Reincarnation pioneer, Dr Ian Stevenson presents cases of children who claim to remember previous lives, and people with birth marks and birth defects.
Dr. Stevenson said at the end of his life that his biggest regret was not that his critics dismissed his work but that they did so without even bothering to read it.
I don’t see why that should be his regret. Dr. Ian Stevenson probably did more to contribute to the world in this life than most people do in more than that.
@@jdlambo6926Majority of critics today are a bunch of crybaby Twitter freaks who can't tolerate anything that doesn't appeal to their fantasies such as game and movie journalism it's an absolute joke today
I'm skeptical, but Dr. Stevenson's 2000+ case studies have been the most compelling evidence for any paranormal phenomena I've ever come across. He was honest and followed the scientific method rigorously.
Wonderful research here by Dr Ian Stevenson! I have been investigating reincarnation scientifically for decades, due to my (Australian) early childhood memories of my last life in London and India. No one listened to me as a child, which is why these cases can be less prevalent in non-Asian countries. I have known many children between the ages of 4 (language is developed enough for communication) and 7 (before the left-brain over-rides other brain areas) who had extraordinary knowledge of other cultures and even religious processes foreign to their family's. All little children have innate wisdom: listen to them!
Well, Kerrie, the reason I am revisiting this video is because I have gotten into a rather heated debate about the existence of the soul and the fact that reincarnation is very real. I was regressed at the age of 13 and my past life was very normal. I wasn't a king or a famous composer! I was the son of a dairy farmer in Ireland. I was born in London in this life. Anyway, I won't go into detail right here, but can I just say thank you for investigating reincarnation in a scientific way for decades? Somebody needs to pick up where the great Dr Ian Stevenson has left off. People are so quick to "poo poo" the whole thing but we really need to pull together and get people to open their minds to this factual phenomena. Good luck in whatever you do in this regard. I would love the time to really go into it.
Why are there cases overwhelmingly involve children of a certain age? Why can't mature adults have any "memories" or experiences of "their past lives"? Food for thought!

The fact that this man has dedicated his life to research on something so elusive yet something about which he is passionate is amazing. I would like to see those who decry the speech as "boring" in another 65 years speaking about something more important. More likely, they will be recalling "great" performances on "American Idol". Thank you, and joyful next carnation, Dr. Stevenson...

When my daughter was four years old she told me she had another Mom and Dad, When I told her she had no other parents, she went into great detail about how she had died before. She said, she was chasing after a ball and was accidentally shot by her father. She also remembered floating above her body and looking down at herself after her body died She described what she looked like. She also remembered being a spirit floating over her mother and watching as her mother (same mother) choked on a chicken bone while eating a chicken sandwich, She says her mothers spirit floated out of her body and met with hers.I had not previously believed in reincarnation when she told me about her memories.The details she gave in her account were about things she had no way of knowing about, her description of the rifle for instance. Two weeks later, I myself had my own past life memory of being a little girl who fell down a well and died. Twenty years later out of curiosity I googled the details of my own past life memory and believe I have determined who I was. I believe my daughter 100% now.

My niece who is about 5 years old describes her earlier family (very poor family) in Rajsasthan (Thar desert, northern part of India,bordering with Pakistan). She misses her elder sister, and grand parents. We are from eastern part of India. She talks about forest fire, camels, water scarcity. She is very protective of trees and would do anything to protect a tree. She is absolutely scared of sand storm and says she was separated from her grand mother during one such storm and then one man stabbed her and put her somewhere full of bats. It seems she lived upto the age og 10 to 12 years in her earlier life. She is unable to understand how suddenly she has become a little girl from a big girl.
As amazing this story sounds, I can imagine how traumatizing it must be for your niece. Does she remember Rajasthani language and insisting on meeting her sister from past?
Incredible account Indrajit. Have you heard of the Bishnoi people from Rajasthan? The Bishnoi are sworn, over their lives to protect the environment at any cost. Their courage is exemplary!
It's interesting that many of the people who study past lives/ reincarnation are not the " new-age-quasi-hippie" types. Rather, they are extremely educated, of MD's and PHD's, and from all sorts of vocations. What is equally as fascinating is when they find evidence to convince them of the true nature of our souls, they grab on to the subject with the ferocity of a badger and don't let go for the rest of their lives.

