Past life memories may surface in many ways through hypnosis, spontaneous recollections, striking coincidences, recurring life patterns, or a deep sense of connection to a particular historical time or place. This course will explore intriguing accounts of people who believe they have memories of past lives, including individuals who may have been famous public figures, and history reenactors who are drawn to the culture and customs of earlier eras. We will examine the details and credibility of these accounts, review the signs and patterns that some believe may point to reincarnation even without memories, and consider how perceived past-life experiences might influence present-day interests and life choices. Students will be invited to share their own thoughts and perspectives on reincarnation, as well as any experiences or impressions they may have regarding possible past lives. No belief in reincarnation is required but curiosity and an open mind are encouraged.
