Past Life Regression - Myth or More?

When someone describes the details of an existence whilst experiencing past life regression, is it really a real and previous life or is it just the imagination? This dilemma has been occupying many minds ever since hypnosis has been used.

There are many documented recollections of Hollywood actors and actresses who have undergone past life regression and who have described being particular noted personalities from history. It has been interesting that these actors and actresses have described being for example, Cleopatra or a personality during King Arthur's reign or more. You may conclude that the Hollywood actor or actress's ego, having being used to fame and adoration, would want the same for their past life experience. You might also conclude that they are therefore consciously wanting a famous and renown past life as opposed to recalling the life of an 'ordinary Joe'.

On the other hand, therapists who use past life regression or healing as a therapy tool may argue that, past lives due have parallel connections to current lives. This being the case, it would not be surprising to discover that someone who is well known today, would also have had a past life where they were also well known.

Cynics would ask for more proof or course to substantiate the recollection and detail of a past life. Although many past lives cannot be researched because the life being recalled cannot be traced, there have been some notable exceptions.

These exceptions include the person who experiences a past life regression not only recalling in detail that past life but giving clear evidence of a connection. For example, a person who let's say is English and whose only language is English. Yet when experiencing a past life, starts to talk in Spanish. To further fascinate not only does he speak in Spanish but he speaks using the type of Spanish spoken during that past life's era and not using modern Spanish.

I believe it is clear that some recollections may be just the imagination bringing something forward for therapeutic gain. Yet, it is impossible to ignore the cases where past lives can be traced and when specific evidence of a connection, such as the Spanish language experience given above.

Whatever you believe about past life regression, whether it is a myth or more, it can be a fascinating experience to enjoy.
