Dr. Brian Weiss, an American psychiatrist, specializes in hypnotherapy and past life regression. In this book, he writes an account about his encounter with two patients, Elizabeth and Pedro, which opened his eyes to new possibilities in his profession. Both seek the renowned psychiatrist's help to deal with their personal turmoil. Pedro is undergoing emotional troubles and with the hope that an insight into his past life will give him a solution to his present problems, approaches the doctor. On the other hand, Elizabeth, a complete stranger to Pedro, talks about her previous lives with the doctor with the hope of sorting her relationship issues. In the astonishing process, Dr. Weiss finds congruity between the past lives of both his patients and speculates that the two present-day strangers, were in fact lovers in their past lives. The stories of their previous lives that Pedro and Elizabeth narrate have shocking similarities. This book, touching a bit of all three realms of psychiatry, spirituality and romance, is a description of the idea of love lasting beyond life and time.
