I have split the interview’s audio into two parts that don’t match the two videos in YouTube, as I consider it was better to begin the second part with the questions from the listeners. Again, the interview is very interesting and it is complicated to summarize all the points, so I will be brief (as far as possible) and I will try not to repeat topics we already dealt with in the previous entry. If someone wants a copy of the Spanish translation of this audio, go to the Spanish version of this page.

1. Helen Wambach also remembers past lives.
The thing is that at some point Wambach realized that while she was hypnotizing dozens of people in her sessions, at the same time she was also getting into an altered state of consciousness and started answering her own questions. She had been doing this work for six months, when suddenly she heard her deep hypnotist voice say, “Look at the tapestry on the wall”. This woke her up and made her wonder, “Tapestry? What tapestry? What’s going on here?”, as the actual phrase was “Look at the wall”. Without realizing it, she had started to visualize a very bright tapestry. With time she ended up remembering 33 purported past lives, though, according to her own words, only two are really interesting.
Wambach relates this in a very fun way, and I am surprised by the simplicity in the way she explains it, because it is really like that, and I don’t understand how it is that nearly forty years later, people keep having these weird notions about hypnosis, or, in this case, self-hypnosis.
2. Initial purpose of her research.
3. Bob Logg and the importance of personal experience.
4. Debunking myths: famous past lives.
5. Nexuses.
In fact, my experience is the same: your past lives turn up to help you understand certain situations, or some of your behaviors, or some of your emotions. To me it is like a source of information, my own book of life, that I can look up anytime to help me live better my current life. And, most importantly, it is a source that is there for all of us, if we need it.
6. Recalling past lives makes you lose the fear of death.
7. Birth experience.
8. Feedback of her research: spiritualists.
9. Debunking more myths: the population increase.
10. Analogy of the apple tree.
Well, personally I think it is a very good analogy to explain how it is that in our consciousness we have information from other lives and how we can get it changing the focus of our being. But according to this analogy there could be many apples ripening in the same apple at the same time, that is to say, we would have simultaneous lives, and I don’t think this is possible, or, at least, I don’t think it is the norm. I would change that part for: “As an apple dies and drops, there might be another one that is starting to be born and grow, and it is then that we move our consciousness from an apple to the other”. Our memories are always in the tree because they are transmitted straight from the apple to the tree, and this happens constantly, so when this apple falls down, all that information is already in the tree and it will also be in the new apple.
I also like the description she gives about the possible “materialization” of physical reality. In fact, I like it much more than Jim Tucker’s explanation in his book Return to Life, which I have finished a few days ago. This latter is quite a weak and disappointing explanation, keeping in mind that nearly forty years have passed in-between and quantum physics must have advanced a little in this time. But I leave it here because this is a subject I will probably retake in the future.
