Damaged By Your Past
“You what?!”
My startled outburst flung itself at the man sitting beside me, speaking so matter-of-factly. Calmly he said it again.
“I cut off your head.”
The simple statement had caught me by surprise, and it brought the first clue of why I felt as I did about him.
But my surprise was not for a supposedly impossible event. Rather, it was the abrupt revelation.
I accepted the assertion as a probable truth, for reasons that will become clear, and it introduced another striking example for this factual report of 45 past-life incidents and experiences. Nearly all reveal carryover effects to someone’s present lifetime, including many severe conditioned responses to long-ago mental or physical traumas. You''ll read about my beheading in Chapter 2, The Violent Viking.
All these 45 examples are either (1) from my case histories as a psychic therapist, or (2) related to my other psychic activities or my own past lives, or (3) from firsthand reports of trusted psychic associates.
About half demonstrate forcibly that problems in a person’s present life — mental, physical, and emotional — can arise from situations encountered during more ancient periods. These problem cases offered compelling, observable evidence of past-life existences and their carryover impact, revealing a new area for meticulous investigation.
Among this evidence are the many cures that resulted from my treating such problems with psychic healing after becoming aware of the interfering past-life experience. Further, unmistakable symptoms often accompanied — were triggered by — a person’s recollections.
The remaining half of the 45 examples illustrate and compare the numerous ways that a person’s own recall of the distant past may be initiated and the forms such recalls may take, ranging from unremarkable to bizarre. Several also demonstrate that an awareness of one’s own past-life trauma may have no carryover negative consequence and may even trigger or lead to a beneficial effect.
Some of the examples illustrate a momentary modification of a person’s behavior as the past thrusts itself unexpectedly into the present.
These cases show we are creatures of our own past. Likely we all embody an abundance of past-life influences as part of our normal make-up, just as adults embody characteristics from their childhood. While our genes are busy with the evolutionary aspects of the physical bodies we occupy temporarily, our minds and eternal spirits continue the evolvement of our permanent selves.
Nearly all these cases are from the few years of my greatest involvement in psychic work, centering around 1970.
Intended readership
In relating these significant and often dramatic cases, I have in mind three main audiences:
• The general public, to become aware that past-life carryover may be unknowingly harming them or their loved ones
• Healthcare professionals, to open new avenues and methods for diagnosing or treating various maladies
• Future researchers in this field of metaphysics, who will expand our understanding of human life and continuity
Accordingly, all these narratives are carefully factual in presenting the events and circumstances of the examples, as is essential for professional utility or scientific integrity. However, they are told in a conversational, story-like style that allows a touch of the emotional experiences of those very real people to whom they happened.
Advisory
For any reader, a reminder. Valid interpretations of this or any similar account depend upon
• understanding the specifics of the material presented,
• freedom from unyielding prejudices, and
• competence in arriving at conclusions based upon evidence.
Blindly insisting that humans have no past lives, a denial unsupportable by any evidence, is — by definition — an act of superstition.

About the Book
This ground-breaking book reveals that buried memories from our past lives are often the causes of problems with health, attitude, or behavior — problems that can generally be eliminated by enlightened therapy.
From his experience as skilled psychic and therapist, the author relates 45 past-life episodes that show dramatic, compelling evidence of after-death consciousness of the human spirit and recurring physical life — a reality confirmed by Jesus when he told his disciples who John The Baptist had been in a prior lifetime.
These fascinating cases range from the author’s own excruciating torture during the Spanish Inquisition, to an engaging renewal of contact with a young woman who remembered being his daughter in two previous lifetimes in ancient
Half of the examples demonstrate that such buried memories can cause systemic conditioned responses — often with harmful effects from the trauma of an agonizing death. Evidence includes numerous psychic healings the author accomplished with only his mental energies, breaking the link to the past.
Other episodes point out a variety of kinds of circumstances that triggered a past-life recall or caused a latent carryover effect to suddenly erupt. In many cases, two or more people recognized each other from earlier periods.
Listing 23 of his own previous lives as illustration, the author discusses why we are engaged in this repeating cycle and suggests things worth considering in preparation for your next trip.
About the Author
In the 1950s, while helping a handicapped friend, the author’s verbal probings with hypnosis into his friend’s mind made the man psychic. He later taught himself to obtain psychic information skillfully, and this ability opened up insight into buried memories from past lifetimes, with many being the causes of carryover problems from conditioned responses.
He developed and taught a quick-training course for his psychic sensing method (published in Learning The Psychic Shift), and learned and taught techniques of psychic healing, using only the mind.
For a time in 1971-72 he offered professional therapy and counseling, combining hypnosis with psychic skills. During this interval, he wrote Mother, Heal Your Child, with paragraphs anyone can read aloud to another for benefits of positive suggestion, similar to professional treatment.
His wide experience with patients about problems traceable to past lives and treatable by psychic healing led to this book.
