Can we remember past lives is hypnosis?

In hypnosis, you cannot access past lives or recognize astral beings; you access only your own subconscious mind. The state is one of deep introspection, not external truth. A memory presented as a past life is a projection of a current, unresolved issue. For example, a woman under hypnosis recalled a detailed life in Egypt where her husband neglected her. This was not a past life but a reflection of her present relationship dynamic. Like a dream, these narratives feel real but lack physical evidence. If you dream of writing a symbol in a distant place, you cannot verify it upon waking. The subconscious materializes current psychic content, not historical fact. Therefore, hypnosis reveals hidden present conflicts, not past incarnations.

"Therefore, I do not agree that in hypnosis you can go to a past life or see some other beings."

"But I do believe that those psychic things, or anything that is hidden in your subconsciousness, comes out—the present problem of this life."

Can we remember previous lives in hypnosis, or can we recognize different astral beings? No, in hypnosis you cannot recognize a previous life or astral beings because in hypnosis you are more introverted. What evidence do you have? If you think it was your past life, you have to have physical evidence, and you cannot get physical evidence. One lady had a problem, and she underwent a hypnosis technique. Then she was imagining she was married to a man in Egypt. After one month when they married, she left for some business. He came home, and he never loved her. Her wish was only to see him. Then she died, and her dead body was carried to the graveyard. She was objecting with her astral body that even her husband did not come for her funeral. They burned her body there, and she was so sad, crying, "My husband." Then she came out of the hypnosis. She told the story, and the person who performed the hypnosis said, "Yes, this was your past life." She came and told me. I said, "Yes, my dear, not a past life. You have in the present life the same situation with a man." She said, "So the present situation, which was in the subconsciousness, was projected by yourself as your past life." That is just like a dream. You dream tonight that you are in Budapest. Is this reality? Where is your evidence? I was in Budapest in the yoga center. Next time when you dream that you are in the Budapest yoga center, write on the door "Oṃ." Then you wake up in Debrecen. Telephone to the āshram: "Is there an Oṃ I was writing?" No, I was dreaming; it was your dream. Therefore, I do not agree that in hypnosis you can go to a past life or see some other beings. But I do believe that those psychic things, or anything that is hidden in your subconsciousness, comes out—the present problem of this life.
