A look back at 5 previous lives
A conversation with Irma Kamp
Irma Kamp remembers 5 previous lives
Being clairvoyant are you able to look back at previous lives?
Whenever people come to me I can tell them more about the past, the present and the future and if they want I can tell them about their previous lives. This involves seeing a photograph of them as a baby or from their youth. Previous lives are important in order to find the root of things in this life that they don’t understand, such as fears, phobias and mental-blocks. They need to understand their previous lives in order to find a place for certain things in their present life. They understand what causes their fears or phobias and see them in a new light.
When somebody with vertigo understands that in a previous life they fell out of an aircraft then the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.
You can then find a place for that in your system. The system is a link within yourself through which you understand what happens and you can then work on it. Things repeat themselves as well so that you can eventually understand them. That can present itself in the form of a relationship but also in rest, patience and gives warmth for which you will eventually be rewarded. If you want to harm somebody or gain advantage at somebody’s expense it will always, at a later stage, rebound back at you. Thing always reverberate, it is always a case of give and take. Everything repeats itself for as long as it takes until you succeed in breaking the vicious circle. I have noticed that people who are interested in their previous life are often wiser people. They are often gifted or very developed, such as on a paranormal level. They are often stronger in their lives and have a certain consciousness in which they find rest.
If somebody has a consultation with you, how many lives do you go back?
I go back 5 lives, in which the one verges on the other. Often it is very clear why people in this life have certain anxieties. It then becomes clear that it has something to do with their previous life. Then you begin to understand why, for instance, somebody has a fear of water, heights, depth or confined spaces. You then see what happened in a previous life and what caused these anxieties. When you see families together in a photograph is also clear to see what the one person has got to do with the other. A husband and wife in this life could have been mother and son in a previous life. That’s why they could have difficulties in this life, they fight like cat and dog, in order to give each other breathing space. Once they know what relationship they had in a previous life then they can understand the breach in the system better and find the correct place for it in their lives. They no longer need to bring each other down. If one sees two homosexual men or women, it appears quite often that in a previous life they had been each others lover or mistress. A couple of years ago a lesbian couple called on me. They had decided quite late in life to live together as same-sex partners. They came to me for more of an explanation and to know how I saw it. I then discovered that they had both once lived in the mountains in Switzerland. ‘He’ was the postman and ‘she’ was the wife of an hotelier. This wife of an hotelier, it appeared was married to a man whom, two previous lives before had been her father. From that, it appeared that this husband could not leave her alone and he also had a lot of problems with the fact that she appeared to be lesbian. Once you know why things happen in your system then you can understand your life better and why certain things keep reoccurring.
When do souls return, in other words, how much time elapses between reincarnations?
In proportion to the life that has taken place it can take 100 to 200 years before you return. If you died early or unexpectedly, for instance in a war or by some terrible accident, then it could be that you returned within 40 years or less.
Could you tell us more about your own previous lives?
Yes, I can tell for instance that I was a nun whom on the 4th of May 1944 was executed in Nijmegen. I still have the bullet hole in my head which you can feel. There are many people who cannot accept this sort of thing so I don’t talk freely about the reincarnation process. Many people think that this is their life and that there is nothing after this. I don’t share this view, it is my opinion that there is certainly something after death. In my present life I have been to Gorinchem, where I had been a nun for a while. I found places that had connection with the Jewry. While I sauntered across the square I recognised where people had been rounded up. Later, in books I found the places where, indeed, young men were rounded up during a raid. I knew for certain that I had something to do with this and that I had a direct link with this. In another memory I remembered that as a nun I had helped a number of Jews with their papers and identity documents, so that they could escape. In my current life these are now patients of mine who have come to me for an explanation or for help. In this life they are no longer Jewish but they acknowledge Judaism as a religion. Myself, I acknowledge all cultures and religions. You could develop hatred towards someone with a dark skin, but sooner or later you’re going to be one yourself and will have to endure all the injustices. Things constantly recur and that is the whole purpose, the kern of the reincarnation process.
If you reincarnate, do you reincarnate each time into the same community? For instance, in Belgium or Africa? Do you reincarnate every time into the same sex?
Not always. I have been, for example, in a previous life a woman but I have also lived in Ireland. A girl friend of mine during the war, also served in the resistance, but then she was a man. I can describe in detail exactly what she looked like. In this present life she still loves music which she also loved then. Sometimes you come across people in the street that you are sure you recognise and with whom you, as it were, are at one. This is all to do with the fact, in an earlier life you had something in common. Sometimes you come across friends and it is as of you’ve known each other for centuries. You can link that to an earlier life too. If I take a look at these earlier lives, I often see a bond that explains why that happened. In this current life I came across a certain person to whom I was very attracted. It could be, for example, a young man who was very important to me and in a previous life had been my brother. At first you don’t notice it, but after a while if you look deeper into the eyes then you know what the relationship contains. Then it becomes clear why you are attracted to this person.
