Holistic Healing or Alternate therapies are fast gaining a place in the hearts of many Indians now. Many of the alternate therapies like Homeopathy, Ayurveda and Naturopathy originated from India and found their place in the whole world when they worked their way through many diseases where slow yet steady healing was required. Now, thanks to a TV Show that a leading TV Channel has started a few days back, the awareness is spreading to the Indian Audience that Past Life Regression Therapy(PLRT)
Past Life Regression is a widely known and practiced therapy in the west and was made popular through a series of books by a few authors out of which “Many Lives, Many Masters” by Dr. Brian Weiss is the most popular and simplest to relate to and understand how this therapy works. It is the story of how he accidentally gives a command to a client he had been treating fruitlessly for 18 months for various fears and phobias to go to the root of her problems and she goes into a past life. She did find that she had taken 81 births on this planet and could recall 16 complete lifetimes of hers that slowly released all her blocked energies and transformed her life.
There has been a lot of research in this area by various people like Dr.Brian Weiss, Dr. Michael Newton. Dr. Roger Woolger, Andy Tomlinson and others. There have been books published on records of children who have been able to recall their past lives while being below the age of 5 and even found their past families. Also, there have been accounts of people finding and verifying details of their past families or their death records from past lives. Sometimes, people during regression are said to speak those languages fluently, which they have not even heard in their current lives. There is a dearth of books available on near death experiences of people where they are pretty much in consensus about them being received by a light being and floating above their bodies.
Who should go in for past life regression therapy is a good question. Well, we asked Minal Arora who is a past life regression therapist based out of Delhi. She claims that there can be three kinds of people who will want to go through PLR. Firstly, those who are simply just inquisitive to find out if it’s real. Secondly, those who have situations like relationship issues, depression, asthma, unexplained pains, fears, phobias or extreme emotional situations, in which case it can be quite helpful. Thirdly, those who have a particular life situation that they feel is challenged/offbeat, like they have a deformity in the body or they meet with an accident and get into a dependent state or they never married or anything that is different from conventional and they would like gain an insight as to what made them choose that challenge in this life. All three kind of people will be able to experience past lives but Minal mentions that mostly the category 1, will slowly realize the issues deep inside which they didn’t share coming up and them falling into the second or third category sooner or later. “All those who get drawn to Past Life Regression are guided because there is something about their life that will get resolved and the time is right” she says.
Minal recently moved back from Singapore and while she was still discovering as to how to generate the awareness of her practice of PLRT in Delhi, this TV show made her life easier. In real, a regression session with her she mentions, takes a couple of hours and can go much beyond what is shown on TV, yet, she thinks the show is great since the purpose is to make people understand that they can find their answers and its all real and they are doing a favor to all those who never knew there was a way.
India is a great country with a very rich heritage. Past Lives have been a part of the normal conversation in many religions throughout and the karma theory of “we sow shall we reap” has been widely accepted by people. PLRT, since it comes across more like a instant therapy than the slow healing processes that people are used to in the holistic sphere, creates a lot of excitement and doubts to it’s authenticity. Finally, as they say, the best way to know the truth of anything is to live it. It’s creating a lot of waves in the country and a lot of people are approaching therapists like Minal to get their regression done and to see if their lives could also undergo transformation using this technique.
