    My oldest son learned to talk almost at the same time he learned to walk by himself, so it was really strange to hear him say a lot of things that a kid his age wouldn't normally say. A lot of those things were about another mom he had, and that she was a bad mom, she always treat him badly. I never wanted to get notoriety about that, I don't need any strangers attention, but I believe that he had some memories, things that I can't explain. The most horrifying phrase he once said was " I don't wanna be put in a box again, I was scared and I felt so sad", he was three years old then. Now he is a 8 year old and there's no trace of those memories, I never encouraged it, it was more scary than interesting for me.
    The memories faded gradually at age 6, and I felt relieved. I believe there's a lot we don't know about to what happens to our energy after death, but I also think that people that exposes their children with those themes are just seeking popularity.

    At the age of 2, my nephew would very clearly describe the motorcycle accident that killed a family friend. He was born 2 months premature. My sister's labor started just a couple of hours after our friend died. I always like to debunk any sort of supernatural incident instead of automatically jumping to that conclusion. I'm not sure what the logical explanation would be for this. I do think there is no earthly reason for him to know the specific details of a tragic death of a man he never met. Even if somebody did tell him about this, which nobody remembers doing, I doubt we would have discussed with a toddler the minute details of his accident.

    • @croissantlover1
      @croissantlover1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      yes exactly. There are so many who want to avoid facing the possibility of reincarnation. When I was young I was horrified and fascinated at the same time of WWII and especially Omaha beach was a strong feeling of being part of it and still feel like that today. The thing is, lets look at the concept: If we could tell and even 100% know we were someone from a previous life, it would be risky for the current life. You see, if I 100% knew I was an allied soldier on Omaha beach back in the day, I'd have those very hateful, angry feelings towards Germans and still feel them towards modern day germans. It would create a bad outcome too. Not only that, but if we all knew who we were in a previous life, it would create massive problems for the whole world. I like to think there's a massive amount of stuff we just dont understand with not only ourselves, but the universe. We know the big bang happened. But why? In my opinion, everything's a simulation or a game, and we decided to play this game. We have the concept of a universe too. So we cant rule out that there could be an infinite more of them. Other realities, other universes. Maybe even What-if universes where all the bad things happen but nobody is actually hurt. Again, it opens up so many questions, but thats the whole point in this. It would make it too easy if we knew everything. If people knew for sure there was an afterlife too, there would be many more suicides, and that would likely ruin the whole point of this simulation that we agreed to play.

    Wow! Fascinating. I think you're analysis is Right On. Interestingly enough, my Son was watching Political shows age 5. He told me then he was going to be a Lawyer. He had Extensive knowledge regarding past and present Presidents. At the time I was doing research in the field of Politics, as I had earned a degree in Political Science. Well, my Son graduated High School in three years age 17. Graduated FSU in 3 years age 20, with a degree in Finance. Graduated in 3 years age 23, from Mauer School of Law at IU with a degree in Jurisprudence. When he was little he didn't want to watch cartoons, he'd rather watch Political shows. He came to me in 1st grade and asked me if he could stay up past his curfew 9pm to watch the Presidential Debate!? However, I don't think he was the reincarnation of Abraham Lincoln. 👌

      Too many other parents would crush it and tell their child what he is interested in is boring, question why they wanted to watch it, shame them saying other children their age/or normal children would rather watch cartoons etc etc. So congrats on not being that type of parent to squash their interest and instead let it naturally bloom.

My grandson’s first word was “triceratops”. We were pretty surprised since he hadn’t said mama or dada yet. He loved dinosaur cartoons, kid movies, etc. We figured it was the first thing he was interested in enough to actually say. He went on to love everything about dinosaurs, had (has) a huge collection of them, and developed a normal vocabulary as well. At no point did we think he may have been a caveman reincarnated. I would rather encourage the interest into a career as a paleontologist working in a museum someday, or teaching science. It would have been a great disservice if we had fashioned one-shouldered leopard skin garments, big clubs and allowed him to go barefoot everywhere.

    The boy just like planes and their parents put these ideas in his mind. I remember the movie "Reincarnation", where a boy found a diary of the ex-fiance of a woman that died. He convinced the woman that he was the reincarnation of her dead fiance, making her break up with her actual fiance. In the end the farce came to an end and she realized how she was duped by her own wishful thinking, even going against everyone that said to her she was deluded. The movie ends with her begging her ex-fiance (the alive one) to come back and admitting she was wrong, and the guy accepted because she was humiliating herself and he was also a little depressed with the break up. The movie is amazing, a lot of very creative scenes.

    I wrote a thorough criticism of the pitiful case of James Leininger some years ago. My contention was that the parents reinforced in James the notion that he was a reincarnated fighter pilot. They did it for the usual reasons, a book deal and financial gain. Nothing young James imagined was not available through normal little boy culture and watching Black Sheep Squadron. When you analyze specific details of young James's fantasies, they actually do not perfectly correspond to people, places, ships, and events of World War II, Pacific Theater.

