richard Webster, in his book Past Life Memories, outlines many ways to do this:

• memories in a dream. There is plenty of evidence that 60% of dreams are memories of our past lives. Only we don't remember all our dreams;
• distant memories, when a person gradually spins time from today back, to youth, childhood, infancy, prenatal period, to past lives;
• regression to past incarnations under the influence of hypnosis. Regression is a backtracking method. This method answers the question of how to remember a past life with the help of an experienced hypnotist, preferably with experience with reincarnation;
• vision of lives on water, glass, crystal ball, smooth stones or a mirror. This method was known in many civilizations - Tibetan monks and Nostradamus, in India and at the court of Elizabeth I;
• regression under the ticking of the clock. The very understanding that the clock measures time helps to engage in self-hypnosis and return to past lives;
• talent meditation. Isn't it wonderful that Mozart already played the piano at the age of 4. This undoubted talent he transferred from the last incarnation;
• probing past lives with the help of a pendulum and frames. If you skillfully use these tools, then you should try to find out with their help information about your past incarnations;
• meditation with rainbow and numbers. These practices are about how to remember a past life on your own or with a partner who will guide you;
• meditation with the help of imagination on any that attracts you historical era. This meditation is used in the most difficult cases, when the practitioner is immune to other methods;
• Meditation on the Akashic Records. The Akashic Records is an archive where all the events that have happened, are happening and will happen in the Universe are recorded;
• technique for dealing with emotions. Preferable in cases of obsessive phobias, inexplicable fears;
• remembrance techniques accompanied by spirit guides or guardian angels. Spiritual guides are dead people whose Souls take care of us. These techniques include the automatic writing technique and regression under the guidance of guardian angels.

Preparing for a session

Such an abundance of techniques for remembering past lives implies the presence of many nuances in the preparatory period. But the main and general requirement to anyone is relaxation.

It is necessary to sit comfortably in a chair sitting, reclining or lying on a comfortable trestle bed and completely relax the body. Particular attention should be paid to relaxing the face and head muscles. The eyes should be closed, the look under the closed eyelids is directed slightly upwards. Calm the breath by first carefully observing it, the movement of the chest and abdomen. Quiet your mind, any thoughts that may now come should be directed towards your intention to remember past lives. Be calm and confident that you will succeed.

Take your time and do not strain, afraid of not reaching the goal the first time.

Only training will become you faithful helpers in such an important and necessary matter as improving one's own current life through memories of past incarnations.

They begin to think about such important questions as: “Where did man come from?”, “Does each of us really have a soul?”, “Did our life exist before this?” and many others.

Quite a long time ago, scientists hypothesized that a person lives many lives, only in different bodies. Unfortunately, only a few remember what happened before the last rebirth. Therefore, it is quite obvious that many are interested in how to remember a past life. Some do not even believe that they existed long before the appearance in the twentieth - twenty-first century.

Journey into the past

It is believed that the smallest details of events that took place in a certain period remain in the subconscious of a person from a previous life. Today, few people study their soul, but every day there are more and more people who want to know themselves. It is quite obvious that a person is interested in how to remember a past life, and somewhere in the depths of his subconscious, he believes that he existed before. Of course, who refuse to believe in mysticism, personal development and esotericism, but this does not rid them of the past.

It is believed that a truly internally developed person can know his past, is able, so to speak, to travel in time. Everyone can get the necessary level of knowledge. To do this, it is not necessary to be born unique, absolutely everyone can do it. The only remark and advice: constantly train, take care of yourself, improve - and then everything will work out.

Past life, what is it?

Today it is hard to believe that the past is a part of the person himself, and it has a place to be. It needs to be understood and unraveled. How to remember a past life? People created and developed various techniques to help achieve the desired result. Among the ways to "awaken memories" is very popular hypnosis, but it does not always work one hundred percent. To learn how to travel in time, you need to practice. This can be done alone or with the help of friends or relatives.

Nowadays there is a lot of literature containing theory and practice that could help to awaken past life memories. Studies show that many people quit classes halfway through, because they do not see any changes (results). This is completely in vain, since by desire alone nothing will happen. Having chosen a certain technique, a person must adhere to it and practice daily, and the result will not be long in coming. And it is very important to believe in what you are doing, otherwise it will just be a waste of time.

