I met Suchitra aged 36 at her birth village Laxmipur residence through appointment via the First Informant of the Case (FIC) Sudhangshu Biswas. Suchitra, the Subject, was born in Laxmipur village in a north eastern direction in my hometown’s deep outskirt. She is the 4th child of Renu Biswas and Nishikanto Biswas. And she has a younger brother (2 years junior to her) named Gour Biswas who received me at the village after I landed down from the local vehicle. Sudhangshu, the FIC, gave me Gour’s phone number beforehand. And I reached Suchitra’s birth residence.
Suchitra, a married woman, was however yet to arrive there from the village she currently lives at. About 12:30 daytime was the original appointment. And she actually came up practically in time, it was me who was suddenly ‘instructed’ by the FIC to go there in about 1 hour in advance!
This advanced arrival, on my part, made me get accustomed to the place and allowed me to relax my own conscious mind sufficiently before the ‘Scientific’ investigation officially took off. Never before had I seen a Jatiswar (an Indian term for the marathon English phrases such as Person-Who-Remembers-Their-Own-Previous-Life) in my this life, so I was full of emotional wave throughout my body and I perhaps really needed to calm down myself before the ‘professional’ work began.
Initially I had some talk with particularly the Subject’s mother Renu Biswas such as about the Family tree of both the current life and the previous life. Suchitra’s mother seemed ecstatic in describing whatever detail she supplied me that day.
After a while, Suchitra entered into the room where I was attending the other family member(s). At that time, Gour remained silent spectator at the room where I was about to start the 1st Interview of Suchitra. The subject’s mother from then on, came to the room from time to time during the Interview.
Suchitra entered the room in a mainly Blue colored shari (Indian dress). And I introduced myself. The interview eventually began.
The FIC, Sudhangshu would tell me later that he had even arranged beforehand for a permission of Video recording just subject to my appeal/request to Subject’s family there. (He meant that had I ever asked for this, they would have allowed so right away.)
I perhaps subconsciously thought that, had I used such Modern technology (I had had my Smartphone camera to sufficiently do so) in the very 1st meeting, Suchitra’s conscious-mind would not have felt safe and thus relaxed enough to give me significant information. And I ‘forgot’ to ask for the Video permission even though I was originally ecstatic about the application of such technology.
Thus no video, no audio, no regressive-hypnosis and no leading-question being employed by me, she spontaneously lectured with eyes open for about Thirty minutes and delivered a large number of statements about her previous-life (50) and even intermission experience (15).
She spoke so fast that I could not write them as dictation initially, but at the end of the day like a typical final hour at office (about 4 PM to 5 PM, after lunch offered by them to me) I recorded essentially all in writing, albeit with her assistance.
She then even drew a Sketch, to show a locus of the events leading to the previous-life Mamata’s death. I suggested her to do the Drawing at my own Notebook. And she did. (Her younger brother Gour added a little bit to the Sketch later on. Which however was outside the main zone described by Suchitra.)
I also wrote down additional information given by her mother Renu, such as Suchitra’s sharp academic performance in school in this life and even in the previous-life! I noted pointwise chronologically what I listened.
Sudhangshu the FIC, remained absent in this very 1st Session because of his duty in the Kolkata city. I returned home at Kalyani town at evening and cross-checked the day’s experience with Sudhangshu over the phone.
