"Many instances exist of small children who seem to remember and describe their previous life in another body, another place, and with other people. These memories emerge usually shortly after these children begin to talk"

- Stanislav Grof

About this Quote

This quote by Stanislav Grof recommends that there are many cases of kids who recall details of a previous life. These memories frequently appear shortly after the kid starts to talk, and involve a various body, place, and individuals than the ones they are presently coping with. This suggests that reincarnation might be a real phenomenon, and that some individuals might carry memories of their previous lives with them into their present life. It is possible that these memories are reduced in adults, but remain accessible to kids due to their lack of preconceived notions and beliefs. This quote highlights the importance of listening to kids and taking their memories seriously, as they might be able to provide insight into the mysteries of life and death.
