Do you have any personal reason(s) to believe in reincarnation?

Answer 1

I have had a couple experiences along the way....
It just plain makes more sense to me, that the punishment should fit the crime. I just plain can't wrap my mind around the idea that a just and loving God could cast anyone in to a garbage dump for eternity, for making a mistake, no matter what the mistake was, or how bad the "sin" was on a scale of 1 to 10 sinliness I've heard others say here that sin is sin, whether its the murder of 1000's, or an unkind word in a moment of anger. Where is the justice in that?....I also can't comprehend the notion that a just and loving God would offer an eternal reward to anyone that says they believe in His Son and are "saved" no matter how terrible they were to thier neighbors. Many feel that "hell" is a return trip here, until you get yourself together. A truly corrupt spirit will spend eternity here, if that spirit really can't learn and grow enough to ascend, it will just keep coming back time and time again. It's "sins" will continue to weigh it down, and keep it from ascension. As for the rest of the world, we are all humans, we make mistakes, and if we view our lives in discernment, we learn from them as well. There are very few people on the planet that I think could truly be beyond redemption. I believe that the Christ understood the concept of reincarnation, and that his teachings were about transcending the wheel, to save us all an eternity of continually coming back. (but then I read the Bible from a much different point of view from the one that I was taught) If one truly understood what the Christ was saying, truly takes it to heart, and lives it, I think the wheel can be transcended. There were many other great teachers to show us how to transcend the wheel as well, and as near as I can tell, pretty much all of them offered lessons on how to live a "Godly" life here, and that if you live a certain way, and pray, and meditate as well, that your ascension from the wheel would be much quicker... I don't think these ideas are any weirder than what I was brought up with in a traditonal Catholic household...

Answer 2

I personally believe in reincarnation although I cannot prove it. I know one of my lives (although not in any great detail) and had only a very brief recollection of one that I cannot be entirely sure of, but if correct, it took place on what would have been the land bridge between Alaska and Russia over what is now the Bering Sea.

I did have a very brief deja vu moment once, with two people whom I believe I was also reincarnated with, but that incident had no historical marker by which I could grasp to determine place or period.

I realize the vagueness of my answers neither proves nor disproves anything to anyone, but the question asked for personal, not professional, reasons.

Answer 3

Believing in reincarnation seems to go hand in hand with your own personal religious tradition. If it's part of your tradition, you are more likely to believe and may indeed be able to argue that belief based upon personal experiences/reasons. Believing in reincarnation is no less farfetched than many other religious and spiritual beliefs.

As far as personal reasons, absolutely, although I do admit that from a strictly logical viewpoint they could be deemed as "coincidences". However the number of those "coincidences" and the specific nature and effect upon my life has led me to indeed believe in reincarnation. Reincarnation is like any other religious belief - it is based upon faith.

Answer 4

Your questions should be directed to those who studied the
subject. They should be the ones who answer your
question.

Go to the net and seek for answers to this word. I think
you need to spend many years to find out an answer for
yourself to believe in reincarnation or not.

Come on. Study the subject unbiased. If you think
your religion does not accept the concept of reincarnation
and so you stop there, you are the one who loses out.

We should always maintain a scientific way of thinking.
I pity you if you can't do so.

Answer 5

i'm a lifelong believer in reincarnation, and that i bear in mind particularly one in each of my previous lives. And my innovations coach that reincarnation isn't almost people, because of the fact that i replaced into an animal in that existence.

Answer 6

Death is the end of man's earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy which God offers him so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny. When "the single course of our earthly life" is completed,586 we shall not return to other earthly lives: "It is appointed for men to die once."587 There is no "reincarnation" after death.

Answer 8

The number of animals the human race has caused to go into extinction is still on the rise and so is our population growth. If you believe at all in souls, they must come from somewhere.

Answer 9

Yes. I know who I was in a past life. No I'm not going to talk about it so I can become human fodder for rude, unintelligent Yahooligans.

Answer 10

No. Glen Hoddle said it was true and he's a moron so it's most likely not.

"You and I have been physically given two hands and two legs and half-decent brains," he was quoted as saying.

"Some people have not been born like that for a reason. The karma is working from another lifetime."