I did a past life regression once, in my "visualization" I was a Viking, I was tall, brawny, brown haired, with a beard, wearing brown leather vest thing, had a helmet.. I was on a longboat with my crew, we reached a green hilly shore.. as we reached it I was stabbed in the back by one of my shipmates ... when I went home I checked my back to see if I had any birthmarks and to my surprise there was ... a light brown elongated diamond shape on the mid-upper left side of my back which looks a lot like another birthmark I already knew about on the right side of my waist. The sword would have surely pierced my heart and other internal organs... a little creepy to think about but this stuff is very interesting for sure
Unfortunately people tend to think it's fantasies and nonsense. If you knew, you could've gotten a lot of information before the age of 5-7, that's when they usually forget almost everything about their previous lives. The best age to look at is right after they start talk until the age of 3. Many children don't remember anything or can't express it, but when they do, it's very fascinating to research.
Considering the doctors remarks on reincarnations where he discusses having different sexes in other lifetimes, makes me wonder if that is why people are born gay?
I started to believe that reincarnation and many other things exist because children were talking about them. Children cannot lie and make up such things so naturally. Their genuine answers convinced me. RIP Dr Ian Stevenson 2007.
I think I was around 8 or 10 when my best friend from a past life visited me. He left before I got to ask him properly who I was like in my other life. I just remember him explaining what happens after we die.
+TheDashawn15 Not really. Hinduism has hell. Buddhism has hell. And christianity also has dying without dying. Jesus came that, even though you die, you will have eternal life. Jesus said "Even before moses, I AM" That is reincarnation and continuity of the self.
in hinduism hell is not eternal but a temporary place where people who have bad karma suffer , it symbolic to any place on earth where there is suffering but after his bad karma is washed off he returns to a better place.
There is reincarnation in christianity it just isn't talked about like transparently. "What I have told you, I have told you plainly because it is given to you to understand. To them I speak only in parables for it is not given for them to understand" - Jesus
I never understood why the western world never paid as much attention to this topic as they should. Over in the east, reincarnation is mostly taken as a given. The western mind or culture has always focused on the external perhaps it's a survival mechanism in the cold north.
I always felt that there is something weird that happens between the ages 4-5. I can't remember anything before I was exactly 4. In fact the farthest back in my memory I can remember is being at home with my mom when I was 4 and going to preschool. I distinctly remember my age and many occurrences in my life after that, but what about before? They say that children between 2-4 are the most likely to remember past lives, and it makes complete sense.
that's amazing. I knew a kid who had very distinct hair color differences in spots that they called birthmarks. makes me now wonder if that is related to a past life! very interesting presentation.
Fascinating Research. I am extremely interested. I found this documentary informative, and some of it I could relate to one of my children. Thank you for your continued research :-)
Paddy Theosophist Thanks alot for that message ! Yes I will definitely have to check out the sequel once I am done with the behemoth that is Irreducible Mind. I have alot of books as of now but very few academically sound works such as this one so I am always keen to get ahold of any good solid works which deal academically and thoroughly with the subjects of spirituality and reconciling it with modern science. Thanks for the recommendations !
You're very welcome my friend. I myself are a major bookworm with a library of almost 30 years of works ever since first reading my fave author the late great Colin Wilson in my early teens. Demonic possession, the "hard problem" of consciousness, quantum physics, the Spiritual realm, and the wisdom of Eastern philosophy, are my fave subjects, and how they all relate to each other. The inter-related inter-connectedness on this plane and other planes of existence, there's plenty of evidence that we exist in a "non-local" universe (which goes towards the best explanation as to why mind/matter interaction works, telepathy, remote viewing, reincarnation and other phenomena, ie the brain is a filter/receiver of consciousness and not the producer of it, what FWH Myers and William James stated more than a hundred years ago but were dismissed as cranks) but despite mainstream science denying this fact as reality they accept Bell's Theorem, quantum-entanglement, and quantum superposition. Btw, I have several of Dr Ian Stevenson's works but the ones that are his seminal works are *Reincarnation and Biology Vol 1&2* which is a little out of my price range. Anyway, I'll quit rattling on now, but just to give you an idea of the keyhole view Science has into the fabric of reality,.....less than 5% of the Cosmos is composed of atoms and of that
My deceased mother came in my dream to see me before going for her reincarnation. The dream was so vivid. Later I was able to confirm it, using spiritual means.