Human experience

The past life of a person is the greatest mystery that is solved individually. Only a separate person is able to understand his essence and visit any time, feel emotions and survive the events of those times. Being engaged, a person differently perceives what is happening. Some see sketches, such as sketches of the past. Others manage to visit there in a dream and feel everything for themselves, as if it were yesterday. Still others suddenly receive information that fits into a puzzle and becomes obvious.

One way or another, the memory of a past life returns, gradually or suddenly, taking the person by surprise. Sometimes people can experience events that have already happened a long time ago. For example, to observe the communication of the characters as if from the outside and gradually realize that one of them is I. After a certain time, people heard incomprehensible, alien speech, which, however, used to be their own. Some of them understood this language, although they had never before in their life (real, momentary) encountered its speakers. The experience of each person is individual, and the subconscious can react to what is happening in completely different ways.

Method called "Rainbow"

Not everyone believes in reincarnation, but many are interested in whether there is a past life. Agree, who would not want to know the most striking events that took place many years ago, and even with whom? With myself! That is why methods, techniques have been developed to help lift the mysterious veil. How to remember a past life? Try a method called "Rainbow".

The essence of the method is as follows: a person should lie down comfortably and relax as much as possible. If it is more comfortable to be in a sitting position - please. Next, you need to close your eyes, free your mind from unnecessary thoughts, body from tension, soul from emotions. Our goal is to achieve relaxation. It's okay if it doesn't work the first time, this procedure is really difficult. Agree, who can instantly stop thinking? All sorts of thoughts come into my head: “What to cook for dinner?”, “When do I pay the bills?”, “I forgot to take the necessary medicines,” and so on. But over time, the right state comes.

Breathing should be even, mood upbeat, but in general you should be in absolute calmness. A person should feel the pleasure of peace, not forgetting to breathe. When you have reached this state, it is necessary to proceed to the analysis of the soul. Look inside, say to yourself: "I remember a past life." Play with flowers. First imagine red, stop, notice the sensations, then orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. What do you see? It is possible that at these moments some memories will come up in a person or emotions will come flooding in, for example, joy, excitement, sadness, and so on.

Essence of Techniques

If a person decides to find out about his past life by all means, then he needs to remember the following. Before proceeding with the analysis of your perception of the soul, it is necessary to achieve complete relaxation, while not forgetting to breathe. Optimal rhythm: take a deep breath, hold for a few seconds and exhale. In general, this procedure should take at least 10 seconds. Also, you should always practice in silence and comfort. Nothing should distract or annoy the person. Past life regression is a rather laborious and lengthy process, but you should not stop halfway. You should pay attention to the sensations - they are the key to knowing the past life.

Awakening

The rainbow effect is based on sensations that intersect with the most common colors. The soul must react to one of them, the memory will awaken, and drawings, sketches, pictures may appear in the head. The main thing is to concentrate, not to rush, everything will come gradually. The Rainbow effect is to analyze the colors in a certain sequence. At the end of the exercise, everything must be done in reverse. That is, start with purple and finish in red. At the end of the process, stretch, straighten, restore your breath and put your palms to your eyes. If you rub your hands together, they will become hot. Putting palms to the eyes, a person will feel the flow of energy, warmth. After that, they can be opened - the procedure is considered completed.

Application of methods

You can search for memories from the past as much as you like, even every day. The main thing is to do it right. You can't just sit down and torment your mind, trying to remember everything. In fact, this is unrealistic, because you don’t even know what to remember ... First you need to relax, feel peace, and then set a goal for yourself. In the same way, you can’t get up abruptly and go about your business. You need to relax, slowly open your eyes and slowly get up. The whole process should be calm, relaxed, and then the result will be.

As mentioned, there are a lot of techniques, but they all require concentration. Therefore, no matter what way of knowing oneself a person chooses, he must learn to enter a state of relaxation and exit it. To get to your subconscious, you need to work, but it's worth it.

Independent work

Note that to the question: “How to find out your past life?” there are three answers: on your own, through hypnosis and research. Consider the first case, which is available to absolutely everyone.

First you need to prepare the room (room). To do this, you need to create the most favorable conditions: turn off the phone, drown out the noise, turn off the lights, and so on. If a person relaxes better to the sound of waves beating against the shore, or the singing of birds, then appropriate music should be put on. The second stage is complete relaxation (how to achieve it is described above). Having concentrated, it is necessary to mentally prepare for a journey into the past. At this moment, you can imagine anything, for example, a road, railroad tracks, a train, an airplane, a car, and so on. Then start your journey. Imagine that you see a door, and behind it - your past life. When you're ready, open it. Everything that a person sees at such moments is not accidental, therefore, after waking up, you need to analyze every detail. Perhaps, after several trips, the answer will come by itself.

