UV Research on Reincarnation

The Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS), formerly the Division of Personality Studies , is a unit of the Department of Psychiatric Medicine at the University of Virginia. Utilizing scientific methods, it has been investigating apparent paranormal phenomena since 1967 under the leadership, until his death, of Dr. Ian Stevenson.

Psychiatrist Ian Stevenson

Dr. Ian Stevenson, 88, who passed on in February 2007, spent nearly half a century traveling the world to meticulously investigate hundreds of cases of small children who appeared to recall previous lives.

[I]n 1996, no less a luminary than astronomer Carl Sagan, a founding member of a group [CSACOP] that set out to debunk unscientific claims, wrote in his book, "The Demon-Haunted World": "There are three claims in the [parapsychology] field which, in my opinion, deserve serious study," the third of which was "that young children sometimes report details of a previous life, which upon checking turn out to be accurate and which they could not have known about in any other way than reincarnation."

In 1997 Dr. Stevenson agreed to let Tom Shroder, an editor at the Washington Post, travel with him through India, Lebanon and the United States as he investigated cases of children who seemed to remember previous lives. Shroder, with Dr. Stevenson's permission, wrote a book based on those experiences called Old Souls: The Scientific Evidence for Past Lives (the paperback title is Old Souls : Compelling Evidence From Children Who Remember Past Lives).
