So here are my personal collection of few honest, basic, elementary questions that should be investigated during regression hypnotherapy sessions:
i. How did Consciousness come into being? This has been asked often, but there has really not been any satisfactory answer. It still makes little sense to me to accept the "New Age" notion that our own souls have chosen to exist. The mere act of "choosing" means that one has to first exist or possesses the consciousness to choose.
ii. If there's something called "The Creator/s", who really are behind the curtain that some call "the Source", "the Creator", etc? Who/What created them? Is it possible to unplug/deactivate them? How? Are we under their manipulation? What are their true motives? Couldn't they create perfect souls with all lessons pre-loaded in each of the soul memory bank?
iii. why the hassles of reincarnating/learning? What is the big picture? Some say the aim is to return to "the source"...Why? And why "me"? With 7 billion souls on earth, surely many experiences and lessons are no longer new and/or "unique". How many souls would "the source" need to dispatch to learn the lesson of say, Forgiveness, Compassion, etc, before it is truly satisfied?
iv. How is it that the population of Earth has grown significantly- more than doubled just in the last 50 years? Where are all the new souls from? Although I am open to the idea that souls could have originated from elsewhere in the universe and not just human-to-human reincarnations, we have yet to hear 50% of hypnosis subjects (or anywhere close) who would have had numerous past lives in forms other than human. Have new souls been constantly mass produced/created instead as suggested by Newton? If so, shouldn't we be hearing quite a number of subjects without past lives at all? Or perhaps, has there been a fixed number of earth souls all along, but we have just chosen this lifetime to come together all at once - like taking the public bus during peak/off-peak period, for instance and we are now living in the rush hour?
v. Are all lives and moments happening concurrently as some suggest? What is the system behind the process? Could it be hacked for us to peek into the last of our future lives before the so-called "enlightenment"? Would this enable us to "collapse" all preceding lives including this one and shortcut to the last? If not, how else can one escape being reincarnated for good, skipping all lessons that seemed repetitious, redundantly and unnecessarily "imposed" on our souls? Honestly, please don't suggest meditation and all. It is not the intention. I am most curious how past-life regressions could really leverage our chances of becoming "enlightened" in this lifetime.
vi. Should past life regressions open ways to learning something instantaneously? For example, couldn't we have and retain a total recall of new languages and other skills, assuming that we lived through different cultures and professions in the past? Could we be masters of all trades, slaves to none in one lifetime?
vii. If (v) above is possible, what is stopping us from learning and being aware of our past "mistakes" too to prevent them from reoccurring now?
viii. The fact that reincarnated souls have their memories wiped off perhaps tells us that we are not meant to know. What are the repercussions of this knowing through past-life regressions? IF there's none, why isn't every soul born with the conscious awareness of (at least) their important past life lessons intact? Most of hypnosis subjects do not appear to be scarred/disadvantaged by the experience of knowing. On the contrary, many are said to have healed their physical or emotional ailment after understanding what happened to them in their past lives.
Let's hope regression therapies will find the real answers to these questions and more soon. Looking forward to hearing some of your inputs....

First of all, let me set the premise...This thread recommends that:
a) If you are a researcher or an interviewer, please, for heaven's sake (just an expression, folks) explore in greater depth into the possible gaps in the field - not merely to prove or collect more evidences that we have lived numerous lives with lessons in each. That's done and we need to move on. Forget the skeptics. You can only lead a horse to water....you can't make it prove it is/isn't water until it drinks it.
b) If some you are planning to have a past life regression done, it would be helpful to add some tougher questions beyond mere experiences of the past. See suggested questions below.
c) If some of you have more questions, please feel free to add to those listed in this thread. It might be useful to ask yourselves: what do I need to know to propel my own understanding and mastery of my existence?
d) If you feel that you have the answers, obtained through past life regression therapy/-ies, to some, if not all of the questions listed below, please share with us your findings (in the simplest, down-to-earth way possible).
e) If you are compelled to quote various third party sources (including sacred/holy books, words of your gurus/priests/monks/imams/etc), please tell us in details your own personal experiences instead that have led you to believe what you read/heard/taught...maybe start that in another new thread to avoid heated discussions about religions/belief here. I am sure some of us will study them with great interest. I would.