It is important to be patient, if nothing can be seen or, conversely, there is too much of everything, and you start to get confused, you should not be upset. Practice pays off. Remember to return to the present (calmly, relaxed).

Hypnotherapy

If past life regression fails, you can always turn to a hypnotherapist who will gladly help you remember everything. During the session, it may be possible to find out Interesting Facts and details.

It is worth noting that a person's past life does not always consist of fabulous events and is similar to paradise. Sometimes people find out about the terrible events that happened to them before. But do not be afraid of them - this is a bitter experience that we had to endure, which, fortunately, was left behind.

It is recommended to write down all memories after waking up. Let something seem like a trifle, but perhaps this will be the key to unraveling. Also, a person must understand that memories are part of his soul, so you should not be very critical of them. In addition, it is not recommended to be too zealous, because of this you will not be able to know yourself faster. It is worth noting that if the technique does not work, you can consider and study other techniques, maybe this will go faster. If it doesn't work, try again and again until you know everything that interests you.

One way or another, past lives, future lives - they all do not matter as much as the present, so you do not need to dwell on them too much. but keep in mind that deep down you can be a brilliant poet or an amazing actress. Memories hidden in the depths of the subconscious can dramatically change your life. And they can explain a lot. For example, fear of heights, darkness, confined space, and so on - most likely, not very pleasant events from a previous life are associated with them. After all, as the proverb says, whoever does not know his past has no future. But with the help of this knowledge, you can get rid of phobias and even cure many diseases.

Incredible Facts

Is it possible to remember the details, names and dates of your past life?

Or return to earth in the body of another person in order to find his killer and pay him what he deserves?

Or maybe to see your loved ones again?

Scientific evidence and facts prove that this is possible.

Here are 10 great stories that actually happened, where there are "memories of a past life" .

Memories of past lives

1. 3-year-old boy remembered his past life, found his killer, as well as a hidden body

The late Dr. Eli Lasch, best known for his scientific work in Gaza as part of Israeli operations, studied the case of a 3-year-old boy who lived close to the border with Syria and Israel.

The boy said that he remembers how in a past life he was hacked to death with an ax. He told the details of his murder and even showed the village elders where his body was buried.

The body with a wound on the head was indeed found at the specified location.

In addition, he made public the place where the murder weapon itself was hidden. After the evidence was presented, he also identified his killer, confidently pointing to one of his neighbors.

The evidence confirming his guilt was so irrefutable that the man confessed to the crime.

past life of a person

2. The boy remembered his wife and the killer from a past life and found them again

Semih Tutusmus was born in the village of Sarkonak, Turkey.

As soon as the boy learned to talk, he told the family that his real name was Selim Fesli.

But something else is also strange: when the boy's mother was pregnant with him, she had a dream in which a man with a bloodied face, communicating with her, told some details of his life. He claimed that his name was Selim Fesli.

It turned out that a person with that name really lived in a neighboring village and died in 1958. He was shot in the face and right ear.

Tutus was born with a deformed right ear.

When he was 4 years old, the boy went to Fesli's house and said to his widow: "I am Selim, and you are my wife, Katibe."

He remembered some details of their life together, and also named the names of their children. No one could know these details, except for the deceased himself.

He then shocked everyone by identifying the person who shot him. This case was studied by the late Dr. Ian Stevenson of the University of Virginia.

I remember my past life

3. A fireman was a general in the Civil War

Retired firefighter Jaffrey Keene felt an inexplicable desire to visit the field, where during civil war the famous Battle of Antietam took place between North and South.

Geoffrey went there as a tourist, but strange, almost anguished emotions did not leave him for a long period. Feeling almost physical pain, he could hardly describe in words everything he felt.

Discussing these feelings later with specialists, the phrase “not now” constantly revolved in Jeffrey’s head.

He became interested in the topic of the civil war and began to look through literature in local libraries and archives.

In one of the sources, he found an article about John Brown Gordon (John B. Gordon), a general who took part in the Civil War.

It turned out that the famous war hero resolutely repeated the phrase "not now" while holding his troops at the Battle of Antietam.

Also striking was the physical resemblance between him and Gordon. In addition, many of the firefighters in his brigade were remarkably similar to the people who took part in the battlefield.

