Art Bell welcomes Dr. Brian Weiss, a Yale-trained psychiatrist and former chairman of psychiatry at Mount Sinai Medical Center, to discuss his groundbreaking research into past life regression. Dr. Weiss shares how a single patient, Catherine, transformed his understanding of human consciousness when she spontaneously recalled a life from 4,000 years ago during a routine hypnotherapy session, and her lifelong phobias vanished as a result.

The conversation covers compelling validation cases, including a patient who recalled a concentration camp number that matched historical records and a Chinese physician who spoke fluent English during regression despite never having learned the language. Dr. Weiss explains how the early Christian church removed references to reincarnation at the Council of Nicaea for political reasons, and that most of the world's population already embraces the concept.

Art and Dr. Weiss also explore future life progressions, the relationship between reincarnation and modern physics concepts like non-locality, and a new CD included with his book Mirrors of Time that allows listeners to attempt their own regressions at home. The first hour features open lines and discussion of a missile defense test visible across the Southwest.
