Usually but not always. And near death experiences can alter that too. In fact NDE are a fascinating study as well as full blown reincarnation. Equally fascinating are the regressions to between incarnations.
There are some hypnotists that do regressions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reincarnation has a decent writeup on the history. You may find the Biblical comments interesting.
Doctrines of reincarnation were known to the early Church but the
council of Nicea pretty much made the faith politically correct and placed Rome in charge of the "one true faith" and essentially flushed the Greek experience. Odd since Greece was pivotal in the early history and the NT was written in Greek. But then such is the way of politics. Email me if you want expansion. I can give you some facinating resource references.

You should read Sylvia Brown's books. She really gets into talking about reincarnation. She is also on The Montel Williams Show every Wednesday.

It's no longer you. Your memory and personality isn't preserved following your reincarnation. However, the events of your past life are supposedly preserved and inheritly stored within you to be accessed... but it's not YOU, it's someone else who just has the same soul. Or something like that. It's not the same consciousness.

If the in straightforward words thanks to get out of Hades is to drink from the Lethe, you do it. What pastimes me is that if personality could be wiped with memory. In different words, am I going to come back out an similar, merely without understanding of what I did very last time, or will i extremely be a distinct man or woman? Does it remember on how a lot I drink? You under no circumstances recognize with Greek gods- per chance in the adventure that they have a particular destiny for you, they help you come back back inclusive of your recommendations (my recommendations are me-mories, your recommendations are you- mories, with the help of ways). And who can say, per chance there are nonetheless more effective rivers of forgetfulness to style, merely human beings, er, forgot about them. you do not happen to have the names of those different underworld rivers do you? The Styx is yet another, for confident, yet how about the different 3? I imagine that in case your destiny replaced into to reincarnate, no matter if you drink from the Lethe or no longer could also be dictated with the help of that destiny. Hardy says 'personality is destiny'. Now, what if a guy of forgetful nature merely forgot to drink as he exited! He could commence existence back inclusive of his recommendations... yet as he replaced right into a forgetful guy besides, they could no longer be too functional to him...

Reincarnation does not occur. It is not in the Bible. Don't waste your time considering it. It is a lie intended to mislead humans.

I feel that the conscious mind might not recognize them, but your sub-conscious mind does. For me it's kind of like the feeling of de' je vue. You know a person from somewhere, but you just can't remember where. This has happened to me several times.

Yes, basically. But sometimes, you meet people in your past life, and they just seem very familiar.

Why would you want to come back here?
In my opinion we are left behind when people die and I
for one compare earth to hell, so if it is worse in hell I dont'
want anything to do with either the world or hell.

it appears that you do, however, you tend to meet people that you have so much in common with and get along with so readily, that you find you wound up being together with again anyway.
you see, they come back just like you.

There is no such thing...only Heaven or Hell after death. Make the right choice.
