What children remember
QUESTION: Masters, I have been reading books on reincarnation by Dr. Brian Weiss and I thought of asking my son, who will be 12 years in January, about any life he remembers living other than the present one. I was shocked and amazed when he said that he always from childhood remembered another life he led. He told me about the ice cold temperature, the work he did on some machine which looked like a rocket, the house he stayed in with a lady who probably was his wife and how they could communicate with beings from other planets. And how a person of authority had visited earth and brought some sample of sand and a plant. Masters was this just his imagination? ~Daisy, India
ANSWER: Souls come to planet Earth with amnesia concerning their previous experiences here. Children frequently do not have total amnesia at first and remember sections or entire lives. When memories are recalled and thought about frequently, they become more clear and permanent. It is only when they talk about their pasts and are told it can’t be true that they block that lifetime.
Your son had a life on another planet, which was very earthlike, where he was a scientist. One of the races’ abilities was mental telepathy, which exceeded beyond the territory of their world. If your son thinks about it he will also remember other lifetimes and skill sets. He has had many previous lives and is somewhat of an historian concerning souls’ journeys.
Almost everyone has the ability to recall or re-live sections of previous existences when under hypnosis, as occurred with Dr. Weiss’s patients. Some can even reach those memories when deep in meditation. If you have a curiosity about your own past lives, try one of the two mentioned methods.
Past-life regressions are a useful tool for dealing with negative feelings that spring up in your life as carry-overs from the past. If you have a fear of heights you can go back into the past life where you fell off a cliff and deal with the fear, understanding that you aren’t going to fall off a cliff in this life. Claustrophobia, fear of water, lack of self-worth and confidence can all be traced to past lives and handled or removed from concern by revisiting them.
