This is the past lives podcast episode 4. I'm your host, Simon Bown.

My mission here at the past lives podcast is to investigate evidence that demonstrates survival of the human soul.

We will look at past life memories, any death experiences, spirit communication

and other incredible phenomena. You can visit my website at www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk.

Now, in today's episode, I will be interviewing Professor Erlanda Haraldson.

He is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Iceland, author of eight books and more than 100 research papers in peer-reviewed journals.

In this interview, we will be focusing on his book, I Saw a Light and I Came Here, all about

children that remember previous lives. And a little later on, we will be talking book, I Saw a Light and I Came Here, All About Children That Remember Previous Lives.

And a little later on, we will be talking about his other book, at the hour of death,

where he interviewed over a thousand doctors and nurses who were present at the time of death,

unwitnessed extraordinary phenomena.

Professor Harrelson, welcome to the past lives podcast.

Now, you have done so much investigation yourself,

where you have travelled the world and personally interviewed the people you've written about.

Can you tell us how it came about that you were doing this?

Well, I think what brought me to do it was that I was studying at the University of Virginia

in the beginning of the 70s, or I had rather an internship in clinical psychology. There I came to know Professor Ian Stevenson, and he

had been investigating cases of this kind for a long time.

Then later he invited me whether I wouldn't like to investigate some number of cases myself.

And I agreed to that.

That caused me to study by the number of cases in Sri Lanka.

In Sri Lanka, you can find cases relatively easily, although these cases are always rare.
