Experiencing Past Life Regression

Diane2

By: Diane Silvester

  It is 1989, I’m going through a terrible divorce with two toddlers, I’ve just been through the San Francisco earthquake, right in the middle of the city, and my sister-in-law sends me a book to read with the words “I really think you want to read this.”  The title of the book: Many Lives, Many Masters by Dr. Brian Weiss. It became an international best seller. Not only did it blow my mind open and rock me deeper than the aforementioned earthquake, it sent me on a completely new career path and forever changed my way of looking at reality.   Growing up, my family was very much into the “tribe” i.e.: being Jewish.  My father came from Germany just before the war. He ended up fighting with the allies on 6 invasions and liberating concentration camps with the knowledge that our relatives had died there.  I can’t impress upon you enough how important it was to my family that we did everything around being Jewish.   I was born when my parents were much older . . . a surprise entrant.  My brothers had gone to public school many years earlier, but now my parents were more comfortable and sent me to a super religious school an hour away. I had to go to synagogue every week during the time Saturday morning cartoons were on (8:45 AM to about 12:30 PM every Saturday) and to make matters worse, my Dad was President of the synagogue for a while.  They even sent me to a school program in Israel.  According to my mother I was given a “Solid Gold Jewish Education.”  The problem is that I wasn’t really agreeable.  The rabbis used to get irritated with me because I would ask impertinent questions . . . about everything. “Why can’t I bring this book in the bathroom because it has G-d’s name?”  (See, I’m doing it the right way there, not actually writing the name out.)  “Isn’t God in the bathroom?  Where does God stop and the bathroom begin?  Isn’t the bathroom made of God too?”  Jews are meant to ask a lot of questions, but female ones . . . well you know . . . your job is to make more Jews.   So when I got this book handed to me by my very Jewish sister-in-law, and written by, of course, a Jewish Doctor, graduate of Columbia and Yale, Chairman of Psychology of a very large hospital in Miami . . . he gave me the heretic view point that reminded me . . . I’m not just this.  I have lived before, and will live again, and not just with this tribe!  To detail the book here would not do it much justice, it is a fascinating read.  To sum it up, it is the story of a mainstream psychotherapist who was skeptical when his patient began to spontaneously flip into past lives during their sessions and began to quickly heal from her traumatic anxiety attacks and nightmares.  The real mind boggling stuff came when she began bringing messages through that she couldn’t possibly know – messages about his son that had passed away and other messages of a higher spiritual order that she had no conscious recollection of after she told him. It showed how, as Freud stated, “Reliving is relieving,” and as the material of others times and other places were revealed, not only were they fascinating from a “story” point of view, the healing associated was undeniable.   I was hooked.  I set out to learn all I could about this and get a Past Life Regression myself!  Sadly, the first one I attempted didn’t work at all, I just couldn’t let myself relax…but the second time I tried….OMG.  First of all, I was all set to go back to the time of King Henry the 8th. I have always been pretty fascinated with that time period.  You will find that your past life memories are often a part of your life now. The type of foods you like, the places you feel drawn to visit or never want to see, your habits, your desires, your instant dislikes or likes of people, all are very much influenced by material that is just there, below your conscious awareness.   I’d like to say that I went to Elizabethan England.  I didn’t.  I went to Atlanta at the turn of the century where I owned a brothel. I had low integrity, lost my money gambling and died without friends.  Not sexy, but instructive. In my current life I have a strong aversion to gambling, am very, very into my friends, and am very moral when it comes to people that are in a relationship.  Clearly, a posturing away from what I didn’t do right there.  Seeing my soon-to-be-ex-husband, a man I felt was obsessed, hurtful, and cruel, was the biggest revelation in that first regression. I was not exactly good to him in that life.  It helped me to balance the current situation and to reach forgiveness for things that were really unforgivable without that larger perspective.   I have since conducted hundreds of Past Life Regressions, and have been honored to study with some of the real pioneers in the field – Dr. Brian Weiss, Dick Sutphen, Henry Leo Bolduc, Dr. Michael Newton – and more you may not have heard about.  It became a “mission” for me for a while to lecture about this work.  To let everyone know that you are not just this life, this tribe, this color, this country.  You are an eternal immortal soul working through many things, in many lives, with many flavors.  In my personal regressions I have not just managed to forgive people when I saw my part in the dance; I have also cleared a life long blood phobia and the inability to wear turtlenecks or short necklaces.  I have found myself male, female, black, asian, rich, poor etc.   Once when I was regressed in a class, I went back to a life where I saw that my actions led to the untimely death of the man who is my brother in this life. We have always had a strained relationship this time around.  Part of the work is to forgive and clear, and also to ask for forgiveness.  Well, I hadn’t had correspondence from him for at least 6 months and when I arrived home from class there was a short e-mail from him, “It’s been a while, we should talk.” I told him all about the past life when we talked. He listened and then changed the subject; I am sure this was too “woo-woo” for his world-view.  Interestingly enough, it was his wife who had given me Many Lives, Many Masters, and so I believe it came full circle.   My work with Past Life Regression has encouraged my studies in astrology, numerology, and other similar systems. I have found parallels with the life stories I’ve seen and my astrological “assignment” in this life, understanding the pluses and minuses. It is fascinating to connect the dots and see the tapestry is correspondent.   I give Dr. Brian Weiss credit for setting me on this journey that eventually led to me opening up a metaphysical shoppe in Ojai, California.  Thank you Dr. Weiss!   If you are interested in a private session, please Google the teachers I mentioned above and ask them about how to access their students in your area…see you again, and again, and again…maybe. 😉

  1. I have had the very good fortune of experiencing several past lives through Diane’s guidance. Over the intervening years I have worked with a number of other competent and reputable regressionists but NONE have been as good as Diane.

  2. Feels like something I need to do. There’s a block, I haven’t been able to climb over, go around, or avoid. Breaking through it, sounds better.
    Thanks Diane,

  3. Hi Diane,
    I would LOVE to attend your group past-life regression session at the Ojai Retreat. So I followed the link, but their calendar doesn’t mention anything about it. Can you give more info about it, such as where, the cost, and when? Thanks!

    • Hi Julie,
      Diane has postponed the event at the Ojai Retreat due to personal commitments. We will post any future group past life regressions happening in the Dome on the website. Please keep checking back! Thanks!
