Summary
Updated 2026-07-22

Tata Devi, also known as Lugdi Devi in her alleged past life, was an Indian woman who claimed to remember her previous life and eventually became the subject of reincarnation research. A commission set up by the Indian political leader Mahatma Gandhi supported her claim, while another report by researcher Bal Chand Nahata disputed it. Subsequently, several other researchers interviewed her, and published articles and books about her.