If we did not fulfill our purposes in this life, then God can give us another life because he so loves us. He is the light-love-life and we are a piece of his light. we have an ultimate purpose which is to love each other.
Interesting. I've noticed people tend to remember their past life a bit more if the way they ended was traumatic. Very rarely remember it past a certain age.
Reincarnation or possession? I want to believe the first. When I was in Middle School, there were a few nights where I was dreaming and my sister would tell me the next morning I was "speaking Chinese" in my sleep. Out of the short time this happened, (maybe a week of these dreams?) I remember a small portion of what I was dreaming. I was dreaming of an Asian man in his 40s maybe? The first few dreams were just him with other Asians, talking and stuff - like a normal life. Then the dreams changed. He was frantic! He was on what appeared to be the side of a cliff and there were lots of "doorways" on each of the different levels of the side of this cliff. In my dreams he was always trying to enter doorways. But he was scared. After a few nights of dreaming about this man doing this, and waking up to my sister saying I was speaking Chinese, in the last dream I had about him, he entered one of the doorways and I never dreamed about him again. The crazy part about this is I never looked into reincarnation or the afterlife until just a few months ago. I looked up the Chinese belief of hell (I believe it was Chinese?) And it said that their hell was different entryways - you guessed it! - along the side of a cliff. I read further to find out that they too believed in reincarnation - and that if you did bad - really bad - the worst punishment a man could have was to be reborn as a woman. I am female. And my whole life I was a tomboy and as I got older I had "manly lusts" like my sexual appetite and what not. If reincarnation is true, these dreams as a child and my behavior I used to have explains a LOT.
The hard part I am dealing with is I do also believe in demons so Im trying to understand if reincarnation exists, how do demons fit in it? Can they stop someone from being reincarnated? Are they just here to torment the living? Is "hell" temporary? I ask about hell because of how my dream fit in with what I read about hell (cant remember if it was ancient or modern belief?) So many unanswered questions!
i notice this life thing in reincarnation occurs more w/ asians. I IMAGINED myself as an asian (but i'm not) tbh b4 even watching this content. And in this series the ppl already have an automatic belief that it exists
Everyone talking in the comments about hinduism and buddhism, but did you know ancient europe (celts/germans) had this belief too? and the majority of the native tribes in africa and america? and there are ancient rock drawings that seem to depict reincarnation, but if course thats hard to say for sure.
It is important to note that Stevenson found one case of reincarnation for every 450 births interviewed while in another posting apart from Stevenson, who claimed that in his native Shri Lankans set the opportunity even higher at one in 500 births. The point that this only widens the flirting of after death considerations.
when my son was around 3 years old, he told me, that he-as he was a grown up-was living in the USA in a house with a blue door, and that he was pilot and died by a crash. He had some kind of scar on his front head which vanished year by year......and I, for my part, knew very early that "these people" I live with are not my parents...
i found out about my past life from a hypnotist. not everything was clear but the only thing that im 100% sure of is that i died by a soldier who shot me with a crossbow where my birthmark is. i was killed in front of my past family. its sad.
Good video. Yes reincarnation is REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All Dharmic faiths(Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism) believe in this scientific concept. Some mystic traditions like Gnosticism, Sufism and Jewish mysticism believe in reinarnation as well!!
Whether we believe in Reincarnation or not, we are all subjected to that Law of Nature, like what the Buddha said, the Law of Rebirth. If we don't have this Law of Reincarnation we cannot fulfill what the Master Jesus said in the Bible - "Be thou perfect like your Father in heaven is perfect." So because of this Law we can come again and again here to live a life to this planet and continue when we had stop at our last Incarnation until we succeed unto perfection!
