I agree Chris.
Also things such as a person who may be intensely visual in this life being very conscious of smells.
I think these are all factors that need to be weighed into the balance in considering if the regression is 'real' or 'imagined'.
Some years ago I was staying in a country house a friend. I was sleeping on a camp bed. It was mid summer and quite hot, but the room felt freezing and I could not keep warm.
Subsequently other visitors experienced the same thing and I was advised that it was believed that in Victorian...
The civil standard is only balance of convenience / reasonable satisfaction- which would be possible to satisfy with the right evidence. You would never satisfy beyond reasonable doubt - the criminal standard of proof which is akin to scientific proof.
There are quite a lot of experienced...
I agree with Nighttrain's first comment. Personal proof may not be necessary to the individual- and probably will not in most cases. I for example personally do not care if others accept my belief although I get annoyed with people who are so ignorant as to joke about it.
However, scientific...
Lawyer Daggett was a character in a number of John Wayne's later westerns. He represented the 'new' way of settling disputes in the west at the turn of the 20th century.
It is reflective of my occupation- and my interest in the old west which I have always been drawn to.
I must say that I...
Hydrolad- how are you about cold and water, since a survived ditching with death shortly after would have presumably involved freezing to death or drowning.
I imagine Dr Stevenson would have screened out same families because of the possibility of scientific contamination. The Children would have the same genes as the deceased, and thus similar traits, and would hear things about the past in the household.
Remember, Dr Stevenson was first and...
I have come across some evidence in regression of a life in WW1 and WW2- both aviation linked - and have seen the lead up to my death in both cases.
The interesting thing is I am a visual person and am not really conscious of smell unless it is really bad. In both regressions I was conscious...
I think the darker aspects are one reason why we do not consciously know what we were in a past life.
The baggage would be too much to take. It is enough to deal with bad Karma!
Has hereafter been released yet in the US? and has anyone seen it?.
Australia tends to be a few months behind the US with new movies and I am eagerly awaiting this one.
Thanks for the list. I have previously seen some of E Harraldsson of Iceland's research, which is of good quality. It will be interesting to check out some of these other leads.
I agree with you, as an Attorney I am naturally a very skeptical beast. To me there is such a volume of evidence...
I was having difficulty viewing it, and so cannot comment upon this story, but the Oprah show did a story featuring Dr Oz experiencing past lives regression.
Dr Oz was scientific in his responses as one would expect from a Cardiologist and did not openly endorse PLT. The tenor of the story was...
I would love dogs to be able to reincarnate, or for me to at least be able to meet up with some old canine partners when I eventually pass on- even if it is just for the period before I wind back on earth.
I guess the logical response is reincarnation or transmigration of soles is that it is...
stornado11- you refer to 'German' background and to the Nazi's.
There is a big difference. Many Germans, including those in the armed forces were not 'Nazi's.
Can you think of particular activities that identify your past with the Nazi cause? If not, I suggest you go easy on yourself.
I once heard an interview with Johnny Cash, who played as part of a song called 'Highwayman', their signature tune about a fellow who was a highwayman, who reincarnated as a sailor, a dam worker and as a pilot of a space ship and who is wondering what he will come back as next.
Apparently he...
I fully accept that what I have dreamed and experienced under hypnosis may be the result of a fertile imagination, although under hypnosis I experience smell and feel as well as sight- something I never experience in dreams- which seem restricted to sight.
However, research involving children...
I agree entirely with Nighttrain1. I do not think that, taking on board Christianities role as an instrument of social control, they did society any good at all when the early church decided to drop reincarnation as a belief.
The knowledge that if you do your best in this life you can expect...
I have never heard of it happening voluntarily, probably because it is not exactly the kind of thing people who have done it tend to talk about.
Where it happens involuntarily it is called 'being possessed', which would get us into a discussion of ghosts and evil spirits in general and matters...
