Independently researched reincarnation cases, including many studied by Ian Stevenson, MD, demonstrate that a soul may animate more than one physical body at a time. Ian Stevenson called reincarnation cases in whIch lifetimes overlap as “cases with anomalous dates.”
I term this phenomenon as “split incarnation.” I refer to two people who derive from the same soul, who are incarnate at the same time, as “splits”. “Parallel lives” is an older term that has been used to describe the phenomenon of splits incarnated at the same time. I coined the term “split” in the year 2000.
A variant of split incarnation is when a person is alive and at the same time, that person’s soul has animated a fetus which will be born in the future. In this case, a person and that person’s fetus for an upcoming incarnation exist at the same time.
How does split incarnation work? Though we don’t know for sure, we can imagine split incarnation as similar to how a mirror can split a beam of light into two or more beams of light. Similarly, the soul can project more than one beam of light or energy template into physical incarnation at a time.
We can imagine two splits as two arms of a human being. Each arm has its separate existence, yet both arms are controlled by one brain or mind. In split incarnation, we can see two splits as two appendages of the soul. How many splits can a soul project onto the physical world at a time? As is discussed in the section, Soul Evolution, it is believed that the maximum number is about seven, though having this number of splits at the same time is rare.

Dr. Ian Stevenson, MD, who died in 2007, served as Chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia, School of Medicine. He was also honored as the Carlson Professor of Psychiatry at that institution. Starting in 1961, for forty years, Dr. Stevenson investigated children who spontaneously remember past lives that could be factually validated. He chose to only study children as he reasoned that children were unlikely to fabricate past life memories. Jim Tucker, MD has taken over for Dr. Stevenson at the University of Virgina.
As of 2018, Dr. Tucker has related to me that Stevenson and his colleagues compiled “over 2500” childhood past life memory cases. In 1567 of these cases, the past life personality was identifed through research. In another 150 cases, the past life personality has been “tentatively” identified.
As such, in my opinion, the number of validated childhood past life memory cases is best represented by the number 1567.
Most of Stevenson’s cases come from Asia, India or other areas where the doctrine of reincarnation is accepted. In locations where reincarnation is not an accepted belief system, it is thought that parents inhibit a child’s expression of past-life memories. The childhood cases studied by Ian Stevenson have a common pattern, marked by the following features:
1. As soon as the child can communicate, the child starts to describe a previous lifetime. Often, the child declares that his or her name is different from the name given to the child by its biologic parents. The child insists that the current family is not its true family, but that his or her real family lives in a different village or town. The child remembers the names of various family members and geographic locations from the past lifetime. Physical features of the past life house and neighborhood may be recalled. In Dr. Stevenson’s series of cases, the average age at which the child starts speaking about a past lifetime is 3 years of age and the average age when children stop talking about a past lifetime is 7. 5 years of age.
2. The child remembers details of its death in the prior lifetime. In approximately 66 percent of Dr. Stevenson’s childhood reincarnation cases, a violent or premature death occurred in the previous lifetime. Dr. Stevenson has found that individuals who died of traumatic wounds, such as bullet or knife wounds, often are born in a subsequent incarnation with birthmarks or scars that mirror the wounds incurred in the past lifetime. In the contemporary lifetime, the child may have a phobia related to the cause of death in the past life. It has been calculated that of the children who remember a violent past life death, 35 percent have a phobia related to the cause of death.
3. Based on information provided by the child to the biologic family, the child’s family from the prior incarnation is eventually identified. When the child meets this family for the first time, the child is able to identify family members by name or by relationship. The child often knows family secrets that only members of the prior family would know. As a result, the family from the past lifetime often accepts the child as the reincarnation of their deceased relative.
The biologic parents of the child in the current incarnation often fear that the child will leave them for the family from the prior incarnation, as the mutual bond between the child and past life family becomes so strong. This fear turns out to be unwarranted, as the bond between the child and the contemporary parents endures. A long-term relationship, though, typically ensues between the child and family from the prior lifetime.
