Reincarnation is rebirth. In other words, the human soul, having left its physical body, moves into another physical body of a person or animal and lives there until its next reincarnation. It is believed that such a rebirth is a symbol of justice, since, according to karmic laws, in each new life, the spiritual essence of a person receives exactly as much as he deserves during his earthly life.

Step 1
Few people want to believe that after his earthly life he will simply disappear from the face of the earth, go into oblivion. That is why humanity once invented religion and various philosophical teachings dedicated to the spiritual life of a person and promoting the idea of the immortality of souls after the earthly death of the body. One of these ideas is the statement about the transmigration of the soul, or reincarnation. In simple terms, reincarnation is nothing more than repeated births and deaths, constantly replacing each other. Philosophically, this can be characterized as cyclical reincarnations from one life to another.
Step 2
According to some spiritual teachings, the life of a person before the reincarnation of his soul plays an important role in this mystical-fantastic cycle. The fact is that when the physical body of a person dies, some subtle matter remains. Presumably, it is she who is consciousness, reason. It is believed that this subtle essence preserves the entire volume of thoughts, beliefs, feelings and ideas accumulated by a person during his entire previous earthly life. It is she, according to spiritual teachings, that is the thread that connects the facets of a person's past and future lives: the way a person lived his previous existence sets the rhythm for his subsequent births and lives.
Step 3
Many religious teachings promoting the idea of reincarnation of the soul cannot yet determine whether reincarnation is an eternal process. This is understandable. On the one hand, we can assume that somewhere there is a happy end to rebirth, because no matter how tight the rope twists, there will be an end. But on the other hand, it would be an ideal state of the highest form of development, which is impossible to imagine. Perhaps humanity has simply not yet reached the highest level of its enlightenment, which would allow it to realize this scenario.
Step 4
It is curious that not only religion, but also official science became interested in the idea of soul reincarnation. For example, the idea of transmigration of souls is reflected in the so-called transpersonal psychology. Psychologist Carl Jung describes his ideas about the collective unconscious. In principle, reincarnation, as a term, fully meets these scientific ideas, since rebirth is a kind of accumulation of deep images in the human unconscious. These images are passed down from generation to generation, and possibly from past lives to future ones. Science generally finds it difficult to refute the idea of the immortality of the soul, since the facts of people remembering their past lives take place: some people provide information that they could not get from outside sources.
