Jitesh and Nitesh, twins who were about five years old, have recalled and visited the house where they lived in their past lives. The siblings from Shahjahanpur district of Uttar Pradesh, India, reported that they have been "reborn in this life."
You would believe them only if you thought that this life is not the beginning and end of your journey in the world. Would it be possible for you to come back to life at some point?
There are a number of believers in reincarnation, who would tell you that you just keep slipping in and out of this life as if you were passing through a revolving door.
Having been born in Bagiyanath village, the brothers recall that they were cousin brothers in their past lives, who had drowned in a pond on August 3, 2010. Nitesh had been 15-year-old Saurabh Singh and Nitesh had been 14-year-old Omi till 2010. They were the sons of Sukhbir Singh and his younger brother.
Reincarnation is not a belief that everybody subscribes to. But some experts, who have explored the entire phenomenon, clarify that it is possible not only for rebirth to happen, but also that there seems to be a "plan of action" that all humans take in order to follow a set of rules in coming generations.
Ian Stevenson has researched about 32 twins in some depth. He explains: "These twin studies, as well as other same family reincarnation cases, show that souls can plan incarnations from the spirit world and even choose parents for upcoming incarnations. One set of twins in this study also shows how facial features can remain consistent from lifetime to lifetime," he said.
Just about 10 months after they drowned, Jitesh and Nitesh were reborn to Bijendra, who lived in Bagiyanath. Hence, they went to their village three months ago, and landed up in the house of Sukhbir Singh. One of the siblings claimed him as his father.
When Sukhbir took them inside his house, the boys recognised their past lives' family members.
The possibility that the boys are lying is slim, as they are under five, and could not invent anything with such shockingly mature synchronicity, explain observers.
