Throughout its history, humanity refuse to believe that death - is a complete end of life, after which there is nothing.People have always cherished the hope that everyone has something that does not die - a substance that continues life after death his earthly body.Such faith, in particular, served as the basis for a number of superstitions and even caused the appearance of some religions.In particular, many believe that after death in another world will be able to meet pochivshimi relatives, friends and loved ones.It is known that ancient Egyptians believed that every person has a "Ka" or the immortal soul, which is responsible for all acts performed in his lifetime.In the other world, or it will suffer a severe punishment, or be rewarded.
Transmigration of souls - this is one of the exercises that are part of the belief in the afterlife.To this day, many wild peoples of Africa and Asia believe that the essence of the deceased person enters the body of a newborn.There are also more exotic kinds of belief in reincarnation.In particular, the belief in the transmigration of the soul into another body is still a living person, as well as an animal, a tree or even a subject.With the development of culture in this doctrine has become the doctrine of retribution (karma).Thus, in the next life, each of us has to get what he "earned" in the previous one.Hindus believe that the good soul can be reborn in the divine form, and evil - in the form of a human or animal.According to the doctrine of karma, all the trouble, sorrow and misery that comprehend anyone - it is a reward for acts that he committed tens and even hundreds of years ago, while in another body.Conversely, good luck and success - it is a reward for good deeds, created in a previous life.Whether a person will be born a prince or pauper, stupid or smart - is destined to advance his actions that he committed long before that.However, in this life, he gets a chance to correct their previous mistakes, if you will do the right thing.
Thus, the process of reincarnation implies that this is already defined past and the future - what is happening at the moment.This doctrine is not unique to Hinduism and Buddhism.Quite often there is a belief in the fact that before the final die, the soul are many animal forms of life.In particular, the Buddhists believe in the so-called "wheel of life".According to this theory, the transmigration of souls is a chain of reincarnations of gods, titans, human beings, animals, and spirits of the inhabitants of hell.Some Greek philosophers shared the belief in the reality of reincarnation.Belief in reincarnation is also reflected in the mystical teachings of Kabbalah.
In general this theory, to put it mildly, not very scientific.Naturally, no one has fixed the transmigration of souls.The facts, however, are such that human vices is largely due to heredity.This is what mainly driven by the main character and quality.Thus, the essence of man, morally and intellectually, in a sense, passed down through the generations.This means that, although the transmigration of souls, and can not be proved, but it is not entirely absurd.After all, this theory definitely does not come into sharp conflict with scientific evidence.
