There is a scripture that describes the eternal nature of the soul, and the process of reincarnation. I would simply give a link, but knowing that many people ignore the links I'll copy and paste (all are verses from Bhagavad-gita, chapter 2, spoken by Lord Krishna to his devotee Arjuna):

BG 2.11: The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: While speaking learned words, you are mourning for what is not worthy of grief. Those who are wise lament neither for the living nor for the dead.

BG 2.12: Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.

BG 2.13: As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.

BG 2.14: O son of ****ī, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.

BG 2.15: O best among men [Arjuna], the person who is not disturbed by happiness and distress and is steady in both is certainly eligible for liberation.

BG 2.16: Those who are seers of the truth have concluded that of the nonexistent [the material body] there is no endurance and of the eternal [the soul] there is no change. This they have concluded by studying the nature of both.

BG 2.17: That which pervades the entire body you should know to be indestructible. No one is able to destroy that imperishable soul.

BG 2.18: The material body of the indestructible, immeasurable and eternal living entity is sure to come to an end; therefore, fight, O descendant of Bharata.

BG 2.19: Neither he who thinks the living entity the slayer nor he who thinks it slain is in knowledge, for the self slays not nor is slain.

BG 2.20: For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time. He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain.

BG 2.21: O Pārtha, how can a person who knows that the soul is indestructible, eternal, unborn and immutable kill anyone or cause anyone to kill?

BG 2.22: As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones.

BG 2.23: The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind.

BG 2.24: This individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble, and can be neither burned nor dried. He is everlasting, present everywhere, unchangeable, immovable and eternally the same.

BG 2.25: It is said that the soul is invisible, inconceivable and immutable. Knowing this, you should not grieve for the body.

BG 2.26: If, however, you think that the soul [or the symptoms of life] is always born and dies forever, you still have no reason to lament, O mighty-armed.

BG 2.27: One who has taken his birth is sure to die, and after death one is sure to take birth again. Therefore, in the unavoidable discharge of your duty, you should not lament.

BG 2.28: All created beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their interim state, and unmanifest again when annihilated. So what need is there for lamentation?

BG 2.29: Some look on the soul as amazing, some describe him as amazing, and some hear of him as amazing, while others, even after hearing about him, cannot understand him at all.

BG 2.30: O descendant of Bharata, he who dwells in the body can never be slain. Therefore you need not grieve for any living being.

i don't know but i believe so...because i've had a personal experience...

there was a little boy that i used to know and when he was about 2 years old he started talking about how he had to go home to his wife and gave a lot of details on his family life even....things about the wife,what his children did as jobs etc etc.....and how he was murdered by some theives...he even gave the country and specific address.it was a place in bangladesh.we live in sri lanka.

his parents,unknown to him,asked some relatives who lived in bangladesh to find out this place and see if all this information that the boy gave was true.every single thing he had said was true....there is absolutely NO way that he could've got this information from anyone else because he was just 2 years old and was constantly with his mother.

we know these people personally so i know that without a doubt,they haven't done anything fraudulent.of course i understand that anyone who DOESN'T know them personally wouldn't have the same trust in their words that i do,but to sustain my personal belief in that ,this -most importantly -and a lot of other similar experiances i have had,are sufficient

also,this explains a lot of things.for e.g. if a person who has lived a good life without harming anyone,dies a painful death in an accident or a natural disaster,a lot of things are left unanswered as to WHY that would happen to that particular person-----"life is unfair,it just sucks" leaves a gap because there has to be a reason for 2 similarly good people 2 face so very different fates.or in the example of sadist who went around torturing people and died scot free without ever having being caught....i guess it might sound like wishful thinking to many,but i have sufficient evidence to support my PERSONAL belief in this.i wouldn't attempt to convince anyone else though,because that's not possible without hardcore evidence.

Commenting on Star's comment above, the little boy that had a wife and kids in a "previous" life was probably being lead by demons. They tend to do that sometimes to trick gullible people into believing silly things like reincarnation

the entire reincarnation thought is only relatively confusing to have faith because of the fact extra all of us is being born each and all the time and the international's inhabitants is transforming into. yet whilst souls only die and come again, the place are each and all the extra souls coming from? New ones? And are no souls being enlightened and going to Nirvana? It only would not make experience. It additionally ignores what's needed to human beings, what makes them who they're. case in point, in case you're saying, "Bob is not any the different room, and he has misplaced 5 kilos," human beings might say, "stable for him." What in case you pronounced, "Bob is in the different room and guess what? he's a grasshopper." maximum persons might say, "that won't be able to be Bob, because of the fact if there is one ingredient i know approximately him, it relatively is that he's human. he's not a grasshopper." nicely, reincarnation says that i ought to come again as a grasshopper. yet whilst it relatively is genuine, i would not be Bob anymore. i could be a grasshopper. My humanness is a needed component to who i'm. yet one extra reason i do no longer have faith in reincarnation is that the data for it, issues like thoughts of previous lives, could be defined via different ability: psychological motives, or fortunate guesses, or maybe demonic impression. ultimately, if I strengthen right into a reincarnated snail, how do I retrieve a human variety? via being a competent snail? The Bible teaches many times which you and that i'll bypass to Heaven or Hell after our in basic terms existence on the earth, with none reincarnation, "as that's appointed unto adult males as quickly as to die, and after this the judgment" in Hebrews 9:27. in case you particularly need to renowned what Christians have faith on the subject of reincarnation, then right here that's: "in case you have faith in reincarnation, you're no longer believing interior the Bible; in case you have faith the Bible, reincarnation is a contradiction to the Bible, because of the fact it supplies no loving God, no forgiving grace, and robs the Almighty of his characteristic of mercy."

No. We have to go to the Bible for the answer on this.
Because all our knowledge on spiritual matters comes from the Bible.
The condition of the dead?
(Ecclesiastes 9:5-6) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten. 6 Also, their love and their hate and their jealousy have already perished, and they have no portion anymore to time indefinite in anything that has to be done under the sun.

Once we die, nothing happens until we are resurrected.
(Revelation 20:12-13) And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. But another scroll was opened; it is the scroll of life. And the dead were judged out of those things written in the scrolls according to their deeds. 13 And the sea gave up those dead in it, and death and Ha′des gave up those dead in them, and they were judged individually according to their deeds.

Rssurrected back to where?
(Psalm 37:9) For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.

(Psalm 37:11) But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.

There is nothing said about coming back time after time.
