Re: Reincarnation

[ Edited ]

I can't speak to this story (and why people who make the news tend to be reincarnated as someone famous, *eyeroll*), but I have read quite a few stories over the decades that can't really be explained, and I would not say I don't believe in reincarnation.

 

I do not subscribe to any belief system that prevents or dissuades me from believing in reincarnation. I would tend to believe more in karma and reincarnation than any other belief system, because it makes sense/is logical to me.

 

AFAIC, it's either karma and reincarnation or one and done, that's all she wrote. But I won't know until...

I don't believe in reincarnation myself.  Just thought it would make for interesting conversation.

I don't see what belief has to do with it. It's either real or it's not. Belief is generally a word people use when they can't prove something that think is true. Belief isn't really in my vocabulary. Except when dealing with little kids who make up their own truth, even when evidence to the contrary is staring you in the face. IE the kid with crumbs all over their clothes that claims they didn't eat the cookies.

Not sure where I stand regarding "reincarnation."  Especially after reading years ago how the "Dalai Lama(s)" are found, tested & picked. Smiley Surprised faint.gif

 

Something that makes you say hmmmm....

I wonder if Shirley MacLaine still believes it.  She claims she has had many prior lives.

I've always been fascinated by reincarnation.  Does anyone here remember The Search For Bridey Murphy?

 

And then there was an American woman who remembered a past life in Ireland, details, details, went to Ireland and remembered the route to her old home and is said to have found her youngest child there, at that time quite elderly.

If you're not kidding . . . can you tell us who you were in your former life?