Keene found other similarities between the general's appearance and his own. For example, in the place where Gordon was wounded, Keane showed birthmarks.

This case was studied by Dr. Walter Semkiw, a psychiatrist who works as an expert on reincarnation at the Institute for the Integration of Science, Intuition and Spirit (IISIS).

What was in a past life

4. The boy remembers his past life as a pilot in World War II

Dr. Jim Tucker of the University of Virginia studied the case of James Leininger of Louisiana.

When the boy was 2 years old, he began to have nightmares associated with a plane crash.

After terrifying visions, Jim claimed that he had been shot down by the Japanese, that his plane had taken off from the USS Natoma Bay, and that he had a friend named Jack Larson.

He also suggested that in a past life his name was James.

As it turns out, during World War II, there really was a pilot named James Huston Jr.

The life and death of this guy, surprisingly, coincided with all the details told by the boy.

With the help of the photograph, Leininger was also able to identify the site where Houston's plane had crashed.

Is there a past life

Remembering past lives

6. 4-year-old boy remembers his past life in Hollywood

Ryan was 4 years old when he began to remember his past life, which he spent in Hollywood, which was tragically cut short after he had a heart attack.

The book about Hollywood provoked a wave of further "memories".

And after the boy saw Night after Night, a 1932 film, he claimed to be friends with the man who played the role of the cowboy in the film and was also the actor in the cigarette commercial.

Actor Gordon Nance starred in this film. He starred in a number of films, playing cowboys, and, indeed, was the face of cigarette advertising.

Ryan presented a picture of his past life, spoke about a man named Marty Martin.

Ryan correctly reproduced the scenes in which Martin was involved and even described his life in great detail.

He spoke in detail about the actor's life, for example, about dancing on Broadway, about his three younger sisters, and also correctly named the color of his car.

This unusual case was dealt with by Dr. Tucker, who confirmed Ryan's memories by comparing the data obtained from the boy with members of Marty Martin's family.

Dive into past lives

7. The boy remembers his past life as a monk in Sri Lanka

Duminda Bandara Ratnayake, a three-year-old boy from Tundeniya, Sri Lanka, suddenly started talking about his past life as a monk.

He insisted on observing all the rituals and restrictions that are characteristic of the life of monks.

The boy confidently stated that he was the oldest monk in the temple of Asgiriya and that he died of chest pains.

He also talked about having a red car and a radio. He described the elephant with particular love.

The Venerable Mahanayaka Gannepana, the late Asgirian temple monk, did indeed live a few years ago. The details of his life and death matched everything the boy had said.

There were only minor discrepancies throughout the description: for example, he owned a gramophone instead of a radio, but the boy may not have known how to describe the gramophone, so he could not accurately identify this particular item.

This case has been carefully studied by Dr. Elendur Haraldsson, professor emeritus at the University of Iceland in Reykjavik.

Memory of past lives

8. Lebanese boy remembers his past life

Dr. Haraldson traveled to Lebanon to learn more about another strange case involving a boy named Nazih Al-Danaf.

Al-Danaf began telling his parents about his past life as soon as he learned to speak.

He proudly talked about his weapons, which he allegedly owned.

At the same time, the boy used terms that you obviously do not expect to hear from a small child.

His parents were also surprised that at this age their son showed an increased interest in cigarettes and whiskey.

He also spoke about a mute girlfriend who had only one arm, said that he had a red car and that he was shot by some people who came to his house.

Al-Danaf went to the house where he lived in a previous life. This small town of Caberchamun is located only 20 kilometers from his current home.

Indeed, a man named Fuad Asad Haddaj once lived there, and the details of his life fully corresponded to what the boy told.

The widow of Haddaj asked the boy some questions to test him. The questions were of the following nature: "Who laid the foundation of this gate at the entrance to the house?", "Who painted the walls?" etc.

Nazih answered all the questions correctly, this convinced relatives and friends that the boy was telling the truth and that he actually remembers his past life.

In the 60s of the last century, in one of the Lebanese villages, Professor Ian Stevenson had a chance to talk and write down the stories of unusual children who remember the details of their past lives.

The first scientist met six-year-old Imad Al-Awar. The first words that the unintelligent Imad uttered were “Mahmud” and “Jamili”. This greatly surprised the boy's relatives, since among them there was no one with such names. A little later, he began to use the word "Khirby" frequently.

