The Reincarnation Research of\u00a0Ian Stevenson, MD<\/h1>\n
http:\/\/www.iisis.net\/index.php?page=semkiw-ian-stevenson-reincarnation-past-lives-research<\/a><\/p>\n A Presentation for the Society for Scientific Exploration (SSE)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Most of\u00a0Stevenson’s cases come from Asia, India or other areas where the doctrine of reincarnation is accepted. In locations where reincarnation is not an accepted belief system, it is thought that parents inhibit a child\u2019s expression of past-life memories. The childhood cases studied by Ian Stevenson have a common pattern, marked by the following features:<\/p>\n 1<\/strong>. <\/strong>As soon as the child can communicate, the child starts to describe a previous lifetime<\/strong>. Often, the child declares that his or her name is different from the name given to the child by its biologic parents. The child insists that the current family is not its true family, but that his or her real family lives in a different village or town. The child remembers the names of various family members and geographic locations from the past lifetime. Physical features of the past life house and neighborhood may be recalled.<\/p>\n 3. Based on information provided by the child to the biologic family, the child\u2019s family from the prior incarnation is eventually identified<\/strong>. When the child meets this family for the first time, the child is able to identify family members by name or by relationship. The child often knows family secrets that only members of the prior family would know. As a result, the family from the past lifetime often accepts the child as the reincarnation of their deceased relative.<\/p>\n The biologic parents of the child in the current incarnation often fear that the child will leave them for the family from the prior incarnation, as the mutual bond between the child and past life family becomes so strong. This fear turns out to be unwarranted, as the bond between the child and the contemporary parents endures. A long-term relationship, though, typically ensues between the child and family from the prior lifetime.<\/p>\n 4. Personality traits, personal preferences, and habits often persist from one incarnation to another<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 5. Gender\u00a0usually stays the same<\/strong>.\u00a0 In 90 percent of Dr. Stevenson\u2019s cases, the child returns assuming the same sex as in the past lifetime. Thus, in ten percent of cases, gender is reversed from one lifetime to another. The observation that gender only changes in 10 percent of reincarnation cases can bring insights on homosexuality, transsexuallism and gender identity problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n 6. Physical appearance is similar from one lifetime to another<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n In his book, Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect<\/a>, Dr. Stevenson advised that researchers systematically study \u201cfacial resemblances between subjects and previous personalities.\u201d<\/p>\n To review other Stevenson case with similar appearance, go to: Ian Stevenson, MD Reincarnation Cases with Physical Resemblance<\/a><\/p>\n 7. Relationships are renewed through reincarnation<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n As noted above, Stevenson cases that demonstrate physical resemblance involves Burmese twins<\/a>, who were sisters in their past lifetimes.\u00a0 They were part of a study involving 31 sets of twins<\/a>, whose past lives were objectively validated. In 100% of these cases, the twins had significant past life relationships, concretely demonstrating that souls plan lifetimes to be reunited with loved ones through reincarnation.<\/p>\n Society for Scientific Exploration<\/strong><\/p>\n I also would like to share that I had the opportunity to visit Dr. Stevenson at the Univeristy of Virginia at Charlottesville in the year 2001.\u00a0 He was a very gracious host and he\u00a0spent an entire day with me.\u00a0 I was very honored that at the conclusion of my visit, he offered to sponsor me for membership in the Society for Scientific Exploration<\/a>, an academic organization that he co-founded. I did join the SSE and I highly recommend this organization.<\/p>\n The world owes a great debt to Dr. Stevenson for the important work he did over his long career.\u00a0 IISIS hopes to build upon his contributions and as a gesture of respect and acknowledgement, a posthumous\u00a0 IISIS Award<\/a> has been given to Dr. Stevenson. Reincarnation research continues at the University of Virginia under the guidance of Jim Tucker, MD<\/a>.<\/p>\n It should be noted that Dr. Stevenson wrote in a very academic style as his target audience was fellow scientists.\u00a0 On the IISIS website, his past life cases are presented as reincarnation stories<\/strong> to make his academic work easier to understand. For those interested in appreciating the scientific rigor of his research<\/strong>, such as his use of multiple witnesses to establish corroborated testimony, please refer to the original reports written by Dr. Ian Stevenson.<\/p>\n Web Site: University of Virginia, Division of Perceptual Studies<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Go to:\u00a0Advances in Reincarnation Research: A Tribute to Ian Stevenson, MD, by Walter Semkiw, MD, A Presentation for the Society for Scientific Exploration (SSE)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Go to: Independently Derived Reincarnation Cases, featuring the Past Life Research of Ian Stevenson, MD<\/a><\/p>\n Go to: Ryerson-Semkiw Celebrity & Historic Figure Reincarnation Cases<\/a><\/p>\n Go to: Reincarnation Cases: Alphabetical<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u091a\u093e\u0930 \u0938\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u093e \u092c\u091a\u094d\u091a\u093e \u0938\u0941\u0928\u093e \u0930\u0939\u093e \u0939\u0948 \u092a\u0942\u0930\u094d\u0935 \u091c\u0928\u094d\u092e \u0915\u0940 \u0915\u0939\u093e\u0928\u0940 \u0938\u0940\u0924\u093e\u092e\u095d\u0940, \u092c\u093f\u0939\u093e\u0930… more of the University of Virginia Division of Perceptual Studies<\/h1>\n

Dr. Ian Stevenson, MD, who died in 2007, served as Chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at the\u00a0University of Virginia, School of Medicine. \u00a0He was also honored as the Carlson Professor of Psychiatry at that institution.\u00a0 For forty years, Dr. Stevenson investigated children who spontaneously remember past lives that could be factually validated. \u00a0He chose to only study children as he reasoned that children were unlikely to fabricate past life memories.\u00a0 In total, Dr. Stevenson studied almost 2500 children who reported past life memories.\u00a0 In approximately 1200 of these cases, Dr. Stevenson was able to objectively validate the child’s past life memories.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.iisis.net\/uploads\/images\/2%20Indept%20Cases\/05%20Monsour\/200Monsour.JPG\")
2. The child remembers details of its death in the prior lifetime<\/strong>. In approximately 50 percent of Dr. Stevenson\u2019s childhood reincarnation cases, a violent or premature death occurred in the previous lifetime. Dr. Stevenson has found that individuals who died of traumatic wounds, such as bullet or knife wounds, often are born in a subsequent incarnation with birthmarks or scars that mirror the wounds incurred in the past lifetime. In the contemporary lifetime, the child may have a phobia related to the cause of death in the past life.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.iisis.net\/uploads\/images\/2%20Indept%20Cases\/04%20Stevenson\/3%20Ian%20Stevenson%20Twin%20Study.JPG\")
Stevenson cases show that physical appearance can remain the same from one incarnation to another. Two cases in particular dramatically demonstrate how facial\u00a0features can remain consistent from one lifetime to another.\u00a0\u00a0Ian Stevenson studied Suzanne Ghanem<\/a> and Daniel Jurdi<\/a> in the late 1960’s,\u00a0when they were small children.\u00a0 Photographs of these individuals from their prior incarnations were available.\u00a0 Stevenson revisited Suzanne and Daniel in 1998 and found that\u00a0these two people, now full grown adults, had the same facial features as in their past incarnations.\u00a0\u00a0These cases were published in Tom Shroder’s book, Old Souls<\/a>. Two other Ian Stevenson reincarnation cases, in which photo comparison’s are available (and provided to the right) that demonstrate similar facial features involve: Burmese Twins<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.iisis.net\/uploads\/images\/2%20Indept%20Cases\/04%20Stevenson\/Stevenson%20Columns.jpg\")