I've seen people who should be brain dead tell us things about their death, after they should be vegetables at best, come out fine. I believe these people, most of them. We even had a fellow x ray engineer, die from factor 5 clotting, dead 42 minutes, revived completely, tell us things that no one should know. He said he was sent back.

    My younger brother has autism, and as a kid, he watched a ton of World War documentaries, movies, and educational videos, but he was able to pay attention to the smallest details in one history movie, such as dates and names, and piece them together to a documentary covering the same topic.
    My parents could ask him a random question on that subject that none of us knew, such as "Who was the leader of such and such a country during such and such a year?" and he could answer it immediately and accurately, even repeating quotes and phrases, which amazed us all.
    However, he was able to do that at an even younger age when he was obsessed with firefighters, so the World War obsession was literally just a phase he grew out of as he got older.
    I even found that if I struggled with difficult Candy Crush levels, he could beat them much easier than I could.
    My parents went to different people and did research, and it turns out that children with autism are much more focused and pick up details much better than the average person, which means my brother is basically a genius, but his interests never remain on one topic forever. After a couple of years, he loses interest in one, seems to forget all that information he collected from it, and picks up another.
    Not saying this kid here is autistic, but that's absolutely something to look into.

    I used to believe in reincarnation, but no longer profess to know anything about "the afterlife." Here is an odd story, though: When I was 18-19, I attended a party. An older man walked up to me and asked out of the blue if I felt any affinity to ancient Egypt. Kind of a strange opening line. The friend I was with blurted out that I was (I had very recently just painted hieroglyphics all over my bedroom walls). The man told me that I was a high priest in ancient Egypt and my friend was a slave girl and we had had a scandalous love affair together, thousands of years ago in the past. Then he walked away and I never saw him, again.

    I've got real problems with, not so much Dr. Grande's conclusions, but how he reaches them. He concludes by talking about how people can invent beliefs in things that are false because they want them to be true. It seems that he may be guilty of the opposite: Believing that things are false because he wants them to be.
    Most striking in his analysis are the things that he leaves out. He never talks about James Huston's family, specifically the woman James Leininger said had been his sister, who also became convinced of his story. There are many things omitted from Leininger's claims about both Huston's civilian life and his life as a pilot. For instance, the Leiningers claim that their son gave the names of three of his shipmates who had died before Huston. The boy said that they met him when he died. Another account from a pilot who saw Huston's plane get shot down corroborated the specifics of the boy's account.
    Dr. Grosse also claims that a documentary that was made before Huston was identified had been, "conveniently lost". This appears to be false, as the head of the University of Virginia's Division of Perceptual Studies, Dr. Jim Tucker, says that he watched the video. The University of Virginia has researched children who claim to remember past lives for more than 60 years and has over 2500 case studies on record. The sheer volume of cases itself goes a long way in debunking any hoax theories. Yet this video treats this case as if it were an isolated exception.
    We all tend to believe what we want to believe. And this can be a real impediment to what we like to call objectivity. Regardless of the truth or falsity of the claims made in this case, it seems that Dr. Grande has failed to turn the critical lense on himself.

    This is actually quite a fascinating case! Author Leslie Kean did a chapter (Surviving Death) on James Leininger who claimed he was the reincarnation of WWII pilot James Huston. There are so many details that the little boy gave his parents that are hard to dismiss away. From telling his mother the difference between a fuel drop tank from a bomb to his father finding out about a CVE carrier ( the Natoma Bay) which is little known about, also personnel which were James's friends who either died (some were pilots who died before James Huston) or were still living. The boy visited the sister of James Huston and he recalled things only she knew about. Most adults don't know their WWII history let alone who the Vice President of the United States is. For a 3 year old to remember all this information is quite extraordinary. From what I recall the boy's memories faded after the age of 6 or 7. He doesn't have much of any recollection's present day. His is not the only case of children experiencing past lives. Leslie has another chapter about a child who claims they were a Hollywood 1930s B movie star. Again, this child knew information that was hard to find even in the Hollywood files from the time. Whether or not we believe in reincarnation, NDEs, OBEs there are some mysteries in life that even science cannot explain away. Another such mysterious topic would be the UFO/UAP subject. For decades it was ridiculed by science, media etc. as tin foil hat people that were nuts. But here we are in 2022 and the UFO/UAP debate is a hot topic! They are real and we don't know where they come from or who is behind them. Leslie Kean also has a 2010 book out on that topic which is perhaps one of the best ever written about that enigmatic topic.

