look my man, your question #1 makes the ASSUMPTION that someone gets reincarnated. Theres no proff than anyone does so that basically invalidates your question. Anyone with an over active imagination or mental disorder can IMAGINE whatever they want. CAll it regression, but it is ALL creative imagination, nothing more. Why dont you just ask can anyone remember life before they were made from cookie dough? You have to first prove we were made from cookie dough. THis question is just silly.

You know what? In India where people believe in reincarnation, it seems to happen very often. Some movies actually has that theme as subject. I think that the more you believe in something, the more you are open to answers going that way. So, as someone say, they are hypnotists who by suggestion seem able to get you there. Sometime, you can also have the impression of "been there" in a total unknown place. Sometime strangers give you the same impression.once again, you could say...

Let's go with zero, since no one has ever been able to substantiate a 'past life regression' with any facts. Sylvia Browne is a con artist and full of **** (see www.*****.org), deja vu is a misfiring in the brain, and kids make up stuff all the time - I know I did at that age. Fortunately, my parents had the common sense to ignore me.
Ever notice how many people were famous in their past lifes? How many Napolean reincarnations are running around today? How about Cleopatras?

i watched a show on children's near death experiences the other day, and they touched on this. a lady on there said that if a child says 'well, i remember when i was an adult a long time ago', don't discount it as imagination. ask them questions, and let them talk about what they remember. i think it's very possible to remember past lives. pay attn to any really, really vivid dreams u have, esp. the ones that are historically based. it may not *just* be a dream. you may be experiencing past life regression in ur sleep, bc that's when we, as adults, are most likely to give up all inhibitions of calling such memories nonsense and actually pay attn to it.

it is very rarest of the rarest occassions. even if u know how it will be useful in the present janma. no body will believe it. it is the work of almighty and one should be honesty and help others as far as possible. but in videswarankovil a place nearest to chidambaram(tamilnadu) some people will tell about that.but chances are left to the individual belief. thats all.

well,i'm not sure whether this is related to past birth or not but at an odd moment i'd this odd feeling that i've visited this place before(that happened when i went on a picnic with some relatives at some countryside;but when i asked my mom whether I have ever been to this place or not,she said no.)And then when we had a car accident,I had this strange feeling that it had happened to me before;i felt that i've already experienced it before....but that is still a mystery to me.

Might be possible thru hypnotism. Professional hypnotists can take people to deep level of inner conciousness, ie Subconcious level. But the one who is getting hypnotised should be willing to take up the chance...............

Sylvia Brown (a guest on Montel,) believes that young children recall their past lives. If you have children, question them. I dont remember any past lives personally, and dont know anyone who does.

Eri is right in all aspects! I was a terrible liar when kid, adults thought I was a miracle, sometimes I could ‘predict’ the future and always successfully – I knew what they expected to hear. Innocent eyes and ‘sincere’ blah-blah would often save my *** of my father’s belt. But I WAS aware I was lying! In my late teens lost interest in lying. As adult I’m apt to believe kids myself.

maybe everybody might know wat their past birth was like...but they r not sure whether it is true or not...or they could have it stored in their uncounsicous mind...Someone being 100% sure of their past birth is least likely to occur...
