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)
