This is just a taste of the advice Carol wrote in CPL. The whole chapter goes into more detail, with illustrative cases.

EXCERPT FROM CHILDREN'S PAST LIVES by Carol Bowman Chapter 12: What a Parent Can Do If she mentions dying, concentrate on the circumstances surrounding the moment of death. Ask questions, like "How did you die?" "Who was with you when you died?" "What happened just before you died?" Use...

EXCERPT FROM CHILDREN'S PAST LIVES Chapter 12: What a Parent Can Do If she mentions dying, concentrate on the circumstances surrounding the moment of death. Ask questions, like "How did you die?" "Who was with you when you died?" "What happened just before you died?" Use open questions, too...

Carol and I wrote the Four Signs in 1997 and the Forum moderators have been applying it to potential cases ever since. It holds up, and we haven’t seen a need to change or improve it.

EXCERPT FROM CHILDREN'S PAST LIVES Chapter 10: The Four Signs When I talk to people of children's past life memories, invariably the first question they ask is: "How can you distinguish past life stories from fantasies?" At first I could answer by saying only, "Well, the parent just knows."...

If you just heard one of the TTT episodes and have a comment or question specific to that episode, go to the subforum that corresponds to the episode. If your comment or question is more general, go to the approperate forum in the Discussion area. For example, if when listening to Episode 1...

Carol and I have been working with Ky Dickens, founder of The Telepathy Tapes, since January 2026, collaborating closely with Ky and her producer, Cooper Moll. Carol’s work will be featured heavily in this third season of TTT that Ky has titled “The Reincarnation Record.” She was interviewed...

Breaking news: Ky has asked us to be part of a documentary on reincarnation. Film doc, as opposed to an audio podcast.

Carol and I have decided to reverse our passive roles with the Forum and get actively involved again, as we were in the first ten years or so (starting in 1997). Two things prompting this. First, is that we are concerned at the drop in traffic and new members. The Reincarnation Forum is...

The Washington Post just published an excellent article about children who remember past lives. It features Jim Tucker. It fails to mention Carol at all. This could be a chance to set the record straight if this author were to follow up with an article that spotlights Carol's pioneering work and...

How are we handling these suggestions? I think Sarra has a good point. Dark mode is the kind of detail that we older people don't appreciate that young people expect, and the kind of suggestion we welcome. Thank you @Sarra for explaining this.

Totoro. I love it! Maybe a little past life humor. But the main appeal should be something like: "If you got value from this Forum, please pay a little of it back so that we will always be here for you and for other souls who follow."

Any volunteers for FaceBook Ambassador? We do have a FaceBook page, but I don't know what it does now. I'm not a FaceBook person. https://www.facebook.com/PastLifeForum/

Creating a non-profit and all that is a long-term goal, nothing we're going to do right now. I'm just framing our current modernization as a step, a stage, towards the Reincarnation Forum being an institution not dependent on any individuals, including Carol and me. I agree that defining roles...

Karen, what would it take to make collaboration with ICRR a reality? Can we start a dialogue about that? To the extent it requires modifications to our policies and procedures here, we need to get our mods and leaders in on the discussion. And Carol, or course. But I agree, whatever differences...

Wow. All good stuff. This is exactly the kind of issues that Carol and I want to bring out into the open. The big idea, here in 2022, is that the Reincarnation Forum (after its recent near-death experience) be modernized and retooled to resume its role as a leader and force for good among the...

@landsend Have you tried accessing the XenForo community forum? That's a great place for questions like this. I'm encouraging mods to get in the habit of going there to learn XenForo better and solve problems. It's at https://xenforo.com/community/ Go there and register. I think to get into...

We totally in favor of making our Forum more visible online. We have so many stories to tell that, if packaged especially for the other media types, should alert more people that we exist--people that need us but didn't know to look. Clearly we should organize a list of external resources...

If these guidelines sound overly strict, narrow, or harsh, please understand the 25 years of experience that goes into them. There are two types of situations where they are called for. One is overtly obnoxious posters who are clearly just trying to cause trouble. Trolls. People with their own...

@landsend I'll take you up on your offer. What do you need to fix our mobile-responsive header?
