Reincarnation: How many times does the soul exist so that it acquires new knowledge?

Question

Does this experience ever end and do you keep on dying only to be reincarnated again? What would be the purpose and why can you be man/woman, animal or something of nature (e.g, tree)?
I know I can read a book but it is a little confusing to understand. I read something about reaching a full inheritance. Would this be the end?

Answer 1

Sorry honey,one time is all we get.
Good or bad,it matters not.
You must know Jesus as your savior.<><

Answer 2

I would say each soul's experience will be different. There is no set number of times. Each time a soul enjoys (or not) an incarnation on this earth it learns (or doesn't) new things. Over lifetimes it will grow and learn to point where it reaches karmic balance. It will again be one with "God" (or whatever you want to call the Ultimate Source) and will not need to be reincarnated again. Take the word 'learn" lightly. The soul doesn't learn the way our physical brains do. And you won't know what lessons you are learning while you are still in the physical form. But your soul does.

I'm not sure what you mean by full inheritance but I'm guessing that is when the balance is reached.

There are ways through meditation to connect with the soul on a deeper level and gain some insight. But that's a whole other topic.

Many different cultures have different views on reincarnation so it's tough when I don't know which view you are reading about. For instance some cultures believe you can come back as an animal and some believe you were never or can never be an animal and other believe you progress up from the smallest single celled organism up to your current state as a human.

Oh and of course there are the cultures and religions that don't believe in it at all. But I'm sure you already know that by many of the future answers people will leave for you here.

Keep reading. Good luck

In my heart of heart I believe God created the world in 7 days and rest that mean us and all the babies that is ready to be born into this world I read the book of Jeremiah it said before you was born I knew you. Does that mean we was already here in the spirit world just waiting to be born into this world believe so.Jeremiah 1:5,Jeremiah 29:11 ,Psalm 139:13-18

Answer 4

Reincarnation is a lie, and a false teaching. The Word of God says that it is appointed to men once to die, and after that the judgement.
If you do not like that answer, ask someone into wicca. They can give you a false belief in reincarnation to make you feel better.

Answer 5

The living entity, thus taking another gross body, obtains a certain type of ear, eye, tongue, nose and sense of touch, which are grouped about the mind. He thus enjoys a particular set of sense objects.
PURPORT
In other words, if the living entity adulterates his consciousness with the qualities of cats and dogs, in his next life he gets a cat or dog body and enjoys. Consciousness is originally pure, like water. But if we mix water with a certain color, it changes. Similarly, consciousness is pure, for the spirit soul is pure. But consciousness is changed according to the association of the material qualities. Real consciousness is Krishna consciousness. When, therefore, one is situated in Krishna consciousness, he is in his pure life. But if his consciousness is adulterated by some type of material mentality, in the next life he gets a corresponding body. He does not necessarily get a human body again; he can get the body of a cat, dog, hog, demigod or one of many other forms, for there are 8,400,000 species.

The foolish cannot understand how a living entity can quit his body, nor can they understand what sort of body he enjoys under the spell of the modes of nature. But one whose eyes are trained in knowledge can see all this.
PURPORT
The word jïäna-caksusah is very significant. Without knowledge, one cannot understand how a living entity leaves his present body, nor what form of body he is going to take in the next life, nor even why he is living in a particular type of body. This requires a great amount of knowledge understood from Bhagavad-gitä and similar literatures heard from a bona fide spiritual master. One who is trained to perceive all these things is fortunate. Every living entity is quitting his body under certain circumstances, he is living under certain circumstances, and he is enjoying under certain circumstances under the spell of material nature. As a result, he is suffering different kinds of happiness and distress, under the illusion of sense enjoyment. Persons who are everlastingly fooled by lust and desire lose all power to understand their change of body and their stay in a particular body. They cannot comprehend it. Those who have developed spiritual knowledge, however, can see that the spirit is different from the body and is changing its body and enjoying in different ways. A person in such knowledge can understand how the conditioned living entity is suffering in this material existence. Therefore those who are highly developed in Krishna consciousness try their best to give this knowledge to the people in general, for their conditional life is very much troublesome. They should come out of it and be Krishna conscious and liberate themselves to transfer to the spiritual world.