4. Personality traits, personal preferences, and habits often persist from one incarnation to another.
6. Physical appearance can be similar from one lifetime to another
Stevenson cases show that physical appearance can remain the same from one incarnation to another. Two cases in particular dramatically demonstrate how facial features can remain consistent from one lifetime to another. Ian Stevenson studied Suzanne Ghanem and Daniel Jurdi in the late 1960’s, when they were small children. Photographs of these individuals from their prior incarnations were available. Stevenson revisited Suzanne and Daniel in 1998 and found that these two people, now full grown adults, had the same facial features as in their past incarnations. These cases were published in Tom Shroder’s book, Old Souls. Two other Ian Stevenson reincarnation cases, in which photo comparison’s are available (and provided to the right) that demonstrate similar facial features involve: Burmese Twins
In his book, Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect, Dr. Stevenson advised that researchers systematically study “facial resemblances between subjects and previous personalities.”
As noted above, Stevenson cases that demonstrate physical resemblance involves Burmese twins, who were sisters in their past lifetimes. They were part of a study involving 31 sets of twins, whose past lives were objectively validated. In 100% of these cases, the twins had significant past life relationships, concretely demonstrating that souls plan lifetimes to be reunited with loved ones through reincarnation.
8. Children remember the interval in-between lifetimes. In 20 percent of Stevenson’s cases, children report memories of what happened in-between lifetimes in the spirit world. These reports are found on this website under the category:
Of interest, the median interval between the past life death and rebirth is 16 months or about 1.5 years. The average interval between death and rebirth is 4.5 years. For reincarnation cases involving suicide in the prior lifetime, the median interval between death and rebirth is only 3 months.
Society for Scientific Exploration
I also would like to share that I had the opportunity to visit Dr. Stevenson at the University of Virginia at Charlottesville in the year 2001. He was a very gracious host and he spent an entire day with me. I was very honored that at the conclusion of my visit, he offered to sponsor me for membership in the Society for Scientific Exploration, an academic organization that he co-founded. I did join the SSE and I highly recommend this organization.
The world owes a great debt to Dr. Stevenson for the important work he did over his long career. Through our website, ReincarnationResearch.com, and our organization, the Institute for the the Integration of Science, Intuition and Spirit, we hope to build upon his contributions and as a gesture of respect and acknowledgement, a posthumous Reincarnation Research Award has been given to Dr. Stevenson. As noted, reincarnation research continues at the University of Virginia under the guidance of Jim Tucker, MD.
Ian Stevenson’s Reincarnation Research presented as Children’s Reincarnation Stories
Ian Stevenson. MD wrote in a very academic style, as his target audience was fellow scientists. On the ReincarnationResearch.com web site, his past life cases are presented as children’s reincarnation stories to make his academic work easier to understand. For those interested in appreciating the scientific rigor of his research, such as his use of multiple witnesses to establish corroborated testimony, please refer to the original reports written by Dr. Stevenson.
The validated childhood past life memory cases compiled at the University of Virginia, along with other important reincarnation cases, allow us to comprehend how reincarnation works. To learn more, please go to:

Childhood Past Life Memory Cases of Ian Stevenson, MD
The most compelling reincarnation cases are those in which young children spontaneously remember past lives that can be factually verified. Ian Stevenson, MD, of the University of Virginia, compiled over 1200 of these objectively validated cases, which in aggregate provide proof of reincarnation. His academic research is presented on the Reincarnation Research web site as children’s past life stories for ease of understanding.
Typically, in these cases, the child starts telling his or her parents about a past incarnation as soon as they learn to speak. Past life memories generally persist until the age of seven, at which time memories tend to fade.
Theses memories can include their name in the past lifetime, as well as the names of their parents and family members from the prior incarnation. The child may also recall the name of the city or town that they lived in.
When the child provides detailed enough information, the parents or involved researchers are able to locate the past life family and introduce the child to this family. The child will be able to identify these past life family members by name, individuals that the child has never met in their contemporary lifetime. The child can know information and secrets about their past lifetime that only members of the past life family are aware of.
Based on the child’s past life memories, the past life family will often accept the child as the reincarnation of their deceased loved one. Two key reincarnation cases of this kind, researched by Ian Stevenson, MD, which also demonstrate physical resemblance from one lifetime to another, are provided below:
As noted, these two cases were researched by the late Ian Stevenson, MD, a pioneer of reincarnation research, who was a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Virginia, in the Division of Perceptual Studies. Dr. Stevenson chose to primarily research cases involving children with spontaneous memories as he felt these cases were the most likely to be valid.
