Your Experience Matters: The Reincarnation Survey Is Now Open

Reincarnation Research visitor survey findings: 50% arrive with a personal past-life experience, 58% seek case stories and education, 75% rank Life Between Lives as their top interest, 42% prefer an evidence-first approach.
Why we’re here: insights from the Reincarnation Research community visitor survey.

Your experience can help advance the study of reincarnation.

Take the Reincarnation Survey now — it only takes a few minutes.

The Institute for Life Continuity Studies (ILCS) is inviting the community to take part in our new Reincarnation Survey. Whether you’ve had a personal experience, explored past-life research, or are simply curious about the questions consciousness raises, your perspective adds something valuable to our work.

We built this survey to do what serious research should: gather thoughtful input, look for patterns rather than isolated claims, and treat every response with care. Participation is voluntary, and we’re committed to protecting your privacy and consent at every step.

What we’re asking

The survey takes just a few minutes. It covers your experiences, observations, and views on reincarnation — there are no right or wrong answers, and you’re welcome to share as much or as little as you’d like.

Why it matters

Every response helps us better understand how people encounter and interpret these experiences. Over time, this collective input strengthens the broader body of reincarnation research and helps ILCS ask sharper, more honest questions.

Take the survey

Reincarnation Case Study Lyman Trumbull Reincarnation Barack ObamaWhen Barack Obama rose upon the US national political stage with his 2008 run for the Presidency, many people wrote to me with the speculation that he is the reincarnation of Abraham Lincoln. Though I did not think that it was a valid match, I asked Ahtun Re in a session with Kevin Ryerson whether it is possible that Obama is the reincarnation of Lincoln. Ahtun Re said, “No, but he was close to Lincoln.”

Ahtun Re explained that Obama was a fellow Senator from Illinois who served with Lincoln, who was involved with writing the constitutional amendment which ended slavery. Ahtun Re later confirmed that Obama was Lyman Trumbull, an abolitionist who as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, co-wrote the 13th amendment which did end slavery in the United States.

A related case, given the 2012 presidential race, is the reincarnation case of Almon Babbit | Mitt Romney.
