Dr. Whitton’s subjects, whose religious backgrounds are as varied as their initial prejudices for or against reincarnation, have testified consistently that rebirth is fundamental to the evolutionary process in which we are enveloped. At death, they say, the soul leaves the body to enter a timeless, spaceless state. There, our most recent life on Earth is evaluated and the next incarnation is planned according to our karmic requirements. For example, one hypnotic subject, whose actions had contributed to his sister’s suicide in a previous existence, chose to reincarnate again as her brother so that he might repay his debt.
