Past Lives: True Stories of Reincarnation Book

This text examines the theory of reincarnation which has played a part in the religions, myths and folklore of many races and cultures. From Tibetan Buddhists to Hollywood film stars, from Haitian witch-doctors to Tory wives, belief in reincarnation exists, even if the evidence is far from concrete. "Past Lives" details the case history of several British people who believe that they have lived before, examining the methods by which they explore their former existences, probing their beliefs and recounting their stories. Among them, are a man who claims to have stood on the deck of "Victory" and saw Nelson fall, a woman who drowned on the "Titanic", a man who fought in the Crimea and another who claims 247 previous lives. The book also looks into the historical, mythical and religious beginnings of reincarnation, talks to therapists, psychologists and laymen about their use of regression therapy, and examines all aspects of the cult of reincarnation.Read More