Another compelling reincarnation case involving past life memories in childhood is that of: Anne Frank | Barbro Karlen
Past Life Memories in Adulthood
Memories accessed in adulthood can be confounded by the adult reading historical information about the proposed past lifetime or era, which could taint the case. Dr. Stevenson did not trust information gained through past life regressions, as he felt subjects could fabricate or make up memories.
Researchers at the University of Virginia, such as Jim Tucker, MD, continue to focus primarily on children with spontaneous past life memories. These reincarnation cases in aggregate provide proof of reincarnation and indeed, Dr. Jim Tucker has stated on US national television that sufficient evidence now exists to conclude that reincarnation exists. He did so when appearing in support of the James Huston, Jr. | James Leininger reincarnation case after it was aired on ABC Primetime.
Ideally, researchers should be involved in a case before the child is introduced to the past life family, so that the child’s reactions and identifications of past life family members can be witnessed objectively.
Reincarnation Cases with Past Life Memories in Childhood which are Solved in Adulthood
There also are cases in which children have partial memories, where the child does not provide enough information for the parents to identify the past life family. Additional memories or information may be accessed later in life, which can allow the individual to identify their past incarnation. Examples of cases of this sort are provided below:
In sum, cases based on spontaneous past life memories in childhood, in which the child’s memories can be validated objectively, are the most compelling of all reincarnation cases.

In Born Again, key cases that provide evidence of reincarnation are complied, which are presented as easy-to-read synopses. In aggregate, these cases provide proof of reincarnation. Principles of reincarnation are reviewed, including observations that facial features, personality traits, talents and passions can remain consistent from lifetime to lifetime.
Dr. Semkiw also reviews the important twin study researched by Ian Stevenson, MD, of the University of Virginia, which shows that souls can plan lifetimes and that loved ones can be reunited through reincarnation. Xenoglossy cases demonstrate that past life personalities are retained intact within the soul following death.
Significantly, religion and nationality can change from lifetime to lifetime, as demonstrated in the Anne Frank reincarnation case. Dr. Semkiw asserts that this knowledge will help create a more peaceful world. Cases derived through Kevin Ryerson, a world-renowned trance medium, are also presented.

This case involves the work of Kevin Ryerson and Ahtun Re, who continue their research today through the Institute for Life Continuity Studies (ILCS). Walter Semkiw’s legacy lives on.
Through my work with Kevin Ryerson, Yuvraj Kapadia has been identified as my split, which means that Yuvraj and I derive from the same soul. Other terms for split incarnation include twin flames, twin souls or parallel lives. More can be learned about this phenomenon at: Split Incarnation
Reincarnation Research of Stevenson, MD at the University of Virginia Supports Split Incarnation
As it is an entertaining story, let me share how Yuvraj was identified as my split. In 2003, reincarnation cases involving Penny Peirce, which dramatically demonstrate the phenomenon of split incarnation, were published in my book, Return of the Revolutionaries. Later on, I learned that Ian Stevenson, MD of the University of Virginia also researched reincarnation cases that demonstrate split incarnation, though he used the term “cases with anomalous dates,” indicating that lifetimes overlapped in time.
As I studied this phenomenon, I wondered if perhaps I have a split. In a session with Kevin Ryerson, which occurred in 2004 or 2005, I asked Ahtun Re, the spirit guide channeled through Kevin, this question. I had started working with Kevin in 2001 and over time, Ahtun Re demonstrated to me the ability to make accurate past life or reincarnation identifications.
Ahtun Re said that I had a split in India who is involved in past life regression. At that time, I was planning to attend a World Congress for Regression Therapy, which was going to be held in New Delhi, India in 2006. I asked Ahtun Re if I would meet my split at this conference and he said that I would. When I received the program for the New Delhi event, I saw of photo of Yuvraj and based on a similarity in facial features, I wondered if he was my split.
In New Delhi, Yuvraj and Neeta attended my presentation and afterwards I sought them out. I explained to them my hypothesis that Yuvraj and I may be splits. They then surprised me with the following information.
