Inexplicable irruptions.Xenoglossy, ‘speaking in tongues’, a phenomenon considered by some to offer evidence for reincarnation, is not widely discussed — because not widely accepted — in the scientific literature.

大門 正幸, 稲垣 勝巳, 末武 信宏, 岡本 聡 「退行催眠時に生じる異言とそれが示唆するもの(第29回生命情報科学シンポジウム」 (OHKADO Masayuki, INAGAKI Katsumi, SUETAKE Nobuhiro, and OKAMOTO Satoshi. On Xenoglossy Occurring in Hypnosis and What It Suggests (The 29th Symposium on Life Information Science).) Journal of International Society of Life Information Science 28 (1), 128–139, 2010.
