In other words: It seems little boy James had experienced memories of a past life.
We did, too, which is why we had to ask Tucker on this episode of themindbodygreen podcast.
When do children start remembering past lives?
“Seventy-five percent of them will talk about how they died in their last life,” says Tucker.
“It’s usually during relaxed times, sometimes after a bath or during a car ride.”
Is it wild imagination or past life memory?
Is it fantasy or an actual memory?
“What the child describes, does it match somebody who lived and died in the past?”
But when he does come across a verifiable case, the details are astounding.
(The aforementioned case of James Leininger.)
When do these memories go away?
“So it’s not like they’re permanently scarred,” he explains.
Why do only some of us remember past lives?
It’s another common question: Do we all have past lives and only some of us verbalize them?
Or do only those whoremembertheir past lives actually have them?
What can past life memories tell us about what happens after death?
Past life memories are certainly fascinating, but only a portion of the population actually encounters them.
“I have become convinced that there is more than just the physical world,” he notes.
“The brain died physically, and the consciousness continued on,” notes Tucker.
“This is a hopeful message for people.”
The takeaway.
Take it from Tucker: “It’s not the whole story,” he says.
“There’s a larger picture there.”
