How do you reconcile the recollection of past lives with modern science?

Post Body

With memories being able to be mapped to very specific areas of the brain, as well as the possibility for false memories or suggested memories, how can does remembering past lives work?

I find the concept of rebirth as a whole quite likely and it fits with both my meditative experiences and the holes in modern science, but I struggle with this notion of being able to recall them.

As his holiness has said: if science proves something in Buddhism wrong, Buddhism has to change. Of course at the end of the day all this stuff is semantics and it’s the problem
