Past-Life Regression is
a type of technique that invokes hypnosis to recover what practitioners believe
are memories of past lives or incarnations…skeptics regard them as some type of
delusion or fantasy conjured up by the ‘subject’ but there are many who take
this very seriously...the technique that is used during a session or sessions
of past-life regression and it involves the subject answering various questions
posed to them while they are hypnotized to reveal their identity and events of these
supposed past lives...some leave the professionals and sessions out of it and
claim on their own that they have had these ‘regressions’…critics say that the
use of hypnosis and suggestive questions can leave the subject likely to speak
of false or widely distorted memories…and for every subject with a story to
tell, there is a skeptic around the corner who immediately discounts their
tale…it would be improbable that a subject could recall every detail of these
experiences, hence the skeptics find these experiences to be imagined or
confabulated…the Chinese numerologists
among us use the Buddhist/Taoist text called the Three Lives Book…some teachers
of Eastern beliefs claim to be able to use siddhi or abhijna abilities to
regress past lives…and if we have past lives, we must surely have future lives.