Yuvraj and Neeta Kapadia receive Spiritual Guidance to Attend Walter’s Presentation on Reincarnation Research
They told me that they ran a center for past life regression and hypnosis in Mumbai and to learn as much as possible at the Congress, they intentionally went to different lectures given at the same time with the plan that they would share information afterwards. Yuvraj and Neeta made one exception. They decided to both attend my presentation as they had an intuition that they would be working with me in the future. They related that as they were listening to my presentation, which included a discussion on split incarnation, Neeta commented on how much Yuvraj and I resembled one another.
Split Incarnation, Parallel Lives, Twin Souls or Twin Flames: Parallel Paths on the Opposite Sides of the World
I learned that Yuvraj went to University of Mumbai, where he won the Gold Medal in microbiology, which was given to the top student. I too studied biology as an undergraduate and did well academically. Yuvraj later switched careers and dedicated his life to reincarnation and past life regression. Similarly, though I continued to practice medicine, my greatest passion is objective evidence of reincarnation and I did serve two terms on the board of directors of IARRT, a regression organization based in the United States. In sum, though born on opposite sides the planet, we have followed similar paths.
When I informed Yuvraj that I thought that he may be my split, he paused for a few seconds, looked at me and stated, “I know this is true.” Yuvraj explained that at that moment he had received inner, intuitive confirmation that he was my split. When I returned to the United States, in a subsequent session with Kevin Ryerson, Ahtun Re also affirmed that Yuvraj Kapadia is my split.
At the World Congress for Regression Therapy held in Turkey in 2011, in his presentation, Yuvraj cited and discussed the split incarnation case of Yuvraj Kapadia | Walter Semkiw.
At First Glance, Walter Thinks a Photo of Yuvraj Kapadia is a Photo of Walter
Another amusing story is that a few years later, I was at an IARRT board meeting in San Diego and I walked by a group photo of what I thought included me with a number of colleagues from India. As I walked away, I thought to myself, “I don’t remember taking that photo.” I turned around and examined the image more closely and realized that it was Yuvraj in photo, not me.
If this case of split incarnation is accepted, it shows how a soul can better accomplish chosen goals by incarnating into different places at the same time. Yuvraj and I are both promoting a better understanding of reincarnation in the two largest democracies in the world, India and the United States. Though the predominant religion in India, Hinduism, promotes the doctrine of reincarnation, past life regression has only been introduced to India approximately since the year 2000.
Sunny Satin, Blossom Furtado & Past Life Regression in India
The late Sunny Satin, pictured to the right, who lived in Southern California, helped bring regression to India. Sunny founded the California institute of Hypnosis in New Delhi. It was Sunny who organized the World Congress for Regression Therapy in New Delhi and it was he who facilitated the publication of my book, Born Again, in India. Sunny and I appeared together on CNN-IBN in 2006.
Another past life regression organization in India, located in New Delhi, is the Hypnotherapy School of India, which is headed by Blossom Furtado, another pioneer in past life regression in India. Her husband, Rock Furtado published the first version of Born Again in India.
Drs. Newton and Lakshmi Kondaveti, the Life Research Academy and Past Life Regression in India
Another couple that is invested in promoting past life regression in India is Dr. Newton Kondaveti and his wife, Dr. Lakshmi Kondaveti. Newton and Lakshmi are both trained as medical doctors, but they have dedicated their lives to past life regression and spiritual development. They have created the Life Research Academy (LRA) in Hyperabad, India.
Similar Talents and Interests: Yuvraj and I both did undergraduate work in biology and did well academically. We both later in life turned our energies to reincarnation research and past life regression.
Split Incarnation: Yuvraj and I believe that we derive from the same soul.

There is ample evidence based on case studies involving young children who have spontaneous memories of past lives to conclude that reincarnation is a reality. The most compelling cases come from the work of Ian Stevenson MD at the University of Virginia.
