Reflections on Reincarnation

Daniel Pinchbeck’s Newsletter • 16 implied HN points • 01 Mar 24
⛪ Faith & Spirituality Consciousness Quantum physics
  1. The concept of reincarnation can be explored through the lens of quantum physics, suggesting that patterns of thinking, feeling, and action persist beyond physical death in a timeless domain.
  2. According to materialism, the individual subjective identity is considered accidental and inexplicable, contrasting with the idea of subjective interiority being an essential aspect of existence.
  3. Physicist Amit Goswami's theory proposes that quantum aggregates formed by our thoughts and actions remain connected after death, serving as a karmic vehicle for the 'soul' to seek completion and resolution through physical embodiment.
