Product Description

Death is the ultimate mystery, the final passage of every life. But is it really an end, or a new beginning? Countless cultures around the world and throughout time have preached that the soul survives death and goes on to inhabit other bodies. But is there any evidence that reincarnation is real? ANCIENT MYSTERIES uses expert commentary, extensive archival material and interviews with people who claim to be reincarnated to explore this enigma. Discover the surprising role of reincarnation in Judeo-Christian philosophy, and hear from Dr. Carey Williams, author of Reincarnation: A New Horizon. In a remarkable interview, the Dalai Lama who is believed to be the reincarnation of Buddha by millions of followers worldwide explains the Buddhist outlook on reincarnation and the soul. And examine incredible cases of regular people who seem to have memories of other lives. Like no other program available, REINCARNATION is a comprehensive, thought-provoking look at an age-old question that will forever remain a mystery.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction for the general public....., May 13, 2007
This is an entertaining film for the general public that contains some basic information on reincarnation including how the Dalai Lama is chosen, some examples from the bible that are possible references to reincarnation and a summary of one past life regression through hypnosis.

The photography and organization of the DVD is good. For many people, it will be a surprise to learn that both Judaism and Christianity espoused a belief in reincarnation. The film does a good job of surveying various angles on the topic in about an hour.

There are several prominent authors who write about reincarnation who were asked some questions and a brief history of Madame Blavatsky who precipitated an a renewed interest in reincarnation in the West was given.

Overall, this is a rather superficial treatment of this complex topic and I was particulary disappointed that it didn't go into more detail about the upper echelons of various traditions beiefs about this topic. What was held out as a prime example was popular Hinduism. I think this represents a mythic interpretation of something much more profound. I also think there could have been and should have been more scholarly commentary about the particulars taken from various wisdom traditions.

On the other hand, this was only a one hour film and it did raise some provocative questions. However, if you are well read on this topic, you may not find this a particulary interesting film. If you know nothing about the topic, I'm sure you will find it interesting and it will perhaps spark further inquiry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, broad view of reincarnation, January 9, 2007
This is an excellent prsentation with wide-ranging information.
There is also an outline as to how the modern spiritualist movement started and details of how the dalai lama is replaced, telling how the leaders in the buddhist religion go about finding the reincarnation of the former dalai lama on earth.
Fascinating stuff, recommended.