Wow!
That was some wall of easy reading blue text! Gripping.
I highlighted this:

in order to ask you if you had sources or places to look for the infrared video work - but I guess you can't.
Your story of your pregnancy was particularly impressive. Does your daughter know that she "was" your cousin? How did she respond (if you told her)?
I agree, excellent thread, S/F to the OP.
I have some ideas on a couple of the questions - went to a lecture once by Judy Goodman, and she addressed why so many are here now - but after having read the entire OP (also gripping and easy to read!) and the responses, I'm inclined to simply watch for now. I might link to some of Judy's explanations if it seems appropriate.
They say we get to choose our parents but that is not quite accurate, we end up with parents that were our children, best friends, most cherished, most respected,etc from our former lives as well as having the rest of the souls around us from past lives explaining our draws to people we just meet or fearful of others that did us harm in a past life.
...but even then, those rare ones do not tell you anymore than you still have a purpose to fulfill and must return despite not wanting to......it can't be fought.
No. I've still not told my youngest daughter she, " Is my cousin. "
I was advized not to unless she figures it out herself, as telling her COULD do her much her emotionally, and if she does recall, I'm advized to NOT even tell her I already knew as that could be very detrimental to her Psyche, as a double whammy so to speak.

This is the question that Judy addressed.
She did mention that souls come here from elsewhere, and that the reason is because Earth is going to be the location of an enormous "shift in focus" that all souls from lots of places want/need to experience.
Granted, this was 15 years ago...and we're still waiting to see the awakening/shift - but I believe it is already underway.

Thank you for sharing your experience and expertise, StormyStars. I am coming back with more questions and proposals that need to be answered/investigated through past-life regressions.
It was interesting that you regressed to the 12-year old Chinese Girl. I can't help but think what would have happened if you had asked the hypnotist to allow your Chinese language skills and some of your past knowledge of China to come through into this present life (while retaining your present ones, of course).
All the opportunities that past-life regression sessions to have always missed! Imagine, entire educational, travel industries (among others) and politics could witness shifts in a major way. Really, who wouldn't want a money-back-guarantee in And would you refuse a certified Pharaoh-reincarnated to guide you through the Pyramids? Has anyone thought about JFK coming back to clear up most questions surrounding his assassination? That would frighten TPTB, for sure.
It would be interesting if you could relate them to past-life regressions.
Have you gone through one?
How are your beliefs (re-)affirmed by the past-life regressions that you (or someone you know) experienced?
I have come across many posts/articles/materials that are along the same line as your points, but like many others, I find them a little too abstract.
They seem to require huge leaps of faith. How do we know for sure they are true?
Could they only be true for some people and not others?
Is it possible that beliefs are like clothes we wear- no one-size/color/design really fits everyone all the time; we tend to outgrow them one time or another?

Thanks for the thought-provoking responses, Oldie48 & Rapha. It would be interesting if you could relate them to past-life regressions. Have you gone through one? How are your beliefs (re-)affirmed by the past-life regressions that you (or someone you know) experienced? I am not doubting your beliefs at all and going through a past-life regression may or may not change your views.

Most interesting post so far. Let me ask you sir, how much of this are you one hundred percent sure to really be?
in-escapable truths
Sounds like something i would say..
I wish I could give you much more but....we have a code of ethics to be taken seriously.
There are many remembered past lives & incarnation where the memories remain once recalled & too many are unable to separate them all, as if one can hear & empathize to every soul. It would become too overwhelming without being strong enough to keep those memories refrained so they don't become too confused with our present lives.
MOST of those events in the past like JFK's assassination, etc, ARE for now, BEST left in the past as somethings could have detrimental effects to all of humanities present lives.
