In the last ten years, multiple independently researched reincarnation cases have emerged, which reveal that from lifetime to lifetime, people have the same facial features, personality traits, passions and even linguistic writing style. How were cases derived? The most compelling cases involve those in which children have spontaneous memories of a past lifetime that can be factually verified. The case of James Leininger, aired on ABC Primetime in 2005, and the case of Anne Frank/Barbro Karlen, are examples. Past lives can also be derived from spontaneous memories in adulthood or past life regressions. Another set of cases has been derived through Kevin Ryerson, a world famous trance medium. For an overview of reincarnation research and cases solved through Kevin Ryerson, click on the images of Neale Donald Walsch.

I, Walter Semkiw, MD, am the author of Return of the Revolutionaries: The Case for Reincarnation and Soul Groups Reunited and Born Again. In the first section of both of my books, I review independently researched reincarnation cases that demonstrate objective evidence of reincarnation, including the cases of neurosurgeon Norm Shealy, Police Captain Robert Snow, Asst. Fire Chief Jeff Keene and author William Barnes.

In the second part of Revolutionaries, a cohort reincarnated from the time of the American Revolution is identified. Reincarnated American revolutionaries include George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Ralph Nader, Carl Sagan, Shirley MacLaine, Caroline Myss and Oprah Winfrey.

In Born Again, contemporary incarnations of Anne Frank, Gaugin, Picasso, Shakespeare, Laurel and Hardy, as well as reincarnation cases involving Abdul Kalam, Indira Gandhi, Amitabh Bachchan, and Shah Rukh Khan are presented.

The most important reincarnation case, from a societal point of view, involves Barbro Karlen, who in childhood had spontaneous memories of being Holocaust victim Anne Frank. As mentioned, the Frank/Karlen case is featured in Born Again. At ten years of age, on a visit to the Anne Frank House, Barbro was able to specify where artifacts should have located in the room where Anne stayed, artifacts that had been removed for preservation. Barbro was born into a Christian family, whereas Anne Frank was persecuted as a Jew. The observation that people can change religion from lifetime to lifetime could have prevented the Holocaust and can serve as an "Antidote to 9/11." The potential that objective evidence of reincarnation has in making our planet a more peaceful place is what makes me passionate about reincarnation research.

We have created an institute, IISIS, dedicated to scientific reincarnation research and the sociological benefits that this research can bring to humanity. Help us create a world that we all want to return to by supporting IISIS. Sincerely, Walter Semkiw, MD

Endorsements for Return of the Revolutionaries:

The Case for Reincarnation and Soul Groups Reunited

"For the survival of humanity, this is the most significant book written in two thousand years. When research reveals scores of correlations, 'coincidence' becomes synchronicity, which is the foundation for many new scientific discoveries." - C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D., neurosurgeon, medical inventor, and author of 21 books. www.shealyhealthnet.com

“The exciting research and discoveries found in Return of the Revolutionaries, will be of great value to constitutional scholars and avid readers of American history. As history comes alive in the illuminating pages of this magnificent book, the reader, and subsequently the world, will become transformed.” - Morris Wolff, former member of US Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy’s Office of Legal Counsel (OLC), former consulting attorney to John F. Kennedy and contributing author of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Mr. Wolff stood on the podium with Martin Luther King, Jr., when Dr. King gave his “I Have a Dream” speech. Mr. Wolff is the author of Rescuing Wallenberg.

"Dr. Semkiw's book, Return of the Revolutionaries, is perhaps the best-documented case study of human reincarnation in the Western world. This book is vitally important since, for the first time in western literature the true idea of reincarnation is introduced. It is important that we understand that souls incarnate in groups, cyclically, to achieve right relations with God and their fellow men. Esoterically speaking, the point of greatest interest lies in the fact that it is group rebirth, which is taking place all the time. Therefore, the case of a group of political individuals from the American Revolution reincarnating again in our modern age has a purpose in the plan of God." Wayne Peterson, retired US Diplomat, former Director of the Fulbright Scholarship Program and author of Extraordinary Times, Extraordinary Beings.

"This is a book filled with wonder, adventure, and intuitive and scientific inquiry into the nature of human consciousness. It is not only the journey of the author, it is an exciting journey for the reader into the nature of who we are."
- Kevin Ryerson
