New Delhi, May 20 – A three-year-old boy in Syria’s Golan Heights region has suddenly become the centre of attention after he revealed that he was murdered with an axe in his previous life.
The boy, of the Druze ethnic group, was born with a long, red birthmark on his head. According to Druze beliefs, birthmarks are related to past-life deaths. When the boy was old enough to talk, he told his family that he had been killed with an axe blow to his head.
As is the custom, the elders took the child to the home of his previous life to see if he remembers it. And sure enough, the boy knew the village he was from and once he arrived there, he remembered the name he had in his past life.
Locals told the elders that the man who the boy was claiming to be had gone missing four years earlier. When asked, the boy also remembered the full name of his killer. When the alleged killer was confronted, his face turned white, but he did not admit to murder.
The boy then took the elders to where the body was buried and in that very spot, they found a man’s skeleton with a wound to the head that corresponded with the boy’s birthmark. They also recovered the axe with which he had been killed.
Faced with the evidence, the killer then admitted to the crime. The boy’s full story has been documented in the book, “Children Who Have Lived Before: Reincarnation Today” by German therapist Trutz Hardo.
