Reincarnation and Past Life Regressions

A child in Germany that just learned to talk that has knowledge about the waiawi uli'uli and all its uses in Hawaii might be an indication of reincarnation.

To consider a true reincarnation story the child has to be consistent, and the possibility of a vivid imagination would have to be ruled out. In real reincarnation stories the children are consistent and do not change when one interviewed in more detail. 

Past life regressions, which also point to reincarnation, is when one under hypnosis is reliving events that probably happened in a previous life. I have myself always been suspicious of anything brought up trough hypnosis, may this be in the field of alien visits as part of UFO investigations, multiple personalities or as mentioned here past life regressions. 

Sometimes reincarnation could be attributed to psychic traits in the child, and one need to determine if the unexplained dreams, skills or knowledge are from having a psychically gifted child pulling out the knowledge from a spirit companion, or if it is experience signs of reincarnation.

Traits that are often attributed to reincarnation are unexplained phobias or fears, unusual talents or giftedness, reoccurring vivid dreams or nightmares, knowledge of items, plants, machinery, or a process from another era that could not possible know about. Children knowing things of specific events and personal information from people that lived before them. Searching for items or a person they believe they had or know but you know the item or person never existed. Repeatedly drawing reoccurring scenes, events, people or items that are not a part of their daily life and which they should and could not be aware of.

I would say that when the child openly talking about the life they had in a different time, especially if the child insist that is real experiences that they had themselves and one can rule out an external source like an angel, spirits, friends, family or radio and TV, it is worth looking deeper into the possibility of the child experiencing traits of reincarnation.

Traits of Xenoglossy
When a child show traits of Xenoglossy like spontaneously talking an unknown language this could indicate reincarnation. Xenoglossy could also be indicated when the child is found speaking in a foreign language or with an accent they have not been exposed to. Suddenly speaking with more clarity and with a broader vocabulary than used on a daily basis or show a spontaneous ability to read and write without being taught how to do so.

Sleep Paralysis and False Awakening


This is a three part entry about dreams and astral projection from Nina in Tromsø, Norway this is the part about sleep paralysis and false awakenings, the two other entries are found here: lucid dreams and astral projections.

Part I Dream Paralysis and False Awakenings:
When I was a child I remember my first dream paralysis it was a horrific experience since I did not understand what it was, it felt like if a heavy invisible being had pinned me to the bed, making it hard to breathe, one could not scream or do anything. And I was sure I was not asleep which scared me even more. I asked my mother what this was and she told me that was the "mara", a term used in Norway which the Norwegian word "mareritt" comes from it is equivalent to nightmare, but actually means "to be ridden by the mare", a scary evil entity of the night.

This answer puzzled me and I asked my older brother, which said he sometimes experienced the same thing, and also frequently experienced waking up, only to still be in a dream but believing one waken up. I have actually never experienced a false awakening that have fooled me into thinking that I was really awake. However plenty of dreams that mimic reality which I will tell you more about in part two on lucid dreams.

The point is that something like a dream paralysis followed or combined with a false awakening could make you experience things that feels real but might actually just been part of your own dream reality. Commonly alien abductions, and many paranormal experiences might rather be of this nature rather than the real thing, having this said always remember to be sceptical even to your own experiences in a dream state even if they feel totally real, due to this very nature.

Another thing you might find interesting is Phantomania, or Psychic Paralysis, which is the paranormal equivalent to Sleep Paralysis.

Lucid Dreams - An Alternate Reality

Here is Part II from Nina in Norway, I hope you like her explanations based on her personal experiences in the theme. Most people according to science would live their whole life never experiening a lucid dream, and if they did they might not have realized that they actually were dreaming. With my own reading into this I found about 10% experience lucid dreams fully.

Part II Lucid Dreams - An Alternate Reality,
When I was about 6 I had my first true lucid dream, It started as a dream paralyzis, where I figured this can not be real and refused to give in to the fear of what felt real to me, I focused and relaxed myself opening up myself to the experience to see where it might bring me, to my surprise it made me slip back into the world of dreams but a world unlike I had ever experienced before, for the first time everything was clear, I always had seen the world blurred due to bad eyesight so this was my clue this was different. I explored my enviroment which was my grandparents familiy home, everything seemed totally real, I could pick up any items, I felt the texture, I could smell, see and taste everything there as if it was real.

I decided to explore the home and opened a door that I had never seen before next to the steps, I entered it and found myself in the undergroud part of a mideval castle, it was all lit up by torches that I could actually feel the heat from the flames, and it smelled of musky moss, mildew and wet soil, and since I was still walking around in my nightgown I felt the cold stone floor on my feet. I explored and entered deeper until I got to another room filled with strange contraptions which I later learned to be a torture chamber. I didn't like this room and decided to wake up, at the very tought of awakening so I did, and unlike from waking up in a dream I felt fully alert as If I had been awake and I remembered everything as it was a real experience.


This was just the first of many lucid dream experiences, and I quickly found out I could not only decide when to awake but also control what was to happen in the lucid dream experience. As I grew older I was curious to see if the experience of time was the same in a lucid state and found it to indeed seemed time was moving at the same speed as in an awake state. By the time I was 7 I could enter lucid dreams by concentration, whenever I realized I was dreaming and focused to change into the lucid state, and by age 8 I knew how to enter my own lucid dream state anytime I wanted to by just lying down and focus my breath, look deep at a sorce of light to help me focus and with ease slip into or out of the different levels of dream states.

Due to this I have actually never experienced a nightmare since I would switch it into a learning experience control my fears and focus to solve or simply focus on waking up if I did not like the experience like with a dream filled with violence or too much graphic details into things I dislike.

Projection of the Soul - Astral Travel





This is part III of the entries on Dreams and Astral experiences from Nina in Norway. By age 9 I descovered a new state of dream reality, I found out that switching my focus while in a lucid dream just enough not to wake up I could make what felt like a pain in the chest followed by the feeling of pulling out of my own body as a free spirit. In this state I could float around watch myself or anybody around the house, it did not feel like any dreams I had ever experiened anytime before as I explored I found that I could move around by thought alone, I circled around the room a few times and focused on joining my own body again, of which I would get pulled back into it and awaken alert and thrilled with my new experience.

I had at this point read enough to know that this was an out of body experience, or a astral projection, and found that I could with ease slip into a astral state from any lucid dream state. What I found more interesting though was that I would experience the world around me differntly, one senced things as if they were mere thoughts and one could hear what seemed to be what anyone was feeling or thinking as it was ones own.

As an astral traveler I found I could feel no pain and no danger such as I could no fly in the blink of a second to any part of the world, and when seeing parts I had never experienced myself, when I looked them up they had indeed been there making me belive the astral travels to be more than mere advanced dream states but rather the actual projection of ones soul to travel in the multidimensional world our physical body exists in.