Over a period of 40 years, Dr. Stevenson traveled around the world studying young children with spontaneous memories of past lives that could be objectively validated. Approximately 1200 of these validated reincarnation cases exist, which have been meticulously documented by Dr. Stevenson. Two cases that are especially dramatic because they were followed over a period of about 30 years and demonstrate physical resemblance from one lifetime to another are:
From independently researched case studies, such as those from the University of Virginia, principles of reincarnation can be derived. These include the findings that facial features, talents and passions can remain consistent from lifetime to lifetime. Further, research shows that we reincarnate with people we have known in prior incarnations. To understand how reincarnation works, please review:
How Reincarnation Research can create a More Peaceful World
One the most important findings that reincarnation research reveals is that individuals can change religion, nationality and ethnic affiliation from one lifetime to another. This observation has the potential to help create a much more peaceful world, as conflicts and war are usually based on differences in these cultural markers of identity.
A particularly impressive case in this regard involves the reincarnation of Anne Frank. Anne Frank was persecuted as a Jew and died in a Nazi concentration camp. In my assessment, she has reincarnated as Barbro Karlen, who was born into a Christian family in Sweden. If the Nazis knew that one could be born Jewish in one lifetime and Christian in another, then the Holocaust could not have happened. Similarly, if Muslims knew they could reincarnate as Christians or Jews and vice versa, the conflicts we witness in the Middle East would end. Please review the following pages.
What I consider the most important independently researched reincarnation cases are compiled in my book Born Again.
The Purpose of Reincarnation
Though reincarnation research sheds much light on the process of reincarnation, not all questions can be answered through evidence of past lives. For example, the number of lifetimes we go through and the overall purpose of reincarnation remains speculative.
To fill in the gaps that reincarnation research leaves open, I have used another source for information. Since 2001, I have worked with Kevin Ryerson, the trance medium who is featured in the books of Shirley MacLaine. Kevin channels a spirit guide named Ahtun Re, who I have conversed with on a monthly basis since 2001. Ahtun Re and I have vigorous dialogues and over the span of time, I have come to the conclusion that Ahtun Re is truly a spirit being separate from the consciousness of Kevin Ryerson. Ahtun Re has an encyclopedic scope of knowledge and he has also demonstrated the ability to make accurate past life matches. Cases that show this ability can be reviewed at the following page:
When we were created as souls, which are individual expressions of God, each of us was imbued with a certain set of energies or abilities, the sum of which I call one’s energy spectrum. These qualities predispose us to follow certain career paths and occupations. As such, musicians tend to reincarnate as musicians, scientists tend to reincarnate and pursue careers in science or technology and social activists tend to pursue activist roles across lifetimes. Much as we wake up in the morning with a personality consistent from the night before, from lifetime to lifetime, we are similar in the way that we approach life. How we express our energies can be altered by the genetic inheritance and life circumstances we are born with.
Reincarnation and the Establishment of Identity
In early phases of incarnation a chief task is to develop a stable sense of identity. Imagine if in your contemporary lifetime you have no memories of what happened prior to the current moment. You would not have a sense of identity. Experiences through a series of lifetimes builds identity. Identity is commonly based on the religion, nationality and the ethnicity that we are born into. When we are still immature souls, identification with these factors can be too strong, causing separation and conflict. We forget that we all originate from one source.
As we reincarnate, we can make mistakes and hurt others generating karma that must be worked out in future incarnations.
Just as a child must go through school and learn from mistakes in the course of becoming a self-sufficient human being, we as souls develop through the school of Earth life.
Becoming a Universal Soul through Reincarnation
After we establish a strong identity, develop our set of skills to a sufficient degree, work off karma and finally achieve an all-encompassing love of humanity, we no longer have to reincarnate and can instead pursue further experience and growth in the spiritual realms. On average, Ahtun Re says that it takes about 100 lifetimes to reach this point in development. This number can vary significantly based on the earnestness that a soul pursues spiritual growth and evolution through its incarnations.
Many, though, still choose to reincarnate, even when they don’t have to, in order to pursue projects to help humanity evolve. Ahtun Re estimates that at least 20% of the population on Earth is here on a voluntary basis.
Reincarnation: Enjoy the Journey
There are times when life can be very hard. During these episodes, we may dread having to reincarnate, but we do so at the behest of our own souls. As such, we should try to keep things in perspective, be kind to others and enjoy the journey as much as possible.

