First of all, I have to say something: I consider myself a scientist, I have no doubt reincarnation can and must be studied scientifically, and sooner or later science will explain the mechanism of reincarnation. But on the other hand, I am extremely critical with current science, or rather with certain scientists too attached to a recalcitrant materialism that today is useless to explain many phenomena whose existence is undeniable. Therefore, I defend and attack science equally, because I have been raised with it, but I am no part of the scientific community. This allows me to speak much more freely, without fear of my colleagues’ critiques or fear of losing my reputation. The downside is no one is going to pay me any heed, not only because I maintain my anonymity, but also because I remember past lives, and as a consequence my credibility as a scientist for many of them is lost. It doesn’t matter, I have already accepted it. As I often say, my hopes lie in the upcoming generations, in those reincarnationists with scientific training that will be able to design and conduct the required experiments to prove reincarnation. If some of my ideas are inspiring for them, I will have achieved part of my purpose.
But let’s go back to the main question in this article:
Can reincarnation be scientifically proven?
“Consciousness could occur at the fundamental level of space-time geometry when the brain stops being perfused. It doesn’t dissipate but remains together by entanglement. So an individual’s personality, consciousness, memory, soul if you will, could be entangled in a quantum sense and persist as fluctuations in the time scale of the universe.”
