The Cathars and Reincarnation"They were heretics! This is the factual record of a man, and of a woman who remembers their 13th century lives together as heretics and as victims of the Inquisition. As a story of reincarnation it is unique because much of what is recalled has been conclusively proven to be factual. It all took place here -- [map] a tragic but heroic episode in the life of the Cathars, a mystical religious sect who lived in the Midi of France. The author, a psychiatrist, has pinpointed the very day, more than 700 years ago when the subject appeared before the Inquisition. The names of her family and collaborators have been discovered. Thus - the horrors of the Inquisition, what happened to this small circle in the Languedoc seven centuries ago is now recorded as history because of the amazing insights of a 20th century English girl in her early teens."--back cover. |
