Past life regression promises grand revelations—royal bloodlines, lost lovers, dramatic betrayals, or maybe even secret revolutionary pasts. But what happens when the hypnosis session doesn’t reveal a legendary warrior or a misunderstood genius? What if the big cosmic truth is… a pigeon on a Mumbai balcony in 1969?
The Grand Reveal
The candles are lit, the mind drifts, and the hypnotist guides the journey through time. The anticipation builds—perhaps a fearless pirate? A poet lost in history? And then, suddenly, the reality hits: grey feathers, a deep obsession with breadcrumbs, and an unexplainable urge to bob the head while walking.
The Existential Crisis
Sure, everyone dreams of being an emperor, an explorer, or at the very least, someone whose past life story could make a solid Netflix documentary. But a pigeon? The existential dread kicks in. Was life spent dodging monsoon rains? Was the peak moment a dramatic chase with a street cat? Was reincarnation just a never-ending loop of eating crumbs and avoiding ceiling fans?
The Search for Meaning
Maybe there’s wisdom in this bizarre discovery. Pigeons are survivors, adapting to any situation, living in both palaces and railway stations. They have the patience to wait hours for the perfect meal and the confidence to march into crowded spaces without hesitation. Perhaps being a pigeon was a lesson in resilience, street smarts, and the fine art of minding one’s business.
The Recovery Phase
Once the shock fades, acceptance kicks in. Maybe not every past life was about power and glory. Sometimes, it was about watching the world from a telephone wire, completely at peace. And who knows? Maybe in another lifetime, that same pigeon was staring at a human and thinking, “Poor thing, must be exhausting paying rent.”