Thank you so much 🙏 I think that is kind of funny that with these cases investigated by Dr. Stevenson, and then Dr,.Tucker and such... with many "hard" skeptics, Occam's Razor seems to work backwards! I mean, they propose the most complex and bizarre explanations as long as they don't have to take account at all, not even for a second the simpler explanation that not all those children are lyers or delusional, and that at least there is something "strange" there that deserves respect at the very least.
it does not alway happen, and also, it usually happens in case of accidental death. Combat can be counted as an accidnetal death, but not everyone will have birthmarks. Dr. Stevenson might studied this more close details, as it so physically obvious with naked eyes and correlated perfectly with cause of death in previous life...
I got a fist sized birthmark at the base of my spine that is very red, and a scattered red birthmark on the back of my neck at the base of my skull. Wondering what the hell would cause that if it was from a past life. LOL.
my mother said when i was 4 or 5 i was a monk cause when we look at the old temple in china on television i said to my mom that i was lived in there and i tell why i'm reincarnation and i still freak out when i remember that story and i always asking my mom a same question "when i was 4 do i said about my reincarnation mom ?" and she always said "you did". because i can even remember ( im 16)
Sub conscious mind is active till 7 years of age. And conscious mind gets activated after 7 years of age, that is why most people don't have clear memories of first 7 years Everyone remembers their past life till the age of 7 but it is rare to have vivid memories
My family is from Laos . If you kno Laos you kno about Reincarnation...but I remember having Past Life Regression dreams as a child I remember having dreams of Falling from the skies & being shot while climbing up a ladder in a War scène ? I remember waking up from à dream like I was possse by à spirit of the past crying & rejecting my own blood relatéd biological parents ...
I am sure DR Ian Stevenson is bussy to make all of us awaike. I personally stuplet over him, looking for the long Island media, cause I just lost a young person to himself leaving this plane and I had questions about why we are here!
Young boy, 9/11, reincarnation of a firefighter. Full story as told by the boy's mother on (and off) a reincarnation forum. Fire in the Soul: Reincarnation from Antietam to Ground Zero.
"Reincarnation", "rebirth" or "existence of previous lives and next lives" is academically accepted by scholars like Dr Ian Stevenson based on the reliable evidences shown in this clip. Some rebirth cases in Myanmar were high lighted here. I think the subject of this clip can't be accepted by the "Believers of Creators". Even though the presentation is reliable and tree, they have to close their eyes and ears on this findings as this topic would turn their religious books to a false references
Dear Dr. Stevenson, have you ever considered adding DNA comparison of both the deceased & the living person into your repertoire of examining cases of reincarnation ? I believe that would be of making the whole matter more credible. Medizinalrat Mag. Dr. Issam Elias. Zwettl/ Austria 🇦🇹
How is the DNA of the reborn and his past-life family going to match? Is the person being reborn with his past-life body? Only the soul would transit to a new life and body...!
I would add something not discussed by Stevenson. Child proteges... I would suggest that they are more viable as evidence of reincarnation than birthmarks. Appearance can be unreliable...or are we to assume that Stevenson was an undertaker in a previous life? I also am reluctant to assume that most of us were pandas in previous lives because of our childhood preferences.
Maybe we can work on things so the next time will be better. Under hypnosis I was reported to say that in a previous life I lived on another planet, Could be.
I don't like reincarnation idea,the whole point of life is to experience, doesn't matter if its good or bad experience, coming into existence over and over just to experience isnt worth it at all

Thats a nice thing to say, unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anybody taking up this incredible guy's life work.
Hinduism: we are one. Buddhism: live in the present. Christianity:burn in hell
+TheDashawn15 Islam: Allahuakbar
+TheDashawn15 Not really. Hinduism has hell. Buddhism has hell. And christianity also has dying without dying. Jesus came that, even though you die, you will have eternal life. Jesus said "Even before moses, I AM" That is reincarnation and continuity of the self.
in hinduism hell is not eternal but a temporary place where people who have bad karma suffer , it symbolic to any place on earth where there is suffering but after his bad karma is washed off he returns to a better place.
Hell is not symbolic, stupid. It's real place like heaven.
There is reincarnation in christianity it just isn't talked about like transparently. "What I have told you, I have told you plainly because it is given to you to understand. To them I speak only in parables for it is not given for them to understand" - Jesus
I never understood why the western world never paid as much attention to this topic as they should. Over in the east, reincarnation is mostly taken as a given. The western mind or culture has always focused on the external perhaps it's a survival mechanism in the cold north.

