Reincarnation in America
Author: Lee Irwin
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 1498554083
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 475
Book Description
Reincarnation in America: An Esoteric History surveys the complex history of reincarnation theories across multiple fields of discourse in a pre-American context, ranging from early Greek traditions to Medieval Christian theories, Renaissance esotericism, and European Kabbalah, all of which had adherents that brought those theories to America. Rebirth theories are shown in all these groups to be highly complex and often disjunctive with mainstream religions even though members of conventional religions frequently affirm the possibility of rebirth. As a history of an idea, reincarnation theory is a current, vital belief pattern that cuts across a wide spectrum of social, cultural, and scientific domains in a long, complex history not reducible to any specific religious or theoretical explanation. This book is cross-disciplinary and multicultural, linking religious studies perspectives with science based research; it draws upon many distinct disciplines and avoids reduction of reincarnation to any specific theory. The underlying thesis is to demonstrate the complexity of reincarnation theories; what is unique is the historical overview and the gradual shift away from religious theories of rebirth to new theories that are therapeutic and trans-traditional.

Book Description
This book delves into the natural law that starts off where the Law of Economy of Life i.e. Death must have exhausted itself on a transiting soul.The reader is gradually, but imperceptibly, led into embracing reincarnation as a divine principle that irrefutably serves to prove the existence of God, to substantiate His perfect character, and exonerate Him from the injustice of partiality.The utility value of a deep understanding of this Law of Reincarnation as it affects the interpersonal life of the earthly men is such that every human will eventually tend to relate with every other human out of duty, to the best of his humour, love and care, towards an ever-lasting universal brotherhood, peace and harmony.

Reincarnation
Author: Rev. Irving Cooper
Publisher: Book Tree
ISBN: 1585092959
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
Reincarnation is the idea and some would say fact that after we die we return and live other lives. The reason for this cycle is that the world offers us the chance to grow and learn based on the many physical challenges it offers. When we have learned and progressed enough, through numerous lives, there will be no more need to return. This book covers the various cultures that accept the idea, and what it really means to us, as individuals. Those who are steeped in pure logic reject the idea due to the lack of strong scientific evidence. They fail to realize that one cannot present spiritual proofs in a laboratory. Matter itself and the material world can show physical evidence but spirit and matter are two separate things. So where is the proof for reincarnation? One good answer, and a great starting point, is to open this book. Spiritual proof exists for those who can comprehend it.
