Return to Life

Extraordinary Cases of Children Who Remember Past Lives

De: Jim B. Tucker

Narrado por: Patrick Lawlor

A first-person account of Jim Tucker's experiences with a number of extraordinary children with memories of past lives, Return to Life focuses mostly on American cases, presenting each family's story and describing his investigation. His goal is to determine what happened - what the child has said, how the parents have reacted, whether the child's statements match the life of a particular deceased person, and whether the child could have learned such information through normal means.

Tucker has found cases that provide persuasive evidence that some children do, in fact, possess memories of previous lives. Among others, listeners will meet a boy who describes a previous life on a small island. When Tucker takes him to that island, he finds that some details eerily match the boy's statements and some do not. Another boy points to a photograph from the 1930s and says he used to be one of the men in it. Once the laborious efforts to identify that man are successful, many of the child's numerous memories are found to match the details of his life.

Soon after his second birthday, a third boy begins expressing memories of being a World War II pilot who is eventually identified.Thought-provoking and captivating, Return to Life urges its listeners to think about life and death, and reflect about their own consciousness and spirituality.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An important milestone of an emerging scientific paradigm." (Deepak Chopra)

This is a must read.

Well written and very affirming. It is very rich in content. I will read it again.

Very good research

love the stories and research. lost me at the science stuff though lol. not sure what the connection here is ?

I think we do!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This book is not just your mystical, airy fairy book. Mr Tucker has done his research and produced some compelling evidence for Reincarnation.

What did you like best about this story?

The stories were incredible but in the last two chapters he provides his theory and some scientific exploration. This went a bit over my head but it was very interesting.

What does Patrick Lawlor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Great Narrator. Just suits this book down to the ground.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Interesting ideas!

The author puts forth some interesting ideas about life, death, and consciousness. This is a serious academic exploration, not a collection of ghost stories. That said, keep an open mind.

Very insightful

This book surprised me. Was expecting an account of children’s past lives; but it goes on to offer explanations using quantum physics and a very good lengthy talk on consciousness. Enjoyed very much. Have every intention to listen to it again
