The Psychiatrist Who Glimpsed Beyond Death
What if your deepest fears are echoes from another time? In 1988, Yale-educated psychiatrist Dr. Brian Weiss risked his professional reputation to share an extraordinary story. His patient Catherine-an attractive 27-year-old plagued by crippling anxiety, phobias, and nightmares-had failed to respond to eighteen months of conventional therapy. In desperation, Weiss suggested hypnosis. What happened next would transform both their lives forever. Under hypnosis, Catherine began describing vivid past lives spanning thousands of years, from an Egyptian woman named Aronda to a World War II German pilot. Even more astonishing, between these lives, she channeled profound wisdom from spiritual entities she called "the Masters." The skeptical doctor found himself confronting evidence he couldn't explain away-especially when Catherine revealed intimate details about his deceased father and infant son that she couldn't possibly have known. Their journey together would challenge everything we think we know about consciousness, death, and the human mind.
