Reincarnation Therapy
By Linda Thompson
Many unknown secrets of this life have deep roots in our previous life experiences stored in our subconscious. The causes of our present life circumstances can only be understood by fathoming the depths of the subconscious and the unconscious. Countless observations prove the fact that whether a disease is physical or mental, its seeds are hidden somewhere in a person's unconscious self.
After all what is unconscious self? Psychologists consider it as a storehouse of the imprints of our past lives. Yogis call it the "Black Box", in which the essence of all our desires, habits and sanskars (impressions) of the past are stored in a pell-mell state. The theory is that an integral part of a person (consciousness or soul) survives each time the physical body dies, and sooner or later takes on a new body (reincarnation). Whatever we did thought or felt in the recent or remote past is still alive in this unconscious mind as permanent memories. It can be said that the accumulated experiences of the past create the unconscious self. If it is full of resentment, loathing and pain then, it is manifested in this life in the form of diseases and problems. The treatment to solve these problems is called "Reincarnation Therapy". "The basic starting point for reincarnation therapy is simple: problems, whether you experience them as mental, emotional, physical or spiritual, originate in experiences that are unresolved, which can be tracked down, exposed and therapeutically re-lived" (Rob Bontebal, Adam).
Reincarnation therapy can also be called Spiritual Therapy. This is an in-depth approach to healing and its perspective is wide and broad. Spiritual therapy is India's ancient method of healing. Nowadays it is a major subject of research for western psychotherapists. Modern psychotherapists like Dr. Brian Weiss, Dr. Moris Netherton, Dr. Roger Woolger, etc have accepted the principles of spiritual treatment. Dr. Brian Weiss found that the reason for any patient's present pain usually lies in the deepest layers of his consciousness. To some extent he was successful in understanding some of the facts of a patient's previous life while delving deep into the personality. Because of this success he came out with a new psychotherapeutic theory, according to which, without understanding a person's previous life, one cannot get rid of the problems of this life completely.
Many of our involuntary reflexes to certain life situations keep creating an unknown fear in us. For example, walking over a bridge, swimming in water, seeing a fire, seeing blood, sleeping on roof top, encountering darkness, being in the crowd, being administered an injection, swallowing a medicine, using an elevator, etc make us uneasy. There is no remedy for these fears. Likewise some diseases like asthma, migraine, schizophrenia, obesity, addiction to drugs, depression, tension, etc refuse to respond positively to treatment. According to modern therapists, these diseases have roots hidden deep in our unconscious. By probing correctly and deeply you may find that the reasons for these reflexes are related to either something that happened in childhood or even in a previous life. So to cure such diseases, it is necessary to diagnose its original cause. Without doing that, with routine treatment the symptoms may subside temporarily but will re-appear when the conditions again become favorable.
If the causative incidents of the previous life could be known, understood and rooted out, such incurable fears and diseases can be cured successfully. Many experiments have been done in this direction. As an example, treatment of a woman named Margaret is very interesting. Margaret was an asthma patient from childhood. No Conventional medicine worked for her. Even alternative therapies were not beneficial. While in the process of finding a reason for her condition through reincarnation therapy, it was found that she had died in her previous incarnation by drowning in the river. In her present life that fear had appeared in the form of asthma. With the help of therapeutic procedures her fear was removed and she got permanent relief from the affliction.
Similarly in another incident a girl named Jerena was suffering from phobia of height. Her life had become very difficult because of it and she was constantly in fear. She used to hesitate entering into high-rise buildings and felt suffocated in elevators. This phobia was not related to any of her present birth experiences but was related to her previous birth. When her unconscious was deeply probed through reincarnation therapy, it was found that Jerena was locked in a wooden box and thrown from the top of a mountain, which had caused her death. This unknown incident of her previous life was imprinted so deeply on her unconscious self that she used to get deeply disturbed by such situations. During the therapy she was made to realize that there is a big difference between the past and present and that her past should not have any effect on her present life; and her fear vanished. After the fearful imaginations of the past were removed, her present life became happy and free from the involuntary fear reflex.
Usually we are eager to find solutions for our health and healing problems through the cure of symptoms. When that does not work we start looking upon all therapies suspiciously. Spiritual healers advocate a meaningful and integrated therapy. According to them the boundaries of your past are not limited to your childhood or present life but could go beyond your present birth and are stored in the unknown self. It has, in its storage, all good and bad experiences of our past life. Good experiences give us happy feelings and bitter ones give rise to bad ones.
The diseases that have gone deep in our lives cannot be cured without pulling out their roots. That is why it is necessary that a spiritual therapist should have the knowledge of patient's previous life. Without that the patient will not be healed completely. According to the teachings of Gita, the chain of our life is infinite. We have had many births before this incarnation and may have many more after this life span. Concrete and clear knowledge of this fact makes a spiritual therapist; without this qualification his credentials will be questionable.
Indian seers and sages had long back developed the foundational basis for this kind of treatment: analyze the unconscious self and make a patient realize his mistakes / misdeeds done in the previous life (or lives) and then suggest an appropriate procedure of repentance for all those sins. Once this procedure is completed, the patient is cured automatically. As this theory has been scientifically verified in recent times and a number of psychotherapists are using it for curing their clients, we should also accept it and be ready and prepared for repentance through spiritual therapy to be completely free from our present day problems and afflictions.