I always felt that there is something weird that happens between the ages 4-5. I can't remember anything before I was exactly 4. In fact the farthest back in my memory I can remember is being at home with my mom when I was 4 and going to preschool. I distinctly remember my age and many occurrences in my life after that, but what about before? They say that children between 2-4 are the most likely to remember past lives, and it makes complete sense.
It’s when our minds aren’t filled with programs. We come here with a blank memory to be filled through our experiences.
Rebirth, Karma, and Harmlessness may bring this Earth humanity to its senses.
Karma is a myth. The Elite class prove that on a daily basis. It's just a religious invention to scare people.
In a word, riveting. What I liked in particular was the clinical, logical research. Very convincing.

that's amazing. I knew a kid who had very distinct hair color differences in spots that they called birthmarks. makes me now wonder if that is related to a past life! very interesting presentation.
Fascinating Research. I am extremely interested. I found this documentary informative, and some of it I could relate to one of my children.
Thank you for your continued research :-)
Imagine you could remember your account details from previous life and logging in and nobody would believe anyway.
What an excellent University UVA is. The landmark publication *Irreducible Mind* has to be one of the greatest works ever compiled.
Paddy Theosophist Thanks alot for that message ! Yes I will definitely have to check out the sequel once I am done with the behemoth that is Irreducible Mind. I have alot of books as of now but very few academically sound works such as this one so I am always keen to get ahold of any good solid works which deal academically and thoroughly with the subjects of spirituality and reconciling it with modern science. Thanks for the recommendations !
You're very welcome my friend. I myself are a major bookworm with a library of almost 30 years of works ever since first reading my fave author the late great Colin Wilson in my early teens. Demonic possession, the "hard problem" of consciousness, quantum physics, the Spiritual realm, and the wisdom of Eastern philosophy, are my fave subjects, and how they all relate to each other. The inter-related inter-connectedness on this plane and other planes of existence, there's plenty of evidence that we exist in a "non-local" universe (which goes towards the best explanation as to why mind/matter interaction works, telepathy, remote viewing, reincarnation and other phenomena, ie the brain is a filter/receiver of consciousness and not the producer of it, what FWH Myers and William James stated more than a hundred years ago but were dismissed as cranks) but despite mainstream science denying this fact as reality they accept Bell's Theorem, quantum-entanglement, and quantum superposition. Btw, I have several of Dr Ian Stevenson's works but the ones that are his seminal works are *Reincarnation and Biology Vol 1&2* which is a little out of my price range. Anyway, I'll quit rattling on now, but just to give you an idea of the keyhole view Science has into the fabric of reality,.....less than 5% of the Cosmos is composed of atoms and of that
My deceased mother came in my dream to see me before going for her reincarnation. The dream was so vivid. Later I was able to confirm it, using spiritual means.
I'm sorry for your mother's passing. It can't be easy. It isn't I'm so sorry.
@@SwedishDoomGoblin everyone has to pass one day. Always be prepared.
Brilliant logical approach, well presented.
If we did not fulfill our purposes in this life, then God can give us another life because he so loves us. He is the light-love-life and we are a piece of his light. we have an ultimate purpose which is to love each other.
Interesting. I've noticed people tend to remember their past life a bit more if the way they ended was traumatic. Very rarely remember it past a certain age.
thank you for this upload. Like pieces of a puzzle it helps to understand our spirituality
Reincarnation or possession? I want to believe the first. When I was in Middle School, there were a few nights where I was dreaming and my sister would tell me the next morning I was "speaking Chinese" in my sleep. Out of the short time this happened, (maybe a week of these dreams?) I remember a small portion of what I was dreaming. I was dreaming of an Asian man in his 40s maybe? The first few dreams were just him with other Asians, talking and stuff - like a normal life. Then the dreams changed. He was frantic! He was on what appeared to be the side of a cliff and there were lots of "doorways" on each of the different levels of the side of this cliff. In my dreams he was always trying to enter doorways. But he was scared. After a few nights of dreaming about this man doing this, and waking up to my sister saying I was speaking Chinese, in the last dream I had about him, he entered one of the doorways and I never dreamed about him again.
