Ajahn Brahm talks about how out-of-body experiences and near-death experiences, as well as experiences in deep meditation provide the proof that rebirth is real, and that it has been suppressed in Western culture for many centuries. He goes on to talk about how understanding that we live many lives is very useful including how it can help us to understand our own character formation and how deep seated desires can carry across from previous lives. It can also give us an appreciation of the workings of karma (action and result) and how it works in our lives and the lives of others.