      The WW2 pilot's surving sister sent James a painting from her childhood. One her mother had done of her when she was little. This kid strangely knew about it well enough to request it during their meeting without ever being told about it. Some will say it's just coincidence, as if parents painting portraits of their kids is something common.
      Also the old lady had kept the painting all those years. She wouldn't have given something with such sentimental value to a random kid unless she truly believed there was something special.

    The law of cause and effect is absolute.
    If reincarceration... er I mean reincarnation is a fact of life then it must also be governed by a law.
    And it doesn't matter what the belief, it will not effect the law e.g.
    A person jumps off a cliff believing they can fly vs A person tripping and falling off a cliff.
    The effects of the law of gravity are the same regardless of how we approach them.
    In this presentation the word "super natural" was used to describe reincarnation which demonstrates a belief and not an understand.
    The reason why this is noted is because it is impossible to answer the question of James with anything other than conjecture based on belief.
    If Todd knew that reincarnation is a fact of life and knew the laws by which it operated then how would he have approached this question.
    The fact is Todd doesn't know and has answered this question based on his prejudice.

    This is my first time asking you to analize an ongoing case, but it's really significant to me as a Chilean, Valentina was a Chilean girl who was visiting her sister with her mother and a bullet struck her while she was in a locker room trying on clothes for the holidays, while officer William Jones shoot a man (who turned out unarmed) named Daniel Elena López, who was attacking a female customer. I saw the body cam footage and even the other police officers told Jones to "slow down".

    Older memories are weaker(for most people) in detail and accuracy. So imagine a memory from 100 years ago; it would be hard for a person to accurately recall the correct time, date, location that an incident happened. Reincarnation is known through past life memories, the weakest , and most disconnected memories there are. Past lives are inherently harder to prove than experiences that happened yesterday.
    However, just because something is hard to prove, it does not mean that it did not happen. We know that many times when people experience something (especially a traumatic ordeal), the memory is weak and seems inconsistent due to the person's state of mind as they were experiencing it, which did not allow them to absorb information very well.
    In his analysis, the intelligent and scientifically-informed Dr Todd points out that the evidence for reincarnation, in this case, is weak. However, it does not mean we should conclude that it did not happen or say the people who say it happened are liars or have bad intentions. In this scenario, there is no evidence given that the boy's family did this for money or fame. Most people do not know the family's financial situation, goals, and desires for fame, yet some people frame them as fame and money-hungry people. Any guesses about the parents' true 'motives' are conjecture, as we do not know their motives. It is okay to conclude with "we do not know if this reincarnation happened as it is hard to verify" and leave it there without formulating negative opinions about the people involved.

    We live in an old gold mining town in central Victoria, Australia. None of my family were born in this town but have all ended up here, with a soul connection to this place. Many years ago, when my son was 4, I was driving him to kindergarten and he pointed out a house to me and asked me if I remembered living here, when cars looked very different to the one we had. I laughed at him and told him we had never lived here before but he insisted, saying that was our house. Years later, we discovered that our great great grandfather has been born and died here, and had been a jeweller and watchmaker in a shop in the Main Street, a building that became a real estate agent’s and that I had been in. He had also lived in the house that my young son pointed out. My sister had worked in a doctors surgery that had been a hospital in the old days, not knowing this is where he died. So what my son described was not the life of someone wealthy or famous, and he could never have heard this information from us as we did not know it ourselves. So I believe what my son said, as do the family. The entire family live here now, and I will die here, this is my soul home. Beautiful Castlemaine.

    Well, I can only tell you my experience many, many years ago. My son was 4 years old when he was out playing with neighborhood friends. It was 6 p.m. and I had Peter Jennings on TV news. My son came in and sat down next to me. The Focus on America segment was on Buddhism in America. We were watching and it showed a huge, golden statue of the Buddha in a center in New York. Suddenly my son starts crying and sobbing. He said, "I was nineteen and praying to the Buddha. The Chinese came in and starting shooting us. I ran and was hit in my arm and fell. That's all I remember." I sat there shocked. His speech seemed so adult-like, much less talking about the Chinese and praying to the Buddha. He was sobbing and honestly, I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. But he was upset and my Mom gene kicked in. I hugged him and told him he was safe now. After awhile he stopped crying, then like nothing had happened, he ran out to play again. I just sat there trying to make sense of the situation. We had an incident when he was 12 in a Chinese restaurant .. .the owners were from China. My son started talking loudly about how the Chinese have treated the Tibetans. I asked him to talk quieter, one of the owners was looking at us. Well, our car was one of three in the parking lot. We left and no car. They had our car towed, said they asked everyone whose car it was. No, we weren't asked and I don't recall them going table to table.
    I didn't tell him about the Buddha incident before he was a teenager because I didn't want to scare? or confuse him. He doesn't remember it. It was one of the strangest experiences I have ever had. There is a part of me that wishes I asked him questions, but all I wanted to do was comfort him. There's a lot we don't know. I am open-minded, but I don't have an agenda. It is what it is.
