"Of all ideas generally regarded as having no place in Western thought, reincarnation is the most frequently asked about--it keeps arising in people's thinking by what seems to be a spontaneous curiosity. It emerges as a frequent theme in play and novel. Psychologists write theses on reincarnation. Books on the possibilities of many lives are authored by clergymen. A team of psychiatrists is currently investigating cases of supposed remembrance of former existences. Reincarnation is definitely 'in the air.' But how many individuals have informed views as to what reincarnation really means? Who is aware of the long history behind the idea in Western civilization? Reincarnation in World Thought explores what great thinkers through the ages have said on the subject. It examines what the world's religions, philosophies and sciences have contributed and are contributing to the discussion. Searching out the roots of the concept, it endeavors to discover whether reincarnation is simply the dream of wishful thinking, or possibly a universal lawful process beyond all creeds and dogmas. Both assenters and dissenters to the theory find space in these pages, Opening with introductory essays on reincarnation by four distinguished educators, the volume is intriguingly arranged in six parts: I. Reincarnation in Myth and Symbol; II. Reincarnation in the World's Religions; III. Reincarnation in Theosophy and Masonry; IV. Reincarnation Among Peoples of the World (African, American Indian, etc.); V. Western Thinkers on Reincarnation--the largest section of the book. VI. Scientists, Psychologists and Philosophers on Reincarnation."--front flap.

For anyone interested in what happens after death, this is a definitive guide to the concept of rebirth, or reincarnation, in Buddhism. Reincarnation has been a popular belief in cultures throughout the world for many millennia. The possibility that we lived before and may be born again, whether as a human or in some other form of existence, continues to fascinate us and features heavily in popular novels and movies, and also as a subject of recent scholarly studies. Although Buddhism is one of the religious traditions best known for asserting rebirth, the history and scope of Buddhist approaches to the idea has not received comprehensive treatment—until now. This first-ever guide to ideas and practices surrounding rebirth in Buddhism covers the historical context for the Buddha’s teachings on the topic, explains what Buddhists believe is actually reborn and where, surveys rebirth-related practices in multiple Buddhist cultures, and considers whether all Buddhist traditions agree about what happens after death. The book also addresses interpretations of rebirth in modern Buddhist contexts and recent scientific attempts to document reincarnation in conversation with Buddhist beliefs It is, in short, the first truly comprehensive overview of rebirth across the major Buddhist traditions, written by a leading scholar and teacher of Buddhism.

With Karma and Rebirth: A Cross Cultural Study on the very first comparison of rebirth concepts across a wide range of cultures. Exploring in rich detail the beliefs of small scale indigenous societies of West Africa, Melanesia, and North America, Obeyesekere compares their ideas with those of the ancient and modern Indic civilizations and with the Greek rebirth theories of Pythagoras, Empedocles, Pindar and Plato. His groundbreaking and authoritiative discussion decenters the popular notion that India was the origin and locus of ideas of rebirth.

Rebirth and the Stream of Life explores the diversity as well as the ethical and religious significance of rebirth beliefs, focusing especially on Hindu and Buddhist traditions but also discussing indigenous religions and ancient Greek thought. Utilizing resources from religious studies, anthropology and theology, an expanded conception of philosophy of religion is exemplified, which takes seriously lived experience rather than treating religious beliefs in isolation from their place in believers' lives. Drawing upon his expertise in interdisciplinary working and Wittgenstein-influenced approaches, Mikel Burley examines several interrelated phenomena, including purported past-life memories, the relationship between metaphysics and ethics, efforts to 'demythologize' rebirth, and moral critiques of the doctrine of karma. This range of topics, with rebirth as a unifying theme, makes the book of value to anyone interested in philosophy, the study of religions, and what it means to believe that we undergo multiple lives.

Does the soul survive death? Are we reborn again and again, and can we access the knowledge and the memories acquired in earlier lives? Followers of New Thought, the early-20th-century “New Age” philosophy, believed so, and here, in Reincarnation and the Law of Karma, William Walker Atkinson, one of the most influential New Thought voices, explores the concept of reincarnation throughout history, from the Egyptian idea of the soul through Plato's teachings on the subject and on to modern spiritual outlooks on eternal life. Originally published in 1908 , it remains a fascinating and insightful document on the theory of rebirth and the principles of spiritual cause and effect. With arguments and proofs supporting the idea that the soul is a “traveler on a long journey,” Atkinson covers ancient races, Egyptians, Jews, Romans, Hindus, the modern West, justification for reincarnation, proofs of reincarnation, arguments against reincarnation, and karma. This is a fascinating and immensely readable look at a question that has haunted humanity since antiquity.Cover photography by Paul Spremulli.
