Akashic Record Reading vs Past Life Regression

Back in December, I had a chance to have a hypnotherapy for past life regression from a therapist who took workshops with Brian Weiss. As you know, I read people’s Akashic Records that often involves looking into their past lives, so this was quite an experience.

Which is a better way to learn about your past life, past life regression therapy or Akashic Record Reading? I think there are pros and cons to both approaches.

Difference of your investment

With hypnotherapy, you need to be with the therapist real time, either physically in her office or talking with her over the phone. And one session may or may not get to the core of the issue — in my case, she could regress me only to my childhood, not my past life. She acknowledged this is quite typical, that you’d need several sessions to go back to your past lives. So you will be investing significant amount of your time and money with past life regression therapy.

With my Akashic Record Reading, I don’t need my clients to be with me when I do the actual reading so I do it by myself. I have certain criteria for the first comprehensive profile reading. I check if major energetic issues such as curses, spells, contracts, etheric implants, negative entity involvement, chakra damages, etc. etc. are in the client’s Akashic Records, and when I find any, I go back and see when and how it started. It may or may not stem from past lives. I gather all the relevant information, write the report, and then set up the phone session so that I can explain my findings to my clients. My actual work takes one to several hours, but the phone session is about 40 to 50 minutes. (I don’t charge by the time because I believe the value of the reading is in its accuracy and usefulness.)

Difference of directness of the past life experience

So I myself didn’t get to my past life in this hypnotherapy session, but if I did, the experience would have been very direct, as described in the books by Brian Weiss and Michael Newton. On the other hand, my clients of Akashic Record Reading don’t directly experience their past lives. Some start recalling their past lives using my reading as a cue, but that is not part of my service.

I think this is a significant difference, for better or worse. Let me explain by example. In one of my past life, I was persecuted. It was a time of religious conflicts, and I was demanded to either change my faith or die. I sticked to my belief, which resulted in traumatic death that caused some energetic issues.

I never consciously remembered this past life, but I could observe the effects. For instance, even though I was comfortable in public speaking when the audience was up to about 100 (I used to be a teacher), I got really nervous and almost scared when the crowd was larger. And I really HATED being held down even in horseplay.

In Akashic Record Reading, the past life experience is indirect. You just hear me explain what happened and how it’s affecting you today.

In past life regression therapy, the past life experience is direct. You would recall what happened in a dramatic, immediate way.

I guess there is something about vivid recollection. For one, you would have less doubt. With the indirect experience of Akashic Record Reading, the only way you recognize it as true is your feeling of resonance.

So if you want to hear the roaring scream of the thousands of crowd as you look down at them from the stage, or being tied to the stalk, you’d want hypnotherapy. If you just want the skinny of the critical past life experiences, choose Akashic Record Reading.

Difference in clearing work

Both the past life regression and my Akashic Record Reading aim to clear the energetic issues that affect the clients to this day. (There seem to be Akashic Record reader who only read the Akashic Records and don’t do clearing, so please make sure about this point if you are interested in getting a reading.) The way of clearing, however, is different.

My hypnotherapist explained that her clearing comes from the understanding of the past life. For example, when you understand that your fear of the big crowd is caused by the persecution in past life, you understand that was only in the past. You are living in the now and no one is after you to persecute you. So please feel relieved.

In my Akashic Record Reading, I do specific clearing work. The work depends on the kind of energetic issue, but typically, I get my clients involved by assigning them homework. It’s a simple work, but works very well.

Difference in credibility

Professional hypnotherapists are usually trained in the conventional psychotherapy as well. I understand this provides a sense of assurance to some people. With Akashic Record Reading, you are dealing with a psychic — there is no publicly accredited license.

In both cases, you might want to read the testimonials the practitioner has on their website, or even better, talk with someone who has worked with the practitioner you are considering to work with.

Freedom From The Fear Of Death

Is the fear of death interfering your enjoyment of life?  Do you think you’d live so much more courageously and fully if you could be free from the fear of death?  Even if you are afraid of even talking about death, please stay around.  I can show you why you don’t need to be that scared.  (photo by sirwiseowl)

My first memory from age 15 months about death

My very first memory is from a day when I was 15 months old. For a long time, I thought this happened much later in my life, but my mother confirmed the date because that morning, she took me to the periodic checkup and she remembered the event in the afternoon, too.

(I guess we discredit the babies’ ability a lot. Just because they can’t explain things in words doesn’t mean they don’t understand nor remember. I’m not surprised if someone remembers the day he or she was born or even earlier.)

I remember I was wearing a dress. My mother was one of those old-fashioned people who would dress up even the small kids when she was to go “out” — meaning going outside of the everyday range of our lives. So, even though I usually wore comfortable cotton pants and shirts, that day I was wearing a dress. I hated it. Even worse than the dress were what I was forced to wear on my little feet. I had patent leather shoes and white socks with nylon lace around the ankle. The lace irritated my skin.

My mother and I were somewhere very crowded. There were huge vehicles, much bigger than the cars I was used to see around my place. They roared and shook the ground, and I was scared. (My mother later told me we went to the train station. Those were buses and industrial trucks.) Many many people moving around.

Death as separation

I didn’t quite understand what was going on. What I knew was that I didn’t want to cross the road. I squatted on the sidewalk. (This is why I remember my socks so well.) Now here is the weird part. It wasn’t like my mother was trying to kill both of us (she wanted to visit her mother, who lived in another city), but somehow I though of death while watching those traffic and sitting on the sidewalk.

I knew, right then, death was about separation. “Once we cross over to the other side, there is no coming back.” I thought, and the very sense of distance and the irreversible nature of the change dazzled me. For a one-year-old, that was a pretty good understanding of death, I think. (This may be my first channeling experience.  That is, the understanding came from the spiritual plane.)

The physical changes such as not breathing or the heart not beating are superficial signs of death. Death is about moving on to another side of existence — to “cross over”.

Double standard of death in organized religions

Much later in my life, I had this dream about death that had the joyous sense of going home. In that dream, death was a completion of this lifetime that could be accepted with peace.

Death of a loved one is sad because it is about separation. We lose them – as they were in the physical form. Very sad and we do ourselves service by spending time in mourning.

However, it is important to note that death is not a punishment. Gosh, if death was a punishment, the whole life is condemned. It’s like running into a 100% certain catastrophe! And some religions teach you can buy salvation from this catastrophe? OMG. While I respect everyone’s faith, I must say some organized religions manipulate their congregations with fear tactics, by setting up double standard about death.

One of their teaching is that death is bad and people who die young did something wrong. (Or died for everyone else’s sins. . .) So their congregations run around fearing death, the image of death tainted with guilt and shame. On the other hand, they say heaven is our home and the dead is happy there.

Death as transformation process and life after death

Everything in this physical world is designed to end. That is how things get renewed here. But we are not just our bodies. Our soul, the energy within us, moves on after it leaves its host body. So death is a transformation process. There are many past life regression therapists such as Dr. Weiss who support this view of death. It’s great we are finally liberating ourselves from the myth and fear of death.

I’m happy I help people see through their many lifetimes in my Akashic Record Reading service.  It’s another way to understand ourselves as spiritual beings that transcends deaths.
