Reincarnation and the Law of Karma

Does the soul survive death? Do our existences follow one another in time? Can we access knowledge and memories acquired in previous lives? The author answers these and other questions, explaining how reincarnation is a fundamental principle of human existence. He traces the evolution of theories regarding rebirths from Egyptian thought on the path of the soul, to Plato's teachings on the spirit, to the theories of modern schools of esotericism on eternal life.
