Your son seems so bright and wise for his age. Cherish him. :)

It may be valuable in assessing how memories work and interact with the brain, but it's completely worthless in discussing whether or not reincarnation is real or not.

tanguerra, I would be inclined to agree with everything you said. I am not spiritual; I merely believe the evidence. So, some way, some how, reincarnation seems to actually occur. There, to me, isn't strong evidence to say it's a perfect and heavenly process... so I do not believe it is. That's...

James is 10 and a quarter now! Does anyone know if he still has any memories or if any more of the story was resolved?

While this is not my memory, a friend of mine told me about a nightmare he'd frequently have when he was 4-7 years old. He would constantly dream that he was on the edge of a very high cliff, about to fall. He said it was more vivid and real than any dream he'd ever have. Even after he woke up...

Star Trek Voyager has a lot of interesting spiritual-related episodes, like Mortal Coil (no afterlife [though I always figured that the conclusion was a hallucination, after all, how could a dead person tell someone else if there was no afterlife? sounds fishy]), Barge of the Dead (afterlife, at...

I wonder what James L. looks like these days. I'd imagine that as James L. gets older, if there is a facial similarity to James H, it will become most apparent when James L. gets to be around 17-21.

Hi Chris, Just to be a bit pedantic, but usually xenoglossy refers to being able to meaningfully communicate in the specific language(s) and not simply recalling or remembering a few words. The former is a skill that is being expressed that has not known to have been learned, while the latter...

It's not impossible, but keep in mind that many problems we experience in this life indeed come from this life, and not past lives. I suggest you try some more to get the eczema dealt with by "conventional" means. However, if you find that it simply will not go away, no matter what, then it may...

ChrisR: Is "papi" a term that you tend to use in your present life, or is it something "local" to the memory?

Depends how much decision making occurs before incarnation, if at all. I have my doubts about "fate" and if we do sort of pick our paths before life, we certainly have a reasonable amount of free will to deviate or to "extrapolate" on those paths.

Generally due to the patterns that we see in lives. If he had a "short" life then he clearly had an unnatural death. It would seem to me like he would likely remember that life. Maybe I'm wrong, though.

Not impossible, but not really probable either.

Hi, Bowser. ;) I'm also 18, without a job, and have had self-confidence issues in the past. I think it's very common for people our age to go through a period of feelings of "worthlessness." However, when I really looked around and rationally assessed my situation, I think I'm better off than...

Karoliina, I don't doubt that babies can have exceptional abilities from past lives, but I also think that babies also likely have exceptional abilities that stem from more "normal" explanations, like genetics. Not remember, past lives are in the past, and current lives make a difference, too...

The problem here is that since the child died so young, there is no way to see if there were the same mannerisms, speech patterns, or anything. I doubt the baby had even said her first word before she passed away. So, we can't really give any more than that. See if your son remembers being a...

This is starting to sound pro-qualia. Reality itself being "subjective" really sounds like a qualia-like statement. Think of it this way: We know "reality" through our five primary senses - hearing, sight, taste, touch and smell (and to a lesser extent, some of our other senses such as thermal...

That's great, Lisa! It's amazing how blunt he was. He sounds like a very mature kid for his age. Did you possibly record any veridical information, or are you fine with him simply being happier, and not as interested in validating his memories?

Carol: That's amazing! Whether it's a past life ability or not, that's stunning and certainly shows our knowledge is woefully incomplete. :) I'm particularly impressed at the ability of her to read "avocado" - although the article was unclear as to whether or not she could simply read the...

It's interesting, but I have a few problems with it: 1) The values seem sort of arbitrary and I would disagree with quite a few in comparison to others. While due to the amount of arguments involved can ultimately make the basic question (statistical significance) not depend on the specific...
