Reincarnation: Fact or Fallacy?
A Practitioner from Singapore
[PureInsight.org] Supernormal Capabilities - fact, fallacy, superstition or simply coincidence? Those stories of people with super-minds; minds that delve into the past, minds that have the power to move objects and perceive things the rest of us cannot with our ordinary senses; minds that operate independently of the body. Since ancient times, these enigmas have intrigued rational people but only back in the 70s are scientists - the Mind Detectives - beginning to understand something of the mysteries at work inside of us.
Do we have one life only or several? Have you ever experienced that feeling or a sense of "been here before"? According to mind detectives, we have experienced many previous lives in the past and we'll go on being born again, into other forms, until we reach an absolute state. Here are three interesting cases of experts' experience on the subject of reincarnation:
Case Number 1
Arnall Bloxham was a Welsh hypnotherapist from back in the 70s who, over a 20-year period, hypnotized a few hundred people and recorded what appear to be descriptions of previous lives. Do the Bloxham tapes prove reincarnation or can they be explained in some other way? Mr Arnall Bloxham is an expert in what hypnotists call 'past lives regression experiments.' Under hypnosis he can take a person back to the moment of his or her birth, and even beyond that. Mr Bloxham was the president of the British Society of Hypnotherapists then and he was using hypnosis to cure people of physical ailments, like smoking, for instance.
What happens during his experiments on hypnotic regression defies common human logic. His clients could relate, in meticulous detail, lives of people who existed hundreds of years ago.
As unbelievable as it may seem, Bloxham produced over 400 tape recordings of hypnotized subjects reliving their previous lives. In addition, many detailed records, cross references from these tapes, have been substantiated as facts. According to Bloxham, this strong evidence strongly supports the ancient belief of reincarnation as the truth.
One of Bloxham's high-profile cases is that of Jane Evans. Jane's regression into her past lives began in 1971 when she saw a poster that reads: "Arnall Bloxham says rheumatism is psychological." Jane, a 32-year-old Welsh housewife who suffered from rheumatoid arthritis, found the statement incredible, so she decided to get in touch with the man responsible for this poster. Indeed she did, through a friend of her husband. And ultimately got in touch with six of her past lives as well. They were: as a tutor's wife in Roman times; as a Jew who was massacred in the 12th century in York; as the servant of a French medieval merchant prince; as a maid of honour to Catherine of Aragon; as a poor servant in London during the reign of Queen Anne; and as a nun in nineteenth-century America.
The story of Jane Evans and several other examples of reincarnation were brought to light by BBC television producer, Jeffrey Iverson in his book, "More Lives Than One?" In 1975, in pursuing verification of the theory of reincarnation, Iverson asked Jane's permission to let Bloxham hypnotize her again into regression, this time in the presence of a BBC television camera and tape recorder. Iverson then set out to uncover whether she did, in fact, have more lives than one.
Iverson researched the detail of these lives and verified that the details of Jane Evans' recorded regressions were indeed founded on fact. At the end of the book he considers that Bloxham's twenty years of work signify strong support for the concept of reincarnation. He also produced a BBC documentary film, called "The Bloxham Tapes" based on all these materials.

If the world's top experts on reincarnation were to be named, Dr. Ian Stevenson, Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia would be on that list. He has traveled all over the world to investigate various reports of reincarnation and has devised a rigorous test to rule out fraud, cryptomnesia, etc, etc. Out of 200, only 20 cases survived this tough test by Dr. Stevenson to be suggestive of possible cases of reincarnation. Seven of these cases occurred in India, three in Sri Lanka, two in Brazil, one in the Lebanon and seven among a tribe of Indians in Alaska.
Take the case of a very young girl, born in 1956 in central Sri Lanka with a tongue-twisting name of Gnantilleka Baddewithana. Soon after she had started learning to talk, she began mentioning another mother and father in another place, where she said she also had two brothers and many sisters.
From the details the little girl gave, her parents were able to fit her descriptions to a particular family in a town some distance away. They found that this family had lost a son in 1954. When Gnantilleka was taken to visit this family, she said that she was their dead son and correctly identified seven members of "his" family. But until then the families had never met each other or even visited each other's town.
