In Buddhism and Hindusim, both religions believe in reincarnation. When you die you are born into another life. For example, once your time is up one can be reborn into an animal or something else which is living. What are your thoughts on reincarnation.
What cause rebirth?
Well all sentinent beings have the Buddha-nature, thier minds are clouded by ignorance since beginning less time. Ignorance springs Craving (Greed) and Aversion (Hatred), which cause us to be continually greedy for life and its illusory pleasures while hating or rejecting death and other displeasures. Each moment of Ignorance was produced from the preceding moment without a beginning. Although Ignorance has no biginning, it can be eradicated through the attainment of Wisdom in Enlightenment.
Is there proof of Rebirth?
Scientific evidence to support the Buddhist belief in rebirth, it is only after-life theory that has strong supportive evidence. During the last 30 years, parapsychologist have been studying reports that some people have vivid memories of thier former lives.
For example, in England, a 5 year old girl said she could remember her "other Mother and Father" and she talked vividly about what sounded like the events in the life of another person. Parapsychologists were called in and they asked hundreds of questions to which she gave answers. She spoke of living in a particular village in what appeared to be Spain, she gave the name of the village, the name of the street she lived in, her neighbours' names ans details about her everyday life there. She also tearfully spoke of how she had been struck by a car and died of her injuries two days later. When these details were checked, hey found to be accurate. There was a village in Spain with the namethe five year old girl had given. There was a house of the type she had described in the street she had named. WHat is more it was found that a twenty year old women living in the house had been killed in a car accident five years before.
Now how is it possible for five year old girl living in England and who had never been to Spain to know all these details? And of course, this is not the only case of this type.