Suppose someone suddenly fell head-over-heels in love with a random person, a real déja vu situation. How would you explain this?
It has often to do with something in a previous life that you could not complete. If two people come across each other and it is love-at-first-sight, it is often the case that you have had a relationship with each other in a previous life and in this life you get a second chance to complete something that you began in a previous life. That does not mean that you’ll stay together and the relationship will be fruitful. Everybody has a free choice. At the end of the day you have your own life here in 2010. If for instance, in a previous life, you severely belittled your wife and didn’t give her what she deserved then in this life you get the chance to cherish her.
You often use the term ‘complete’. Is there some sort of task that must be attended to?
By ‘complete’ I mean you have to finish something off. You have to clearly show with value, respect and understanding that you are there for the other person, that you are obliged to them. So that this other person can find satisfaction and balance within themselves.
Two people come into contact with each other in different lives and in different circumstances. Does the attraction never disappear?
Usually it is so that in the one life you are man and wife but in a previous life your partner was your father or your mother or your uncle or your aunt. It could also have been another form of relation because the circle is very big. You have to understand that in one life you are not always husband and wife. This girl friend of mine in this life for example, was during the war, a young girl who after a bombing raid was trapped under the ruins of a house in Rotterdam. She had an arm wound and came to me at the infirmary where, as a nun, I was working. I attended to her but eventually she was rounded up during a raid and sent by train to Auschwitz. At that time I could do nothing about it. The girl who is now a girl friend of mine was at that time the daughter of another girl friend of mine. I know that the whole family was massacred during the war. A number of the children from that family I now know in my current life as friends. Another girl friend of mine was in a previous life the father of a then girl friend of mine and in this life she doesn’t have any children. She suffers greatly from this because in her previous life she did have a family with children. When she asked me for an explanation for this I could only tell her that it was her karma that had decided it. In her previous life she didn’t succeed in bringing her children to safety and now she must learn to distance them from her family. She is married to a man who has children from a previous marriage. The children that she had in a previous life were all murdered in the concentration camps. My friend was one of them, she had been gassed in Auschwitz. When she was born, in this life, she had pseudo-croup, this was of course a result of the gas-chambers, but I didn’t understand that at the time. During a school outing she had to visit Auschwitz with her class and through this a heavy weight was shed from her shoulders, an emotional burden finally disappeared. In this life she went to study in Rotterdam and there she could also complete a part of her karma. She is steadily clearing up parts of her previous life.
I am using my friend as an example here because there are lots of people who have seen the same thing happen. At some time or other, in a particular place, they get the chance to clear up a number of things out their past and to close another chapter. My friend has gone back to Rotterdam where she had lived before as a Jewess.
If I hear all this, I get the idea that there is some sort of intelligence or mechanism behind it all and that everything has a reason.
I certainly agree with you. Once you understand life whereby you understand why you are here on earth, why you have to experience certain things and why certain things repeat themselves then you can understand why I look back at certain moments in previous lives. Namely, to look for an interpretation and an explanation for specific events in previous lives.
Every experience that we are presented with in our present life is, as it were, the result of a previous life. Does this connection have a goal or a purpose?
Naturally, because in the after-world you have the chance to clean things up. You really get the chance to complete things. If, in a previous life, you murdered 7 women and, in your present life, your married to a woman and you have 6 children, then they are often the women the you murdered. In this life you get the chance to care for them as a family, to protect them. Then you can correct what previously went completely wrong. If you can understand that properly then life flows much smoother. Eventually you understand the essence of the story and life gets easier because you probably have already experienced a couple of lives before. In that way you have already closed off lots and you don’t have to constantly process things. That clearing up can also occur in matters of the heart. It can mean that you learn to be more respectful of your partner or that you see your wife not only as a sexual object. You can’t just take her to bed and then a couple of weeks later just put her aside. As I said earlier, sooner or later it’s going to catch up with you. It could also happen that in a future life this woman will come back as your husband and treat you in such a disrespectful way. She can also degrade you when she has been you senoir in a previous life. How you play the pawns, or how the relationships are, you just have to be respectful in life and with others. In that way you manage to clear up a lot. If you treat other people properly you don’t need to be afraid that you will have to clear up a lot of problems in the next life.
