Living Your Past Lives: The Psychology of Past Life Regression

Rating:
Summary: Past Lives as Prologue?
Review: Based on anecdotal evidence, intuition, traditions, and faith, reincarnation is a religious belief held by millions of people. Therapist Carl Schlotterbeck explores his interest in reincarnation and so-called past-life regression. While no direct scientific evidence exists for reincarnation (the immortality of the soul re-emerging in countless consciousnesses throughout the ages), author Schlotterbeck presents a fascinating study of patients he has assisted who claim to have lived past lives. Abstracts of therapy transcripts are included making this book a very intriguing work. Whether you're a theosophist or a skeptic you'll come away with the impression that powerful archetypes are at work in the human subconscious--and of course there are reasons other than "past lives" to explain what's going on here. However, to dismiss the concept reincarnation without exploring its "hold" on the human mind for thousands of years is to ignore a powerful, ancient philosophy of life, death and immortality. Read it. You'll come away with more questions than answers about life, the soul and eternity.-- Louis Varricchi
