REINCARNATION IN MORE DETAIL


© Denise Lima

One of the mysteries in life is life after death. Just what does happen when we die? Where do we go? Is this life all there is? These types of questions have plagued mankind for centuries. Religions of yesterday and today have tried to explain what happens to the spirit after the death of the physical body. Over the centuries there have been many theories as to what occurs to the soul when the body dies.

One such belief is called reincarnation. In different cultures this belief has gone on for thousands of years. Of course, each culture has its own version of it. In today’s modern population the belief of reincarnation is accepted by approximately 2/3 of the world’s population.

In Harper’s Encyclopedia of Mystical and Paranormal Experience it sates that reincarnation is “The return of the soul or essence after death to inhabit a new physical form.” Reincarnation is also in our every day vocabulary. According to Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary of 1988 reincarnation is “rebirth in new bodies or forms of life. A rebirth of a soul in a new human body.”

This article will attempt to explain and clarify the theory of reincarnation while mentioning soul mates and Karma and how it applies to reincarnation.

In previous articles we have discussed the theory of Karma in the article entitled “Karma a Lesson in Learning”. Also the concept of Soul mates was discussed in the article entitled “Soul mates What Are They?” These articles briefly touched on the subject of reincarnation.

First of all what you need to understand is that reincarnation is an ongoing process. When the soul decides to incarnate into this life it is for the sole purpose of learning. Within this life time we live, learn, love and may or will possibly make mistakes. When we make choices in that life time we create Karma and meet a variety of soul mates which are the individuals or group of individuals that incarnate during that life time. When this individual passes the soul returns to the spirit realm where it will continue to grown, take on new tasks and examine its life on the earthly plane.

Over time this individual may decide to incarnate in another life time. During this life time this individual will live his/her life building relationships with soul mates and balancing their Karma or creating new ones. Before incarnating in their current life the soul sees a blueprint of what this life will be like. If this life time benefits him or her he/she may choose to incarnate in to it or not incarnate into it. If he chooses not to live this life time then the spirit needs to look for another physical form to inhabit in order to accomplish its new lessons.
