[R#4] So How Many Books Are Written By Doctors About Reincarnation? A LOT.


Here's a list of books that are:
  1. about reincarnation
  2. written by physicians
  3. highly rated on Amazon.com
I've only used 30 minutes or so to form the list so this is just a small portion of what's out there.  It's a really tiny portion if we include those written by professors, scientists, mediums, journalists, etc.  I'm not suggesting that those written by other professions aren't worth checking out but for this post I want to list books that examine reincarnation from the perspective of physicians.  Most if not all of these authors/physicians didn't believe in the notion of reincarnation since they were raised in Western culture.

Some might say that these physicians are just doing it to gain publicity. But let's have a reality check, "supernatural" phenomenons are still considered to be a taboo to discuss in our scientific community. And don't get me started on how people look at me when I talk about these things. Although it's not as bad as 20 years ago, these physicians were risking their careers to reveal these cases.  Go ahead and read any one of them, you won't regret it whether you believe it or not.  I've read 5 books from this list after the jump.  Go go go.

[R#3] Book Review - Many Lives, Many Masters


Many Lives, Many Masters is the first book I've encountered of this kind.  I remember it was sometime in 2007 when I accidentally saw the Chinese version of the book and bought it in curiosity.  At that time, I thought reincarnation is nothing but a baseless belief.  You could imagine how shocking I was when I saw the description of the book claiming firmly that reincarnation is real.  Questions started popping up in my mind: "If it's proven, why isn't it on the news?"  "If it's real, why hasn't anybody tell me about it yet?"  "Could our commonsense be wrong all this time?"

This book was published in 1988 when I was only 2.  I only read about a few dozens pages of the book at that time to fulfill my curiosity.  My conclusion was that "reincarnation could be real" but I didn't go in depth since I don't like reading translations plus I didn't realize what it could mean to my way of living.  It wasn't until early last year that I started truth seeking and finished reading the English version of this book.

Unlike the previous book review, I'll summarize the first third of the book and you'll be the judge on whatever you want.  So go ahead and

Dear NDE Skeptics,


This post is for those who doubt the possibility of our consciousness being able to leave our body. (Check the previous post about Near-Death Experience)  It's also for those who do believe it since more convincing reasons won't hurt.