When Imad was two years old, another strange incident occurred. He noticed an unfamiliar man walking along the road, and ran up to him and began to hug him. The traveler asked the boy if he knew him. Imad quickly said that they were good neighbors. As it turned out, the man lived in the village of Khirby, which was located thirty kilometers from here.

A few years later, the boy learned to speak coherently. He began to tell amazing things for his sister and mother. He recalled that Jamila was very beautiful. He talked about his life in Khirby, where he always wanted to go. He also recalled an accident when one of his close relatives had his legs crushed by the wheels of a truck, from which he soon died. Although the relatives treated the boy's stories quite complacently, the father strictly forbade the boy to talk about his past life. He was annoyed at the thought that his son was someone else's incarnation.

Professor Stevenson was interested in this unusual phenomenon, he talked a lot with Imad, asked his relatives. Later, the professor went to the village of Khirby. Here the professor was able to find out that in 1943 a truck really crippled a young man named Saida, who died of traumatic shock. The deceased had cousin Ibrahim, who was denounced in the village for a dissolute lifestyle with his mistress Jamila. Ibrahim contracted tuberculosis and died very early - he was only 25 years old. For the past six months, he has been in bed, being cared for by his uncle Mahmud. As it turned out, the house in which Ibrahim lived his last years, was quite accurately described by Imad. And the man who lived in the next house was the same stranger whom the boy hugged.

Ian Stevenson was able to establish that of the forty-seven facts told by Imad about his past life, forty-four were true and related to the life of Ibrahim Bumghazi.

For 25 years of research, Professor Stevenson managed to collect more than a thousand similar cases of phenomenal "reincarnation". He talked with hundreds of storytellers who told him about events that happened even before they were born. The data that Stevenson collected shows that people who reincarnated as newborns died prematurely or violently. However, this does not mean that rebirth happens only for those who died a violent death.

But the violent death of a person leads to deep traces not only in the soul, the bodies of the reincarnated also suffer, most often where there were mortal wounds that led to death. This fact can be traced in the case described by scientists from the Institute of Biophysical and Psychical Research in Brazil.

Girl Tina, born in Sao Paulo, worked in one of the law firms. Already in early age she knew her name and many details from her previous life. "Then" she was Alex, and her mother's name was Angela. They lived in France. Even now, Tina loves everything French and also hates the Germans, as during the occupation she was shot dead by a Nazi soldier. The girl says that this is confirmed by strange marks on her back and chest. They really look like a prolonged bullet wound. Doctors note that the same traces remain on the human body in the case when a bullet hits the chest and pierces the body right through.

Another interesting case is connected with Joan Grant, who was born into a strict English family in 1907. Already at a young age, memories of a previous life in a distant country began to come to her. She told her parents about it, but they forbade her to mention it. Already matured, Joan went to Egypt. There, so many vivid memories of the era of the pharaohs began to come to her that she decided to write them down in detail. She collected many such texts, but all the information was fragmentary.

But still, thanks to the support of her husband, a psychiatrist, Joan wrote the book "The Winged Pharaoh", based on her memoirs. She came out in 1937. It describes the life of Seketa, the daughter of a pharaoh who ruled almost three thousand years ago. Scientists, critics, and especially Egyptologists, highly appreciated the creation of the young writer, noting her deepest knowledge in the field of culture and history. ancient egypt. True, they were very doubtful about the fact that Joan was at one time Seketa. Memories were enough to publish six more historical novels, which, according to Joan, are chronicles of her previous life.

Many consider such cases to be fictions, or hallucinations, which gave birth to a tired or sick brain of people. But what amazing hallucinations can describe reality so accurately? Naturally, skeptics will say that memories of the past were considered by people with paranormal abilities. But none of the heroes of "reincarnation" had psychic abilities. Moreover, the information that is received extrasensory is most often fragmentary and unrelated. And the memories of reborn people are consistently built into one huge story, into one destiny.

Buddhists and Hindus believe that people's actions move the force or law of karma that determines a person's destiny in the next birth. The soul that has a large number of negative karma accumulated as a result of unrighteous actions in a past life, must atone for all their sins during the next incarnation. Thus, human life is only one of the stages in the development of the soul, which has to be reborn in different human bodies in order to achieve perfection. Such a religious and spiritual concept allows people to come to terms with hardships. Everyday life which are not always correct. It prepares people to face the inevitable, while at the same time saying that life always has a purpose and meaning. At the same time, people have hope for eternal existence.
