What belief, do you think, was shared by Walt Whitman, Albert Schweitzer, Socrates, Voltaire, Carl Jung and Pythagoras, not to mention Wordsworth, Tolstoy, Gandhi, George Harrison, General George S. Patton, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Mark Twain?
On the same subject, Benjamin Franklin said:
“I look upon death to be as necessary to the constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning.”
And Jack London, author of CALL OF THE WILD, maintained:
“I did not begin when I was born, nor when I was conceived. I have been growing, developing, through incalculable myriads of millenniums. All my previous selves have their voices, echoes, promptings in me. Oh, incalculable times again shall I be born.”
Napoleon not only believed in reincarnation, but liked to tell his generals who he believed he had been in previous existences.
Let the last word, for now, go to Henry Ford, who said:
“I adopted the theory of reincarnation when I was 26. Genius is experience. Some seem to think that it is a gift or talent, but it is the fruit of long experience in many lives.”
So, do you believe as they do, that we live many lives – reincarnating again and again - rather than just one?
