Children’s Past Lives Quotes

“Some of the most graphic evidence that past life memories emerge in dreams is nighttime xenoglossy — speaking an unlearned language during sleep.”

Children’s Past Lives

“The Book of Splendor traces the cycle of death and rebirth, called gilgul, which means both 'wheel' and 'transformations'. It teaches that each incarnation is a unique mission comprising lessons to be learned, commandments to be fulfilled, and deeds to be performed to balance wrongs committed in former lifetimes – in other words, to take care of unfinished business. The ultimate purpose of gilgul is the purification of the soul and a release from the cycle of earthly lives.”

“The murderous efficiency of the Inquisition proved effective. The persecution by the institutional Church has scarred our collective psyche, and it has surrounded us with an invisible fence dividing what is safe from what is dangerous to believe. Since then, people who harbor forbidden ideas have learned to keep their thoughts to themselves. Our cultural memory still carries the fear of reprisal for publicly associating with any occult practices, the use of psychic powers, or a belief in reincarnation.”

Children’s Past Lives

“The past life dreams that we are most likely to hear about are nightmares. Children do have vivid dreams of pleasant and uneventful past lives, but they are not as likely to tell us about them. A dream of a traumatic past life death or trauma, however, alarms you into noticing it. It causes your child to wake up screaming, run into your room, and jump into your bed, whimpering for protection. For children with recurring nightmares, this scene repeats night after night, devastating the midnight peace of the whole family.”

Children’s Past Lives

“The phenomenon of family return — reincarnating back into the same family — is surprisingly common. Ian Stevenson documented many cases all over the world of children who reincarnated back into the same families.”

Children’s Past Lives

“There is no greater tragedy than the death of a child, no greater agony, no grief that tears more viciously at the soul and rips at the heart. When a child dies, parents search desperately for meaning in the torment. They cry in anguish, “How could God be so cruel as to take my child?” They grope in vain for reasons: “What did my baby do to deserve this?” Inevitably they blame themselves, crushing their spirits with incredible guilt: “What did I do to deserve this?” If we believe that we have only one life to live, the death of a child seems a senseless, unfathomable waste. Nothing can erase the sorrow and pain of such a terrible loss. But if we believe that death is not the end, that we live more than once, and that souls — especially those of children — are reborn quickly, we may take solace in the thought that the child will soon be back on Earth to start over again.”

Children’s Past Lives

“Though it is hard for us to imagine, some children cannot distinguish between past and present. These children don’t know that they have died, moved on to another lifetime, and are now in another body. Both past and present lifetimes merge in their awareness, and scenes and feelings from the past overlay their present reality.”

Children’s Past Lives

“Today, however, we are seeing a flourishing of interest in all mystical traditions and a revival of the Kabbalah. The Book of Splendor is being resurrected with new translations and interpretations, reaching a wider audience than ever before.”

Children’s Past Lives

“Unlike ordinary dreams, past life dreams do not veer into a disjointed muddle of story fragments, fluid images, fantastical morphing, or flying people. The story itself is always a coherent and realistic scenario, with fully plausible details and action that describe a believable plot. Even if the dream scenes offer only fragmentary images, they imply a coherent story.”

Children’s Past Lives

“When a child speaks of a past life memory, the effects ripple far. At the center is the child, who is directly healed and changed. The parents standing close by are rocked by the truth of the experience – a truth powerful enough to dislodge deeply entrenched beliefs. For observers removed from the actual event – even those just reading about it – reports of a child's past life memory can jostle the soul toward new understanding. Children's past life memories have the power to change lives.”

Children’s Past Lives

“When adults listen – really listen – to what the children are trying to say, their own understanding of spirit and of children are changed forever.”

Children’s Past Lives

“When we accept the truth of past life memories, we begin to accept our children as souls who have lived before, will live again, and who are here with us for a purpose.”

Children’s Past Lives

“When young children talk about a past life memory, they tell their story by describing what they see in their mind’s eye, what they feel, and by answering questions. But they have neither the maturity nor the objectivity to articulate how the experience relates to their present life. They are too young to analyze the story or to identify what issues from the past are still affecting them. This is where they need your help.”

Children’s Past Lives

“Writing is an excellent way to sort out your own thoughts and open yourself to new insights.”

“I have absolutely no fear of death. From my near-death research and my personal experiences, death is, in my judgment, simply a transition into another kind of reality.”
