Oprah: Right.

Dr. Weiss: But here she’s drowning in a flood or tidal wave. She’s describing this — She has a different name, different body. And she drowns. And I’m —

Oprah: She’s telling you this while she’s under hypnosis.

Dr. Weiss: Yes.

Oprah: Mm-hmm.

Dr. Weiss: And I don’t know what this is because I don’t know about past lives. But I’m thinking, metaphor? Dream-like material? Fantasy?

Skepticism About Past Lives

Oprah: You are a Yale-trained, Columbia-trained doctor, psychiatrist, agnostic and this woman is saying these things – things are coming out of her mouth that are literally unbelievable – What did you make of that? I mean, so she finishes her hour session? I mean, I would have let her go two hours that day if I were you.

Oprah: She finishes her session and you say what?

Dr. Weiss: I said, “I don’t know what this is.” But, I could already see it was intense. It was cathartic. It was emotional. And I didn’t know why imagination —

Oprah: Because when you’re hypnotized, you remember everything you’re saying.

Dr. Weiss: Yes.

Oprah: Yeah.

Dr. Weiss: It’s not something that you forget. You remember it. And —

Oprah: So she probably couldn’t believe it herself.

Dr. Weiss: For her it was easier than for me.

Oprah: To believe it?

Dr. Weiss: Because it was so — yeah, to believe it. It was so intense for her. She was experiencing it with emotions and visually and — and sounds and other senses — that it became easier over the weeks that followed for her to change her world view. But for me, I needed more because I was such a skeptic, so left-brained, so academic… and I started already explaining it away. Like, oh, maybe she saw movies or read about this or maybe it’s the collective unconscious that the psychoanalyst Carl Jung wrote about or something else going on. But, when she came back in the next week, her symptoms were disappearing.

Dr. Weiss’s Turning Point

Dr. Weiss: And I remember my office feeling very cold – icy cold – at this moment. She said, there are two people here to see you, your father and your son. Now she’s in this hypnotized state. She’s in-between lifetimes now, just floating there, but still in a deep state, and she didn’t know anything about me. I don’t even have diplomas hanging in my office. So she’s telling me your father’s here and your son.
