After going through the articles at SumitSodhi.com, Rohan Pasricha emailed us his experience of a past Life Regression done for the fear of darkness he had. This is what he wrote:

“I got past life regression done in 2011. I’ve got a pathological fear of darkness since childhood, and I thought I would grow out of it. But I didn’t and it kept getting progressively worse.
I got in touch with a regression therapist called Asis Ganguly. As I sat on the lazy chair, he took me into a deep state of relaxation. After the usual hypnosis techniques that involve breathing and counting (this lasted 20 mins), I felt as if I was going down a staircase that led to a door. When I opened the door, I suddenly found myself running in a forest. I was being chased by someone but I don’t know who. I finally found a secluded cabin and locked myself in. It was pitch dark inside and it was already evening so no light from outside either. But before I could figure out what happened next, I drifted into another lifetime where I woke up to see that my lover had abandoned me – again, it was night time and all I could see was a note, tucked neatly on the side of the bed. I drifted away from this memory too and then remembered a few random ones of not much significance. Apparently, it is said that if the memory is too painful, your subconscious takes you away from the scene before it impacts you psychologically.
I must say that I really didn’t see any of these things but felt them. The therapist said that introverts usually feel while extroverts actually see events. Who knows? Maybe I imagined the whole thing. But I did come out of the session feeling happier that my fear of darkness actually stems out of a fear of abandonment. Some of what I saw, or rather felt, made a lot of sense while some felt random and meaningless. Much of what every lifetime is for all of us!
Do I believe in this? I don’t know. I could have simply imagined all of it, or it really did happen and I simply ‘remembered’ it. But I do suggest you try it only if you have a chronic fear of some kind. As a spiritual person, I do believe that these things are probably hidden from us for a reason. Why not just focus on making this life happier? Can’t change the past anyway.
Good luck 🙂 “
Team Sumit Sodhi would like to add and suggest Rohan, that if the person is taken in his past life and the incident that caused trouble is re-lived without getting hurt in that moment or surpassing the hurt, changes the pain one faces due to it in his present time. Most of the therapists do that by helping the client feel normal about the incident so that it heals the wound that continues to exist in the client’s existing life.
Do mail us your experiences and we would publish it at sumitsodhi.com.