The crazy part about this is I never looked into reincarnation or the afterlife until just a few months ago. I looked up the Chinese belief of hell (I believe it was Chinese?) And it said that their hell was different entryways - you guessed it! - along the side of a cliff. I read further to find out that they too believed in reincarnation - and that if you did bad - really bad - the worst punishment a man could have was to be reborn as a woman.
I am female. And my whole life I was a tomboy and as I got older I had "manly lusts" like my sexual appetite and what not.
If reincarnation is true, these dreams as a child and my behavior I used to have explains a LOT.
The hard part I am dealing with is I do also believe in demons so Im trying to understand if reincarnation exists, how do demons fit in it? Can they stop someone from being reincarnated? Are they just here to torment the living? Is "hell" temporary? I ask about hell because of how my dream fit in with what I read about hell (cant remember if it was ancient or modern belief?) So many unanswered questions!
@@bekindtoothers8070 Dont believe in demons. Reincarnation is a reasonable idea. Demon possession is a stupid idea.
i notice this life thing in reincarnation occurs more w/ asians. I IMAGINED myself as an asian (but i'm not) tbh b4 even watching this content. And in this series the ppl already have an automatic belief that it exists
@@bekindtoothers8070 demons have created reincarnation
@@vishveshtadsare3160 demon is just a concept made by human. There is no angel or demon.
I enjoyed this video, and thought it provided a great deal of insight.
Everyone talking in the comments about hinduism and buddhism, but did you know ancient europe (celts/germans) had this belief too? and the majority of the native tribes in africa and america? and there are ancient rock drawings that seem to depict reincarnation, but if course thats hard to say for sure.
WOOOOOW SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCES OF REINCARNATION 👍👍👍👍👍
It is important to note that Stevenson found one case of reincarnation for every 450 births interviewed while in another posting apart from Stevenson, who claimed that in his native Shri Lankans set the opportunity even higher at one in 500 births.
The point that this only widens the flirting of after death considerations.
when my son was around 3 years old, he told me, that he-as he was a grown up-was living in the USA in a house with a blue door, and that he was pilot and died by a crash. He had some kind of scar on his front head which vanished year by year......and I, for my part, knew very early that "these people" I live with are not my parents...
i found out about my past life from a hypnotist. not everything was clear but the only thing that im 100% sure of is that i died by a soldier who shot me with a crossbow where my birthmark is. i was killed in front of my past family. its sad.
lol coward 😂
My youngest daughter is my great-grandmother.
Good video. Yes reincarnation is REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All Dharmic faiths(Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism) believe in this scientific concept. Some mystic traditions like Gnosticism, Sufism and Jewish mysticism believe in reinarnation as well!!
Yes, that's very possible. Reincarnation often happens in the family. But also across different parts of the world with totally unrelated people.
he has the ring of truth this could be a nightmare to have to keep living on a planet that won't get right
I better see someone black or of color I'll really be convinced
Whether we believe in Reincarnation or not, we are all subjected to that Law of Nature, like what the Buddha said, the Law of Rebirth. If we don't have this Law of Reincarnation we cannot fulfill what the Master Jesus said in the Bible - "Be thou perfect like your Father in heaven is perfect." So because of this Law we can come again and again here to live a life to this planet and continue when we had stop at our last Incarnation until we succeed unto perfection!
There's a movie called I Origins that I believe was inspired by Dr. Stevenson.
Job 33:23-30
talks about REINCARNATION IN THE BIBLE😎
great .i wish i could find out about my previous life.
very interesting talk
Indian philosophy clearly tell about rebirth
Thank you so much 🙏
I think that is kind of funny that with these cases investigated by Dr. Stevenson, and then Dr,.Tucker and such... with many "hard" skeptics, Occam's Razor seems to work backwards! I mean, they propose the most complex and bizarre explanations as long as they don't have to take account at all, not even for a second the simpler explanation that not all those children are lyers or delusional, and that at least there is something "strange" there that deserves respect at the very least.
If birth marks indicate how a person died in a previous life, then some poor guy I was in basic training with got the left side of his face blown off.
it does not alway happen, and also, it usually happens in case of accidental death. Combat can be counted as an accidnetal death, but not everyone will have birthmarks. Dr. Stevenson might studied this more close details, as it so physically obvious with naked eyes and correlated perfectly with cause of death in previous life...
