A biologically scientific case can be made for a form of reincarnation in the fact that there is a continuous life passed from generation to generation of all animate organisms. Present and future generations are direct, physically continuous descendents of past generations (going as far back as the biological history of the individual goes back - even much further than the species of being ‘human’); where the individual procreates self in a process of regeneration; also presenting a case for genetic memory and certain, qualified episodes of what is colloquially referred to as ‘deja vu’.

Everyone has in fact lived many other lives. All living things have in fact lived many other lives in order to be experiencing the present life. Procreation isn’t exactly reincarnation (when the ‘soul’ acquires a new body), but procreation certainly seems to approximate reincarnation.

Thanks RP.life is continuous and eternal,evolution is its way of expanding the ability to
respond to stimuli,to express more and more of the life principle,until one like us reaches
a point of self-aware consciousness,from then on,one can begin to expand at a more rapid rate.and become a willing conscious participator in the evolutionary journey of realization.

The implication of reincarnation is that life is eternal,and that we need to get our act together,stop "kicking against the pricks",accept the reality you are part of,and cooperate
with the reality of un-fold-ment.

The plurality of 'us' are meditating on the Tibetan tradition of the Dalai Lama.
We'll get back to you on this, Michael.

I think the implication would be positive. If I knew for sure I was coming back, I obviously would have a more vested interest in keeping the Earth pure and clean.

Right now my interest is in my children and grandchild, and the Earth they are inheriting.

OOOMMMMMMM!

Hey Mike!

If indeed reincarnation - per se - is the way of immortality - per se, it seems our memories of past lives generally prove out to be sketchy (when any such memories are accessible to us at all...).
As Tibetan Buddhism has it, in my understanding, eventually you dismount the 'wheel of karma' and remain in a state of bliss (nirvana).

Do you think it possible that a reincarnated person (in the temporal world we live in) could have a complete memory of a past life - or all past lives? Are there any such people that you may have some knowledge of or information on?

Yes I do Rascal,indeed there are many throughout this world who remember past lives
I remember one of mine in particular,not fully,but enough to satisfy me,if you are interested I will say more,but through a private message rather than the open forum.
