Some of the most unexpected verification of the material in my books often comes from my readers. They find things I could never locate in my research. The following was from a letter I received in 1997.

I have some information that you may find interesting regarding Annas regression as Naomi. You were asking Naomi for names of towns that she had traveled to in order to help the lepers and other poor people. You noted that upon checking, you were unable to find the names of the towns. But I remembered that I have several old maps of the holy land in the back of my Bible entitled The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, so I checked on the towns. Keeping in mind that the words you wrote were phonetically spelled, when I sounded them out, this is what I discovered:

Bethsharon There is a small town called Beth-haron not far north of Jerusalem.

Ramat In the same basic area is a small town called Ramah.

Grafna Also close by is Gophna.

Bar-el A little further north from these small towns is a town called Baal-hazor.

(The apostrophe in words usually means a letter has been left out. Also, she may have called it Baal for short.)

Abram You said that she pronounced his name A-from. A common name in that area was Ephraim which is pronounced the same way. And there just happens to be another small town in between Gophna and Ramah which is named Ephraim.

All these towns are in the basic vicinity of Bethel, not too far north of Jerusalem. Needless to say, I am most grateful to my reader for supplying this little-known information.

My work as a hypnotherapist specializing in reincarnation and past-life therapy has led me into strange situations and down mystifying pathways. It has allowed me to peek round corners hidden in the subconscious mind where the unknown lies shrouded in the mists of time. I have found that the entire history of humanity is recorded in the minds of people living today, and if these memories were undisturbed they would continue to lie dormant and undiscovered.

Yet circumstances created by our hectic modem world have caused these memories to come forth, often unbeckoned, because they influence present lifetimes in often inexplicable ways. Now that past-life therapy is being used as a tool to help solve problems, more of these memories are coming to light than ever before. People, perhaps for the first time, have allowed themselves to concede that the bodies they live in and the memories of their present lifetime are not the sumtotal of the human being. They are much more than what they see in the mirror and what they consciously remember. There are unfathomed depths that have only begun to be probed.

Since I began my work in 1979 I have found that we all apparently have memories of many past lives lying dormant in our subconscious. As long as we can function satisfactorily in our normal waking states, it is not important to explore these memories. I believe the most important lifetime of all is the one we are presently involved in, and that is our purpose for existing in the world at the present time. We must endeavor to live this life in the best way possible.

Many people argue that if reincarnation is a truth, and if they have lived countless other lives, why dont they remember them? The subconscious can be compared to a machine, a tape recorder, a highly advanced computer. In our present daily lives we are constantly being bombarded by millions of minuscule and mundane pieces of information: sights, smells, sounds, sensory input. If all this information were allowed through to our conscious mind, we could not function we would be totally overwhelmed. Thus the subconscious acts as a filter and a guardian. It allows us to focus on the information we need in order to live and function in our society.

But it is important to remember that all the other data that has been collected is still there in the computer memory-banks. It is never lost, but stored away by a miser-type subconscious. Who knows the reason why? It is all there and can be tapped into. If a person were regressed to their twelfth birthday party in this lifetime, they could recall and actually relive the entire episode. They would know the names of all the children present, and if asked to do so, would even be able to describe the food, presents, furnishings and wallpaper, in detail. These are some of the mundane pieces of information that have been stored with the record of the birthday party. A complete recorded film and tape library exists in the mind to recreate the scene in minute detail. Every single day and event of our life is similarly recorded and can be accessed if necessary.

Thus if all our present life is available to the subconscious, all our former lifetimes are also there ready to be accessed. I like to compare it to a gigantic video tape library: we ask the subconscious to pull out the appropriate past life on videotape and insert it into the memory machine. If we realize the enormity of such a memory-bank, we can understand why it would not be wise it would in fact be detrimental for those memories to be conscious in our daily waking states. We would be overwhelmed. It would be extremely difficult to function if other scenes and former karmic relationships were constantly bleeding through and overlaying on to our lives now.

Thus the subconscious is selective in allowing us to focus upon what is most essential to living in our present situation and environment. Occasionally problems arise when former lifetimes influence the present life. Specific circumstances can often act as a trigger to bring a past life memory sharply into focus. This is the role of past life therapy: to help discover patterns that have been set up, or to deal with unresolved karma that is brought forward and is (often negatively) interfering with daily affairs.
