"Hmm! I feel that you are being warned of impending danger."
"I think he harmed you in that life or maybe you managed to harm him."
"You need to get the whole story from Sanya."
"I think, if we keep waiting for the information to come through dreams, it will take quite some time."
"We need to explore other avenues to get this information."
"I want to meet your psychiatrist."
"Now you sleep, your Dadi ji will stay with you so that you do not feel alone."
Saying this, her Dinesh requested her Mira to sleep on the other side of the bed.
Bidding both good night, he left the room shutting the door behind him.
Tania went to sleep without any thoughts about dreams, as she was not alone. Her Dadi ji slept on the other side of the bed, to keep her company.
Meanwhile, Mr. Dinesh Sharma, Tania's Dada ji, could not sleep. He had returned to his room leaving behind his wife so that Tania would not feel alone and that she would not drift into another one of her past life dreams.
He was in deep thought as he paced the floor of his bedroom. Sleep had flown from his eyes. He was worried about his granddaughter.
"Yes, we need to visit a psychiatrist tomorrow," he thought out aloud.
"Tania is having a lot of stress and is frightened after seeing her father of this life being the father of a previous life."
"On top of that her father of the previous life being threatened with death by her paternal uncle of that life who is her maternal uncle in this life."
"Then there is her mother and brother being murdered in the previous life due to an inflicted ailment. If that is so, then maybe the death of her parents in this life were perhaps not by accident..... but made to look like an accident."
"It is not right to be suspicious about someone being a murderer but one can never tell. Sometimes the innocent looking as per our perception have no reason to kill, but as per their own perception, they feel the victim(s) have no right to live."
"A good psychiatrist will be able to probe her mind and find out what is going on in her head. She cannot be making up these stories, that is definite."
"If he cannot find out then we need a hypnotist who can find out what is troubling her. If he is aware and can practice 'Past Life Regression' (PLR), then nothing like it."
"As per our belief in rebirth, some people do remember their previous birth till the age of 5 years. It is as if the curtain has not closed properly. They start to forget after they cross five years of age."
"However, there are certain cases when such people do start to remember about their past life after a certain incident which acts as a trigger point. It can commence when one visits a place which feels like a place already visited. It is like a déjà vu."
"These things do not matter much as past life comes slowly and does not interfere in the present life."
"However, in Tania's case there is a different angle. She had been seeing a few forts and temples. Her interest in India could be due to the fact that she is half Indian but then these dreams do indicate something else."
The inferences that can be drawn can be as follows:-
Her dreams are warnings about what is likely to happen in the imminent future.
Her dreams are trying to tell her what had happened to her in her previous life.
Her dreams are trying to tell her to uncover a secret like a torture and/or a murder which had taken place but no one got to know about it.
"I will take Tania to India and then to Rajasthan to see the ruins of Kalibangan, so that she can get the feel of that area where she had lived in her past life."
"We need to move back to India after a visit to the psychiatrist. The sooner we move back the better."
"Igor, her maternal uncle, is not what he seems. He is a smooth talker and that is all. He is full of meanness, ready to harm another to get benefit for himself. He is like an elephant who has two sets of teeth. One set to show the world e.g. the pair of tusks, and another set to eat which is a hidden set of teeth."
"Before I sleep, I will read up on what is this Past Life Regression. When did it become famous and how psychiatrists are using it to help their patients."
Mr. Sharma took out his mobile and started surfing the net.
He started reading a few articles and this is what he found and understood:-
Past life regression is a technique that uses hypnosis to recover memories from the patient's previous lives. According to the therapists who practice past life regression, many a mental health issues that are experienced by the patients could be due to a traumatic experiences of their past lives. Hence, the practitioners use hypnosis to take the patients back in time also called regression. The regression could be when the patient was about 5 years of age, when the patient was being born with the present body, when the patient was in the womb of his mother or before the patient got the present body when he/she was just a soul or when he/she had a body from a previous life or lives.
Thus, the practitioners are of the opinion that various mental disorders can be treated by visiting the events that the patient went through before he or she was born in this life.
Practicing psychiatrists reject this hypothesis. However, there are some famous practitioners who believe in it and have included it in their medical practice as a therapeutic technique. The most prominent is the psychiatrist, Dr. Brian Weiss. He has written a number of bestsellers on the subject. He recommends hypnosis for patients, in order to overcome their phobia. Dr. Weiss believes that the phobia go back to experiences from previous lives.
He strongly feels that by revisiting those experiences through hypnosis, the patient will be able to confronts his/her fears, and ultimately, becomes desensitized to his/her original fears. He had encountered patients that gave details of their past lives, Dr. Weiss's did not believe in reincarnation / rebirth, but he started to believe in reincarnation and the efficacy of past life regressions, not due to some religious beliefs, but because evidence from his medical practice led him to it.
