A three-year-old boy from the Golan Heights stunned his community when he claimed to have been murdered in a past life. According to witnesses, he said, *”I was killed with an axe,”* and led villagers to a spot where they found a skeleton and the murder weapon—just as he described.

Dr. Eli Lasch, a well-known doctor, witnessed the event firsthand and confirmed the boy’s accurate recollection. His story was later included in *Children Who Have Lived Before* by Trutz Hardo. The boy’s red birthmark matched the location of the fatal wound he claimed to have received in his past life, aligning with the Druze belief that birthmarks indicate past-life injuries.

The child even named his alleged killer. When confronted, the accused man denied it—until the body and axe were found. He then privately confessed, lending chilling weight to the child’s memory.

Cases like this aren’t isolated. American boy James Leininger described dying in a WWII plane crash, and Shanti Devi in India accurately recalled her former life in a distant city. As Dr. Jim Tucker suggests, these memories might indicate that *”consciousness could exist beyond the brain.”*

Whether viewed as evidence or coincidence, stories like these continue to challenge our understanding of life, death, and memory.
