Reincarnation

From day one  we are  using our senses, we are given a name ( sound ) and  given  toys and things to play with  ( touch and sight ) , food and  milk  ( Taste )  as  far as  smell is  concerned  when  this  kicks in  am unsure  but it  is safe to say  it  isn't  far behind the rest of these  so what has  sense perception have to do with  reincarnation  you  may  be asking yourself ? Because without these   senses  you would be in a comatose  void  .  They are the tools we use   for  our journey on this plane of existence ,  Another  thing  to observe  is the  cycles of nature you  can see it  everywhere  how all things  cycle  ( seasons , cells , days and  nights, waking and sleeping, animals, people even on a geological scale it  cycles although at  such  a  slower rate even  galaxies  die and  are  born ) then now  from the sensual  we  come to the  mind  or  perception  we start  to absorb  our surroundings and the family we are born into...
Now we need to ask ourselves are these circumstances fair  or  justified ? , is  it  chance that  one person   gets  born into a  wealthy family in a prosperous nation   while another is  born into  starvation and suffering  in a drought ravaged  3rd world country? , these are  questions that many people ask  themselves and  more from the latter than the former .
Origins Of Reincarnation : It is said that the origins of reincarnation  is 6th century B.C by indian Brahmins (source is wikipedia) but i honestly challenge this  and beleive that  the egyptian empire was  the earliest  empire they respected death almost to the point  to devotional fear it was accepted and to this day  remain the most pious race in the short history of mankind.
Afterlife was their main concern with   tomb scenes depicting the heart of the deceased weighed on the scales against the  feather of truth  ( i  think this is the heaven hell principle in its earliest form ) with each account written down  by Thoth - Hermes (to be continued)
