On a side note, I enjoy MrBallen’s YouTube videos—or, as he describes them, the “strange, dark, and mysterious delivered in story format.” I cannot vouch for the authenticity of the stories, but he is an amazing storyteller. Many times I regret listening to the story as some are very dark (and tragic, heartbreaking, etc.), but I have also gone through almost all of his +220 videos, so ... I guess it is a testament to his skill as a storyteller.

The phenomenon of reincarnation is a fascinating topic. Advocates of reincarnation present the story of Dorothy Louise Eady as a prime example that reincarnation is as much a part of life as birth and death. The story of Dorothy Eady (AKA: Omm Sety) is an interesting one. She was born to Irish parents in January 1904 near London, England. Her life began as that of any normal child. That is – until the age of three – when she suffered a terrible fall down the stairs and pronounced dead.

everyone read this, this is so interesting

Dorothy Eady was born in 1904 in London. She fell down a flight of stairs when she was only three; the fall was so bad, her parents thought she had died. But she woke up, and started begging to be “brought home.” She began to become obsessed with Ancient Egypt, which caused a lot of strife in her Christian upbringing. When her parents took her to the British Museum, she fell in love with Egyptian exhibits and proclaimed it was “her home.” She eventually married an Egyptian man and moved to Egypt, where she began to become aware of what she believed to be her past life. She felt she was a reincarnation of a woman called Bentreshyt, a priestess who committed suicide. She herself had a son, named Sety, and began to call herself Omm Sety (mother of Sety). She devoted her life to the study of Ancient Egypt, and is well known for her research contributions.
