past me

Any version of yourself in the past.

"I found a twenty in my back pocket, thanks past me!" "I'm so glad past me took a cab here knowing I would be too drunk to drive home." "Good thing past me packed all these warm clothes!"

Merged Past-life Memories Syndrome (MPLMS)

A condition, in which someone accidentally mixes past-life memories from separate past-lives into a memory from one past-life.

'Like many reincarnated people, I think that I had a bad case of merged past-life memories syndrome (MPLMS): I was confused that my past-life memories from my past-life as a muse were from my past-life as a mermaid, until I figured that these memories were from separate past-lives.'

Hard Problem of Past Life Memories

Zooming in further: if these are genuine memories, where and in what form were they stored between biological deaths? What is the medium of this storage? If consciousness is a product of the brain, it dies with it. If it's non-local, how does it interface with a new, distinct brain to produce specific, sensorimotor recollections? The problem isn't just proving they exist, but explaining the how in a way that doesn't break known neuroscience.

Example: "The boy's vivid 'memory' of dying as a pilot involved the specific smell of burning engine oil. The hard problem of past life memories: even if we accept a soul, how does a non-physical entity 'remember' a purely physical sensation like smell, and then encode that memory into the new, different neural architecture of a toddler's brain?"
