Reincarnation is change



Reincarnation is change.
.
Whether in the domain of mind
.
Or of natural objects. 
.
Or of human progress in civilisation.
.
The great law governing all is change. 
.
Everything is changing.
.
The old into the new. 
.
The past into the present. 
.
This procession of change is evolution.
.
And in reality reincarnation and evolution are the same thing. 
.
The doctrine of reincarnation is that each man is a living, immortal soul. 
.
That, as Walt Whitman the poet, says, he has "died ten thousand times before."
.
That being immortal he must have been always immortal. 
.
That he has lived before .
.
And that he comes to earth again and again in new bodies. 
.
For the purpose of experience and development.
.
These words are from William Judge who knew more than most about these things.
.
For modern Western man these ideas are not fashionable nor commonly known.
.
They are however the truth of how things work.
.
So for those of you reading ponder these words and how they relate to your understanding.
.
Life can be very different when you do.
.
Absolutely your choice as to what you choose to believe.
.
You do though owe it to yourself to decide what you are here for.
.
And once you find that then other aspects of your life fall into place.
..
Reincarnation is the only way in which sense can be made of some of the madness going on around us on this planet.
.
And once we can understand why that is so then we can focus on our own journey with equanimnity and peace of mind.
.
Because we can now live in that changed understanding.
.
A life with less stress.
.
A life more conscious about how things work.