Strange things to consider
Most likely yeah bro im not joking 😂
great video
very true. That was his biggest disappointment not regret. Dr Jim Tucker has been a great successor of Ian Stevenson's work
if this was a boring subject, I would be asleep in 30 seconds.
I got a fist sized birthmark at the base of my spine that is very red, and a scattered red birthmark on the back of my neck at the base of my skull. Wondering what the hell would cause that if it was from a past life. LOL.
Maybe you were hit by a Motar or an Artillery
gape
my daughter when she was about 3 mentioned she had lived before, didn't take too much notice at the time but often thought about it since
my mother said when i was 4 or 5 i was a monk cause when we look at the
old temple in china on television i said to my mom that i was lived in
there and i tell why i'm reincarnation and i still freak out when i
remember that story and i always asking my mom a same question "when i was 4 do i said about my reincarnation mom ?" and she always said "you did". because i can even remember ( im 16)
Sub conscious mind is active till 7 years of age.
And conscious mind gets activated after 7 years of age, that is why most people don't have clear memories of first 7 years
Everyone remembers their past life till the age of 7 but it is rare to have vivid memories
rip, you will be forever missed
When my sister was 3 she pretended she had four parents, although that has faded in years
@ricardo2928 He's almost 90 in the video. Brilliant Man. Incredible research.
Who is here after divyakirti sir lecture
RIP Dr Ian Stevenson
In India philosophy reincarnation was real.
My little tomboy cousin used to talk about the time she was a male truck driver.
thanks for the video
Where is video evidence of children talking about past life ?
Reincarnation.One life to live and many to return to.
My family is from Laos . If you kno Laos you kno about Reincarnation...but I remember having Past Life Regression dreams as a child I remember having dreams of Falling from the skies & being shot while climbing up a ladder in a War scène ? I remember waking up from à dream like I was possse by à spirit of the past crying & rejecting my own blood relatéd biological parents ...
Nobel prize!
I am sure DR Ian Stevenson is bussy to make all of us awaike. I personally stuplet over him, looking for the long Island media, cause I just lost a young person to himself leaving this plane and I had questions about why we are here!
20:10 = there's a case in North America where a boy claimed to have been a black woman (relevant to that part of the video)
Young boy, 9/11, reincarnation of a firefighter. Full story as told by the boy's mother on (and off) a reincarnation forum. Fire in the Soul: Reincarnation from Antietam to Ground Zero.
"Reincarnation", "rebirth" or "existence of previous lives and next lives" is academically accepted by scholars like Dr Ian Stevenson based on the reliable evidences shown in this clip. Some rebirth cases in Myanmar were high lighted here.
I think the subject of this clip can't be accepted by the "Believers of Creators". Even though the presentation is reliable and tree, they have to close their eyes and ears on this findings as this topic would turn their religious books to a false references
Dear Dr. Stevenson, have you ever considered adding DNA comparison of both the deceased & the living person into your repertoire of examining cases of reincarnation ? I believe that would be of making the whole matter more credible. Medizinalrat Mag. Dr. Issam Elias. Zwettl/ Austria 🇦🇹
How is the DNA of the reborn and his past-life family going to match? Is the person being reborn with his past-life body? Only the soul would transit to a new life and body...!
he dead bro
Very good, thx so much for uploading! =)
My son said this to me around this age, he said he had another dad.
I would add something not discussed by Stevenson. Child proteges... I would suggest that they are more viable as evidence of reincarnation than birthmarks.
Appearance can be unreliable...or are we to assume that Stevenson was an undertaker in a previous life?
I also am reluctant to assume that most of us were pandas in previous lives because of our childhood preferences.
I am not sure about reincarnation, but this video is much better than sleeping tablets !
Maybe we can work on things so the next time will be better. Under hypnosis I was reported to say that in a previous life I lived on another planet, Could be.
Yes reincarnation is real. I have seen more than 30 past lifes.
I don't like reincarnation idea,the whole point of life is to experience, doesn't matter if its good or bad experience, coming into existence over and over just to experience isnt worth it at all
I have a birthmark that looks like a knife wound.
great man!
Imagine Dr Stevenson reincarnating again 👀
