Have you ever wondered if #Reincarnation is real? How young children exhibit extraordinary talents and insights that seem almost otherworldly? Some suggest that these children might bring these incredible talents to this earth from another lifetime. Take Jonah Ho, for example. He plays Chopin perfectly, an astonishing feat for a five-year-old child. But it's not just musical prodigies that make many wonder about reincarnation.

At two years old, #JamesLeininger began recounting details of being a World War II fighter pilot. He described being shot down by a plane with a red sun, symbolizing the Japanese flag. And he knew intricate details about World War II aircraft, identifying a drop tank on a toy airplane. He was recalling very specific and vivid details about his previous life, including his previous name, which was James, a fellow pilot named Jack Larsen, and the aircraft carrier he flew from named the Natoma.

Well, James’ parents verified the details in their book #SoleSurvivor. So, after finding extraordinary evidence that they could not explain away, they now believe that their son was indeed recalling the life of James M. Houston, a World War II pilot killed in action.

Recent research shows that a third of all Americans, including 30% of Christians, believe in reincarnation. America's younger generation being the most
open to the concept.

So, these stories and beliefs across cultures and history suggest that it just might be more of our existence than we understand. Could reincarnation be real? Join me in my next episode of HaveYouEverWondered?, as I discuss the phenomenon of reincarnation with researcher and author Dr. Jim Matlock.

#JimMatlock holds a B.A. in English and a Ph.D. in Anthropology. He is a Research Fellow at the Parapsychology Foundation. He is the author of Signs of Reincarnation: Exploring Beliefs, Cases, and Theory, which provides the first comprehensive look at the belief in reincarnation and the evidence for past lives from historical records, anthropological studies, and contemporary research.
