PSYCHED UP
As a soldier during World
War II, Lewis found the an-
swers to some of those ques-
tions. Numerous times he
watched as men marching in
front of and behind him were
killed; Lewis was always
spared. Taken to a German
prison camp, he managed to
convince the head officer he
was not Jewish, escaping
death.
While at the prison camp,
Lewis joined his fellow
American soldiers in daily
renditions of the song "Come
and Get Us, Georgie Patton"
and in concocting delicious
menus they would one day
feast on. In one dream he
saw his mother and assured
her of his safety.
One day, Lewis stood on a
knoll and saw himself ask-
ing the Four Questions at
the Passover Seder. A vision
of his father came to him, as
well as that of the man in
the long, blue robe.
Lewis says he was in "a
state of ecstasy."
The man in the blue robe
said, "What do you want to
know?"
Lewis asked "Why
Hitler?"
"Out of chaos is growth,"
the voice responded. He told
Lewis that one's body was
used to manifest the self in
this world, and that those
who had "not graduated"
would return.
He told Lewis "your foot is
on the path. You're going to
learn a great deal" and
assured him he would be lib-
erated in one week and ar-
rive back in the United
States on April 28.
Seven days later, Ameri-
can forces arrived. Weighing
85 pounds, Lewis boarded a
ship for New York. The pas-
sengers landed April 28.
Lewis remembered his
dream in the prison camp.
This experience taught him
that "love is the greatest
strength and rapport" and
that "communication is
through mind and spirit."
Today, Lewis uses hyp-
nosis to help clients com-
municate with their past
selves, which he says often
solves many problems in the
process.
Approached by a woman
terrified of worms, Lewis
hypnotized her to a previous
life.
She was 14, miming to a
field. A snake bit her on the
ankle.
"I'm dead," she said.
Floating above, she watched
her body, "Now I just broke
through something and I'm
in another world."
She saw a bridge, animals
and a man holding an
hourglass with the sand
running upward. "We con-
trol time over here," he said.
Five days later, the woman
called Lewis. "I'm standing
next to my husband," she
said. "I've got five worms in
the palm of my hand."
Lewis, who also uses
hypnosis to help those trying
to lose weight or quit smok-
ing, believes that in his own
past lives he was a teacher
and a rabbi.
He advises those seeking
their former selves to pro-
gram their dreams before go-
ing to sleep. For several
nights in a row, one should
request a past-life experi-
ence. These experiences will
soon find their way into
one's dreams. Lewis recom-
mends writing dreams down
in a diary.
Ina and Amy Sky and
their cat, Choshech:
"If we believe we are
God-like souls then we
can never die!'
Lewis recounts his own
experience through meeting
family members who were
"in spirit." Last October, he
attended a meeting hosted
by a medium from the
Psychic College in London.
Lewis says a medium serves
as "a telephone between two
worlds."
Before the performance,
Lewis contacted his late
father and brother, telling
them, "Are you in spirit? If
so, be the first to talk to this
woman."
The medium took center
stage. "I'm being annoyed
by two gentlemen," she an-
nounced. She then mention-
ed the names of Lewis'
brother and father, "and this