Evidence of Reincarnation can Help Create a More Peaceful World
In 2010, I placed an advertisement for ReincarnationResearch.com in the Hollywood Reporter ‘s philanthropy issue to seek donations to fund translation of key independently derived reincarnation cases, such as those researched by Ian Stevenson, MD of the University of Virginia, into multiple languages. Since these cases show that a soul can change religion, nationality and ethnic affiliation from one incarnation to another, evidence of reincarnation can help create a more peaceful world. An especially powerful case in this regard is the: Reincarnation Case of Anne Frank | Barbro Karlen
The work of Ian Stevenson, MD and the Anne Frank Barbro Karlen case is featured in the viral reincarnation research video:
To have a positive impact, though, these independently researched reincarnation cases have to be made available to people of diverse cultures.
The ReincarnationResearch.com website page, Principles of Reincarnation, with the 23 independently researched reincarnation cases that are cited, form the template for our translation efforts.
Past Life Attraction: Ben Stiller and the Biopic on David O. Selznick
With the placement of the ad, I was given a complimentary subscription to the Hollywood Reporter. In the November 4, 2011 issue I was struck by an article on Ben Stiller, who was described as “an astute, driven filmmaker,” which is very different from his public, comic persona. My curiosity was further piqued by the following line:
“Two of his favorite future films have show business at their heart, each centered on a larger-than-life character whose moral ambivalence intrigues Stiller and whose drive is perhaps something he relates to. One is about David O. Selznick, the obsessive producer of Gone with the Wind.” (1)
I then read a different article in which it was stated that Stiller very much wants to be involved in the production of this movie on the life of David O. Selznick and is even considering playing the lead role of Selznick.
Affinity Reincarnation Cases: Attraction to One’s Own Past Life
There is a category of reincarnation cases that I term “affinity cases,” in which an individual is attracted to their own past life persona. One example involves the reincarnation case of Dorothy Dandridge | Halle Barry and two others involve the reincarnations of Laurel and Hardy. In this light, I wondered if Stiller might be the reincarnation of Selznick.
I noted that the shape of Ben Stiller’s face is similar to that of Selznick, though Selznick was much heavier in weight then is Stiller. The reincarnation case of Oliver Hardy | Danny Bacher demonstrates how facial architecture can remain the same from lifetime to lifetime, though appearance can vary due to body weight. As with Stiller, Danny is not nearly as heavy as Ollie was.
Spirit Being Ahtun Re Affirms Ben Stiller as the Reincarnation of David O. Selznick
In a session with Kevin Ryerson, I asked about this proposed match and Ahtun Re, a spirit guide channeled through Kevin who has demonstrated an ability to make accurate past life matches, affirmed that Ben Stiller is the reincarnation of David O. Selznick. I then became excited about trying to find members of Selznick’s soul group reincarnated around Stiller. For example, it was Selznick who brought Alfred Hitchcock from England, introduced him to American audiences and made him one of the most famous directors in the world.
Oren Moverman as the Reincarnation of Alfred Hitchcock
In investigating possible soul group connections, I started with the movie that is being planned about Selznick. I learned that the screenplay was written by Pulitzer Prizewinning playwright Donald Margulies. Further, I read that an Israeli filmmaker, Oren Moverman, had rewritten Margulies’ screenplay and was being considered to direct the movie on Selznick.
I noted that Moverman bears a strong resemblance to Alfred Hitchcock, with the variation that Hitchcock was extremely overweight and Moverman is not. Like Hitchcock, Moverman started as a journalist and then moved into screenwriting and movie direction. In the session with Kevin Ryerson, Ahtun Re verified my hypothesis that Oren Moverman is the reincarnation of Alfred Hitchcock.
Principles of Reincarnation & Understanding Past Lives
Split Incarnation: The lifetimes of Alfred Hitchcock and Oren Moverman overlap by about 16 years.

3. Based on information provided by the child to the biologic family, the child’s family from the prior incarnation is eventually identified. When the child meets this family for the first time, the child is able to identify family members by name or by relationship. The child often knows family secrets that only members of the prior family would know. As a result, the family from the past lifetime often accepts the child as the reincarnation of their deceased relative.
