No body is advertising murder for hire. You want publicity for yourself for nothing. There has to be a degree of fakeness on all the TV shows, but in Indian culture, reincarnation is a possibility. Faith is beyond the scientific testing. Even if some people see their past. whether with mind's imagination or real past, your dad will not, because he has no faith in this concept. Pinaki Ghosh,,

So have done a lot of studies about it, watched these kind of shows etc. Certain things about it have been proved scientifically(that were thought to be myths). Skeptics aren't any different than believers in the sense that believers believe on everything whether or not reasonable and the skeptics doubt on everything. Everything these skeptics don't understand is non scientific and non sense to them. I cannot just deny the idea of reincarnation and past life but what concerns me is the fact that the producers/show people didn't even verify the names and the events they could. Rather than just saying this is nonsense did you do some work? Just go and try to verify the events. It won't be hard to verify the events and the names that weren't very old. The case of the girl burnt alive by her mother in law in Delhi as an example. If you are denying something do it with a proof. Something that cannot be understood is not always wrong(or right for that matter). You are here doing the same thing as the show people are doing.
